A Negro Tramp's Performanee-Attemp tcd
Suicide OF Captain PARCEL, &c.
correspondence of the Rich mond Dispatch.
SEPTEMBER 81, 1885.
Moses Davis, an old colored man, has
watermelon-patch near the iron
bridge two miles east Of CharlOttes-
vile, and had gotten in some cash by
the sale Of his fruit. On Saturday a
negro tramp came along, knocked old
Moses on the head, and relieved him Of
his pocket-book, containing some 500.
The tramp came up the road toward
Charlottesville, and was intercepted by
Mr.. Gay, when he ran up the side of
Monticello and escaped. Mr.. Gay sent
a bullet after the scoundrel. The ne
gro's flight was so precipitate that he
left his overcoat behind. Old Moses
recovered from the blow on the head,
but the results of the financial blow
will linger for some time.
Captain Taylor PARCEL, yard
master at the Virginia Midland juno
ton, attempted TO commit suicide ABOUT
I o'clock this morning. Your cor
respondent was promptly on the ground,
but could not learn what had induced
PARCEL to try to take his life. The at
tempt was made before he had arisen
from his bed, and the instrument used
was pistol, with which he had fired
into his side several bullets. The
wounds are severe. PARCEL was labor
ing under fearful excitement, and when
his wife brought their two-months-old
babe to his bedside he wept like a
child.

A Good sign.

The Washington Republican admits
that Il leads forlorn hope when 1t adj
mi,s that s.with three or four conspicu-
Gus exceptions in some Of the larger
cities--such as the Philadelphia Press,
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette, and
New York Tribune--the opponents OF
Republican sentiment throughout the
North appear to have little concern Tor
the result Of the Virginia campaign"
True to the letter is what the Repnb-
bean says on this point. The waving
Of the bloody shirt has failed to arouse
the prejudices Of most Of the northern
masses. The people last year ordered
that flag to be furled. The Mahoneites
in this State are belated. As Mr..
TONES once said. the circus is over
and the performers have gone. The
election of GROVER CLEVELAND to
be President of the United States put
an end to sectional strife. The
people Of the North are not
such fools as TO believe that
the ascendency Of the Democratic
party is going to damage the country
in spite Of the fact that the Democratic
party is already in the ascendency and
"all is WE'LL" Nevertheless, 1t is
crying shame that there should be men
in Virginia ready to take up these
WORKOUT and discarded cries Of the
enemies Of the South and Of the Demo-
cratic party, and use them in the pre-
sence of the very people whom these
cries are intended to keep in state OF
to the northern Republic
cans.
"Whom the gods would destroy
they first make mad" Destruction
awaits MALONE and his followers.

Effects or Her Injuries. nc.
CORRESPONDENCE ofthe Richmond Dispatch.
NORFOLK, September 81, 1885.
The Dispatch correspondent inter.
viewed Captain Joe Sam. Brown, super
intendent Of transportation Of the Sea-
board and Roanoke railroad, this morn
ing relative to the rumor prevalent on
Saturday that the Pennsylvania Central
railroad had bought controlling inter-
est in the Seaboard road. Captain
Brown assured us that he had heard
nothing whatever that warranted him
in saying that such purchase had
been effected, neither docs he believe
it, be said. The Pennsylvania road
owns the New York, Philadelphia and
Norfolk railroad running down the
Eastern Shore and connecting in Ports
mouth with the Seaboard road by
ferry.
The Independent Republicans Of the
county are really in earnest. Their
call for convention to nominate can
didates for the Legislature designates
the Goth instant. All the Straightouts
are in the movement, with considera-
BILE sprinkling Of former Mahoneites.
Township meetings to elect delegates to
the convention will be held on the 2Sth.
Ex-senator N. p. Rue is likely to be
the candidate for the Senate, and Jacob
Reed (colored), late clerk in the custom
house, for the House of Delegates. 1t
is without doubt true that the breach is
wide and widening among the Republi-
cans of Norfolk county, and all are not
disposed to submit to the Malone whip
any longer.
Mrs. Andrew Dozier, whs was so
shockingly mangled bya runaway acct
dent on Chapel street few days ago,
died yesterday from her injuries, hav-
ing suffered greatly.
A young man named Nottingham, of
this city, recently released from the
insane asylum as cured, attempted to
commit suicide yesterday by leaping
from the train coming from Virginia
Beach. lie was considerably hurt.
The trial of DR.. John d. Pitts for the
murder of DR.. Walter commenced IN
the County Court to-day with Hon.
John Neely for the defence and Hon.
John Goode assisting the prosecution.
Among the witnesses for the Common
wealth present is Mrs. Walter, the wife
of the murdered man. The plea for
the defence that four terms had passed
without trial was denied, and jury
was cmpanelled. Two of the brothers
Of the prisoner are present.
A. A. Mccullough, Jr., son Of one of
our most prominent merchants, A. A.
Mccullough, died yesterday of lockjaw,
caused by running thorn in his foot
while at play. This is the third death
from jockjaw here within the last six
weeks.

exhausted, to hold fast and they would
get assistance. McElrath himself, al
though the stronger Of the two, was
also nearly exhausted, but by strong
efforts he managed TO climb up the
beach and reach the Denning home
stead. II was now o'clock in
the morning and dark. McElrath
failed to arouse any one in the
house. Then he sought the residence Of
Mr.. Saunders, near by, and succeeded
in getting them up. They immediately
started to render assistance to his help
less companion, but when the shore
was reached it was found Mclaughlin
was dead. All possible effort was
made to resuscitate him, but 1t was too
late. lie was about twenty-five years
Of age, the son of tobacconist Of that
name at Fishkill. McElrath is Of about
the same age. He is all right, and was
seen on the streets Of Fishkill to-day.
An inquest will be held.

A Severe FaIl-Ths Great Democratic Rally

Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch.
DIANA MILLS, Sept. Is, 1885.
Mr.. S. W. Brown, farmer, living
between Diana Mills and Gold Hill,
fell yesterday morning from one Of the
upper tiers Of his tobacco-barn, about
twehty-four feet, and was nearly killed.
lie fell on pile Of shingles, and his
face and head were badly cut and
bruised. He is reported better to-day,
and it is hoped that he will recover.
The grand Democratic rally on last
Monday and the speaking at the court
house made fine impression in favor
Of the party. The Democrats seem to
be aroused to an extent never known
before, and are confident of success.
We are having very dry weather now +,
for the first time since June. 1t has
been the best season for oats, corn, hay.
and tobacco that we have had in this
neighborhood for many years. The
present dry spell is favorable for saving
the fodder and late cuttings of hay, as
we'll as the tobacco, which is generally
agood crop. A good deal has been
cut and housed this week.
A good many hogs have died this
summer from cholera. Last year hogs
were plenty, and but little corn made
10 fatten them on. This season we have
an unusually good crop Of corn, and but
few hogs to fatten.
A mill for distilling pennyroyal has
been established in our neighborhood,
and is in full operation. 1t is hoped
that the enterprise will prove success
full. III.

A True View.

The Ohio State Register radical
Republican,, in common with most of
the Ohio Republican papers, manifests
great interest in the Virginia contest.
The Register says;
"Should Virginia be carried by the
Republicans this year, nothing is more
certain than that West Virginia, North
Carolina, and Tennessee will follow
suit in 1886, thus badly fracturing the
solid South. Republican ascendency
in Virginia, therefore, portends the de-
feat and dissolution Of the Democratic
party as a national organization in
1885,"
And is it not proper deduction that
the converse of the proposition is equal
ly true? Suppose we state the con-
verse, which is, Should Virginia be car
ried by the Democrats this year, no.
thing is more certain than that West
Virginia, North Carolina, and Tennes-
see will follow suit in 1886, thus main
tanning the solidity Of the South. Dem
ocratic ascendency in Virginia, there
fore, portends the defeat and dissolu-
ton Of the Republican party as ma.
tional organization in 1888. We think
the zeal Of the Register outruns its
discretion. 1t could not have con.
structed paragraph better calculated
to impress the Virginia Democrats with
the great responsibility that rests upon
them in the present crisis. We thank
the Register. Any logical manipulation
to which we subject its proposition
develops an incentive to the Virginia
Democrats to be satisfied with nothing
short Of sweeping victory.

ALL LOST SAVE ONE MAN.
A SOLITARY Sailor from the Wrecked Barge
Orient Reaches Land alive.

A SOLITARY Sailor from the Wrecked Barge
Orient Reaches Land Awe.
A Galveston Texas special Of the
Goth says About noon yesterday a
fisherman came to town and reported
that man had been taken from the
gulf alive last night in the height of the
storm, and was being cared for by a
neighboring farmer.
A Herald correspondent visited the
lone survivor, and found him at house
located about five miles down on the
island. lie proved to be Dederick
Chusele. the man who, on Friday night,
jumped from the Inflated barge Orient
into the small boat that went to the
rescue of the crew during a heavy sea
and violent gale which prevailed all
that night. Chuselle's rescue seems to
have been almost a miracle. His pa
thetic statement was told with diff
Guilty, he being so weak that he could
scarcely speak.
The crew Of the Orient, Chuselle
said, consisted Of Captain Griswold, an
old man named George, boy named
Jimmie, sailor named Bill, and Chu-
selle. When the barge began to go to
pieces they lowered a small iron yawl
over the stern, put the ships papers in
yalise, and old George jumped into
the yawl. Just then the wreck swung
around and swamped the yawl, and
George was hauled on board with diff
Guilty. BY this time the old barge was
fast settling and all hands ran forward.
Nothing, said Chuselle, could stand the
terrible force of the sea. Every wave
washed over the wreck and they chung
to the rigging for dear life.
When they saw the yawl put out
from the tug Ranger they thought they
were all about to be saved, and Cap
tain Griswold kept encouraging his
men to hold on and be brave. When
the yawl got under the bow Of the
barge, and the crew Of the boat sang
out to those on board to jump, Chuselle
heard them, and Immediately jumped,
but as soon as he got into the yawl she
cspsized. His account of how he
drifted about for ten hours within
sight of land how the waves washed
him almost ashore, then carried him
back five miles or more, was a thrilling
tale of human suffering and endurance.
lie drifted twenty miles, with single
life-preseryer, in a raging sea that an
ordinary swimmer could not buffet for
five minutes.
Chuselle has no hopes of ever again
seeing Captain Griswold or any of his
sailor companions. They could not
have held on many hours after Chuselle
left them, and as nothing but the bare
masts could be seen at the wreck to-
day it is regarded as certain that Cap
tain Griswold and his crew are drowned.
Yesterday the heavy rain-storm,
which has prevailed for nearly week,
ceased. The rainfall during the pre-
ceding twenty-four hours was 20-l00
inches. The city is partially inundated.

from Exhaustion.
A Newburg On. w. special says :
Two young men, named Frank S. Nc
Laughlin and Andrew McElrath, had q
terrible adventure last night on the
Hudson river, which resulted in the
death of Mclaughlin. They lived at
Fishkill. and came over here to the
'Poughkeepsie and Newburg ball match
and the County Fas. At ii o'clock
last night they attempted to return to
the opposite side Of the river in their
small boat. When nearly across the river
their boat was upset by the swells of a
passing steamer, going north. Both
young men were thrown into the river.
Their oars were lost, and nothing was
left to propel their frail bark. With
their hands they padded for over three
hours, and finally reached Denning's
Point, which is opposite Duchess june
ton, on the Hudson-River railroad, and
about two miles south Of Fishkill land

tide then took them down, and whom
they reached shallow water in shore

touched bottom.

He then walked ashore, pushing the
boat with Mclaughlin in it to the
beach. In the mean time he pleaded

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
There probably are in all of the
counties Of the State registrars who
have been appointed postmasters, and
in consequence have forfeited the State
office. Allow me to suggest that at
tention be called to the fact, that the
electoral boards Of the several counties
and cities may at once examine their
lists. fill all vacancies, and make neces-
sary corrections. The clerks of the
counties should see that their seals are
in order. There should be no repeti-
ton of the Gloucester affair, on ac-
count of which Judge Garrison was
denied his seat in Congress for
months by the ruling of the Ma
hone board. 1t is remarkable, not
notwithstanding the frequency of cleo
tons, that the officers conducting them
often fail to make out their returns in
proper form, or fail to sign the forms
when provided for signature. The i'm
portance Of the ensuing election can
scarcely be fully estimated in all its far
reaching effects on the State. Will the
people awake to the gravity and mag
nitude Of the occasion?
Respectfully, &C., A. KoINER.
