Let the Democrats stand true 70 ,hcin-
selves. Although the negro popuiat.ol
has outnumbered and therefore out'o'eu
them, there will come q time when tDey
will realize who have been their pest

large. Over three hundred OF them cast
their votes against the white people. some

some from various portions OF this county,

Political Assessments.
We have before alluded to the Ubiquitous
assessments imposed by Boss Malone on
those persons holding official positions in
fbe custom-house. post-ofllcc, and navy
ward. and the requirement OF two days
pay from each workman in the navy-yard,
10 help elect the Mahoncitc ticket In Nor
folk county. This assessment has been
collected by one Of Mahone's lackeys, who,
rs we are informed, went into the yard,
int finally took his stand outside the navy
ward cate. i'm order TO make sure OF the
contributions imposed by the Boss on men
who hold their situations, not for compe-
tencv or efficiency. but under the express
conditions that they are the slaves OF Ma
hone and will vote a he directs, and con-
tribute their WAGES TO carry out any scheme
of villainy concoctcd by this chief OF lib
eralism in the Coalition party.
In order to let the public understand
the duplicity and cunning exercised ny

Every one who reads the above will at

Virginia.
There seems 10 be no doubt at all that
Senator Malone and his faction have re-
ccivcd a tremendous repuise in the local
elections OF Virginia. As the returns come
i'm and allow comparative statements 10 he
made, the defeat OF the Administrations CO.
alition is seen to be signal. and will no
doubt later on become disastrous. II is
not at all probable that the Boss can make
another victorious contest. because the true
nature Of his compact with the Republic
cans has become understood, and for the
further reason that he and his Governor
have nj last aroused the white people OF
Virginia TO a sense OF their degradation,
and compelled the fight to be made outside
Of debt adjustment and the mere spoils Of
