The election is now near at hand,
ard while their may seem to be no
cause for alarm, it may be important
/ us to be at the polls on the Sd of
T5ovember. Democratic victory on
tie Eastern Shore on that day, it is
true. seems to be a foregone conclu-
son, but it does not follow that the
democratic skies, SO bright and
serene at present, cannot be overcast
it'll clouds and that the bright hope
O. success today cannot be dispelled
by surprises from foe which can
only hope to win by these methods.
ur candidates naturally hope for
success with no one opposing them
they would have no fears i'll q contest
with ''foenlen worthy of their steel"
but with an enemy lurking in the
ambush ready to fall upon them,
when not panoplied for the fight,
they, nor we, can say what the
.eult might be. TO guard against
surprises which might lead to the
defeat of our nominees by going to
the polls and casting your vote for
them is the duty of every Democratic
voter of the Eastern Shore. See to
it. Democratic voters, that you per-
form that duty on the Sd day Of
November.

represented in the conference, and
tabulated, first geographically, and
second enthusiastically. The term
s'adherentsn included in every case
ministers and members. as we'll as
the families connected with congre-
cations. In some cases estimates
were made, but in no ease do they
exceed the figures given in the gov
eminent census, and in some eases
they are below. Willie no official
statistics were adopted by the Lon
don Ecumenical Conference, figures
show that since that conference there
has been an increase OF so per cent.
in Methodist believers.
Some Of the details Of the report
were read by Rev. DIR. Morley, af fol-

would, if adopted, vitiate the returns
in England.
DR.. Stephenson suggested that a
foot note be attached to each item
of the report stating the basis of 'cs-

Virginia mourns the loss of another
one of her distinguished sons. Gen.
Wm. H. F. Lee, died at his home in
Fairfax county, on the 18th inst. He
was Il true, pure and incorruptible
man and in all the relations of life
performed well the duties which fell
to him. AS soldier, he won for him
self imperishable rcnown among the
ch;eftains OF the Confederacy, as Il
statesman he took nigh rank as an
industrious and efficient representa-
tive of the people, as citizen in the
private walks of life he met we'll all
its requirements. 1t is no fulsome
raise,to say of him, that he possess
ed many of the great qualities OF his
iIlustrious father.

The notice for the meeting of En-
Confcderates at Parksley. OH e1st
inst, was published in the Enter
PRISE, on the authority of the Presi-
dent of the Camp. and not being no
tilted of the change in time from 21st
10 2Sth inst, it strikes us that the
want of courtesy" of which the
headlight complains, was not accord
cd TO us by the secretary or some one
else. The valuable information i'm
parted through the columns of our
esteemed contemporary may some
Umcs escape us, as it seems to have
(lcne in this instance, but we decline
20 assume the responsibility, as the
Headlight wishes US to do, for the
disappointment to the Ex-Confeder-
ates which were at Parksley, last
Wednesday, due to his failure to
communicate with us by letter as it
'.as his duty, as secretary of the
Camp.
