Singular Position of Maj. Jed. HOtchkiss.

In being an independent candidate for
congress in this District, Maj. Jed. Hotch-
kiss occupies singular position, and will
be very apt to fall between 'two stools !"
He must run either as Democrat or Re-
publican. If, as Democrat, the Demo-
Gratis will not support him, because he will
be running in opposition to the Democratic
nominee; and the Republicans will not do
80. because he will be running as Demo
GRAFT If, as a Republican, the Democrats
will not support him, because he is Re-
publican; and the Republicans will not be
apt to support man who never announced
himself a Republican till he was a candi-
date wanting their votes. They will not
be willing to make the humiliating confess
sion that their party has not a suitable man
to be candidate. If the Republicans NOM
mate candidate of their party, and there
be three candidates in the field, it will be
evident that Hotchkiss will not be running
with any hope of election, and his purpose
must be to defeat the Democratic party
Under such circumstances no Democrat, or
"Whig-Democrat," as he calls those who
were Wings when there was Wing party
should vote for him; for to do so would
be to aid the election of the Republican
candidate.

The Farmers Assembly.

We had prepared for the SPECTATOR a
full report of the proceedings embracing
notes of the discussions on many PROPOSE
tions during the protracted session, but
there is not room for all in this issue. A
summary is furnished in another column OF
the most important features of the delibera-
lions.
The amount and character Of the work
mapped out for action previously, and
at the October session in Richmond, takes
in many subjects, which are Of vital impor-
lance to the future of our agriculture.
There was entire unanimity in the express
sion of views for future and progressive
work, and the determined character it
should assume. Agriculture and its inter-
ests and associations in production deserve,
and rightfully should have, controlling
power in shaping legislation, State and Ma
tional. To secure that, it must be by con-
cert and unity of action. To strike at the
root of power, the people must be appealed
to in the selection of representation. The
enormous amount of money in the federal
treasury, put there, in the main, by oppres-
sive taxation on agriculture, does not reflect
credit upon legislation which turns deaf
ear to the efforts and appeals which have
gone up for most needful aid, so necessary
to the interests upon which the prosperity
of the country rests.
If the movement, inaugurated at Char
lottesville last week, under auspices so IA
vorable, be taken up by the farmers Of Vir-
ginia, as it has been proposed they shall do,
it is only question of time when the pro-
ducing interests in this State, acting in con-
cert with the same class in all parts of the
country, will exercise power for good OF
no secondary character.
Of the representative men now in the ma
tional councils leading in this direction, we
may mention Senator Vance, Of North Car
DINA. In his opinion, Congress has failed
to meet the just demands made upon it in
relation to the agricultural interests Of the
country, and would welcome united move
ment placing those interests on the plane
they should move.

Let our canvassers remember that our
platform justifes tariff for burdening and
beneftting all the people alike. The Re-
publican platform justifes and favors plat
form solely for the benefit Of manufactures,
and creates and fosters monopolies. Incl
dental protection fairly sustains and pro-
tects alike all industries, and divides the
burden of supporting the Government. Di-
rect, positive protection, gives all the bene-
fit to the manufacturer and throws the bur-
den on the customer and producer of ra W
material. Republican protection gives all
the tariff bonus to the manufacturer, Demo-
cratic divides it between the manufacturer,
producer of raw material, and the laborer.
Under the Republican system the people
support the Government, and then pay
large amount to the corporate monopolists
of the North. Under the Democratic, the
Government would be supported by tariff
collection, operating as incidental protec-
ton. The first is fraud, the last is fair

DEATH OF VIM. OTT.--Wm. OFT, ESQ.,,
perhaps the oldest citizen of our town, died
at his home on Tuesday morning last,
about, 4 O'Clock, in the S3rd year of bis age
The cause of his death was old age and
feebleness, and he had been unable to go
about for several weeks. Mr.. OFT was born
in Woodstock, Shenandoah county, but
moved to Harrisonburg in 1866, since which
time he has been engaged under the famil-
lar firm name of VIM. OFT & Sons, in the
mercantile business. In all his transactions
he was honest and straightforward, and
took of no man what was not his due. He
had been member of the Lutheran church
for many years, and consistently kept his
vows. His funeral took place on Wednes-
day evening, Rev. W. G. Campbell, his
pastor, officiating, and his body was laid in
Woodbine cemetery, followed thither by a
large concourse of relatives and friends.
He was good citizen and an honest man,
and has long held a position of esteem in
our community. May he rest in peace

A Terrible Accident.

A most sudden and fatal accident oc-
CURED at the Distillery of Messrs. Fudge &
MeClintic, situated in this county, about
nine miles from Covington, Thursday, Au-
gust 18th, at about p. M, which resulted
in the fearful burning of four persons, one
Of whom has since died.
Mr.. Gus Mann, the distiller and manager
for +. d McC., accompanied by Robert
McClair, cOlOred assistant, were examin-
ing what is known as the doubling keg,"
situated in dark corner of the distillery,
and in order to see the gauge by which
they determine when to turn off the flow
of liquid into the keg, Mr.. Mann struck a
match, something that he has always done
with perfect safety, but which, owing to
the accumulated gas, resulted in a terrific
explosion, igniting the keg and adjacent
barrels of spirits.
At the time of the explosion there were
four persons in the room, all of whom were
badly, and, it is feared, fatally burned:
Mr.. Gus Mann, well known in this county
and popular wherever known; Robert Nc
Clair, a respected and valuable assistant,
whose death has since occurred; and two
little boys, Samuel Carpenter Jr., son of
Mr.. Ben. Carpenter, of Lowmoor, who
was visiting his grandmother, who lives
near the scene of the accident, and Alonzo
Biggs, son of Mr.. Lucien Biggs.
After receiving terrible burns, Mr.. Mann
and the colored boy worked heroically, Nc
Clair running mile to procure assistance
and extinguish the burning building, which
was done before the flames reached the
wareroom in which was stored some twenty
thousand gallons of whiskey.
The little boys had stepped into the
building out of rain, which accounts for
their presence there.
The case of little Sam. Carpenter, which
we learn, as we write this, is particularly
distressing, his father and mother having
two other children very low with diphthe-
ria at Low Moor and their presence there
almost necessity.
The dreadful occurrence has awakened
the most profound feeling throughout our
entire county, and the bereaved ones have
the deepest sympathy of our people.
The loss by the fire was very slight and
can be soon replaced.
Since writing the above, we learn that
the sufferers are still alive, but are ex-
tremely low.-Alleghany Sentinel, 18th.

JOHN RANDOLPH TUcKER.-This gentle
man was triumphantly nominated by the
Democrats of the 10th District for Congress
on last Thursday, at Staunton, by acclama-
ton. This result was reached in spite of
the opposition of some of the strongest
Democratic newspapers of his district, who
have diagreed with Mr.. Tucker on his low
tariff, low tax, ideas. But the people were
with Mr.. Tucker, ndhis nomination shows
how truly the public heart beats in accord
with his on this question. We not only
congratulate Mr.. Tucker on his vindieation
and endorsement, but the people of his dis
trict as well. He won his nomination in an
open, manly, straightforward fight, with
out apologies for the past or concealments
for the'future, and will stand in the next
congress as he has for ten years, the bright
est, boldest and brainiest representative in
Virginia's list of congressmen.-Rockimg-
ham Register.

As IT OUGHT TO BEN the convention
which renominated Mr.. John Randolph
Tucker, Mr. Bocock uttered sentiment
which at this time should find response in
the heart of every Virginian. He said, in
substance, that any man who had been true
on all other issues to his State and people
ought to have no objection raised to his
nomination because of opinions on the tariff
We, who are for low duties, who believe
that low duties are for the good of the whole
country, and for Virginia in particular, have
acted out the sentiment proclaimed by Mr..
Bocock, and we are glad that there has been
manly and honest reciprocity in the case
of Mr.. Tucker.-NorfoM Landmark.
We agree thoroughly with the Landmark
We are glad to see that spirit of liberation
which characterizes the Democrats of Vir-
ginia to-day-Democrats who refuse to al
low one issue to divide them upon all 9TH
ers. Democrats must stand shoulder to
shoulder in opposition to Republicanism
with all its evils and all it's dangers.
