THOMAS A. HENDRICKS,
OF INDIANA.
FOR CoNGREss-10TH DISTRICT:
JOHN RANDOLPH TUCKER
OF RoCKBRIDGE.
A Prediction soon verified.
f ROCKBRIDGE

The prediction we made last week has
been verified earlier than we expected. We
then said
ssWe think it probable that the policy Of
Malone will be to run tariff Democrat for
Congress in this District, if he can find one
who can be induced to do go, on the ostensi-
BILE ground that this District should be re-
presented by a protective tariff man."
It turns out that our talented and versa
tile fellow citizen. Maj. Jed. Hotchkiss, is
the man to cell the bill'' and verify the
prediction, He expects, of course, to re-
ceive the full Republican vote, vhite and
colored, and his chief efforts will be direct
ed to get tariff Democrats, who were former
ly Wings, to add their votes to these Repub-
lican votes, and thus secure his election.
But in this, he will find that he has Zeal
culated without his host" for those who
were Wings when there was Wing party
have sense enough to know that to suffer
the party to which they now belong to be
divided at this time, by the tariff or any
other question, would be the very madness
of folly" and to proclaim themselves either
fools or traitors to their party. Those who
have sense enough to appreciate the condi-
ton of affairs in this State, know that the
Democratic party cannot afford to allow it.
self to be divided or any question, and we
are convinced that the tariff Wings, with
whom we have been associated for many
years, are too sensible and patriotic to di-
vide the party to which they now belong,
and thus put the State under the rule OF a
party, three-fourths of which are negroes
controlled by INSCRIPTIONS politicians that
would ruthlessness trample upon their dear
est rights, and blast, as with a simeon, all
the interests of the State. The tariff issue
is now the forbidden political fruit, and
"the day We eat thereof, ye shall surely de-

The Ratification Meeting in Harrisonburg.

The heart of the old Tenth Legion seems
to have been moved yesterday. Our Har-
risonburg correspondent gives a glowing
account of the days work. The eloquent
Elector of the First District is as formula
BILE on the hustings as he is graceful and
forcible as an editor. Major BAKER P. Lea
and our own TUCKER set the ball in motion
which is to move on till Rockingham is re-
deemed, and with the presidential ticket
roll up rousing majority for Colonel
O'Ferrall. who has fought so nobly for the
good cause.
Yesterday on his way to Harrisonburg
we saluted our old confrere of the press,
and with the gallant democracy of Rock
ingingham we would be glad to welcome
him again to the Valley.

Gazette.
He will have some difficulty in finding
him.
P. S.-Since the above was put in type,
we learn that he has been found, and that
Maj, Jed Hotchkiss of this city is the man.
He will find that his ewing Democrat fell
low-citizens," as he terms them, cannot be
toled into the Republican party by the tariff
nubbin. They know that this is no time
for them to suffer their party to be divided
by the tariff Or any other question. They
know that to do so would be to become,
practically, if not professedly, the allies of
the Republican party. Hotchkiss cannot
run as Democrat in opposition to the
nominee of the Democratic party, and he
must rely, and does rely, for support upon
the Republican party. He may get the
Republican vote, including all the negroes
in the District, but he will find that his
"Whig- Democrat fellow-citizens" are not
inclined, and cannot be induced or seduced
to vote for him, when he is running in the
interests of the Republican party against
the nominee, by reclamation, of the Dem
ocratic party, to which his ewing Demo-
GRAFT fellow-citizens" belong, to whom he
holds out the tariff nubbin to tole them into
the Republican stable, to be saddled and
ridden by sable Republican jockeys.

in fruitfulness crowns one of the choicest
districts of the rich county of Augusta.
In the opposite direction flows through
its trough-lfke valley the South river of
Rockbridge, sweeping on to it's destination
with the James.
From the borders of Rockingham away
to the plains of James river the eye beh0lds
the land which contains the unestimated
wealth in iron resources, classed by geolo-
gists as the "Cambrian" system, and at no
part of the extensive range is its richness
in valuable metals more conspicuous than
the section nov under view.
A short distance south Of Raphine two
towering round.top elevations in the noun
tains are observed to rise in superior gran
deur. They stand, as viewed from the
railway, in echelon on the field where nature
has marshaled long line Of her wonderful
works. In the valley, formed between

of the known cataracts, plunging down the

way line passes west for short distance of
the centre of the plateau, and for few
minutes the Blue Ridge mountains are lost
to view, but, on the other hand, it brings
to sight the North mountains of the AL
leghany range. From Elliott's Knob or
Mount Rogers, to the frowning Pur-
gatory that lifts its huge crest above James
river ct Buchanan, the eye surveys new
scenes in the west. Wide cultivated fields,
the Jump and House mountains, Walkers,
Hays's, and Kerr's creek, and the winding
North river valleys, with the Goshen pass,
form a beautiful picture too soon to be lost,
as the line of travel sweeps back again to

There is great deal of complaint In
this city over the patchy and irregular way
in which street work is done under the
present administration. One proDi-
nent citizen, who showed us his recsfpt
for 1857 90 city tax paid this year,
aud who happens to be Demo-
cgat, complains that in consequence
OF neighbor's gutter being raised
an elevation of his was rendered necessary.
A year ago half of it was raised by the
municipal authorities after several months
effort to have it done. Since then the
balance of the gutter has been filed with
dirt and debris, On Tuesday last the city
employees began the work of finishing the
gutter; kept at it on Tuesday and Wednes
day and then left OFF bafore it was done,
the street meanwhile being Obstructed
with debris, This morning the same
gentleman discovered that the street hands
were at work on the premises OF Postoffiee
Clerk VIM. M. Oster, while his gutter ia
still unfinished. He is naturally curious
to know II a Democratic taxpayer has any
rights that Republican street commits
si0ner is bound TO respect.
