Senator Riddleberger sent the
following to the editor Of the Mdcr-
Appeal :
Some time ago there appeared in
your paper what purported to be
statements from a "dispatcb,' sent
from Washington to some northern
journals, concerning my deport-
ment at circus exhibition in this
place.
l did not see the original "dis-
patch,n nor did / know of the COM
ments in your paper, based upon
it, until it recently fell under my
eye as reproduced in other Virginia
papers.
l then requested friend, who is
a resident of your city, to call your
attention to the wrong that had
been done me, believing you would
accept his statement and make
proper reparatiOn. am now adj
vised that the gentleman referred
to has been to Petersburg but once
since, and then forgot the matter.
If you could believe me capable
of such conduct as was alleged
against me, and that | did depOrt
myself as set forth in said eds
patch" | have no right to complain
of your comments. Therefore l
shall discard them, and submit to
your sense of justice the real facts:
The "fifteeH men" you mention
consisted of myself and six Of my
seven children.
The starting point which by in
nuendo you make a place OF bad
resort, were the rooms occupied by
my entire family.
The cheap tickets which were
bought and turned ont " bogus
were purchased by me Of the regu
lar agent within five PAGES Of the
entrance to the canvas, and paid
nine dollars for them inCludin0 re-
served seats.)
At the entrance we were refused /
admission because, as we were in +.
formed, the canvas was full. On /
looking around | saw that tickets /
we're being sold as rapidly as when
| purchased mine. / reported this
fraud to policeman standing near,
and then reported the policeman,
whom it subsequently appeared was
innocent Of all knowledge of the
fact that the tickets did not secure
did not even ask for, much less
lemand, a return Of my money, bnt
We all quietly returned, some two
Dr. more miles, 10 the house where
he balance Of our family awaited
rs.
Now, NJ. Editor, hope it will
De your pleasure to ask such Of
-FOUR contemporaries as have copied
-FOUR article to make correction of
he foul libel which is in keeping
With the character of some unknown
friend here, who never loses an OPP
,Ortunity to perpetrate Just such

A Man Dies and Comes 10 Life Again.

A well,kuown and truthful gen

ed the closing and solemn scene of
death. He represents that his
spirit passed into the other world,
and went into the immediate pres.
ence of God. He saw hell ; it was
not a pls ce Of fire and birthstone,
but seemed to be a dark gulf, so
black that it could not be describ-
ed, and for awhile this seemed to
be the place Of his final doom,
which filed him with intensely
painful forebOdings. While in this
condition, he saw one like INTO the
son of man, who appeared as his
Savior. His appearance was the
perfection of beauty ; q halo Of re-
splendent glory beamed around his
brow. lie spake these words, Thou
shalt not enter into that dark abode
thy sins are all forgiven. Then
he was bid to look upon tho heav-
enly world aud all of its glories, so
bright and beautiful, burst forth
upon him. he was happy beyond
degree, Then his spirit was re-
manded back to earth and babe to
enter his body again, which pre-.
senteditself to him as q loathsOme
corpse. His spirit lowered around
it with hatred to enter into 1t
again. lie felt he must obey the
command aud he came back to earth
again, though with reluctance, The
man is now living, and will verify
this statement. J. j, J.,

Mr.. NORRIsoH's pREDIcAuENT.

Mr.. Morrison needs sympathy.
He is more frank and manly than
his party, and was doubtless pro-
foundly ashamed of his associates
when he was forced to make lame
excuses for their double dealing, in
the debate on Tuesday. What a
melancholy predicament--spokes-
man of a set of cowardly deceivers,
who stole into Office and power by
cheating the country 1t only rubs
salt into open and bleeding wounds
when Mr.. Randall mentions that
he, being known as a Protectionist,
was continually besought, during
the last campaign, TO deliver pro-
tective Democratic speeches in
Eastern districts, In order to help
his party through and lift Congress.
sional candidates out of the mire,
and that the free.trade leaders had
not been invited to speak in those
districts. What a cruel thing the
truth Is sometimes
Poor Mr.. Morrison, at the head
of the four.6fths of the Democratic
House, knows that he has behind
him the kind Of men who consent
ed to filch a Presidential victory
by false pretences. 1t was never
Mr.. Morrison's wish that the party
should thus dishonor itself. lie
wanted to speak out, like an honest
man, in the national platform. But
the scared creatures who then made
up certain of the Democratic dele
cations did not dare to utter the
truth. They insisted on having a
platform which they could pretend
was for protection in New York,
Connecticut and New Jersey, while
Mr.. Watterson could pretend it
was for free trade in Kentucky,
and Mr.. Morrison in Illinois. The
result is that Mr.. Randall now
boldly asserts that President Cleve-
land would not have been elected
if the platform had not been so con-
trived that Democrats could pre-
tend to be protectionists in Eastern
States, while Mr.. Morrison con-
temptuously records his belief that
an honest and manly appeal to the
people on a free-trade platform
would have Jared better.
The facts are with Mr.. Randall.
The party did make believe that it
was in favor OF protection. Its
platform was meant to help that
deception. President Cleveland
himself, particularly in his Newark
speech, went as far as any man
could to help that deception. Smith
Weed, and others near him, gave
their solemn confidential assurance
to leading manufacturers that Mr..
Cleveland and the party could be
trusted to protect their industries.
One has only to contrast his speech
es then, aud their pledges in his
behalf, with bis letter to Mr.. Man
ming, to see how truthfully Mr.. |
Randall states the dishonorable |
position of his party. 1t is no
wonder that Mr.. Morrison gets |
angry and Disguised. Surely it is
enough to make a man sick of !
public life, to be obliged to lead |
such set of creatures.

Campbell q Baker have refused to submit tn this arbitrary action and will, Il is said. ap- peal the case to the courts for final de- cision.
 This is a matter which directly inter ests every tax payer ID the county. and the result will be looked for with anxiety by all owners of personal prop erty.

Snhferranenn Streams

A circumstance happened the other day at Rev. U.

NIT, Gregory was having his well deepened. or rather trying to do so, and managed to get out considerable gravel and small boulders of spherical shape, indicating that be hsd reached the ancient bed of the river. The water came into the well with such strong force thst the pumps could not lower II, and & strong current was felt. The singular circumstance was the discovery oi several fish in the well that had surely come from the sub terrsnesn stream. One of the fish was caught and i. proved to be the ordinary minpow that sbounds so plentifuilY in the Santa Cruz. The water ID the well IS entirely different from any yet found near the city.
