Mr. ouav's Discovery.

Mr.. QUAY, Of Pennsylvania, has
made . discovery, and rises to an
nounce it IN tho words following
"JEFF. DAVIS has nominated BLAINE
and LOGAN for 1885," II this be so,
every good man in this country, ire
spective Of the section from which he
may hail, will be compelled to &C.
knowledge that he owes Mr.. DAVIS a
dsbt Of gratitude. Further, with the
exception Of the BLAINE organs,
the Republican press will have
TO accord Mr.. DAVIS the
credit Of having done the country great
service. BLAINE and LOGAN repre-.
sent the issues Of quarter of GEN.
tury ago. At the last presidential cleo
ton the people and the independent
and the moderate Republican papers Of
this country sat down on those
issues with impressive emphasis.
After BLArNE's Augusta speech
even some Of the papers that had
supported him declared that 1t was
fortunate thing for the country thai
b had been defeated. The nomination
Of the old ticketip 1888 would not only
call forth another emphatic declaration
that ssctioualism has had its day, bu
do what Is to DO desired almost a
much--6 finally dispose Of BLAINE ant
LOGAN.

The bsse.bal fever has struck this
city at last, resulting in the formation
of crack professional team, which has
won every game yet played. On Mon
day the Lynchburgs beat the Richmond
Club by II to 5, and on the following
day repeated the performance by score

form q State league, with clubs from
Richmond, Lynchburg, Petersburg,
Danville, Norfolk, and Hampton as
members.
The rejection of Postmaster Button
by the Senate was not a great surprise
to those who know of Mahone's bitter
hatred of that gentleman. The ques-
ton now discussed is, What is the
President going to do about it? 1t is
contended by some that be will renomi-
nate Mr.. Button; by others it is held
that the President must make another
appointment. Already numerous can
didates for the place are spriDging up.
Before the Democratic primary in
this city many prophets Of i'll predicted
that everybody would stay at home,
ard that the smallness Of the vote
would encourage the Republicans to
make such united effort as would re-
suit in the capture by them Of the mu-
pieipal government. On the contrary,
the vote at the primary was surprisingly
large, and if the Republicans intend to
make q fight they are keeping their
purpose close secret. But the Demo-
Gratis are not going to be surprised.
The party is in fighting trim.
There have been no significant va
riations in the tobacco market here

have been sold up to the present time

The Proper Spirit.

Yesterday we heard one OF the de-
feated aspirsnts for nomination on the
Council ticket remark that no intended
70 vo.ksuntil sunset on the 9th for the
election of the whole ticket. That IS
the spirit which should animate every
Democrat. That is the spirit which
has contributed so much to. the success
Of the Democratic party Of Richmond
IN the past, and upon which We must
depend in future If Richmond is to con-
tinue To be blessed with good govern
ment. That is the spirit general ex-
hibition Of which on the part Of Demo-
Gratis will effectually dispose Of any
effort of the Republican party to draw
encouragement from the fact that the
vote of Wednesday was compare
lively light. There can be no
question that . large number Of
tried Democrats who will support the
ticket on election day did not vote in
tho Primary. Whatever may have
been the reasons Of such, they made
mistake. However, there is no use
crying over spilled milk. The duty OF
Wednesday is . thing that belongs to
the past. 1t is the duty Of to-day and
the future that confronss US. Let oil
Democrats, whether they participated
in the Primary or not, make
It 80 plain that he who runs may read
that they intend to give the ticket
hearty endorsement. Let it be pro-
claimed with no uncertain sound that
the party organization is to be pre-
served, and that Richmond is to con-
tinue to be the stronghold Of Virginia
Democracy. Take no chances, but
from now until the day Of election pre-
sent IN unbroken front to the Republi-
cans, who are ever on the alert to
sssail any weak point in your lines.
Elect your ticket by foil vote, and
then, rs we said before the Primary, if
you have grievances redress them with
in your own camp. None know better
than the Republicans that it is much
easier to preserve an unbroken line
than to rally one that has once been
broken; consequently they may be ex-
pected to do their best to promote
continuance Of any lack Of Democratic
unity, however slight, that may have
developed prior to the Primary. Watch
them, Democrats Of every class. and
teach them that they reckon without their
host. Give your enemies to understand
that even if you have had differences
among yourselves it is an insult to your
intelligence and patriotism for them to
assume that they can profit by those
differences. In . word, give them to
understand that above oil things you
are Democrats, and that love for your
city, regard for her future prosperity
and undying opposition to Republican
methods lift you above oil other con-
siderations.
