Tobacco.

To the Editor Of The Dispatch:
The lccal.optionists affect to sheer at
the suggestion which has been made IN
your paper that the principle involved
in the present contest applies to the
tobacco trade as well. | am against
local option because believe the prin-
chile it establishes attacks the most
vital interests of the State, and IS
against the suggestions of wide states
manship which require the gradual and
not sudden or violent removal Of evils
in society. Slavery was in 1860 an
unreasonable evil, but the men OF the
South were right in resisting northern
dictation as to the time and manner
of its abolition. 1t was an in
stitution that had been inherited
from our ancestors and was entwined
in our whole social and business struc-
ture. 1t, therefore, required time for
its removal, and a prudent statesman
would not have anticipated events which
were bound to come. But the Adolf
tionists insisted that the thing must be
done nor, forgetting that if the South
Welded upon this point there was no
safety for any southern interest what
ever from northern tyranny. The re-
suit was the greatest civil war on re-
cord; a million men brought to I'M
timely deaths; the Constitution over
turned and made mockery, and labor
and currency swept away by its disas-
trous termination.
! We want time upon this question. 1t
involves confscation Of property, which
has been permitted and even encour-
aged from time immemorial but above
end beyopd all, for one fear the prin-
ciple underneath. Danger to the to-
bacco interest is no chimera Of my
imagination. Any one who has the
curiosity to visit the State Library will
see upon its walls the proclamation OF
King James /. in 1880 against the
raising of tobacco in Virginia and the
other English colonies. The King pro-
nounced the encouragement of the trade
as q subject worthy Of his princely
care, "that the world might not justly
tax us that the manners of the people
are endangered by the licentious use O.
tobacco" characterizing it as san I'M
measurable expense Of so vain and use
less commodity, which ought to be
used as a drug only and not so vainly
and wantonly as an evil habite Of late
times has brought it into" Are moi
the arguments Of King James the argu
) ments CT the local-optionists?
candidly admit that do not concur
in many Of the articles against loca
= option which have crowded your paper
They are most Of them ron-Seqmiturs
And the same thing may be said o
I, nearly all the arguments on the Other
: side. But the principle of the thing il
! sufficient for me, and on it | mean t
act. VIRGINIAN.

Rev. A. Woodward was last night in
stalled as pastor Of Mount Calvary Bap'
fist church, in Ettrick. The occasion at
tracted a large assemblsge of the PEG.
pie of the neighborhood and many from
the city. Rev. j. NJ. Pitcher delivered
this address to the new pastor, and Rev.
NJ. l.. Wood the address charge to the
church.
Counsel for George Clark tcolored),
who was convicted in the Hastings
Court yesterday Of the murder OF his
wife in November last. with verdict
Of eighteen years in the penitentiary,
asked and obtained delay of sentence
for o few days, with view OF taking
m appeal to the Supreme Court. a
motion was made to set aside
the verdict and grant a new
trial, on the ground that the
verdict was not in accordance
with the evidence, and that while
. Jury was being empsnelled some Of
those who had been accepted were al
lowed TO walk about without being in
charge of an officer Of the court. This
motion was overruled. 1t was not
shown that any Of those who had been
accepted had spoken to any person on
the subject of the trial. The general
impression is that Clark should be sat
isfied with the verdict.
A little son of DR.. John R. Chappell,
residing on Halifax street, while swing
ing on pole several days ago, fell to
the ground and was very severely IN
jured. His body was partially para.

be remained in an unconscious condi'
ticn until to-day.
A few citizens have filed coupons
with the treasurer for proof of genuine

A New Haven Conn. telegram says:
Father Lynch. Of st. Peters church, in
psnbury, has very good dicipliue, aud
when moral suasion fails he resorts to
old-fashioned methods. Last night he
heard young man talking rather rude
ly and in spirit Of levity in froat Of
the church. He seized the young man
by the collar and gave him sound
cas:igation with the cane he generally
carries. The young man to-day ac-
kpowledged that he deserved the fog

during Holy Week.

ABINGDON, Va, April 23.-Ihe re-
Turns from al Of the six districts in which
the election on the liquor question was
held yesterday came in to-day. ABB
ingdon district gives the wet ticket a
net majority Of US, and kinderhook
district gives the same ticket majority
Of 6S. The dry ticket has msjorities
in the four remaining districts as fol-
lows: Glade-spring district. 262
North.Fork district, Al; Holston dis
tict. AZ, and Ssltyille district 10.
That Undertook went "wst" is
suyprise, as it was conceded by the anti
iocsl.optionists here last night that thi.
district would 60 I" dry" in all probs'
bility. The fact is, the license-mer
concentrated their forces and efforts
upon Abingdon district, and for the
most part len the country districts to
take care Of themselves.
The fight is TO be carried on in the
Goodson district, in which the election
will be held June l7th, and the license
men are bold in saying that they will
carry that district by majority Of 300.
As matters now stand the temperance
men have net majority of l26 in the
six districts where the vote has been
taken. The returns will be officially
esnvassed by the commissioners Of cleo
ton tomorrow. However, it is not ex.
pscied that any material change in ths
figures given win result therefrom.

Axe.
Especial Telegram 10 the Dispatchl
WyTHEyILLE, VA, April ga
horrible tragedy occurred in Crocketts
Cove, about seven miles from this place,
early yesterday morning. A negro
boy named John Brown, about seven
teen years Of age, had been living with
family Of the same race for several
months past, having no other home.
Before daylight Thursday morning
while the father was away and the
mother and child eighteen months
Of age were the only other oc-
cupants Of the house, he secured an
axe and with single blow Drained the
child as it lay sleeping in the bed. Inc
mother was awakened by the screams
and struggles of the infant, but before
she could seize the boy he had made
good his escape. Officers were put on
his track as soon as possible, and that
night about II O'Clock they discovered
him in Bland county secreted in
straw.stack. They brought him to
wytheyille and lodged him in all.
According to the mothers version the
boy had taken box from the house the
evening before and made wagon Of it,
When she returned that night and dis
covered what be had done she threaten-
ed him with a whipping the next morn
ing. She bad been in the habit OF
sleeping in front, but that night, owing
10 the illness of the child, she had placed
it in front. 1t was too dark for the
boy TO discover the change. lie claims
that he was striking at a snake at the
head of the bed, and was scared away
by the woman's threats. The occur
ence created great excitement in the
reigbborhood, and lynch law is talked
Of. The child at last accounts was
alive. but will die, as the skull was
crushed in and the brain exposed.
