AlfBUSCADING THE CONSTITUTION
AL CONVENTION

Gov. O'Ferrali is engaged in firing from
In an interview with newspaper man at
Richmond last week, the Governor said
SIT Is probable the State democratic con-
vention in Staunton will be expected to ap
prove the action of the General Assembly. Ii
so, think the convention should put itself on
record as favoring certain restrictions. Ali
kinds of charges as to the intentions OF the
democratic party in desiringa constitutional
convention Will be made by the enemies Of
the party; prominent among Their, will be the
following:
"First-That the homestead provision will
be stricken out.
"Second-Road service will be made com
pulsory.
''Ihrd-PrOvlsions radically inimical to
the railroads OF the State will be engrafted.
"Fourth-Unreasonahle Limitations upon CO.
operation BUSINESS enterprises will be insert
ed.
fth-Discrimination in the pse of the
pubic free-School funds.
'Sixth-EeGuction of the public free-schooi
term and Impairment CT the public free-school
system.
fWhileali such charges will be without
the slightest foundation. yet they will be
made by thel enemies of democracy. and the
convention should anticipate and meet them by
declaring in no uncertain tones that the dem
cratic party favors the present homestead pro-
vision and opposes compulsory road ser vice,
radical railroad legislation, unjust restric-

CONGRESS THIS 7IEEK

The great American wind centre, the
Senate, has kept up it's reputation 'lring
the week. Free Cuba and Free Silver have
had the floor, Mr.. Morgan and Mr.. Sher-
man for the former, and MI. Pugh fer the
latter. MI. Vest varied the monotony
Wednesday by a speech personally abusive
of the President.
The House has looked more to business
and done some. The joint resolution of
congress directing the Secretary of Agri-
culture to purchase and distribute seeds,
has become law without the President s
signature.
In the House, the resolution of Election
Committee No. 2, that G. F. Buck dem. J
the sitting member from Lou isiana, is en-
titled to his seat, was adopted.

Republican Chairman or ex-Chairman
Edgar Allan Of Richmond, writes to
friend in Alexandria charging that State
Chairman Lambs interference with the
local organizations is in order THAT he may
carry out his corrupt bargain to send
twenty-four white delegates to st. Louis
unpledged to any candidate, and only to be
traded off when he (Col. Lamb) can get the
assurance which lie wants of recogn ition
inside and outside of State lines. This is
substantially what he said he would do in a
letter marked strictly confidential a copy
of which 1 have in my possession.
The improper use of money by the Nc
Kinley people in obtaining delegates to st.
Louis, IS boldly charged by Senator Chand-
ler. 1t is alleged that the protected manu-
facturers are large contributors to this
fund. McKinleys friends have entered
New York and captured some delegates
from Morton. Colvin, coiored, who has
been South in the interest Of Gov. Morton
for the nomination, reports on his return
that ''the time to pay Southern Republi-
can delegate is after his vote has been
cast
There is likely to be a lively campaign
for the municipal government in Norfolk
next month between the Democrats and
ohibition-reformers, the latter of whom
now hold possession of the city government.
1t is stated that Rev. Sam w. Small will
open the campaign there April LIST. and on
April Sd Rev. Sam Jones will arrive there
to assist him.
State Chairman Lambs troubles seem to
crowd thickly upon him. The colored Re-
publlcans of Alexandria have held a meeting
protesting against his action in appointing
Jos. Crupper city chairman, who they said
was recommended to him by meeting of
white Republicans, at which ''only ten OIL
eleven white Republicans were present, D
and thereby lone Thousand negroes have
been left without any representation.
Mr.. Michael Murphy the newly appoint
ed Republican city chairman Of Richmond,
in place Of chairman Edgar Allen, deposed,
has sent in to State Chairman Lamb his
resignation, Oh account of ''ill health
DR.. Noble has been appointed to the place.

1--WE understand that there is concerted ac-
ton OH the part Of some Republicans to
defeat Gen. James A. Walker as one of the
delegates at-large to the St. Louis conyen-
tion.''

And sing the old sweet song,
About the noble nine we'll have
Ofplayers fleet and strong.
OF catchers who will stop ball,
Though from cannon shot;
OF batsmen who will hurl the sphere
A mile, as like as not.
OF pitchers who must turn their heads
And try to calm their nerves,
Lest they get oross-eyeG as they watch
Their own eccentric curves.
Oh, tell us Of the pennant brave,
And how y,ifh pride vel! glow

MANCHESTER LETTER.

All praise is given Mrs. NJ. Virginia
Nelson for the reproduction of the lit
tie ones on Monday night of last week
at the First Baptist Church. 60 "wee
bitter" boys and girls amused the au-
dience, while Messrs. Clifford Winfree
and John Baker strove hard to keep
the multitude of people under their
control, so that quietude might reign
supreme The new fe ature which wa
added, viz the "Dou ble-faced drill,
was real laughable, and the Captain,
Miss Willie Mccormick, deserves COM
ment for the manner in which she ma
noeuvred the lasses. Taking all in ali
it was grand affair.
We learn that Mr.. William +. Ed
wards will arrive in the city Wednes-
day, December 23rd, sometime be-
tween SUNRISE and sunset. He is
welcomed TO his old homestead, and
his friends will be more than glad to
meet the sterling and commanding
| gentleman of military fame in the
"land down South in Dixie" Mr.. Ed
wards was the captain of the Union
/ Guards, and no doubt, he and his
"boYs in blue" will have jollification
meeting. He has been residing in
! New York for number of years.
! Misses Savilla Elan and Sallie Elam
will spend the holidays among the

ing friends and relatives. We wish
them Il pleasant stay.

Ground Beneath the Wheels of a Locamo-
tive-A Terrible Accident

Richard White. a colored boy about
II years old, was run over on Concord
street 10y Shifting Engine No 6. Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad, shortly after
! O'Clock Monday evening, and was
instantly killed.
The accident occurred in front of
house 40. 536, and within stones
throw of the boys own home. The
body was terribly man xled, the head
being almost completely severed from
the trunk. and the right arm crushed
and torn from it's socket.
AS far as could be learned Tuesday
there were no eye Witnesses of the
fatality, and it was said that the engi
peer did not know the accident had
occurred until he was told OF it later.
The Coroner who was sent for as
soon as the accident was reported at
the First Police Station, conducted a
pi eliminary investigation into the
killing
The driver of the engine, which ran
over the boy was not arrested, strange
to say, but was only summoned to at
tend the inquest.
The body was removed to No. Ole
Concord street, the residence OF the
boys parents, and was prepared for
/ burial.
