The plan OF the Democratic primary

as near as possible to an election held by

Our Hanover friends must look sharp
for fraudulent transfer OF negroes from
Richmond to their county. Their votes
can do the party no service in Rich

Hanover would do Jones great deal Of
good. BY communicating with our pre-

can be closely watched.

MAXWELL L. CLARKE,
Chairman.

The Clerk rcada from Ma
ior r. L. Blankenship, IN which the Major
took occasion to say that while in the main
Colonel Ruflin was right, he had embarked
in ga sea Ct errors" in regard to iron
matters and material.
DIR. Cabell moved to strike out the
"SI50" named i'm the resolution.
Mr.. Glasgow favored the sending OF Col
onel Rullin alone, thinking the sending OF
committee would fail TO accomplish the
purpose intended. He moved TO amend to
this effect.
Mr.. Peasants stated that this question
had been considered by his committee, but
that they had thought that it would be bet
ter TO send a part OF the committee, as the
additional cost would be but small, and the
elect perhaps more eileclllal.
The Chair stated that the vote would be
taken up0n the motion to strike out the
appropriation OF $50 for tie purpose above
named.
MFR. Chafin hoped the original resolution
would lie adopted. He stated that the
Deopie OF the West were nigh unto the
people Of Virginia, and that the tide OF
emigration was stronger now than he bad
ever known it, No means, he said, should
be snared TO advertise our resources. lie
thought Colonel Rutfin good man TO send
with the committee.
The motion to strike out $3.50 from the
report was lost.
The motion to amend The report by
striking out the names OF thetwo members
of the committee was lost by tie vote.
The vote on the adoption OF the report
was lost-MesSrs. CabelI, Crump, Dutlield,
Glasgow, Rankin, and Taylor voting
"No."
ON motion OF Mr. Dickerson, the vote
by which the adoption OF the report was
lost was recOnsdered, and that portion OF
tbe report endorsing Colonel Rufhn's
pamphlet was adopted.
Mr. Williams moved, as an amendment,
that Slj5 be appropriated, and Colonel f..
G. Runin be appointed a commission TO
visit the points named in order to secure
the objects cited.
This resolution was defeated by vote
Of 60. nh,
son. Glasgow, Powers, Wexford, Williams, and
Bass-9. c ,,c,, nj,
ants, Rankin, and Iaylor-o'
Mr.. Powers moved that one hundred
dollars be appropriated TO pay Colonel
Rufiin's expenses to Washington to see
after the matter.
MIR. Glasgow thought private subscrip-
tion should be applied to the purpose
, named. -,
Mr.. Chaffln promptly arose and said he

Government acts similarly we fruits we shall

Down here in Texas we never know when

latter may sometimes be avoided, but the

THE arrest and fning of lottery ticket
agent named Walling is perhaps one of the
most ludicrouS acts of modern days and sa-
vors much of personal injustice. 1t is quite
true that the selling was illegal, but there are
other known and advertised lottery agents
against whom no action is taken, and there is
gambling openly practiced in the heart OF the
city with comparatively no effort being made
to suppress it or to punish the offenders. The
LIGHT has no sympathy with Mr.. Walling in
his infringement of the law, but it does think
that while the authorities tacitly sanction ILL
citgaming and the sale Of lottery tickets by
other persons he has some right to complain
that he is singled out for the hand of justice
whilst Others more guilty, and perhaps more

With her basket on her arm,
And certain subtle charm,
Coming not from her adornings,
But the modest light that lies
Deep within her shaded eyes.
And she carries naught but blessing,
And she journeys up and down
Through the never-heeding town,
With her looks the ground careSSing;
Yet | know her steps are bent
. On some task of good intent.

And your modest eyes may wink,
/ will tell you what think;
Queens might gladly bear your basket,
If they could appear as true
And as good and sweet as you.
