the close of the campaign on the 9Th Of
November. His first appointment is at
the courthouse, Craig county. and the
next at Pocahontas. He speaks quite
confidently of a full delegation from
Democratic Virginia, and is hopeful Of a
Democratic House in the Fifty-sixth Con-
gress. His intercourse with leading and
representative men from every section
OF the country has led him to believe that
Democratic prospects were never more
| encouraging than within the past few
days.
THE SOLDIERS CAMPAIGN.
The mastering out of the soldiers who
we're in service In Cuba and Porto Rico.
and even those who were in camps Alger
and Chickamauga, and at Tampa and
other places, and who have scattered the
stories Of their privations, sufferings, and
frequently cruel treatment by incompe-
tent and negligent officials have seriously
injured the administration party, and, OF
course. helped the Democrats.
Senator Daniel anticipates quite a lively
and busy session of Congress the coming
| winter. The Republicans will endeavor
through, and, Of course, they will be sue
cessful in the House, but the Senate, as
1t always does. will take its time, and
consider everything carefully before al
lowing any bill to become law.
