GENERAL ROBERT d. LILLEY.
PROCEEDINGS ADOPTED BY THE SESSION OF
THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF
STANTON, NOVEMBER 81, 1886.

We record, with profound sorrow for our
loss the death of our late associate General
Robert D. Lilley. Appointed delegate to
Synod, he went to Richmond on Tues day
the 9Th. While participating in the business OF
the body OF its first meeting. be suddenly be-
came ILL., and died on Friday the 18th. His
remains were brought home for interment,
and the funeral services were conduct by
the pastor. in the church. on Sunday evening,
the Nth, the officers OF the church and many
other sympathizing friends escorting the
body to Thornrose Cemetery.
Gen. Lilley was born and reared to manhood
In Greenvilie. Augusta county. While still
very young man, he was called by duty, as
be believed, into the Southern army. 1t is not
Tor as TO eulogize his gsliantry asa soldier. All
his eompatriots testify TO his bravery and the
empty sleeve of his coat bore silent testimony
30 what he had suffered. Ofhis deeds he sell
dom spoke. and never Boosted.
We knew him In better and more tender
relation. he united with this church, Decsn-
Der a. 1859, on certificate from ,BeEns. church:
and on the 18th OF March. 1880, he was ordained
and installed a Ruling Elder. His business
required him to be absent from home most OF
the time; but his frequent returns were always
cheering and helpful to his associates. AL
though mingling constantly with people of the
world, he never forgot or compromised his
duty 10 God. There was no concealment OF
his colours All men with whom he came IN
contact knew On which side he stood Modest
ly. but f1rmely, he always maintained his
positions, testifying everywhere his faith in
the Lord Jesus Christ. His gentleness was
almost feminine, showing that manly courage
is consistent with the utmost Availability
No Ill natured remark ever escaped his lips
His religious zeal appeared never to flag
Wherever he was-abroad as well as at home
he sought christian work. He was indie
fatigable IN his attendance at prayer-meeting
and Sunday School, as well as more public
church services; and often led in prayer and
delivered short address TheSabbath before
his death he taught Sunday School class in
the morning. and in the afternoon, Indictment
as the cay was, went to Ofivet Chapel In
search of other employment He did what he
could.
His body rests In peace. awaiting the resur
rection of the Just; and his soul, we doubt not,
is with the redeemed in heaven.

From very sensible communication,

From very sensible communication,
signed Conservative, published in the
Richrseud State of the 18th inst, we copy
the concluding paragraph as follows
THE President surely has done his duty
to the party as we'll as to the country-at
least SO far as he can be judged by his con-
duct here in Virginia At the instance of
the Democratic members, not Mahoneite
or Republican has been left in office;
they have all been made to give place to
Democrats, save such as hold department
positions and are protected by the civil-ser
vice rules. 1t is hard, indeed, that the
Presden. should be expected to allow the
representatives to fill all positions vacant
and vacated at their instance and then be
held responsible for the disaffection of those
who fail to get offices, as well as for the
Door appointments that are made. Vir-
GINA never before-not even before the
war, when she was power in the land
had as many of her sons in good Govern
ment positions as to-day, and yet the un-
grateful cry of those who should know
better is, Cleveland did it! Far better look
to the want Of organisation and other causes
for the true explanation of the late disaster.
Cleveland had nothing to do with it, and is
q tower of strength to the party throughout
the country"
Staunton spectator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1849-1896, 1886-11-24

In this part of the State tho republicans
have been turned out and democrats have
been pat in their places, but the trouble is
that there were too many democrats for the
offices, and as somebody said about it, the
problem was to distribute five offices among
ten applicants. Nearly every applicant
who failed to get the position he wanted
joined the army of General Apathy, and
too frequently took his friends along with
him. We heard no complaints against
President Cleveland about his civil service
reform, because ''the rascals" had all been
turned out in this section, but there were
many complaints from people who failed to
get in.
1t is bad democracy, we confess, that men
should let the party severely alone because
they are disappointed, but there are few
of us who can sacrifice pride and private
feelings to party and 1t is hard for man to
put aside his grievances and enthuse for
the party which has disappointed him. But
the time is not distant when all bad feeling
will have died out and in the next election,
We feel sure that the democracy will march
out again in unbroken ranks and vote for
the grand old party.-DGnville Register.
