FRED eTlckSDufg Star.
We extract from this address some
reasons why the negroes should support
the "ReadjusterC Coalition party" They
are as follows:
"They 1.-THE Readjustersl found that we
had no representation in the various State
offices at Richmond, and they gave us the
messenger to the Governor in the person of
colored man. They gave us colored
man as clerk ip the First Auditors Office,
and another bright-eyed, smart colored
youngster as clerk in the Second Auditor
office. They gave us fifteen colored men as
guards at the State penitentiary. They
gave US colored man as assistant post
master at Norfolk, and in the Federal Off
ces we have more colored men than ever be-
fore. They have given US colored men as
members of school-trustee boards. They
have given us colored men as jurors. Now,
we pause to ask, if this is not good show
ing for that party, and if you do not think
it your duty to give it your earnest and
hearty support ?''
S. Brown Allen of this county is First
Auditor. He has in his Office negro clerk.
For several months he has been canvassing
instead of attending to the duties of his
Office. Did this negro clerk attend to his
duties during his long absence?

A CARD FROM ROBERT j. WALKER.-In our
issue of last week. we copied several extracts
from the Rockingham Register, giving the re-
ported profane expressions used by Walker ia
his speech at H9rrisonburg, and which the
Register says were reported to it by "a gentle
man who was present and took notes of his
speech"
Mr.. Walker publishes a card in the last Val
ley Vir9inian in which he says they are ''abso-
lutey Internationally, and maliciously false"
1t is now in order for the Registers inform
ant, who was present and took notes of his
speech" to rise and explain for, if Walkers
denial be true, he has done great wrong, not
only to Mr.. Walker, but to the Editor Of the
Register, who made the publication upon the
Information furnished him.

The Greenbrier Independent, of the 25th,
says:-"FOr several weeks it was feared that

seriousness after his attack of typhoid fever.
His friends will be pleased to learn that on Mon
day last his reason fully returned, and that he
is decidedly improved"
Mr.. John P. Kerr, Junior Editor of the Rock

To see that county again align itself with the
Democratic "a, ty would be great pleasure,
and would not surprise US more than the result
in Ohio. Come along, old Rockingham, and
take your old position in the Democratic ranks.
We hope that every Democrat i'll that county
will go to the polls on the day of election and
cast his vote for the Democratic Ticket

peror declared that the relations be-

entirely satisfac tory and that people of
all countries felt strongly the need of
peace, which the powers had loyalty
endeavored 10 mintain. Austria's s
efforts, he said, had ever been directed
to that end, as peace enabled the gov
ernment to give increased attention to
the material interests of the country.
He said that while the reform that were
to be inauguratel in the Imperial
army and the formation of the reserves
would require additional expenses, he
hoped that the tranquilization Of Bosnia
and Herzegovina would lead to reduc-
tion of the army Of occupation in those

A DANGEROUS Game.

The leading game among the small
boys at the present time, is that known
as "catty," which consists of a stick
about six inches long and pointed at
both ends. The stick is laid down on
the ground and sent flying in the air
by being struck on the end with q
larger stick, and pedestrians passing
near where this game is going on are
often compelled to dodge the flying
stick. Yesterday afternoon a number
of boys were playing "catty on Fifth
street, between French and Walnut,
lust after No. school was dismissed.
The scholars were vending their way
home and many were compelled to
dodge the flying missile, but little Sallie
Mines was not so fortunate in dodging
the ugly stick and received a severe
blow in the mouth, which cut her lip
and loosened her front teeth Her Zip
was badly swollen this morning, and
she was unable to attend school. If
the stick had struck her in the eye 1t
would probably have blinded her for
life. This dangerous practice should
be broken up by the police before
more serious accident occurs.
