''These people are either ashamed to let

are too cowardly to let the Republicans
know they are Democrats. When question
ed upon the stump as to how they will vote
in 1884, they are as dumb as oysters. What
right have such men to ask the vote of free,

THE BAsB BALL GAME.-Quite large num-
Der Of persons. including many ladies, assem-
bled at the Fair Grounds last Thursday even
ing, to witness the match between the Virgin
las and Stauntons of our city. The game was
well played and quite an interesting one until
the fourth inning, when, by some bad playing
on the part Of the home nine, tina Vilginias
succeeded in scoring some ten or eleven runs
when the game was utterly hopeless. OuI
boys, however, did some fine playing in the
following innings, and frequently received the
plaadits of the crowd. The score at the end Of
the nine innings stood: Virginias 10, Staun-
tons l.
The Stauntons are an excellent amateur club
but they cannot cope with trained and prac-
ticed professional club like the Virginias. The
latter club is composed of fine-looking men
and their play shows the result of science and
continual practice. After seeing them play, il
seems to us creditable that the Stauntons Sc
cured even one run.

We say, and contradiction cannot be sue
eessfully made:
First. That the Democrats of Virginia

Second. That they are the friends Of pub

the children ofthe State.
Third. That theyfare fully as anxious.

way, for legitimate immigration, as any
others.
Fourth. And including all that can fair
ly be expected of any people, that they have
entirely forgotten the animosities which ma,
turally grew out Of the civil war. They4
may refuse to trade on their position in this
respect, but they have title to it all the

CoRDER.'-If all papers were like the Highland
Recorder the people, unless they learned it from
some other source, would not know that there
had recently been elections in Ohio and Iowa,
and that the most Important canvass that was
ever made in this State is now going on. The
last issue of the Recorder, dated Saturday, has
nota word to say about the important elections
which occurred on last Tuesday in Ohio and
Iowa, and not a word about the canvass in
Virginia, not even a word about the canvass in
its own gallant little county CT Highland.
Why is this? Did not the news of the glorious
Democratic victory in Ohio, and Of the great
democratic gains il Iowa, reach Highland be-
fore the Recorder was issued, ard will theirs
not be an election in that county on the 9Th of
next month? Do the people there feel no in
terest in these important events, Or is IL only
that the editors If that paper are so wholly in
different? Do the editors of that journal re-
ioice at the great Democratic vistoYies that
will occur in Virginia next month, and
throughout the Union next year? Does it re-
joice with those who now rejoice, or mourn
with those who now mourn at the result in
Ohio? We feel sure that the free. born liberty
loving, patriotic citizens of that noble little
county are making their valleys and native
and that they viii feel encouraged to renew
their efforts to break the yoke of a despicable
8ossism that would make them slaves.
