ANoTHEp FOR McENEEy.-1t now
looks as if tue friends of ex-Gav S. y.
MuEncry would push his claims for
the office of governor, as against
Adams, the Farmers Alliance Anti.
Lottery candidate or any one else
That they are entitled to their belief
that he is the most suitable in every
respect for the office, no one will deny.
He has been tried and not foaud
wanting.
In this respect we publish below
the latter portion of a most compli-
mentary article of the Ex-Governor,
and which we reproduce with pleasures:
The people are clamoring for him once
more, because these are troublous times
and they know that, under his spotless
banner, every Democrat Will rally and
the party will be solid aud united. They
know that heresies will be abandoned,
and that extremists will be taught to dis
cuss the questions of the day without in
citing revolution, and will be compelled
to accept the peoples verdict as fiual.
The return of Samuel d. McEnery into
public political life will be hailed with
Joy and accepted as blessing throughout
the entire state.

The Natchez, Red River and
Texas Railroad.

Speaking of the above enterprise,
and of its many advantages to he de-
rived by towns aleslg that route, the
Natchez Democrat in recent issue
has the following:
70 Alexandria, too, the extension of
this line would he of incstimable benefit
aud value. Ii would furnish most i'm
portant link in a direct East aud West
line from New York aml he Atlantic sea-
board to Texas, Mexico and the Pacific
on tue West. Il would hasten the con-
structon OF the Texas lines now pointing
to that enicrprsing city, and would help
to add materially to TIE allcady great
degree Of prosperity with which the place
is blessed. While our Alexandria friends
claim that they are scarcely able now to
extend any great financial aid to this en-
terpriSe at this time, it may he that upon
Investigation they will find that there
have been subsidies granted to certain
enterprises recently that have not been
earned and have therefore, lap,ed. Could
not some of these subsidies be applied to
the ~, r. X. x TT 1t IS an enterprise
of us much Importance to Alexandria as
some of the others. and if tAe city was
able to offer them then with the great
posperity she is now enjoying it strikes
us that she would be better able to give
hem now. This matter is one of the
utmost Importance to our little ncighbor,
and we hope her energetic and enterpri-
sing citizens will give its consideration
the weight it deserves.

Winchester Presbytery at its ses-
sion at Moorefield. advised the General
AssembIy's Committee of Foreign
Missions to use great caution in send
ing out missionaries to China, until
the present disturbance in that coun-
try is settled. On a recent occasion
at Tsing-Kiang-Pu, the home of Mr..
James R. Graham, missionary from
this Presbytery, was attacked by a
mob several times in one day. Mr..
Graham was struck on the head with
a stone, and the lives and property of
missionaries were in great danger
Mrs. Graham came to the window,
holding in her arms her baby, whose
smiles and laughter caught the atten-
ton of the crowd and amused them,
until government help arrived, and
the mob was dispersed. The stated
meeting next spring will be held il
