Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.l
NORWOOD, VA, May %, 1888.
The county elections passed off quietly
last Thursday. and the Democratic ma
iority in the county is the largest we have
had for years-prObably eight or nine hun
dred. The negroes are becoming Disguised
with their Readiuster leaders, who claim
all the Offices for themselves, and il is COM
monty stated that the greatest negro politi-
clan in this cOunty-one who usually car
ries all his own color-h2s sworn never to
support another Mahoneite. At neigh
boring precinct in Buckingham it is stated
that late on election-day the negroes dis
covered that their Mahoneile brethren had
invariably torn of the names OF four ne
groes from the tickets before voting. Sew
enteen negroes had not yet voted, and these
without exception voted Democratic.
Our postmaster gives an account OF the
recent visit OF Wig representative, who
got of the train here, and, meeting the
postmaster, expressed much pleasure in
making bis acquaintance, adding, - sup
pose, OF course. you are a Readiuster."
Z" Not at all, ;" was the answer; "nO Read
ulster IN this neighborbood can give Sc
curity, and the Malone postmaster has to
get Democrat TO keep the Office for him."
Everything here tends to show that Ma
homes star is on the wane, and the Demo-
Gratis are iubilant.
The crops are generally very fine here.

MAY %, 1883.
The heaviest vote ever east here was polled
last Thursday, and il is estimated that full
fifty thousand tickets were put in circua-
ton IN Williamsburg and James City coun-
ty by the various candidates. The excite
meut was deep, but not OF that hoiSterous
character which marked previous elections,
when the Mahoneites were confident OF
CARRYING their end Icy solid black vote.
They could have easily been defeated but
for the circumstances feared and deprc-
Gated in a former letter; but nOtwithstand-
Inc this. the Mahoneite candidate for May
or only scratched In by q majority OF fif-
teen. Telegraphic dispatches Of election
results throughout the State does not
seem 10 have acted like 4 healing po-
litical ointment on the wounded spirits
OF the Williamsburg Mahoneites. The
Democrats are perfectly satisfied with
their efforts. The enemy have been pushed
TO the verge Of the preciplce here. and pref
" generally thro N over in the surround
ing counties. The latest display Of bossing
here is in the cascbi several merchants who
dared to exercise their manhood and eX-
press themselves against the ticket nomi-
mated 10y the machine. One OF them who
furnished the asylum with goods has been
com handed 10 make out his accounts and
send them in at once, and has been given
to understand that he need not expect .
continuance Of asylum patronage.
The recent canvass caused much de-
moralizatiOn in labor in this vicinity. Num-
bers Of colored people have not struck a
lick OF work for two months past. but eked
out n livelihood by drawing on and cleo
tioneering at the expense OF the candidates.
Many who usually farm in a small way
have neglected to put in any crop at all.
Mr.. J. w. Gillian, who for some years
past has been residing in the hop-raising
sections of New York, is making an effort
10 introduce the culture Of hops here, as
they mature six weeks earlier than they do
in New York, and the cost Of production is
less by one-half than at the North. The
industry will probably be successfully
established. Several northern parties are
awaiting the result Of Mr.. Gilliam's eX-
pertinent. II it is successful they will in
vest in land around here and engage in
the business on a large scale.
