POLITICAL
The political situation here and through
out this section Is rapidly warming up 10
fever-heat. Both parties are working at
their best. The Democrats particularly
have within the past few days greatly per-
fected their organization aud are working
with a vim that betokens full vote and de-

1t is pretty well understood that John NJ.
Langston, who Is speaking for the Repub-
can ticket in Ohio will not come back 10
Virginia to take any part IN this campaign.
and the negroes who are waiting TO hear his
advice are by no means enthusiastic for
Malone On the contrary. they show a
great lack Of enthusiasm as compared with
former campaigns.
Ex-Governor Cameron is more decided
than ever in his opinion that General Ma
hone will be beaten, and that by very de-
cisiye majority. He thinks the result OF
the recent registration throughout this
State proves this fact beyond all doubt.
In al the appeal cases from the registr lrs
IA this city heard yesterday and to-day by
Judge Bernard, Of the Hastings Court, de-
cisions were rendered sustaining the regis
trars, except in one. The Republicans are
fighting very hard. but appearances indi-
cate that they are fighting against fate in
Petersburg. They are not even disposed
TO take bets az odds.
Congressman Julius Caesar Burrows, OF
Michigan. spoke at the Academy Of Music
last night. He avoids State issues as much
ss possible and discusses national ques
tions altogether. He thinks this campaign
however, 10 be Of such national importance
as 10 justify the presence Of himself anc
other northern Radical maligners of the
South IL the State. ROBIN ApAiR.
