ONE of the most string incidents
which we witnessed in the election
lust past, was the presence of an old
Democratic veteran, ga years old,
at the polls to cast. as he believed
and said, his last vote on earth. He
came a distance of five miles, as he
had done for many years in the past,
to cast his vote, and he came filled
with cheer and thankfulness that he
had again an opportunity of showing
his appreciation of that grand old
party to which he had given his most
faithful allegiance. He was anxious
for Cleveland's reelection because
he believed the peace of the sections
and the good of the whole country
demanded it. Would the old patriot
could have seen the fulhllment Of his
desire for, if so, perhaps, he would
either have had his life prolonged or
be now prepared, like Simeon, to say
"Lettest thy servant depart in peace,

IN referring to the dismissal of the
British Minister, Mr.. Cleveland, in
his message, says:
"Near the close of the month OF
October last, occurrences of deeply
regretable nature were brought to my
knowledge which made it my painful
but imperative duty to obtain, with
as little delay as possible. a new
personal channel Of diplomatic inter
course in this country with the Gov
eminent of Great Britain. The cor
respondence in relation to this Incl
dent will in due course be laid before
you, and will disclose the unpardon-
able conduct of the official referred
to in his interference by advice and
counsel with the suffrages of Amerl-
can citizens in the very crisis of the
Presidential election, then very near
at hand, and also in his subsequent
pubic declarations to justify his
action, super-adding impugnment OF
the Executive and Senate Of the
United States in connection with
important questions now pending
in controversy between the two Gov
ernments. The offense thus commit
ted was most grave, involving disas'
trous possibilities to the good rela-
tions Of the United States and Great
Britain, constituting gross breach
of diplomatic privilege and an inva
sion of the purely domestic affairs
and essential sovereignty of the
Government to which the envoy was
accredited. Having first fulfilled the
lust demands of international comfy
by affording full opportunity for Her
Majesty's government to act in relief
of the situation. l considered pro
longation of discussion to be un
warranted and thereupon declined to
further recognize the diplomatic char
acter of the persons whose contin
uance in such functions would destroy
that mutual confidence which Is es'
sential to the good understanding OF
the two governments and was incon
sistent with the welfare and self
respect of the Government OF the
United States. The usual inter
change of communication has since
continued through Her Majesty
legation in this city"

which render popular and aid in the

Mr.. Thos. S. Warren, a well-known
citizen Of Norfolk, who has been in
the employ of the Norfolk & Western
road, committed suicide in the lobby
of the St. James Hotel yesterday
morning by shooting himself through
the left breast The ball, which was
fred from hirty-eight calibre revol-

lodged in the woodwork behind him.
He died half an hour after committing
the deed unconscious and without
having spoken word. Drs. by
Smith and E. V. Newton were with
him when he died, but could do moth
ing for him. The revolver. which the
deceased used was borrowed from a
friend. After death coroner's in
quest was held by DIR. Newton.
Mr.. Warren was a native Of Eden

of the most eminent physicians in

The New York Times urges that
no State should be admitted into the
Union until it has sufficient popula-
ton to entitle it to. three members
of Congress, for every State is equal
in the Senate, and in the House too
when the House elects the President.
Nevada has two Senators, and her
population, we believe. has decreased
since her admission into the Union,
SO that although State for 25 years
she has hardly larger population
than Wake cnunty. Yet she has two
Senators and member Of Congress.
