POLITICAL CONVENTIONS.
The Democrats at Norfolk To-Day
The Republicans ut Peters
hur- Tomorrow.

The two parties meet in state Convention IN
this State TO-DAY and tomorrow, and next
month the two National Conventions Will be
held. For the moment at least the Norfolk
Convention holds first place in the eye.Of the
public, and 20 that city the Richmond dele
gates and many other Democrats proceeded
Yesterday. Most OF them left on the O'Clock
special. The Old Dominion Club went down
in a body, and with them the Governor,
United States Senator John W. Daniel, Hon.
Charles T. O'Ferrall, and numerous Others.
The club carried with them Iardela's band,
and have secured quarters at the Atlantic
Hotel.
The convention will be called to order at
II NJ. to-day.
TIE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
The Republican Convention representing
that party i'm this State will meet at Peters
burg tomorrow at noon and great political
interest centres in II. inasmuch as Mr. John
5. Wise has raised the standard OF revolt
against General Mahone-at least that Is the
wav the Little General' evidently looks at
IL, while Mr.. Wise's friends say that he will
submit to the will Of the convention. IL,
however. remains 10 be seen whether Mr..
Wise will be admitted 10 the convention, As
his seat and the seats OF all bis men from
Richmond are contested.
There is no doubt at all that Mr.. Wise is
regularly elected member; but Malone NAV
not think so, and if he docs not why there :
an Cnd Of II.
At Atprcsent Mr.. Wise and Mr. Edgar Al
Ian, who is one OF the delegates chosen by
the wise men Of Richmond, are busily en-.
gagged in the trial Of the suit OF llubard
against Brown, and it Is next to impossible
for the case to 20 on II they absent them
selves; but as they are opposing leaders In
the cause II may be that they will agree to
ask the Judge to adjourn the jury for day
or two. Unless this lntermlssiOn il secured
it is not easy to see how they can appear at
the convention.

A Baltimore special says: The an
nonncement was made in the newspapers
q short time ago that Miss Edith Johns,
daughter of Henry V. d. Johns, apromi-
pent lawyer Of this city, and Jesse ~
son. wealthy merchant. were to DE
married to-day. Social circles had been on
the tiptoe of expectation. No cards, how
ever were issued, and the friends OF the
compile we're disappointed. Many persons
went 10 Emmanuel Protestant Episcopal
church at l0oclock this morningand wait
ed until noon, but there was no wedding;
The prominence OF the couple IN social
circles. and the fact that she is but nine
teen and he past sixty, added to the In
terest in the affair. There were rumors
last night and to-day that the engage
ment had been declared off, but friends
OF the couple say that the date named IN
the newspaper announcement OF the nnp-
tials was wrong, and that the wedding
will not take place until the latter part OF
this month. The lady is now in New
York visiting friends. Mr.. Tyson laughed
at the report of the engagement beng
broken and declared that the cards would
be issued in few days.

A Look Into the Future.
North American Review.l


The civilization of the future will,
however, respectfully decline Mr.. Rus
kin's plan for regaining Arcadia by the
substitution OF moonshine and manual
labor for gaslight and steam en-
cines. Labor-saying machinery has
come to stay, and if steam shall not
monopolize the rough work of the
next century it is only because it will
share its functions with its win-giant OF
electricity. We shall have steam-quar-
ries and steam-digging machines, and
the speed of travel is destined to surpass
the achievements Of the present age by
inst as much as a modern express-train
surpasses a medieval mail coach.
The coming American autocrat of the
breakfast-table will growl at the delay of
the morning mail per night boat from
Europe. Excursion trains leaving
Boston after breakfast will avoid
the night-fogs of the Cordilleras
by reaching the City of Mexico in
time for supper. The competition OF
rail and ocean routes with balloon bee
lines will make travel cheap enough to
famiIiarize our tourists with every zone
of their continent and climatic epicures
will probably contrive to enjoy per-
petual summer by converting their July
pic MICS in the Yeilowstone-Park, and
their New-Year's symposium in Nalpa-
raise.
