work decorating the shelving and
counters with that artistic skill and
taste for which he is famous.
While Mr.. Kimber has shown great

outdone when it comes to decora-
tive art, and, between the two, Mr..
McNeely is going to have the most
handsomely finished establishment
in all the country round. The
ceiling, windows and facings are
painted in hard oil finish, relieved
by delicate tints. The shelves and
mouldings are finished in cherry,
with counter tops in walnut. All
together producing a most pleasing
and harmonizing effect.
Mr.. McNeely has large lot of

to be opened on the I'd, and will be
sold at figures as low as can be sold

like himself are always accommo-
dating and agreeable, and will con-
tinue to strive to keep the good
will and patronage of the friends
he has made by correct and fair
dealing.

There has been good deal Of quiet
work done all over the State by the
friends of the gubernatorial candidates
and it will be felt within two hours
after the delegates begin to assemble IN
Richmond.
The Virginians are noted for Datu-
raj and we'll trained talent for politics,
and in such an important canvass doubt
less the work WILDE wei doue. let it
all be as fair as it has been thus far, for
il would never do for the Democratic
Convention, with the duty that IL
owes to the party, TO give
itself to sny thing like
question Of personal preference as
above the cause of harmony that is the
prerequisite of success. When the
nominee is chosen let every one. and
especially the defeated aspirants, ac-
cept tho result frankly and IN good
part. The politician of any experIsrce
knows better than any one else that
there are accidents sometimes that may
beat the wOrthiCst candidates. The
winds Of politics do not blow with the
regularity Of the trade winds, and the
richest "Argosies' of hope and am
biticn may be- cast away 10y unexpected
breezes. An the history of the state
since the war carries this lesson: That
apart from and above the accepted
party ethics we must stand together
and follow the lead that the convention
gives.
Let thi. be impressed on the conven-
ton, and then, being true 10 ourselves.
il follows, as the night the day. we
cannot then be false to any man, or
words to that effect.
There has for generations been an
idea that nominations should be alter
mated by sections, and that the Tide
water. the Valley, the Southwest. and
the Southside should each come up in
turn.
That may have been well III the days
Of stage coaches, but tho State should
at the present day feel itself too closely
united In politics. as well as IN trade. |
TO act in convention except on the |
broad grounds tina. recognize a citizen /
Of one section as the citizen of any /
other section, if bis ideas are common
surate 10 the time and the occasion.

4 New York psper has the following
significant paragraph
The county Democrats don't pro
pose to die simply because 1ammauy
has prepared their epilspb They are
sick, awfully sick, but il they caa make
a little arrangement with the Repub-
licans at the next election they will
conyalesce very rapidly
That is just the point. The National
Democratic party is poised on a pivot
located at New York, and the adjust
ment Of the pivot is not on correct
political principles. but on an ''eccen-
trio, y 30 to speak, which may be con-
