There will be feeling Of general regret
in Virginia at the sudden death of State
Senator David f, Houston, of Roanoke
which took place in Lancaster, Pa, last
Saturday afternoon. He fell on an icy
pavement and rupturinga blood vessel, died
in a few moments. He was originally from
Philadelphia, where he had once run against
Samuel j. Randall for congress, but had
been for several years resident of Roanoke
He was prominent in the Republican party
of the State, and was the Chairman of the
State Central Committee of the Wise wing
Of that party. He was prominent man il
his section Of the State, and was at the head
of the Grocer Steel Furnace, a large corpo
ration in Roanoke. When elected to the
Senate his seat was contested by w. NJ
Ellis of Montgomery, but after an exciting
contest the Democratic Senate confirmed
Nh. Houston in his seat. At Roanoke the
intelligence of his death was received Will
profound regret by the citizens, and the
Board of Trade appointed a delegation tt
attend his funeral in Pennsylvania.

ton of "Belle Boyd, the eX-Confederate spy,
who recently lectured in Staunton, brings the

in 1864; appeared as an actress in England in
1866 married John S. Hammond in New
Orleans in 1869, and in 1885 married Nat. r.

LANDS ADMINISTRATION.
In very few days the administration of
President Cleveland will have closed. The
people Of the United States have already
they voted by over 10000 majority to con-
tinue it for another four years. Treachery
in the State of New Y ork, reinforced by
the fact that a President is chosen by an
Electoral College and not by the direct pop
ular vote, defeated him. So much for
the popularity of the Administration. OF
the man, as the responsible head of great
Nation there remains something to be
said. AS q Statesman, as an Executive,
and as a Democrat, he has not been sur
passed by any President this country has
had since its formation, and his four years
of power have been spent in blazing a new
path to a higher plane of administration for
all Presidents who shall follow him. That
clans Of his own party, and abused in the
usual mechanical and perfunctory way by
the politicians of the other party, was to
have been expected; no man who conscien-
tiously took and courageously held the
position that he did, could have expected
different treatment. Coming into office just
as the night of war feeling was fading, he,
with unexampled holiness, led the people
into the full sunlight Of non-sectiOnal,
Union day. He was the first President in
a quarter Of century who had the
courage to wipe out the black line which
political animosity had drawn around the
Southern States engaged III the civil war.
He boldly struck it out and administered
the government to all sections alike. His
name will live in history for this one act
had he never done another. But in every
other respect he has given the country a
clean, honest, able administration, both in
it's internal and it's foreign affairs. He was
the first President the Democratic party
had given the country since the civil war,
and it is a gift of which the party and
the country may well be proud. He will
leave Washington for private life followed
by the praises of the people, the sound Of
which shall drown the croakings of the
spoils hunters of his own party and the
malignant abuse of his opponents. Happy
will be this Union if his successor shall
have the conscience and courage to follow in
the same path.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Gov. Sawyer Of New Hampshire has ten
dered the appointment OF U. S. Senator
for that State, from March 4th to June
next, when tie legis ii ure elects), to Gen.
Gilman Marston. The somewhat notorious
bill" Chandler is the Senator for New
Hampshire whose term expires March 4th
The Richmond political friends Of John
S. Wise held meeting last week and passed
resolutions endorsing him as good Repub
lican. This was in response to previous
meeting of Malone Republicans who had
passed resolutions impeaching his Republic
caniSm.
Norman J. Coleman Of Missouri, took the
oath as member of the Cabinet, the Score
tary of Agriculture, under the new law
last Friday. He will have little over two
weeks to serve. The Senate promptly con
firmed him.
Col. Julian Allen, one of the Committee
of Thirteen appointed by the Cotton States
to arrange for an Exhibition of their prod
ucts and resources in some Northern city
has made a tour of all the great cities
He also went to see MI. Blaine, the pros
pective Secretary of State. Col. Allen re.
ports to the Baltimore Sun that Nh. Blaine
said to him:
81 will aid the project all can. When Mr.
Harrison's administration begins, it will be
high time that new methods be adopted. No
sectional feeling should exist, but all sections
should live as one family. People should be
appointed to office in the South, not for par
hi r.
their neighbors. Conservatism should be the
rule to win the friendship of the Southern
negro. The South will be left to deal with the
negro question to its own best interest and
protection. Let Sambo wait until his beard
grows
Gen. Malone was in Washington again
last week and had conferences with many
prominent Republican congressman. There
seems to. be a growing confidence among
his friends that while he will not be given a
place in the cabinet, the Federal patronage
in Virginia will be turned over to him as
completely as it was by the late President
Arthur
The Indianapolis News, whose editor is a
near personal friend of Gen. Harrison, says
there are excellent grounds for stating that
the eight Executive officers have been deci-
ded upon, and that unless it is deemed adj
visable to change the list between now and
March 4, the nominations of the following
named will be sent to the Senate: For Sec
rotary of State-James G. Blaine of Maine;
Treasury-Wil lillian Window, of Mimeso-
ta.; War-Jeremiah Rusk, of Wisconsin:
Navy-John R. Thomas, of Illinois; Inte-
rior-J. w. Noble, of Missouri; Attorney
General-W. III. III. Miller, of Indiana;
Postmaster General-John Wanamaker, of
Pennsylvania; Secretary of Agriculture
Warner Miller, Of New York.
Gen. Harrison will leave indianapolis at
noon Oh Monday next for Washington and
arrive there at $50 P. NJ. the next day.
His entire family will accompany him.

AS humiliating spectacle as has ever been
witnessed in the history of any of the thirty
eight States of this Union, is that of Governor
Lee begging aims at the hands of the tax-pay-
ers of this Commonwealth. 1t is a strange
sight to witness the Executive of a great State,
making personal solicitations to taxpayers to
pay their taxes in money, instead of in cou-
State Republican.
That is the comment of our esteemed Re-
publican contemporary on the patriotic mis-
sion of Gov. Lee and Mayor Ellyson of
Richmond, begging the merchants Of the
State to aid the old mother Commonwealth
of Virginia by paying their license tax in
money, rather than to aid the English bond
holders by paying them in couponsl The
VINDICAToR struck the bull s eye when it
foretold that the Republican party Of Vir-
ginia would make it's next fight side by side
with the English bondholders, with inscrib-
on it's banner, increased taxation for a
satisfactory settlement with it's allies.
Thrice have the people of Virginia refused
to pay the creditors more the Riddleberger
bill allows thrice have the creditors refus-
ed to take that. Our contemporary will find
that the proposition to increase taxation On
the people of Virginia to meet the demands
of the creditors-t latest demand made
in reply to President Smith Of Randolph
Macon College, is for even more than they
offered to take at the Sir Edward Thornton
conference, and will require a decided in
crease of taXes-will find no favor with the
people Of Virginia. The proposition to pay
"a big English syndicate who have bought
up, at little Oh nothing. the State bonds, a
big profit on their venture, is one that wont
have leg to stand on before an audience OF
Virginia taxpayers.

If Gen. Harrison. on his way to his in,
auguration, should pass through Ripley
Ohio, he will find state of affairs that will
puzzle him about the Negro Problem more
than ever. The famous 3.Arnett law, pass
ed by the Legislature of Ohio, obliterated all
distinction before the law between whites
and blacks. 1t therefore made colored
children ''eligible'' to the white public
schools, AS usual, the black men, who had
very good schools Of their own, proceeded
to send their children to some of the white
schools. Also, as usual, they were not adj
mitted, but i'll some cases roughly handled,
as We're their parents. As an outggowth of
it, the farmers, notably near Ripley, are re-
fusing to rent land to the colored people,
and thereby quietly driving them out of
the neighborhood,
