1t does really seem that the Boss is now
somewhat ''holden with cords,p and that
it will be impossible for him much longer
to play his double game.
To all intents and purposes, he is a Re-
publican now, opposing with all his might,
the Democratic party of Virginia, while
prescribing regular Republicans; with the
view of buying up Democrats enough to
enable him to control this State in his own
interest. This done, he would, without
hesitation, openly avow himself to be the
Republican that he is. And to this COM
plexion it must come at last; and come it
will, we believe, very soon. But let not
Democrats, who were with him only in his
readjustment policy, be deceived and lured
into the Republican ranks, where their lea
