vu.,ao,r ON authority that we consider
most reliable that the Democratic committee
q tIo,r,co county have decided among them
.o,ros 70 hold precinct meetings next Mon
H. ,be ath day of April-only four days oil
TO elect three delegates from each precinct
| 10 county convention To be held at the
oourt. house on the eth OF April TO choose
! deleeates TO the State Convention. said dele
cates TO cast all the votes TO which their re-
spective precincts are entitled. This proceed
inc smachs very strongly OF Hillism.
No public notice of these meetings
has been given no court day has interviewed
since the committee decided on this course OF
action. and there Is great danger that the
Democratic voters of the county cannot pos
sibly get general notice of the meetings by
next Monday.
All this has decidedly lilly complexion.
We do not charge that Hill methods hae
deliberately been adopted, but certain men,
bers of the committee are known TO be
strong Hill men. and to be exceedingly ANXIOUS
that the county shall send delegates TO the
State Convention known TO be partial TO thelr
iavorite and it certainly looks as II TINS
stil-hunt idea Of quietly, and with sus-
picious avoidance of publicity, spring
ng these precinct meetings on the
voters before the Democracy OF the
county can possibly be informed Of them were
suggested by Mr. Hill himself. Certainly that
is his way. lie believes in calling his men
together under the forms Of regularity be-
fore his opponents can organize. and 80
taking them unawares. and 1t looks very
much as if the Henrico county committee
had decided to adopt the same tactics, and
call their meetings; organize them IN
the interests of Hill. and elect Hill
delegates to the county convention be-
fore the Henrico Democracy at large have
even heard when q county convention was
10 be held.
The committee may not have thought Of the
Injustice they would work to their fellow
Democrats by thus taking snap judgment
upon them. and they con rectify any mistake
in this respect thew may have made by
reconsidering their action. and post
poning their precinct meetings until due
and proper publicity can be given them. If
thev will do this then If Hill men are elected
to the county and State conventions, no Cleye-
land man will have any right to complain. If
they do not do So they will certainly be
amenable to the charge OF Hillism.

THE new minister to Ecuador is a young
man of twenty-eight who has had no oppor-
tunity of showing talent or force of character
since he graduated from college few years
ago. The appointment seems to have been
based on the high reputation which he won
as an INDEPENDENTLY no means safe test
OF the competency of man to be employed in
active diplomacy. There has been no minis
ter at Quito to represent the United States
for many wears, and the post is therefore one
OF more importance than the majority Of the
posts in South America.

Mn. CRIsP's position that he will not agree
to report a rule for cloture unless majority
of his party shall ask for it appears to us emf
nently reasonable. Cloture at best partakes
of the nature Of oppression. 1t is denial
Of free speech and = curtailment of freedom
In debate Its justification is that freedom of
debate is abused, and high privilege con-
verted into an obstruction Of orderly pro-

The Baptist Revival.

Another large congregation filled the
First Baptist Church last night, and
listened to a sermon of great power by
DIR. Hatcher. There was a deep feeling
and revival spirit that was encourag-
ing in the highest degree. Quite a
number OF unconverted persons asked
an interest in the prayers of the people
Of God. The sermon last night was "a
Fresh Start in the Religious Life"

Shechem and 20 to Bethel. The meeting
yesterday morning was largely attended.

A SENSATION IN LYNoHBuRG.
W. H. Wren I-regularly Involves His
Firm to the Extent OF $4,000.

LYNCHBURG, Jan. Special = For
several days ugly rumors have been
current in the city affecting the credit
and good name of Mr.. w. II. Wren,
until lately member of the firm of
Robinson, Tate e. Co. These rumors
were to tho effect that Mr.. Wren had
wrongfully used the firms name upon
his individual obligations for a consid i.
cradle amount.
MIR John Robinson, of Wythe county,
the head of the firm, arrived in the CITY
yesterday, and upon consultation con-
scented to make brief statement for
publication.
MIR. Robinson said that he would
probably be in a position to give a more
complete statement Tomorrow; that he
had come here expecting to see Mr..
Wren and did not know that he was out
of the city until he arrived here. He
did not know where he had gone. Mr..
Wren's transactions with the firm, he
said, had been very unsatisfactory of
late. He (Wren) had signed the firms
name for limited amounts, which sigma
lures they did not regard as legitimate
or proper. So far as he (Robinson) was
then informed MIR. Wren's Irregularities
OF this character amounted to So, 900 or
$4,000.
Mr.. Robinson could not say whether
or not the firm of Graham & Walker
was affected by Mr.. Wren's illegal trans
action, but if it was affected at all it
was for not more than few hundred
dollars.
Mr.. Wren left the city several days
ago and his whereabouts is not known.
He has been greatly depressed of late
in mind and body, suffering from an en-
feebled physique and nervous prostra-
parture from tho city he had been pre-
pairing ostensibly for visit to brother
In another State, and it may be that he
has gone there.

A. Koiner. Of Augusta, who was long
identified with the public interests of
the State as the former senator from
that county, an ex-president and still a
member of the State agricultural board.
The elegant Improvements which the
Norfolk and Western railroad com
menced here in the autumn are nearing
completion. The passenger station is a
model of convenience and comfort,
affording delightful opportunities for
rest and leisure to travellers. The large
area Of space surrounding the building,
an entire block in the plan of the town,
has been enclosed with low picket
fence and the grounds are receiving the
attention preparatory to planning the
driving and walking avenues and the
beautiful ornamentation of the design.
The Buena Vista Coronet Mills is

in full orders for the capacity of the
works. They are now at work on an
order for 10000 yards of cloth for the

RADFORD, VA, Jan. &c.


Until Sunday night, Jim Noell, the
owner Of several drays and a most re-
spectacle colered man and Bob San
ders, colored Norfolk and Western
brakeman, were fairly good friends.
But what was once clear sky between
the two is now black cloud. Jim and
Bob are no longer friends. and all on
account of dusky damsel. Bob is q
fugitive from justice and Jim has q
deep knife wound across his cheek
about four inches long, and will likely
carry the scar as reminder'of the oc-
casion for life. Jim Is quiet orderly
colored man, liked by all who know
him and is not much OF q ladys man,
but last night. acting upon q special in
vitation, he wendell his way through
darkness and mud to call upon Miss
Sarah Brandon. Rob Sanders had pre-
coded him. Upon entering the room
he found Sarah lying across
the bed complaining Of being
sick. Jim in his iovial way said oh, you
are only playing sick. Bob objected to
this, and upon Jim's replying that he
did not think he had any say in the
matter, as he had lawful wife, arose
and pushed Jim on the bed, which
broke down, at the same time gashing
him across the face with knife. 1t was
done so suddenly that Jim did not know
he was cut until he attempted to get up,
when he fonnd he was bleeding So far
Bob has not been apprehended and has
very likely put some distance between
himself and Radford ere this.
