A Bad and COrrupting Example.

The President and his whole Cabinet
have abandoned their posts of duty at
Washington, gone to frolic, and have left
the entire management of all the affairs of
the United States Government in the hands
ofunderliags and clerks.
What is he doing to earn his $50, 900 an
nual salary? If a poor day -laborer for the
government at 81 or So day leaves his
work for day or two, his pay stops. But
the President Of the United States, who
ought to set an example for others to fol-
low. and who is receiving about $40 day,
including Sundays, pockets his salary, and
goes off to the Rocky Mountain Region in
the Yellowstone River valley, on a fishing
frolic and his whole cabinet has followed
his example, and gone in different direc-
tions on their frolicing excursions, leaving
the government to take care of itself And
this President Arthur, is the man whom

dent, because he is for them, in distributing

WHO Is DISTURBING THE PEACE.
all recollect that in 1867 the colored people
of the State were completely demoralized
by the carpet-bag and scalawag leaders OF
the Radical party. They were strolling
through the country neglecting their WORK
and engaged often in violence and crime.
Every sensible man in Virginia attributed
the increase of lawlessness, crime, and vio-
lence among the colored people to the ha-
rangues, teachings and leagues of Radi-
calism. Now we are having similar ha-
rangues, similar meetings, race questions in
politics, organization of the negro vote,
promises of Office, and we are beginning to
have an increase of violence, lawlessness,
crime and Generalization. The State mill
tia were called out fora week to protect in
Pittsylvania Jail, three negro highwaymeR,
who murdered farmer in his wagon. Race
prejudices produced by the politics which
Malone has introduced into Virginia makes
it necessary (the Governor thinks) to keep
the peace by military power.-Lynchbarg

| COALITION VS. REPUBLIcAN.-Last week
the Coalitionists of Greensville county
adopted unanimously the resolution follow
| ing:
ReS0tDed, That we, the Coalitionists of
GreensVllle county, in convention assem-
pled, do hereby denounce him Mr.. Dezen-
dor1I and his committee, and all such like
MN, as traitors to our party, and we do
proclaim them as Bourb n Democrats in
disguise. They are wolves in sheep's
clothing. They are our enemies-our
worst enemies-and we are their foes
That resolution is worthy of considera-
ton. Here are men calling themselves
'Coalitionists" who denounce other men
who call themselves Republicans" as trail
tors-not TO the Republican party, but to
the Coalition party. Now, how could that
be? MIR. Dezendorf and his followers nev-
er protessed to be other than Redublicans.
They claim to be Republicans still. Yet
the above resolution evidently means that
he and they are traitors to the Republican
party, seeing that they request it to be pub
llshed IN the Washington Republican, which
IS the organ at the national capital of the
Republican party. Mr.. Dezendorf and his
friends declare that their choice for the
next President of the United States is
James g. Blaine, who is recognized pretty
generally as the greatest leader in the Re-
publican party, as the man who would be
the most prominent of all the Republican
asplrants to that high Office if he would
only allow his name to be used in connec-
ton with it, and as the political giant who
could if he would crush the Arthur boom
as easily as GulliVer disposed of his Lillpu-
tian adversaries How. then, can it possi-
bly, be true that Mr.. Dezendorf and his fol-
lowers are traitors to the Coalition party +?
Are the Coalitionists better and truer Re-
publIcans than they? If so, why call them
selves ''Coalitionists ?' Why do they cover
their genuine Republicanism with the mask
OF Coalitionism? How can men be "Bour-
bon Democrats in Disguise" and at the
same time be open and avowed advocates
of all the measures of the national Repub-
ican party, and in favor of the election to
the presidency Of the ablest and most dis
Republican statesman in the
United States
tfAh, it is the Greensville Coalitionists
who are playing false 1t is they who are
trying to mislead the voters. 1t is they
who refuse to be known as Republicans.
1t is they who wish to secure votes by keep
ing up pretence of coalition between
Democrats and Republicans-by pretend
ing that they represent both the Democratic
and Republican parties.
The above resolution is another campaign
document for the nse of Democratic speak
ers. 1t lets the cat out of the bag in the
most innocent manner possible. It proves
that, the Mahoneites being judges, those
Republicans are traitors to the Republican
party who are enemies of the Coalition
party. If they claim to be Republicans,
they must be also Coalitionists. Otherwise
they are traitors.-Richmond Dispatch.

THE BRIGHT SMILE AT THE DOOR.

Ii BRtG AE SM kEEl Al THE OO'
When day has almost vanished,
And brightly sets the sun;
When six O'Clock is striking,
And all the work is done;
l fondly wander homeward,
My bosom brimming DER
With JOY when I discover
The bright smile at the door.
At work what always cheers me?
What makes my spirits light,
When birds sing in the morning,
When stars are out at night?
What gildeth all my visions
And makes my soul explore
Unnumbered happy valleys?
The bright smile at the door.
Oh. where's the charm so certain
TO lead the wanderer home,
To guide his erring footsteps
Wherever he may roam,
That leads him ever homeward,
From every foreign shore,
A memory e'er alluring?
The bright smile at the door.
A gay and loving welcome
May cheer the poorest meal,
A little word of kindness
The sting from grief may steal.
And life to me is fairer
And sweeter than before
Since l have learned to look for
The bright smile at the door.
Oh, wives, where'er your dwelling,
However poor it seem,
You'll make of palace
More fair than man can dream,
If only you'll remember
How much man sets store
By loves reward of labor
The bright smile at the door.

In A QUANDARY.-Gen. James H. Will
liams, prominent Virginian readjuster,
spoke in Woodstock Monday, and is quoted
as saying, in reply to aquestion, that ''they
were readjusters now, but God only knows
what they would be in 1884," Gen. Will
liaTns had not yet seen the latest utterancos
Of Senator Malone, the readjuster boss,
who predicts great Republican victory in
1884, no matter whom the democrats put

GoOD-BYE.-In our last issue we noticed
the dissolution of the dual committee here
tofore controlling the fortunes of the Ma
honeites in this county, and the appoint
ment of single committee to run the par
ty in the future. Upon examination we
find that the Coalitionists have made clean
cut, and landed in the bosom of the Radi-
cal party. OF the 81 members, IS have al
ways been Republicans and 10 have in the
past posedas Mahoneites, buthave voted uni
formly against the Democrats. The fact is
that the SO called '.Readjusters, '.Mahone-
ties, Liberals" sc. have discarded all of
their aliases and come before the people as
Republicans of the Arthur type.
