WHAT THE vERGrNIA DEMOCRATIC
PAPERS HAVE 40 SAY.
Norfolk Ledger
A Copktal SDCech.

The necessity for thorough condensation
in our matter prevents our printing In full
the admirable speech OF the Hon. Waller
X. Staples, at Salem, last Monday, as re-
ported In the Dispatch. We give few OF
its strong points, and can well imagine Us
effect upon the intelligent portion OF the
large audience present. Judge Staples has
been more than twelve years out OF poll
ties, and comes TO the rescue OF bis Strte
and her people with the earnestness ana
vim which distinguished him in former
years. The better class OF those who were
Readjusters when the debt was living
issue refuse to unite with the Coalitionists
In their attempt to deliver Virginia over to
Arthur, and are resuming their righiul
places In the ranks of the unterrified DEM
ocracy. Bossism must go. The verdict OF
the people In November will be, "Turn
the rascals out!"

whose daily income exceeded the young
man ; yearly salary. A correspondent
OF the Rochester Democrat gives several
"reminiscences of the old gentleman,
which INDICATE that his quiet ways ex-
pressed his character:
Forty years AGO, when the noted
phiiSntfropist was merely business
man, / used to see the SION upon the
wareEousein BurlinG Slip Peter Cooper
Glue AMI Iron Wire.
Iio" little did / then imagine the dis
tinction this name Would mold both in
enterprise. and benevolence The Office
was very small, and everything had a
quiet look, for it was in fact merely a
place of taking orders which were served
from the factories
The quiet, methotiical man who sat at
the chief desk might have been taken by
a stranger for retired mechanic who
had become clerk. He spoke in a calm
and subdued tone, and resembled one
of the more favored members of the
working class.
Such indeed he was, and in that light
he always viewed himself, and hence his
memory now stands before the public
as enc OF the most wonderful mechanics
in tile world history.
Next door to Cooper, and under the
same roof was seen the plain and I'M
pretending sign, Cyrus ". Field, Rags :"
Here tall young man, with Yankee
accent, purchased paper stock for the
New England mills. and here the chit
foniers and rag pickers found a market
for their gathering.
Under such circumstances Field and
Cooper became acquainted; and event
ually they united in the cable enterprise
