In a brief, printed by Gen. Benjamin F. But
Ter, on behalf of widow seeking restoration to
the pension rolls, she having been dropped under
statute providing that a widows pension shall
be discontinued when she is known to be living
in open and notorious adulterous cohabitation, 1"
the plea is made that his client is not amenable
to the law because the offense was committed
prior to the passage of the act. The brief closes
with this argument:
1T seems also lately to have been very fully
decided by the highest tribunal known to the
law that prior unchastity can work no forfeit
uIe of emoluments, or Office of honor and profit
or official and social standing, therefore my
client should be restored to the rolls

The Richmond VA Dispatch says:

would nave Deen IFeSluenG IN spite OF Jne
thirty-six Democratic electoral votes of New
York"
The Richmond (Va,) Dispatch says:
Cleveland was the candidate of the eau
casians, and received but few votes anywhere
not cast by white men. Blaine, on the con-
trary, received nearly all the negro votes, and
leaving these votes out Of the count, was left
far behind in the race for the presidency"
The Macon GA Telegraph says;
''Let it be remembered that all along, even
in the face of paid oppressors and hostile bay
onets, the principle that this is white mans
country to be ruled and governed by white
men, was laid down and adhered to. 1t will
hardly be expected that this will be abandoned
now The negro is laborer His place is
the workshop and the field. He is mentally,
morally and physically inferior to and weaker
than the white race. His old masters are still
his masters in general sense; but he has the
benefit of the law which applies to all free
men. He need not expect to rule in high
places nor to sit in Judgment. He has only to
fill his sphere and obey the laws AS long as
he does this he need have no fears for his
safety; but if he forgets the lessons that for
twenty years have been impressed upon him,
he is responsible for the consequences"
The Mobile (Ala.) Register says:
''The struggle of twenty-four years is over,
and at last the people have driven from power
party that dyed its hands in innocent blood,
that robbed the women and children of half
the States of all their possessions, that man
acled and chained to the earth sovereign
States, that heaped up mountains of local
debt, that robbed the people at home and dis
graced them in the eyes of foreign powers.
This party is at last overthrown. Thank
God we enter upon a new era in American
history"

LETTER FROM RICHMOND.

Especial Correspondence Of the Alexandria GAZETTE.
RICHMOND, Va, March lit is the belief
now that there will be an extra session aud that
two-thrGs of the members will sign request to
the Goverdur to issue u call. Two hundred pri-
vate bills arc on the calendar of the House and
friend, of these measures declare that it will be
impossible to get them through in a week or ten
days time. Opponents of an extra session afi RIM
that several railroad lobbyists aiming to get this
further time in order to have time to force their
schemes through. 1t is hoped that such reports
are unfoundcd for it would be unfortunate, this
late in the session 70. anything Of this kind to be
iutrodu ed into the reform Legislature The lob
byist is dangerous foe to the liberties of the
people This is evidenced in the proceedings Of the
Malone Legislature. An old House official said
to-day, Il predict an extra session."
1t is thought move will be put foot and
pushed to get lunatic asylum located in the
Southwest. Wytheville IL the place named. The
friends of the University of Virginia and the
Military Institutes it is said will join the South
west in securing this aud the Southwest will in
turn help them ont. Indeed, regardless of the
rumor, there is every disposition to give the
Southwest what that section desires. Its people
are good, self reliant and answering democrats
and of course excellent citizens.
Mr. Turner, the Senator from Norfolk, now
astonishes the Senate with his vest of Ornate
pattern. He always wears silk vests and
generally appears in different one every day.
He is by far the ablest man on the Malone side.
When he was a member Of the House and had his
seat on the side with the colored members he used
to have gold cup with him from which he drank.
His love of the liberal party did not carry him
far enough to drink water from the same glass
with them.
Mr. John S. Wise was in the city to day and
went bird shooting. The coored people in all
this vicinity are very much down him. His
explanation is not satisfactory to them. The
Campaign, edited by Page McCarty, came out to.
day and is very rough on him.
The orgie at the penitentiarT about Christmas
times. alluded to last night, is attracting much
teution. 1t is indeed too disgusting to be print
ed, but is circulated around in conversation. The
fact is. even the most hardy Western journal
would shrink from publishing the details of the
affair which afforded an hours amusement to some
favored couvicts and Malone officials of the State
prison.
If there is an extra session it is not improbable
that the volunteer military will get their bill
through. This b anch really needs some encour-
agement at the hands OF the Legislature.
