TO hope, would be set aside forever when the
democratic party came into power. I refer TO

representative, the military, and the naval SER
vices, and even the mongrel marine corps. and
the ladies OF their respective families. are all
carefully recognized and provided for, while the
assistant secretaries of the several departments,
the heads OF the numerous bureaus and others
holding high and responsible positions In the
CIVIL service and their families, are wholly and
apparently studiously ignored. Why this un-

CUMBERLAND, October 81, 1885.
Yesterday was a grand day Tor the
Democracy Of old Cumberland. Long
before 10 O'Clock the crowd commenced
gathering at the courthouse, and before

white and colored people your corre-
spondcnt has ever seen there. Hon.
William NJ. Cabell and P. W. McKin-
new we're prompt to keep their appoint
ments, and such speeches as they made
We Of this section seldom hear. have
heard more Of the wild hurrah, but
never have I seen such earnest atten-
tion as was given Fsrmville's and Buck
jngham's gallant sons. Many colored
people with honest conviction are link
ine their destinies with the white peo-
pie and the Democratic party.
The Republicans were addressed by
William NJ. Flanagan. There we're at
his crowd about one hundred negroes
and two or three white people.
Our county is organized, our people
in earnest and are working, and on the
Sd day Of November we are going to
redeem our county and throw off the
yoke Of Mahoneism forever.
The Democrats are thoroughly
aroused and united, and Colonel s. +
