Burkevi1Ie.

BURKEyILLR, Oct. 14.-lSpecial. l-Satur-
day was a field-day for the Democrats Of
Nottoway. A large crowd had gathered TO
hear addresses from Mr.. James +. Epes and
other well-kn0wn leaders Of the Democratic
party. Mr.. Epes was heartily received as
the duly accredited representative Of a
great party. The frequent applause with
which Sir. Epes' speech was receir ed show
ed that he had the sympathy and approval
of his hearers.
Judge Mann spoke next. His speech was
strong, clear presentation of the main
issues of the canvass. lie exposed the in
EQUITIES of the recent pension and tarifl
legislation, and the Lodge bill. Eut i will
not attempt TO give even synopsis OF this
most excellent speech. Ii is enough TO say
that ii was listened to with closest atten-
ton, and, enliyened as it was with we'll
told and pointed anecdote, with unfiagging
interest.
At the close of Judge Mann's speech DIR.
Booth was loudly called for. DIR. Booth
was formerly a resident Of our county, and
at one time chairman Of our committee. He
was present on this occasion by accident,
having stopped in Crewe on his return
home from the Southwest. He responded
TO the call in a ringing, spirited speech,
which was received with round after round
Of appluse.
The speech throughout was interspersed
with amusing anecdote and illusion, and
kept the crowd in splendid humor. AT its
conclusion the Doctor was the recipient OF
many warm congratulations.
The exercises of the evening were closed
with few remarks by the writer Of this
article.
If anything is to be inferred from enthu-
sastic demonstration, we may put Crewe
down as solid for Mr.. Epes.

than Lodge. They represent the change
which has already taken place In the politi-
cal attitude Of the younger set Of Massa-
csusetts voters, and 1t Ia change which lie
destined 10 be carried further and further
every year.
A very large majority Of the educated
young men Of the State, the men who are
beginning to control public opinion In their
native Commonwealth, are opposed TO the
political course OF Lodge, and especially TO
the views which for the sake Of expediency
he cntertains on the subject OF the tariff.
Harvard College is using the enormous In
tellectual influence which 1t possesses TO
advance the cause OF tariff reform. Its
president, Mr.. Eliot, has boldly proclaimed
that he will hereafter vote on the side OF
the Democracy. One OF it's principal in
structors, Mr.. Everett, is candidate for
Congress In opposition TO Mr.. Lodge, and
with very few exceptions, its professors are
in sympathy with these gentlemen in the
political opinions which they have ex-
pressed and the political course which they
will follow from this time on.

Nothing shows more clearly the profound
distrust in which the Republican party is
held by those who have had the best oppor
tunities of observing its disposition to COM
nit every form of fraud when its interests
appear to demand it than the open charge
which is now brought against the superin-
tepdent of the national census that be is
manipulating the enumeration in such IA
manner as to give the Republicans perma-
nent control of the House. The basis OF
representation, it il confidently asserted, is
being tempered with for the benefit of the
Republican party, which is prepared 10
have recourse even to this desperate means
of retaining its hold upon national power.
IL this is the case, and there does not seem
TO be any strong reason to doubt 1t, then a
great crime is being perpetrated against
the liberties Of the American people. The
citizens Of every section OF the Union are
vitality concerned in fair and accurate
enumeration Of the population irrespective
of the interests of any party. If that emu
meration is TO be cooked" to use the ex-
pressive phrase of the men who are engaged
in the work-that is, if the number of the
inhabitants in Democratic States is TO be
cut down and the number in the Republi-
can increased without the slightest ground
classification beyond desire to promote
the interests of the Republicans-then free
government on the American continent has
reached the brink of precipice.
The history Of the Republican party dur
ing the last few months has been marked
by events that have been calculated to
shake our institutions to their lowest founda-
tons. The passage in the House OF the
Force bill, bill which will yet become
law If the Republican party can carry out
its wishes, the enactment Of the Mckinley
tariff measure, and the adoption of rules
that placed the minority completely at the
mercy of the majority, all these were steps
that have exercised most damaging in
fluence on the character of our national
affairs; but revolutionary as they were, they
cannot compare in Nervousness with the
deliberate determination OF the census au-
thorities TO alter the returns that have been
made 10 them by the enumerators ia the
different States.
This is fraud of such colossal nature
that the mind Of every man who has any
regard for justice and fairness, whatever
may be his party allegiance, shrnks from
1t inyoluntarily. The most ordinary pat
riotism recoils from such terrible crime
against the integrity Of our Government
and the perpetuity of our free institutions,
and if it can be brought distinctly home to
its authors, no punishment that can be in
flcted on them would be too severe, how
ever extreme.

WILLIAM n. SPENCER.
The "worId" Inaccurate as Usual In De
falling His Career.


falling His Career.
In the New York World of Sunday are
several columns devoted TO biography of
the late William ii. Spencer, of New York,
the s0n-in-law of ex-President Tyler, who
recently died suddenly at hotel in Chicago.
In this sketch of Mr.. Spencer number OF
fragrant errors occur, which will readily be
detected by the many friends, relatives, and
connections of MIR. Tyler yet surviving IN
Virginia. Among other things it says:
"President Tyler, as will be remembered,
was the only President up to Mr. CieVelands
time who had been married while Chiei
Magistrate of the nation. When elected
Vice President on the ticket with President
Harrison's grandfather he was = widower.
After entering the White House he met and
fell i'm love with Julia Gardiner, one OF the
GARDENERS of Gardeners Island, and he came
10 New York and was married TO her in the
Church Of the Ascension, corner of Tenth
street and Filth avenue, the affair being the
greatest social sensation of the day. julia
Gardiner Tyler, their first child, was born
In the White House nearly year later, and
it is singular fact that when she was mar
ried 10 the man who died in Chicago last
week the official ceremony took place in the
same church in this city in which her
mother was married to President Tyler"
Ii is strange that metropolitan paper
like the World should have been guilty in
such short space as the above, OF such pal
pabe misstatement of facts, which any
school history could have corrected. When
ex-Presdent Tyler was elected Nice-Presi-
dent on the ticket with General Harrison he
was no widower. nor did he become one I'M
til some time after he entered the White
House. His first wife. nee Letitia Christian.
did not die until more than year after he had
succeeded President Harrison as Chief Ex-
ecutive OF the Republic. About two years
after the death of Mrs. Tyler, and only
about six months before the close OF his adj
minstratiOn, he was married TO Miss Gar
diner, and on leaving Washington he made
his residence at Sherwood Forest, in Charles
City county, Va, on James river, where his
Oldest child by his second marriage-Mr.
Gardiner Tyler-still resides.
So far from Miss Julia Tyler, afterwards
Mrs. Spencer, having been born in the
White House, she was not born until sew
eral years after her fathers Presidency.
While residing at Sherwood Forest, all of
his children by his marriage with Miss
Gardiner were born TO him, and of these
Messrs. David Gardiner and j. Alexander
TYLER were both older than Mrs. Spencer,
and as Mr.. Tyler never made any stay IN
the White House after his official resi-
dence there terminated, il may readily
be seen that the birth of Mrs. Spencer in
that historic mansion was impossible. -
The biography of Mr.. Spencer, as con-
tanned In the World, is full Of other errors,
but these are The most fragrant and unpar-
donable.

uUTY TO VOTE.

Rev. DIR. Landrum, OF this city, spoke
iustIy and TO the point when he said In the
sermon reported in THE TINES Of Tuesday,
that il was "a Christian duty TO vote"
and that il was incumbent upon every man,
as one OF the most solemn and enduring
obligations of his life, TO exercise the right
of suffrage.
This is not open TO dispute, but the duty
imposed by the suffrage sits very light
ly upon many mer who are fully
aware of its importance and would
be among the first 10 acknowledge
its binding force. The trouble in our
Southern communities is not so much that
men depreciate or scorn the privilege oil
voting, but that they are Indifferent to It's
exercise unless something arises TO urge
them 10 its use. Certainly there Is
no State in the Union in which
the right of suffrage is more valued than I'D
Virginia, and none in which its true char
acter is more clearly understood in all oil
its different bearings. This is due, in the
first place, 10 the enlightened political spirit
which has always distinguished our Viz
rinia people, and the warm interest which
they have felt in political matters from the
foundation of the Commonwealth. And in
the second, it is to be attributed TO the I'M
portance OF the race questions which have
entered for so many years into oil OF our
principal elections.
Unless, however, the elections involve
very serious issues, there is a disposition
here as elsewhere 10 shirk the inconyeni-
ence of casting ballot, and If 1t is CHRIS
tan duty 10 vote, as it is undoubtedly, this
course of action is just as open to censure
as if the fate Of the Commonwealth and
the fortunes of it's inhabitants turned upon
the election.
1t is the duty of every man to vote at
every election that takes place, however
unimportant apparently in its character
The principle is the same whether 1t is local
or national in its scope, and in either case
it is Just as obligatory. 1t is just as much
the duty of a man to cast his vote when
there is no opposition 10 the candidate Tor
office before the people, whom he prefers, as
If that candidate was antagonized by
several candidates standing upon platforms
that embody everything that Is destructive
Of the welfare of the community. Some OF
our Democratic voters, who are rarely
remiss in performing their political duties,
will probably argue on November 4th that
as Mr.. Wise is unopposed it will not be in
cumbent upon them 10 go to the polls. 1t
is in just such instances as this that the OBJ
legation of voting is peculiarly strong.
There is as distinct principle involved in
the act as if our candidates prospect OF
success was clouded instead Of being fully
assured.
And, in a somewhat modified form, the
same principle is applicable in the instance
of every election that comes OIL. The obi
CATION of citizenship is to vote, and it is
Christian duty from which it is Impossible
to escape without larger or smaller dc
gree of guilt.

DEMOCRACY IN MASSACHUSETTS.

IL Is fact quite worthy of notice that
there is strong disposition among many OF
the representatives of the most influential
families Of Massachusetts 10 unite them
selves TO the Democratic party as rejecting

gressive spirit than the Republican party.
The Democratic nominee for the Governor

and all the associations OF his family have
been with the members Of that class which
gave Sumner the most earnest support, and
which regarded the Republican party as
organized for the accomplishment OF mis-
sion little short Of divine.
One OF the Leading Congressman from the
Bay State Is son Of John A. Andrew, the
celebrated CHIEF executive Of that Common
wealth during the progress OF the war, and
who won his great reputation by the ardor
Of his Republican opinions and the zeal and
energy with which he pressed the cause Of
the Onion. His son, who WAS educated un-
der the influence Of such family traditions,
is now Democratic representative from
the city OF Boston and has taken an honor
able position in the House.
With the single exception OF Lodge. An
drew and Russell are the two most con-
spicuous young men in Massachusetts,.
Both are ofuncompromising Abolition stock,
and yet both are Democrats on principle.
1t Is well known that Lodge at one time
was on the point Of following In the foot
steps Of these two rivals, but at the last mo-
ment he allowed what he conceived &c be
his political interests TO lead him deeper
lnto the ranks OF the Republican party, and
