would be handsomely renumerated for his
"gallantry." Experiments show that man

twenty-seven Confederate soldiers, now res
ident in Rockingham county, Va, have in
vited General Logan to address them, and,
though heretofore democrats, every one of
them will vote the Blaine ticket on the
4th proxiho. Next to Mnhoneite, a
Blaineite is most conspicuous for his reck
lessness of assertion. Every one at all &C
quainted with Rockingham county knows
that there are not FIVE hundred and twenty
seven Confederate soldiers remaining in
that county. and that if there were, certain
ly every one of them would not desert his
party, for, as General Early says, the next
thing to DESERVING ones army in time of
war is deserving ones party in time of
peace, and Confederate soldiers are not that

was a squeal of alarm and anguish, aud
showed that his last and only hope now is
upon the revival of the sectional animosi
ties that in the past have contributed so
largely to the retention of his party's sway.
But this is bad for Malone, for it shows
that Mr.. Blaine will waste none of his mon.
