In which Column VIII YOu Stand?
WILL YOU CHOOSE YOUR OWN OR THE NEGRO
RACE?

On next Tuesday every one will be called
take his position. Oneis composed of white
men almost exclusively, and the other of
negroes and white men, the latter chiefly
office-holders and Office seekers, who have
the negroes to do the voting whilst they
hold the off1ces-the negroes hold the COW
whilst they milk her. In one column you
find nearly all white men; in the other,
about four negroes to one white man.
Which is the column that white men should
join? Can any hesitate about a choice?
You must stand in one OF the other. Will
you choose your own or the negro race :?
You can choose for yourself; the choice is
free, ''with none to modest or make you
afraid" for there shall be a 'free ballot
and fair count" Will you stand in the
column touching elbows right and left with
men Of your own race, "kith and kim" or
will you take your position in the column
in which each white man has two negroes
on either side separating him from the next
white man in the ranks Of that motley host?
'Iook first upon this picture. and then
upon that, y and make your choice. ''Birds
of feather will flock together" Will you
''hock' with the black-birds? If you are
black-bird or cormorant, you can roost
on the Coalition perch, where such birds
edo most congregate." The black birds
secure the food upon which the greedy cor
morants subsist.

Unite, Vote Together, and Save the
State.

This is time when every man who wears
white skin should vote for the Democrat
ic party, and do all he can to save the State
from the untold and unimagined evils that
Mahoneism or one-man-power would bring
upon it. There is now no cause of division,
the debt question being no longer an issue.
The debt question is settled, and, as the
Norfolk Landmark says, that ''can no more
be revived than well can be pulled up
and accepted as the settlement Of that ques-
ton is, there is no cause Of disagreement
between white men.
With this once exasperating question as
dead as Hector there is no impeachment in
our march to the polls, and we call on the
sound and solid men of the counties to
unite with their brethren of the town in
making the 9th of November the DAY OF
JUDGMENT for General Malone.
The issue now made up involves all that
is dear to us in the shape of honest govern
ment, and any candid man in the country
will admit that he has seen things done by
Mahone's partisans and Mahone's office
holders, from Judges on the Bench down
to constables, which eight years ago would
have been deemed impossible.
These wrongs. corruptions, and outrages
are nothing to what may be expected should
our Virginia Wallenstein carry this election.
The last check of public opinion will be
broken, and the passions, and cupidity, and
lust of Office of his motley horde will be the
only guide to the bad men who aspire to
reduce the white masses of this State to alb
ject bondage.
The power to avert so dire d calamity
rests with the people of the counties Of Vir-
ginia, and we call upon them by their ira
ditions, by present. interest, and by their
hopes Of the future to go to work and do
their duty from now until the setting Of the
sun on the 9th day of next November.
There are occasions in the history Of eve
ry struggle, whether on the battlefield, or
in civil contests, when it is vital matter
| to have more men at given point than the
enemy can bring to bear on it, and that
point, oh, countrymen and Virginians, in
this conflict, is at the place Of voting.
We, the Democrats, and anti-Mahone
men of the Commonwealth have the num-
bers to win the battle.
| The fruits Of victory will be good govern
ment for us and for all.
| The fruits of defeat will be the fruits of
the Upas tree of Mahoneism, and we call
upon our brethren in the country to unfurl
their flags; to give them to the winds; and
Invoking the aid Of ALMIGHTY GoDl to
march shoulder to shoulder to the polls in
order to strike down the one-man-power
and to save the state p

LOST CHARLIE Ross Mr.. Christian K.
Ross, the father of Charlie Ross, recently
visited man named Charles Donnelly,
confined In the Jail at Edwardsville, H.,
who had stated to detective that he knew
Of the whereabouts of the missing boy.
Donnelly, VIXEN promised pardon if he
would revea! the boys whereabouts, replied
that he could not give any information with

ly,'' and that his freedom for only one year
could not be weighed against the chance of

He promised when his term had expired to
do all in his power to help Mrs Ross find
his son.
J. G. Baird, the prosecuting attorney of
Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory, who is now

Mosher begged that his life ahould be spar

give the world information for which it
had been seeking for years past. He adj
mitted having had in custody person held

said he had been driven to the far West by
the hot pursuit OF detectives. The time
was not allowed him and he died with the
secret.
