FOR THE ENQUIRER

The q Signs of the Tines admonsh US of the use of
che most extreme degree OF caution the of our
public funciionares; specially of those of General
Government. Ii ever there period when all our
energies and patriotism should be put requison sure
lyit this The most fearful dissensons in be-
loved country, added to the agated disturbed
state OF almost the whole of Christeudem. Mems minds
every where, ripe for innovation. On Whatsoever
side turn there enough to excite the ivees an
prehensioRs for the continuance of happy nsi
buttons. In this state of things can there be human
being IN our community who does feel the awful ne
cessity OF weighing well every step we take? In looking
around for an individual to represent in tho Senate Of
the u States should exert unusual circumspec-
don' To all those qualities which generally required
these should be added mistaken nrepdiy personal and
POLITICAL unwavering rnness and consumnate prudence
The State OF Virginia from the Developments of its
opinions ought to require from its Senator's undoubed
cqvoca and decided proofs, OF their appreciation the
general Of the present administrations The strange
opinions sometimes hear in favor of Senator so indie
pendent as to thwar the measures Of Government Gp-
prooed Dy hs constituents, cannot be general No man.
whose pretenons enc him aspire to the high and Dig

capable of lending his aid TO measures clearly unconsi-
tutOnal, directly hostile to sound morals. With this
reservation, undoubtedly ought expect Of him de-
cded proofs OF his appreciation OF the general course OF
this administration il these opinions be Just, TO whom
can we look with more confidence than TO VIM s. Ar

aoxious articles Of the dcmsgogue. He stands before
the public with the airest title its confidence and aC-

WASHINGTON, MARCH 2sth. 1882.


DEAR SIR Yours of the 18th inst, is Just re-
ceived, there is bill reported by the Committee
on Roads and Canals, to whom the resolution
was referred, the subject of approprating
$500 for an examination and survey of the Kas-
kia River am inclined to believe it will pass,
though have doubts, there is so much opposi-
ton of the kind, by very strong party in Con
gress. Some weeks ago, reported bill giving
presumption rights to the settlers on the relin-
pushed College Township, of its passage in the
Senate, have no doubt, / had supposed it was
in the Vandalia district, it certainly ought to be,
and will attend 10 so having it.
The 40 acre law has passed the House Of Rep
resentanves, though very much altered for the
worse, from what it was when passed in the Sen
ate; but it is the best could be got in the House
of Representatives, the opposition to it was so
great-and the Senate could not do better than to
agree to the amendments, OF totally lose the bill.
Gen. Jackson Is in fine health, notwithstand
ing the opposition papers state the reverse, they
have their object and a mean one it must be,
when such utter fasehood is resorted to-
think The price Of Public Lands will be re-
duced in the course of this session; we have the
subject joined with the Tariff. and if they can
be kept together, have no doubt but the result
will be favorable.
Your friend, and obedient servant,
JOHN M ROBINSON.
