STATE POLITICS.

A letter from Richmond says: There is
going to be moro than the usual amount OF
new blood in the legislature next session. A
large number of the old members are declin-
ing reelection, and many of those who are
running have strong opposition. Already in
some cases the contests are on. This is espe.
cially true of Louisa, Clarke, Warren and
Frederick. Some of the leading senators will
be missed, among them Mr.. Lovenstein, who
has died since last session; Mr.. Little, of
Fredericksburg, who declines to run again,
and Mr.. Hay, promoted to Congress. Judge
Baker P. Lee, who served two sessions in the
House with distinction, is now on the bench,
and Col. John g. Harwood, of this city, will
not stand for reelection. 1 have learned
that DR.. ]. w. Southall, of Amelia, has re-
oeiyed many letters urging him to become q
candidate for superintendent of public instruc.
ton, and it is said ne has practically decided
to do so. The doctor is now a member of the
state Senate. He oppo.ed Mr.. Massey when
the latter was last elected. 1t is said if DR.
Southall decides to enter the race he and his
friends will not lose any time in getting down
to work 70 capture votes. Mr.. George M.
Helms, of Franklin county, according to re-
ports received here, will be one of the many
persons who will aspire to succeed Mr. Lynn
as superintendent of the penitentiary. 1t is

IN MEMORIAM.

Miss BLANCHE WIGFIELD died in Alex
andria, Va, Monday, July 3. 1897. aged p
years.
For twelve months disease had preyed
upon her frame, and the last months of her
earthly life we're spent in constant suffering.
She was member OF the Methodist Church
and devoted Christian. In sll her sickness
she was patient and cheerful seeking to
cheer those who ministered to her when they
gave way to their grief. Never during al
her long sickness did she once murmur, but
kept herself in subsection to the will Of God,
patiently suffering His will.
This writer never saw better illustration
of the power of divine grace to keep the child
of God in suffering and in death. When the
end came she was ready, making only one re-
quest, and that that, her Lord would come
quickly to take her to rest, and having only
one care, that her friends would all get ready
to meet her in heaven. She was conscious to
the last moment and fell sweetly asleep in
Jesus.
blessed are the dead which die in the
Lord from henceforth yea, smith the spirit,
that they may rest from their labors." W.

places which were included in Mr.. Cleveland's

however has not been reached, but it is alto

taken out of the classified service. These
will include deputy collectors of customs who

The development Of insanity in ne

almost unheard OF occurrence, but now
the ssylums for such unfortunstes are

however, is plain. There is nothing 30

insanity than care, worry and anxiety.
When slave, the negro was blessed
with the former, and entirely relieved OF

Offices to perplex, agitate and confound

now. The schools only teach them
how to get into jails and penitentiaries,
idleness leads them into all kinds of
