ment of court. and was the signal for
an immense rush to the courtroom,
where Mr.. Phlegar was to speak. Mr..
Phlegar is a gentleman of vast political
information and an attractive speaker.
During the course of his remarks he
called attention to the great increase OF
public schools and scholars during the
last five years Of Democratic admins
tration. He showed that during that
period there had been an increase OF
800 schools and Of $4,000 scholars.
Taking the private character and bust
ness capacity Of an individual az crlte-
rion by which TO measure his polltlcai
value as a statesman. he said that fhh
Mckinney is man most loved by those
who know him best, lawyer of great
reputation and Of undoubted integ-
rity and a successful man OF at
fairs. who had proven himself both
capable and worthy to control aud reg
ulate the affairs of the State; while on
the other hand William Malone, as
shown by the number of his former fol-
lowers who have now deserted him. Is
a man mis,rusted and repudlated by bis
friends, who has had no business since
the war save at one time. the manage
ment of the Norfolk and Western RAN
road. which corporation he utterly
ruined by his dishonest methods, and
who has proven himself utterly I'M
worthy. both in point of capacity and
morally. TO take Cargo Of anything save
the dirty machinery Of dlrtier canvass,
and a man in whose hands Virginia
would have no more hope Of improve
ment and thrift than a Mahonete has
of Heaven.
From time to time Mr.. Phelgar was
heartily cheered by his audience. who
were wrapi i'm attention during his en-
tire discourse, of about an hour.
Hon. Taylor Berry, our nominee Tor
the Senate. was then loudly called for.
and promptly responded. Mr. Berry
said that this canvass presented but one
issue. the people of the State we're
called upon to say whether they pro-
posed to be governed by the refined.
intellectual. and educated whites OF
Virginia. or whether they intended 10
allow themselves to be dOwn'trodden
BY party 90 per cent. Of whom are
negroes and the balance worse than
negroes. This was the whole burden
of his speech. and the people OF tins
county agree with him in his views.
Amherst is growing more solid every
day. aud may be counted on to do her
whole duty in November.

/ The Circuit Court has been IN session
for the past ten days. and will sit
during the remainder of the week.
At the Republican convention held
here last night. Captain Robert Crockett
was nominated for the Senate from this
district. and Major Wythe Gleaves for
the House.
Everything is very quiet in political
circles here, and very little auimosity
or bitterness has been stirred up as vet.
The indications are that we will have a
warm. but impersonal and mutually
respectful contest this fall.

IT is a terrible fact that State Legis-
lalure should consider bill to drive all
the negroes out Of the community on
the ground OF their bad character, and
that the vote on the bill should be tie.
We may discuss the thing as we may,

of the Commonwealth against George
l.. Andrews, who was indicted for
felony by the last grand jury for ruin
ina a young woman respectfully con-
uccted. who had been entrusted to his
care as teacher in his family. Andrews
did not put III his appearance but has
gone to parts unknown. and his bonds
men for his presence in court to-day to
the amount Of $500. will have to pay
up. Andrews is the Republican post
master at Occupacia, in this county.
His bondsmen are all Republicans, one
white and six colored.
Mr.. X. Il. Farr, of Fairfax. spoke
several hours in the courthouse to-day.
TO a few white and crowd Of negroes.
IL was very manifest that he failed TO
produce the usual enthusiasm of his

FEDERAL MANAGEMENT or CONGRESS
ELECTIONS The effort To place the
Congressional elections under the ex-
elusive control of Federal authori-
ties is meeting with the opposi-
ton of thoughtful and patriotic
men within the Republican ranks as
well as in the Democratic party. The
Federal election law. as introduced by
Senator Sherman at the last session of
Congress, undertakes to provide for the
appointment Of election officer. incluS-
ing polling place judges, by officials
designated by the President to serve in
each State.
The attempt to delegate presidential
authority over places of executive and
semi judicial importance would be
clear violation OF the constitutional
provision that lodges the appointing
power IN the President, the heads OF
departments and the courts.
Under our system Congress is an as
senblage OF Senators and Representa- |
tIyes, commissioned BY the people in /
the several States. Ii is impossible to
ignore State lines or State authority
without violating the essence of our
Federal system.-Neu YorkSfdr.
