THE ELECTION IN VIRGINIA..

The election last Tuesday in Virginia
was peaceful. quiet, and orderly through
out the Commonwealth. The Democratic
tickets, State and legislative, received
large colored vote, and for the first time in
the history of Staunton co!ored Democrat
ic workers were seen openly working for
the ticket around the polls. Throughout
the State the Democrats neither bulldt zsd
nor cheated the black man, but simply
voted him. 1t was not hard to do, for
that voter is fast finding out that he can
find friends in the Democratic party
who will look after his interest as closely
as the Republican party ever did when it
had the power. which has now departed
from it forever. And further. the Dsmo-
cratic party intends to exhaust every
penalty of the law in the punishment of
those black men who propo Sc to per ecuie
OF annoy men of their color 10 voting
the Democr tt ticket. 1t int DIS at any
cost Of time or money to see that colored
Democrats are protected in their right to
vote their ticket just as freely and with as
llttle molestation as white Repu, licans
vote their ticket. The day is past in Vir-
giDia when either black Usan or ii white
man can be prosecuted because be votes
for the patty of his choice. whether it be
the Republican or the Democratic party.

this would do we'll TO think over the nat

DEATH OF GEN. McCLELLAN,

Gen. Geo. B. Mcclellan who, in the lat
ter part Of 1861, when Gen. Winfield
Scott retired, Was Commander-in-C Chief Of
al! the armies of the United States, died
suddenly of heart disease, last week, at his
nome in New Jersey. Perhaps, the most
remarkable thing about his military
career was his ability in the midst of
grave disasters to IT tain the affection and
confidence Of his soldiers After his dis
.,sters around Richmond he, though re-
;ieved from command, was again put in
command to fight the battle of Antletam :,
and won it. TIE politicians thought he had
had not followed up his victory as he ought
and he was again removed and Burnside,
who was TO meet with terrible disaster,
put in his place. He was next, the Dem
ocratic candidate for President in 1854, get
ting twenty-one electoral votes. Since then
he has been Supsrin tendent of docks and
piers of New York and also Governor of
New jersey. He wasa man of lofty char
acter and his military reverses never
stained his patriotic name.

of the Senate against his own State, His
hopes now lay outside OF Virginia and with
the National Republican party and on the
success of that he staked his all. In 1884, he
was again in the field as IA supporter
OF Blaine. Those Republicans who had
found his bossism SO intolerable as to force
them away from him at State elections,
re-jOined him in that fight. But the 81
lent and ever watchful Barbour was still
at the head Of the Democracy, and again
inflicted second defeat upon him. The
situation had now become DIES erate; III
short twelve months he had both lost his
power in the State and seen his pow
erful ally swept out CT the White House.
The next Campaign was to involve his own
political life or death. To him that next
campaign, just ended, has been pretty
much foclorn hope. and full Of perils
that had not existed before In former
struggles he had the Administration pat
ronage under his coutrol. In former strng-
giles the black man was still under the do.
fusion that the supremacy of the Dem &C.
raey in this State and Nation meant
damage to him. In former struggles he
had been able TO make some sort OF use of
Readlustment and the question of the
Schools. Now, the whole seaae was
changed.
The National Administration was Dem
ocratic, and his enemy. The bls ok man
had had an experience of Demoeratic SUI
mr. nd
from it. The Readjustmsnt question had
fired at the breech and che Republican
U. S. Judges were trying to enforce the
old Funding Bill while she Democrats were
enforcing the Riddleheager bill. The re-
port Of the Republieaa Superintendent OF
Public Schools showed that the Public
Schools were prospecting even more under
Democratic cOatrOl than they were under
Republican. Vule. Where to find ground
to make d successful campaign must have
puzzled even as astute politician as
Malone. But the absehce Of issues could
net Sa counted this tine, Cor the real is

reached its doors he was go chilled he could
hardly speak. The man who owned the house
proceeded to the cupboard, and taking out 8
jug and two glasses, asked the salesman &c
help himself. The salesman declined, bui
asked for hot tea. "Well," said the country
