MT. Jennings, the able London correspond dent of the New York, World, predicts that in the course of the present year an emigration from Great Britain to the United States vii set in such as has not been sesn. since the days immediately following the discovery of gold in California. He bases his prognosti- cation mainly upon the fact that England has more people on her soil than she can support agriculture has become precari- ous occupation the cotton and iron trades have seen their best days; there is growing disposition for higher life than that of the lifelong plowman or operative. No mere enfranchisement of the rural population in proportion to that of the boroughs in Eng land and Scotland, or modification of the land laws in Ireland, will answer the pur- pose.

POLITICAL NOTES AND
COMMENTS.

The interest of the white people of the
Coalition party in the Boss and his
schemes seems to have died out. Gen.
Malone and Fl. n. Riddleberger were ad-
vertised to speak at Buchanan, Botetourt,
on Friday, Oct. 10Th. There were not
more than seventy five people present, and
neither Malone nor Riddleberger put in
an appearance. A Coalitionist named
McCaull spoke to the crowd, of which
four-tifths were negroes.
The traight-out- Republicans of Book
ingham who oppose the Coalition, have
nominated John Funk, of Singers Glen,
for the Senate, and Henry G. Berry and
W. Scott Cordell, for the House. Geo. N.
aedrick heretofore leading Readjuster
in East Rockingham, has announced his
intention to vote the Democratic ticket,
and will be followed by at least twenty
five of his Readjuster friends. These &C.
currences and the general lack of interest
shown by the Rockingham ReadJusters
have caused the Chairman OF the Coalition
County Committee of Rockingham to
which he beseeches them to bessir Chem
selves if they would save the county from
falling into the hands of the Democrats.
The county chairman says:
''Our enemies were never more vigllant
in any canvass than they are in this one
and our own friends never mole indlffer
ena and apathetic. -
The Straight-out Republicans of Camp
bell county have nominated Capt. j. y.
reynolds (col. captain of the Hill City
Guards, for the Senate, and Gabriel Hunt
and z. A. Cousins, also colored, for the
House. Reynolds was lately clerk in
the internal revenue office.
The approaching trial of Salathiel Lewis
a white Coalitionist who shot and killed
Jno. l.. Newson. prominent colored
Straight-out- Republican in Southampton
county. is exciting good deal of feeling
in that county. Lewis is to be defended
by Hon. Geo. d. Wise, of Richmond, and
Capt. G. II. Causey, of Suffolk.

In resume of the political status of
the States which vote next Tuesday, CIV
en- in anoth her column, we set down Pennsyl-
vanaas certain for the Republicans. 1t
would be as well, however, to add some
figures and inform our readers that last
year as between PaLtison (Dem. for Gov
ernor, and the regular and independent Re-
publican candidates combined, the vote
stood for them $50 1892 and for Pattison
355, 79l, which leaves only Republican
majority of 8, Sal. There are 565 voting
precincts in Pennsylvania, and a change
of votes at each in favor OF the Demuc-
racy would, all other things being as they
were at tue last election, give the Dem
ocracy the State. We prefer however,
to look at the Republican side in what
is conceded to be Republican State. and
put the Keystone Commonwealth down
for that slde-unless, indeed, like Ohio,
the bottom of the Arthur and Malone
combination has dropped out.

THEY: WANT ALL SCHOOL

Some of the advocates OF MesSrS. Full
cher and Hamilton are attempting now TO
use the argument that the people OF Au-
gusta need not be alarmed. that the Me-
proes of this county do not want mixed
school boards It is not true; the Negroes
of Staunton and Augusta do want mixed
school boards. Here is the utterance of
prominent cclored minister among them,

at the Court House here, made to his
brother white Coalitionists, that he too
had been enormously reported as in favor
IF separate school systems and that he was
in favor of mixed school boards. And the
Reverend gentleman went on to announce
bis devotion to the Coalition party and
added that any colored man who did not

We omit from this Democratic column,
Ohio %, Indiana Is, and Wisconsin IL
all of which went Democratic by large
majorlties last year, Ohio repeating it
this year. If from the 217 we take the
vote OF Massachusetts. IA. there would
still remain enough OF certain States
after next Mondays election to elect a
Democratic President. without either
PENNSYLVANIA or Virginia, And if we
add Indiana, there will be II electoral

as can be done so far in advance. the
Course Virginia will take in the Presi-
Dental election. While it is perfectly true
that the people of Virginia might elect a
/ Democratic legislature this year and yet
elect Republican ticket in 'S4. and vce
versa, yet this is the first time Virginia
has had an opportunity to drop the lead
and take her soundings under circum-
stances favorable in many respects. to
ascertaining her true position as between
the Republican and Democratic parties of
the Nation. The pretence of Democracy
has been abandoned by the leaders of tie
Coalition, and is only used here and there
by local canvassers for the purpose of de-
ception; any idea of cooperating with the
National Democracy in "a is openly and
abusively repudiated by the Coalitlonists.

it.
There are in what are called the black
counties of Virginia, eleueT black men
candidates for the legislature. They are
all pretty sure of election. having been put
up to secure the heavy black majorities of
their localities. There are in Virginia
two hurdred and sixty-four black justices,
eonstables, deputy sheriffs and the like,
who are for the most part active polite
ians, controlling large, aid to the Coali-
ton, vitally necessary vote. Without the
black vote in Virginia the Coalition would
be helpless. Without concessions to the
black vote it cannot be held. why. DO

their race from them than they can from

mer are the friends. while the latter are
the enemies of the Negro race. The Ne

where it will do the most good for the
Negro. He doesn't Care about Debt.

will give him the most rights. Will he
get special legislation if he demands it
from the Coalition ? Certainly he will !!
He is already conceded special place ID
its political organization. Special circulars
are sent to colored ministers. Special
clubs are formed for Negro men, special
appointments are made of Negroes on
School Boards because they are Negroes.
special speeches are made for him by Goa
Iition orators such as the "toe of our
boot" speech by Attorney General
Blair. He has been appointed to special
cIerkships in the State capitol. He has
been appointed special canvasser to arouse
his race. Governor Cameron has specially
announced that he would "carry Africa
into the war" Does any man familiar
with the history of the formation aud CO.
heslye causes of the Coalition doubt that
he will have special Civil Rights legisla
ton Hardly. 1t will come if they get
the next legislature gust as naturally as 1t
came to the Republican party, and for the
same reasons. And If the white people of
the State kick, they will have Republl-
can Force Bill superadded to. make State
Civil Rights work better. The caucus of
pledge bound legislators would be just
the machinery to carry the work through
they could not help themselves.
Would it violate the sentiment Of the
white Coalitionists yet in the party? Not
with the great majority of them. The
Democrats run nearly all the theatres and
railroads and hotels in Virginia and the
fine and imprisonment of id Bour-
bon Funder" would be a savory incense
to the Liberals Of the day, and an intoxi-
eating draught of joy to the African.
Edward EchoIs and John N. Opie, the
Democratic candidates for the House of
