GOVERNOR CAMERON.

Attorney-General Blair in an interview as tc
recent attacks on Gov. Cameron by certain cor.
respondents of Northern republican papers says
he cannot imagine a proper source or correct mo.
tive for such attacks from republican stand
point. He says that he knew Gov. Cameron well
and was willing to endorse his political fidelity
without reserve. He knew the Governors warm
and cordial friendship for himself and Capt. Wise
| and had sufficient evidence that the Governor,
though not on tho stump, had been giving the
ticket earnest and efficient support AS to the
charges against the Governors personal character,
Capt. Blair said it would be an insult to the Gov
ernor and to the State to discuss the question.
The Governor has the confidence of the people,
and has earned it. "Cf course" said Capt. Blair,
II have differed with him sometimes in matters
OF party policy, but l have never doubted the
sincerity of his motives the honesty of his acts
w. F. Sims, chairman of the republican commit
tee of Pittsylvania county has written letter to
the Philadelphia Press denouncing the recent pub
LEGATIONS rejecting on Gov. Cameron. Among
other things Sims says
Unless you retract the insinuations and charges
made against Gov. Cameron you will elect Leo by
$4,000 majority. We think that your CORES
pondent must have your unlimited confidence or
You would not have believed or published his ar-
ticle, and, therefore, We must think that Malone
inspired tho letter. We have been trying to for.
get our personal differences in this canvass, and
the outlook was fair to elect our ticket, but the
Press has COMPOUNDED US. Gov. Cameron has as
many friends in our party as Gen. Malone has.
We have made no attack on Malone. We thought
we had graver matters to attend to, but we cannot
allow our honored Governor to be maligned. 1t
would be far better for us to show our indignation
by staying away from the polls, and we will do so
If cur State chairman sanctions, or our candidate
John S. Wise, does not publicly repudiate your
charges. Governor Camerons letter says that our
election last fall was fairly conducted Gas rule)
and this is strictly true. Gov. Cameron has made
faithful nj Governor and stood like lion in the
path OF Bourbon legislation; his honesty and 10y
atty arc above suspicion. We will not allow him
TO be slandered and unless this outrage is public
y condemned in such manner as to show that
zen; Mahone does not approve, and John s. Wise
condemn, we will stay at home and lot our per-
sonal and political enemies feel our indignation
at the insult offered us through the man We love
and honor speak the sentiments of more than
4ooo o'ican voters OF my county, and write
this without consultation with Governor Came

WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. 10. 1885

WASHINGTON. ID. g., Oct. 10, 1856.
At the regular weekly meeting of the
Virginia democratic association Of this city
last night Mr. Glascock, formerly of Fau-
quier county, made speech in which he
took the ground, and stated it plainly, that
if the democrats Of the District of Columbia
had fault to find with the administration
though he could see no reason why they
should have, they should not make Vir-
ginia the vicarious subject of their dis
pleasure. He felt sure, he said, that Gen.
Lee would be elected, but that there was
some doubt about the Legislature, and that
the money General Malone was receiving
from his Northern friends with which to
buy close counties should be offset by con-
tributions to the democratic campaign fund,
and who could better afford to make those
contributions, he said, than the prosperous
democrats of the District, SO much of whose
trade, came from Virginia. If the District

in the South, and negroes, instead OF In

son, upon every democratic one too.

GENERAL LOGAN calls General r. e.
Lees saddle, upon which General Fitz. Lee
rode at. Lexington, the ''treason-stained
saddle" and says it appears to be the 'lead-
ing card" What sort of saddle was that
upon General Logan, according to reliable
people in his State, rode, when he was re-
cruiting soldiers for the Confederate army :?
The fact that it was the ''losing card' is, to
those who know the General best, the rea-
son why he did not continue to ride upon it.

The Financial Question.

NEW YORK, Oct. 91.-A Washington
dispatch to the World, referring to the
forthcoming presidential message, says:
The administration will take very positive
ground upon the financial question. Mr..
Jordan and Mr.. Manning will recommend
in their report the suspension of the silver
coinage. The president will indorse their
views. Mr.. Jordan will be able to show in
his report that S45, 900. 600 have already
been lost in the attempt to force silver into
circulation. 1t is understood that the policy
of the treasury department will be against
any further calling in of bonds. 1t Is held
that it is not good tinanciering to reduce the
national debt which bears interest of only
per cent. when the current rate is 6. The
Herald's Washington special says: Ex-Chief
Justice Vincent, who was removed from
his judgeship in New Mexico, was among
the callers ON the president to-day. 1t is
understood that Judge Vincent received but
little satisfaction from the president. From
the White house he went over to the de-
partment of justice, where he had an inter-
view with the attorney general which it is
understood was of equally unsatisfactory
character.
