General Leo Taike.
Richmond, Va., December 10.—
General Fitzhugh Lee, who since his
retirement from tho gubernatorial
chair, has devoted his energies to t!
development of tho hu.-iui-qg of the
Rockbridge Company, i3 here to
night, in fine spirits and pcrfecl
health.
“I am out of politics,” said the
genial ex-governor.
Being asked his preference for tho
presidential nomination, two years
hence, he said:
“That is some distance oil yet, and
thiuk Senator Dtnicl struck the
idea when lie said that it would bo
wisest to let the issue of the campaign
be more clearly defined, and then
sdect the man who bc-t represents
them, and to whom sutx-em h most
certain to come.”
Irby succeeds Wndc Hamntou in
the U. S. Senate. And to .South
Carolina has branded, as no longer
worthy the confidence ol the people,
the man to whom the people^! thnt
state owe more than any man living
or dead.
Shame!
