presiding officer OF the House. Not since
the withdrawal of Aaron Burr from the
political stage has there appeared an
american politician 80 totally lacking in a
just perception OF the demands Of public
morality as the present Speaker. The
sinister and polished serenity Of the slayer
Of Alexander Hamilton is substituted In
this new conspiratOr against the essential
principles OF our National Government, by
a cynical mirth, a sncering blaudncss that
imparts a singular effect TO the impressions
formed Of his character
Who, after reading the Philadelphia ad-
dress of Reed, can doubt for mo-
ment that If this man had the power,
he would relegaie the southern states
to a condition far worse In the poin'
Of humiliation end degradation than mat III
which they languished at the point Of death
during the period that Immediately followed
reconstruction? Nay, more, it is hardly an
exaggeration to say that this Philadelphia
speech reveals such a hatred Of the South
ern white people that its author would not
stop al any extreme in the disposition Of
their fortunes n I'd their lives. This conclu-
sion seems irresistible when the address Is
taken in connection with the scene attend
ing the seating Of LaEgston, when smile
Of triumphant satisfaction is reported to
have wreathed the face Of the Speaker as
he directed his gaze at the gallery, crowded
TO suiocation with negroes, who were Gre
ating pandemonium by their yociferous
approval Of the proceedings of the Republic
can majority.
1t was n scene that should convey a les
son of lasting importance to the people OF
the Southern States, for it illustrated even
more clearly than the attitude Of the
Speaker in the debates on the Force bill
what steps he is disposed TO take in order
10 reduce the South TO a condition lower
than that Of a conquered province, because
it would be placed under the dominion of
the most DEGRADED elements in its various
communities.

AGRICULTURAL FAIRS.

In the course Of the next ten days there
are TO be held at various points in Virginia
a number of agricultural fairs that prom
Use to he very interesting and useful. This
number includes the Baldwin District AssO-
citation Fair at Stanton, the Farmyille
Fair, the Botctourt Agricultural and Me
chanical Association Fair at Fincastle, and
the Rappahannock Valley Agriculnral
and Mechanical Society Fair. These fairs,
it will be observed, will be celebrated in
sections Of the State that are widely sepa-
rated from each other, the Southwest, the
Valley. the Piedmont and the Southside.
The interest and energy which they will
reveal on the part Of The farmers of the
state in advancing the welfare OF their Oc-
cupaiion, is highly gratifying, when the
depression which has prevailed in agri-
culture is recalled. In spite Of every dis
cOuraging obstacle in the path Of success
the farmers of this Commonwealth have
kept up their courage and steadily made
the best Of the circumstances in which they
haze been placed. one Of the most favorable
results Of this spirit so far has been an ever
growing disposition on theirpart to cooper
ate for the general advancement Of their or
der. The decline in the profitable char
acter Of their calling has served to bring
them into closer relations. not only for pro-
lection, but also for the improvement of
their condition
The fairs 20 which we have referred and
others which are TO take place, show that
our Nirginian farmers are prepared TO util-
ize every means to place their calling upon
the most secure footing which is attainable
TO promote its general prosperity, and to
stimulate those who are engaged in it by
arousing in them a more hopeful and ener-
getic spirit. There is to be Fair this fall
in every one Of the great divisions Of the
State, and it is very much 10 be regretted
that there will not be a Fair in this city for
the state at large. This would be the proper
cOnsummalion Of the smaller fairs to take
place elsewhere.
Hereafter no year should be allowed to
pass without a state Fair on account Of the
very great benefit which it cOniers upon the
agricultural interests Of the whole Common
wealth. The absence of the State Fair will
seem unusually strange when such energy
has been put forth by the farmers in every
part Of Virginia to make thorough exhibit
of their products at their local fairs. A local
fair il "A Great ADVANTAGE TO thp section
which it represents; a state Fair advances
the agricultural interests Of every section.
Their respective usefulness does not con-
iiict. On the contrary. the State Fair looks
for support to the spirit which is fostered by
the local fair.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1890.
ELLIOTT AND NESABLE.

Flagranily as the unseating OF Mr.. Nena-
DE violated every dictate Of common JUS
tice, the proceedings attending the unseat-
ing Of Mr.. Elliott, Of South Carolina, were,
If possible, still more opposed to every in
stnct and impulse of right thinking men.
In this, as in the Nenable case, the contest
ant was negro, and the district represent
cd contained n much larger black than
white population. The evidence offered IN
support Of Mr.. Elliott's opponent was even
more fimsy than that advanced 10 sustain
the claim Of Langston, and yet immediate
Iy upon the heels Of the exclusion of Mr..
Nenable, without minute being allowed
for debate, or the brieiest consideration Of
the step about to be taken, the negro Miller
was declared TO be entitled to the seat occu-
pied by Mr.. Elliott.
II required only few moments 10 con-
summate as grave an outrage as was ever
penetrated in the halls Of Congress. Not
only was most upright and honorable
man, who had been elected 10 the Office
which he filed so creditably, summary
expelled from the position which he occu-
pied by title not open TO serious dispute,
but he was expelled without the smallest
opportunity being allowed his party assO-
ciates 20 expose the gross iniquity Of the
threatened step and the damage which it
was calculated TO DO to our system of Gov
eminent.
Such a scene was never before witnessed
in the history OF our government and may
IL never be witnessed again. The action OF
the Republican majority in connection with
both Mr.. Venabe and Mr.. Elliott is the
most uniustifable in It's total disregard of
both the letter and the spirit Of American
institutions that has ever been recorded ia
the history of the National Legislature.
Here were two men. who, 10y the decisive
voice Of the people, under the provisions Of
the law Of the land, had been advanced TO
seats in Congress. The Republican party
deliberately turned them both out, because
they represented districts in which the ne
groes had numerical majOriues, and be-
cause two negroes were seeking to displace
them. This is the whole matter in nut

who would not do well 10 pause and ask
himself if the Government Of the United
states has not sunk into an odious tyranny
when such acts as these can be committed
by party majority in Congress. Little r.
mains to be preserved if the Speaker Of the
House of Representatives and his party
associates in that body can coolly override
the wishes OF the people expressed at the
polls, can calmly ignore the fundamental
principles upon which our political institu-
tons are based, and maintain themselves
in power 10y a course Of conduct, which
under ordinary circumstances, would either
lead to their destruction or TO revolution.

REEDS PHILADELPHIAs SPEECH

The speech delivered by Mr.. Reed at the
mass-meeting Of the Republican clubs in
Philadelphia on Tuesday was eminently
characteristic Of the man. Highly elated
by the triumph Of the Republican party in
the Langston-Nenable contest, he inter.
spersed his address with many strokes OF
humor, which, in the connection in which
they were INDUCED, showed as gross a lack
Of principle, conscience as devoid Of integ-
rity as any serious expression which.has yet
emanated from him. Disposed as the
Speaker was to pleasantries, there was an
echo Of savage satisfaction in every remark
which he made. The enemy was disconccr-
ted, defeated, and beaten down, and over the
PROSTATE body the man who should be from
the character Of his Office the impartial and
dispassionate servant Of the people, raised
a loud laugh that seemed almost disbolical
10 lie cynical GOODNESS.
Every succeeding event in the history Of
the present Congress discloses with increas-
Ing ciearness the dangerous instincts Of the

COEDON or CTOKGIa.

The letter which Hon. 4. NJ. Norwood, q
candidate for the United States Senate
from Georgia, addressed a few days ago q
Governor Gordon, of the same state, in re-
ply to certain reflections which the Goy.
ernor, who is also a candidate for the United
states Senate, had passed upon him, is not
such as 20 advance the prospects Of Mr..
Norwood or TO injure the chances of General
Gordon. The latter has acted wisely in de-
vlining to frame an answer to its various
indirect charges, relying upon the judgment
OF his fellow-citzens of Georgia TO accept
these charges at their true value.
The sum and substance Of Mr.. NorwOod's
bill Ofindictment, and this is not the frs {
time that the same embittered assertions
have been INDUCED in by the enemies Of
Governor Gordon, is that Governor Gordon
has proven himself to he a very inefficient
manager of business enterprises, and that
by his visionary disposition in such matters
he has earned the title Of the Georgia Mul
berry Sellers, whose enlarged views Of COM
ing wealth from great variety OF scheme S
have so far turned out to be wholly decep-
schemes has lacked the necessary capacity
for pushing them to Il successful issue.
These statements as to Governor Gordon's
business ventures are no doubt highly col
ored by his opponents hostile feeling,
which leads him very naturally TO eXaggera-
ton. Whatever may be the history of the
part which the Governor has played rs a
private man OF business, there has never
\ been, simply because there was no ground
Nor II, any reflection upon his integrity as
AN individual. II he has failed in private
Rrises, he has failed because he had
not hadS}tle special experience required.
As p1S2lic man, whether we consider
the record wESeh he made as a member of
the United staten Senate, or examine in de-
tail his course sincx he has occupied the
chief magistracy Of thNS Empire state of the
South, it would be impoXesible 10 deny that
he has shown the highesi,s,hegree Of ell
cheney. Georgia has proba7Ns hever sent
10 Washington more innuesHc,l repre-
sentative In the senate, nor has n.y.. e ac-
tive and useful officer ever occupied Nsf X
ecutiye Mansion. Ny.
Governor Gordon has the firmest hol0%'
upon the affections Of the people Of his
state. lie reflected the highest credit upon
them by his brilliant career as soldier,
and he has proven himself to be most .
capable ard upright promoter of their in-
terests IN public life. Ii is hardly probable :
that he has now any reasonable ground 10 :,
anticipate defeat at the hands Of a constit-
uency which has conferred upon him all the
honors in its power to give, and which =,
justly considers him 10 be the most distin-
guished citizen in the Commonwealth.

KING lIUMBERr and Queen Margaret, Of
Italy, are well entitled to that devoted 10y
atty with which they are universally re-
garded in their dominions. When several
years ago the cholera was raging IN Naples
the King visited the wards Of the hospitals
in that city, and by his words and his eX-
ample, did much to encourage the patients
and TO strengthen the nurses and physi-
clans who were engaged III administering
to their wants. When the accident on the
Florence railway occurred on Tuesday,
killing five and severely injuring twenty
of the passengers, both Humbert and Mar
garet hurried to the scene and personally
superintended the steps that were being
taken to alleviate the suflerings Of those
who had been wounded and manned in the
catastrophe. 1t is such conduct as this
that gives the truest dignity to mOnarchs.
