with High Public Offices.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-The curbstone
gossips are hard at work. Circuit Judge
Drummond, of the Chicago circuit, was
announced in an evening paper as here
waiting to see the President about the
acceptance Of his resignation. He is not
in the city. He is, however. expected to
arrive here within few days, by his old
friend Secretary Gresham, to whom he
promised visit at this time long ago.
His visit has no significance in connec-
tiOn with his successor. 1t was planned
long before his resignation was
rendered. 1t was announced to-
day by the gossips that the Presi-
dent would return tomorrow and
that a Cabinet meeting would then be held
to consider the present vacancy and pos
sible future vacancies in the Cabinet.
This story was all very well until it was
discredited at the White House. The
President had not sent the usual message
under which the necessary preparations
for his return would be made, ard the
more important letters in his mail would
as usual be forwarded to him, this even
ing, at Secretary Frelinghuysen's home in
New Jersey. Tonight it is said that the
President will return on Saturday. Mean
while, the gossips are drawing in the Nor
ton rumOr and putting out one to the ef-
feet that either Mr.. Boutwell, or Mr.. Nc
CullOch will succeed Secretary Gresham.

on Public Men.
Mrs. Belva Lockwood said yesterday,
saws a Washington special of sept. so,
that it was true she had invited the other
Presidential candidates to a conference at
Wheeling, W. Va, on Oct. 10. She said it
was for the purpose of coming TO some un-
derstanding, so that scandal should be
eliminated from the campaign and the
contest fought out on principles. She
said she felt that she could take position
in the matter. because she is the only one
of the Presidential candidates that terri
bile stories were not circulated about.
Mrs. Lockwood said she was more and
more mixed up every day as to the rela-
tive strength of the parties. and could not
tell lust now who is going TO be elected
President, but that they all had hopes.
She said there Is only one thing certain
about the entire campaign, and that was
that the candidates Of the equal rights
marty were The best looking. Now

VIRGNIA's CHIVALRY.
The True Friends of the State Urged
to Rally Against Radical Rascals.

The True Friends of the state Urged
to Rally Against Radical RascaIs.
ALEXANDRIA, VA, Oct. 2.-The Demo-
cratic State Executive Committee OF Vir-
gina issued an address to-day to the
Democratic voters of that State, setting
forth the Importance to the Common
wealth of the results involved in the ap-
preaching national election, and urging
earnest and thorough preparation for the
struggle. The committee says:
The position of Virginia in the Democratic
column Of the Union must be retained or the
old State VIII reverse its past tradition, and
impertl, To great degree, its present and fu-
ture prospects Of moral, social and material
prosperity. Our very civilization is at stake
Not content with the platform and principles
Of the National Republican party, the man
agement of that political organization in NIr-
glnia. through its chosen chief, has descended
TO the low plane of an attack upon the Demo-
cratic party. in the allegation that the result
OF the last election was brought about by pre-
sOncerted plans to intlmidate colOred voters
by violence and blOOdshed, as manifested by
the unfortunate riot between the races at
Dantll e. This malignant charge is not
only without foundation in fact anu in truth,
and unsupported by any evidence which
could influence an impartial public sentiment,
but is brought forward only to inhame the
passions and prejudices of the cOlored people
to induce them TO throw their votes al the
and to excite sectional animOslties elsewhere.
THE IDEAS OF CARPET-BAGGERS.
1t is but a repetition Of the policy pursued
by carpet baggers of past years in which the
negroes were sought to be used by concentra-
tlon to dominate the majority element of the
white population OF the state.
The whole thing in substance and effect
means that Il minority of the white people
propose to combine with the united negro vote
to control the voice of Virginia and make it
Republican State. 1t means also, if success
full, supremacy hereafter in both State and
Federal affairs, and the restoration to power
of the party whose capacity for future mis-
chief will be only partially measured by its
past transactions and history. We appeal
with confidence to the Democratic party of
Virginia, which accomplished such glorious
results in the last campaign. to look Co their
laurels, and to stand by the cause. No qucs-
ton of tariff or of Federal policy must be
permitted to divide our party at this time.
More important and vital consequences to
the peeple of Virginia and to the country are
involved. There is every incentive 10 eNer-
tiOn on the part of the Democratic party of
Virginia, and its failure to respond at this
crisis Of our political fate would be the source
of lnCalCulable future loss. amt of uermanent

A BROKER ARRESTED.

Nathan Emanuel, broker of this city,
was arrested this afternoon at the in
stance of a firm at Cleveland, Ohio, and
IS now confined al police headquarters.
The cause of his detention seems to be
that Emanuel has sold about $1,000
worth of cotton hagging for the Cleye-
land firm and fails to produce the cash or
it's equivalent. The bagging, it is said,
was shipped to Emanuel at Atlanta last
year, and although frequently asked to
render bill of sale, he has failed to do so.
The arrestug officer is under the impress
sion that Emanuel, when taken into Gus
tody, was about TO leave the city. This is
said to be the second transaction of this
