Mr., Blaine.

The Petersburg Isde1-Appeal says that
il has no doubt as to Mr.. BLAINE's ability
to secure the Republican nomination for
President OF the United States, and quotes
the following paragraph from Republican
paper in Pennsylvania
"There is steadily-growing opinion,
amounting TO an almost absolute convic-
ton, that James G. Blaine is the coming
man for the presidency. He would run
like fire over the prairies. His candidacy
would arouse the strongest antagonism,
but il would also call up friendships the
most pronounced and devoted"
What concerns us in Virginia in connec-
tion with this matter is that Mr.. BLAINE
takes no stock whatever in the MALONE
movement. II the Republican National
Convention Of next year shall be BLAINE
Convention it will be anti-MAuONE and
pro-DEzENDoRF. The Straightout delega-
tion from Virginia viii be admitted, and
the MALONE delegation excluded.

Principal DAWSON tells the evolutionists

other articles are nearly all good and in
structive.
This monthly is dogmatical on the subject
Of evolution, as TO which we wish to re-
mark that ii the doctrine be true, all the
races OF men have descended frcm a COM
mon ancestor, since the chances are bill
lion to one against two or more proto-
plasmic forms developing by evolution into
such n complex thing as man.
The article on "Ihe Savings Of Science"
is in the line of sermon we recently
heard upon the subject Of education.

The Ta1f.

A gentleman In Montgomery county has
sent to us the two following extracts.
They show that history does indeed repeat
itself. Thirty-nine years ago the Demo-
Gratis and the Wings in Virginia, IL we
NAV fudge from these two extracts, were
as near at one on the tariff question as are
the Democrats and the Republicans OF the
whole Union now.
MIR. CLAY. in speech at Raleigh, pub
Iished In the National Inte!Iigencer OF June
20, 1874, said:
sDet the amount which is requisite for
an economical administration OF the Gov
eminent, when we are not engaged in war,
be raised exclusively on foreign imports ;
and I'm adjusting Il tariff for that purpose
let such determinations be made az will
foster and encourage our own domestic IN
dusiry. All parties ought to be satlshed
with tariff for revenue and discrimination
for protection"
II that is HENRY-CLAY doctrine, then the
Lynchburg Convention reaflirmed it. SO
did the Democratic State Conventions OF
Ohio and Pennsylvania. We could hardly
believe--on testimony less conclusiye-that
the difference between the Wings and the
Democrats OF 1914 on the tariff question
was only the difference between tweedle-
dun and tweededee. But so 1t would
appear from the above extract taken in
connection with the following quotation
from a letter written by Mr.. Polk, Mr..
CLAY's competitor for the presidency OF
the United States in 1914, on the 18th OF
June Of that year, and addressed to j.
KANE. We quote:
~ am in favor OF tariff for revenue
such q one as will yield sufficient amount
10 the Treasury TO defray the expenses OF
the Government economically administered.
"In adjusting the details OF revenue
tariff | have heretofore sanctioned such
moderate discriminating duties rs would
produce the amount OF revenue needed,
and at the same time afford reasonable
protection to our home industry.
81 am opposed to tariff for protection
merely. and not for revenue"
Mr.. RANDALL would be willing to run
for Speaker upon a platform made up from
either Of those extracts.

The Petersburg Inder-Appeas copies q
paragraph from The news personal COLI
umn Of the Dispatch stating that "Herr
GERI.orr, student Of Strasburg, has
padded his own canoe from the source
Of the Danube TO Berlin" And adds I:
!" win the Dispatch, which gives publicity
to the foregoing. please give "a diagram Of
the route by which this enterprising stu
dent could have reached Berlin on the
Danube'" The Dispatch did not say. as
the b,der-Appeal would make II appear,
that the enterprising student reached
" Berlin on the Danube" We suppose
he reached Berlin on Spree, for in order
to make the journey from the source OF the
Danube 70 that point in a canoe he must
have been half seas over.

says:

forts have somehow or other spread abroad

CHEERFUL DEMOCRATIC OUTL00K-O'FER-
RAIL- MEETS DAN. BAILEY AND GIVES HIN A
TERRIBLE DnUBBISG.
Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.l
WYTHEvmLE. Va. October g, 1883.
A discussion here to-day between Hon.
C.. +. O'Ferrall and Dan. Bailey, OF Wash
ington county, resulted IN one OF the most
complete and triumphant victories for
Democracy ever achieved on the stump in
Southwest Virginia
Bailey opened in one hour, to which
O'Ferrall had an hour for reply, and each
a reioinder Of thirty minutes. Bailey oc-
cupied his time principally with a discus
sion Of the debt question. claiming that it
was not settled. and with an attempted
Justification OF the party measures OF the
last Legislature-the reapportionment Of
congressional districts, reduction OF the
judicial circuits, and the commissioner-of-
sales bill. He also attempted to justify
the course OF the Governor in appointing
negro school trustees. &c.
O'Ferrall replied TO all the points made
by his adversary. and showed up COM
pletely the Radicalism OF the Malone party
end its efforts to put the grand old Com
monwealth under Radical and negro rule.
He discussed in a mastery manner the
debt question. In the course OF his speech
he showed that the schools were instituted
and fostered by the Democratic party, and
that the bill reducing taxes to forty cents
was proposed by the Democrats and OPP
posed by the Mahoneites. He exposed
Colonel Robert Sayers, the Mahoneite del
egate and candidate for reelection,
and made him acknowledge that he voted
to retain the fifty cents tax. His denun-
citation OF Malone and Cameron for their
bargain with Arthur, Cameron & Co. to
sell out the Democratic Readiusters to the
Stalwart Radicals for few Federal offices
was OF the most severe kind. Taking all
In all, no Mahoneite ever received more
severe drubbing than Bailey did to-day.
The crowd was 4 very large one, filling
Sections Hall, and was composed OF about
three Democrats TO one Radical.
When O'Ferrall commenced his fist
speech the Republicans, headed by some
Of their leaders, left the house. They
couldn't stand the music. O'Ferrall was
cheered to the echo throughout bis speech.

SION.
Correspondence OF the Richmond Di.patch.I
OCTOBER 3, 1888.
Yesterday was our COunty-COurt day,

Major Baker =. Lee, who had been an
nounced for some time 10 address the peo-
pie OF Sussex at October court and Major
Lee was promptly on hand to I'LL his ap-
p0intment. He commenced his speech ut /
O'Clock from the Democratic stand in the
corner OF the courthouse square. and for
more than an hour did the large crowd
present listen attentlyely and eagerly To his
burning and eloquent words. IL Is useless
to attempt a description Of his speech,
which was conceded on all sides 10 Toe the
best that has been delivered in old Sussex
in many day. His appeal TO the whites
10 come out on electiOn-day and save the
old State, rs sold Virginia expects every
man to do his duty on that day." was strik-
ingly impressive, and venture the predic-
ton that every Democrat present will do
his whole duty.
The Straghtouts held a meeting. and
were addressed by MIR. FDnegan, who is
here. II is said, to re0rganize that wing OF
the Republican party. The Mahoneites
had no speaker on hand.
Sussex will send up good record on
the 9th OF November. H.
