The New York Herald, which is kept
constantly misinformed about political af-
fairs in Virginia by its Richmond CORES
pondent, says eve have always thought
Malone a useful force in Virginia politics,
because we were persuaded that if he lived
long enough he would teach the Democrats
that they must at least conceal their con-
tempt Of the black voters" Which shows
that the Harald knows as much about
General Malone as it does about the man
in the moon. Why, every body at all IA
miliar with Virginia politics knows that
General Malone petitioned the Legislature
to disfrapchise the negroes of Petersburg;
that he discharged every negro on his rail
road who refused to vote as he directed;
that he offset the negro majority in his
district with tissue ballots, that he made
it so dangerous for negroes to vote in
Petersburg that the Government had to
send troops there to protect them at the
polls. and that his Governor is on recent
record as saying that negroes are only fit
competitors with monkeys for chestnuts.-

WORK, AND YOU WON'T GO WRONG.

For many and many weary year
John Benson struggled along.
And simple motto was all his plan,
"Work, and you won't go wrong"
Yon see he was only a commonplace man,
And he worked in commonplace way,
But commonplace honesty was his rule,
And days work every day.
But little by little his trade increased,
And his fortune slowly CREW.
And he slowly gathered a pleasant host
OF friends both kind and true.
he made no foes, for in all he did,
He never gave cause for blame,
TIL people were glad through all the town
To honor John Benson's name.
He ne'er had struggled for fame or place.
And greatly surprised was he,
When the people chose him from all the rest.
At the head of the town to be.
And the commonplace man, for his common
place worth,
Has been their selectmen long,
And he might have chosen motto worse
Than work, and you won't go wrong"

BY Universal Accord.

By universal Accord,
AYERS CArHARTIc PILLS are the best
of all purgatives for family use. They
are the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized ma
tons, proves them the best and most
effectual purgative Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
effectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements of which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are
the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened constitu-
lions, where a mild but efectual
cathartic is required.
