Gen. Wickham was man who moved
to the county for the purpose of con-
testing the district His past was, ac-
cording to all reasons, as well calculat-

Gen. Wicl1ham's was to enlist their

These facts were esta blished by record

the exception of certain of Gen. Wick

voted for Gen. Wickham were hardly
worth taking into account. The negro,

Electrical EY Catcher.

The electrical fly catcher, which has
been tried and found successful by sew
eral large shopkeepers, consists Of a
small induction coil giving about an
inch spark and is furnished with a Sc
ries of fine wires strung on board and
looking not unlike either. Each alter
nate wire is connected with an Undue
ton coil and sliding regulator is so
adjusted that the spark will not strike
across between the wires until the I'M
lucky fly alights. Then the battery
puts in its work and the fly dives down
between the wires and leaves the field
clear for the next victim.

sfor ole Mr.. Grant" I only remem-
bered that somehow felt that Ii was a
hostile act and was angry with the two
men who were behind the box, though
not as / recollect with the negroes
themselves, a number of whom had be-
aonCed TO u.s.
The first representative from nv
county that remember was BurweII
Toler, an old negro, who was elected to
the state convention over Mr. William
4. Wickhau, the wealthiest man in the
county. and the father of Gen. Wick
ham. The Wicllhams had been whi-rs
md union men before the war, as had
my own people, voting against secession
until the state went out, when all of
proper age had promptly entered the
army. where they stayed until APP
ponattox. And after the war they ac-
copied the situation ana deemed it best
for the south to unite with the re-
publicans and try to guide their policy
In the south. They TINS voted with
the republicans at first: though eventu-
ally, in face OF reconstruction, they fell
Into line with the great body of the
southern people Thus it was that on
the occasion of the first election it was
hoped that Mr.. Wlcl1ham might be
elected. and for the first time in his life
he consented to run for office He was
defeated. however. and never again
offered. conterting himself with voting
and having his vote neutralized by
that of his old driver Oliver, Burweu
Toler's brother.
This is related because it leads up to
the fact that Gen. Wickham, who had
been through all the period of recon
struction the best friend that the negro
had in Virginia. and who incurred by
his unninching course that hostility
which only those can appreciate who
know how strongly the southerner can
feel in political matters, subsequently
ran for the state senate as debt-pav-
ing republican, and because the bulk
Of the whites in the district. democrats
rs well as republicans, advocated him,
was opposed by the negroes with an ex-
traordinary unaniinity. This contest
Illustrates sptly the tendency of the
negro TO align himself against the

the hidden article, the party hiding it
and the one from whom aud the

powers are truly wonderful and his

ent to marvel greatly. Everything
was fairly done, no collision being
attempted with any one and nothing
appeared TO dispute the genuineuess
of his claim OF being able TO read the

in it's interests, especially in training
the children TO sing and in choir work.
The church is doing good service.
The Sunday school, under the leader
ship of Mrs. E. Woodruff, assisted by
faithful co-adiutors, is working with
u will and doing admirably. The
