Tomorrow Night.

All reasonable people will concedc that
the City Central Committee did graceful
as well as sensible thing last Friday eve
ming in surrendering the trust which had
been confided to II year before, and in
providing for the election OF new COM
mittee upon the basis Of reunited ana
harmonious party. in accordance with the
suggestion Of the chairman OF the Congress
sional District Committee.
There are few, we think, who would de-
preciate the services OF the old committee !;
vet Reorganization seems to be contem-
plated, II not demanded, by the plan Of
the State Executive Committee. The re-
suit OF last fall's election In bringing out
the vote OF the party in this city as it was
never done before, except perhaps in 1878,
attests the value OF its labors. and well
will It be for the interests Of the city and
the State II one equally efficient shall be
chosen tomorrow night.
Let all true citizens, then, turn out in
their respective wards and see to 1t that
the best men are chosen for this response
bic position-upon whose judgment. pru-
dence, and labors will largely depend the
issues of the pending campaign, and the
character Of the delegation that shall repre-
sent Richmond in the next Legislature.

Young Hartwel, who stabbed Alley
some few DAYS ago. Is still confined In jail.
Yesterday. through counsel, he made ap-
plication for his release on bail. Mayor
Jarratt refused to allow him bail. This
morning his attorney filed petition for
habeas corpus, and the matter will be
brought before Judge Mann this evening.
Alley was at first declared by his medical
attendants to be fatally stabbed: but he
has since improved, and now bids fair to
recover. Hartwel is only eighteen years
old Is the son OF respectable parents living
In Amelia county, and Is a peasant-fea-
tured Young fellow. lie has been here for
few months only, and Is employed In the
tobacco factory OF George Cameron.
At the meeting OF the Council held last
NIGHT the finishing stroke to bonus for the

tered by Mr.. McIlwaine. He offered
substitute providing for donation to the
Virginia and North Carolina Railroad Com
pany OF $4,000 i'm per cent. bonds OF the
city. to be delivered to the company when
the road has been completed to the corpo-
rate limits. This was further amended Sc
as to make fifteen Of the fifty available for
the building OF a depot in Petersburg.
This may be considered quietus TO the rail-
road.
The Senatorial Convention will be held
on the 18th Of September. Petersburg is
entitled to nineteen delegates, Prince
George to five, and Surry to six.

The New York World remarks that Mr..
RICHARD GRANT WHITE, who is not rebel.
but IN extreme Republican and eX-office-
holder, writes with great irreverence and
recklessness about the late war. He says
in recent issue of the North american
ReUie,p
"The war flor the Union] was virtually
carried on by the moneyed men, the bust
ness-men, OF the North. They furnished
its sinews,' and this they did for their
own purposes and In their own interests.
Many of them grew rich by means OF the
war; most of them saw that in its success
full prosecution lay their future prosperity.
The war was money-making time, and
the war was mOney-making process. The
Federal Government was victorious Simply
because 1t had the most men and the most
money on its side, and it had the most men
because it had the most money. The Con-
federatc cause failed simply because its
men and its money were exhausted; for no
other reason"
"Speak the truth and shame the devil"
But only suppose that Mr.. RICHARD
GRANT WHITE had written that paragraph
fifteen or eighteen years ago, and the North
American Reuie,c had published it.

an. p. RUE, Z. NJ" publishes a list Of
the letters remaining uEcalled for in the
post-oflice at Norfolk on the Dist. The
law OF Virginia provides that no Federal
official Of any sort can be Il Virginia Off
cial OF any sort. But Governor CAMERON
refuses to issue writ of election in that
district because he doesn't know whether
Mr.. RUE has forfeited his seat in the Vir-
ginia Senate or not!
The Norfolk Ledger says on this subject:
"The Democracy Of this section will not
be deprived Of their legal rights by the
partisanry of Governor Cameron. Rue
and Martin have no right to seats in the
State Senate, and If Malone did not fear
defeat in the two districts they formerly
msrepresented there would be no hesi-
fancy on the part OF Cameron to order
elections to supply these vacancies. There
is but one way to overcome this attempt OF
the Mahoneites TO deprive Norfolk city and
Princess Anne and Portsmouth and Nor
folk county of senatorial representation in
the Legislature, and that is for the people
to nominate and elect their own candidates.
We take our appeal out of the hands Of a
partisan Governor and ask the people to
maintain their integrity and defend their
own rights"

LOGAN AND MALONE A BELIEF IN WASH

FORMED AN ALLIANCE. - Washington, Au-
gust 2l.--It was understood here before
Senator Logan departed from Washington
to plunge into the western wilds that q
corps OF jealous friends in this city would
be constantly on the alert to keep him post
ed rs to every apparent change in the poll
teal situation which might In any way
affect his prospects as candidate for
the presidential nomination. II was also
understood that the Illinois Scna.
tor had already formed some strong
political alliances, one OF which,
IL was asserted, was with Senator
Malone. The latter's remark in an inter-
view in the Tribune last week that "Vir-
ginia would consider II blessing to have
Arthur continued in the Administration Of
the Government" has excited considera-
BILE comment I'm Washington, where many
people believe that he is playing double

the support Of Senator Logan. As an evil
dence OF this 1t Is pointed out that most OF

passed In the company OF ex-CommissiOner
