VIRGINIA RESOLUTIONS of 1888, pro

VIRGINIA RESOLUTIONS Of 1883, pro
nouncing the alien and sedition tdrs to be
unconstitutional, and defining the rights Of
The states. Draun By Mr. Madison
In THE VIRGINIA HOUSE OF DELEGATES,
December d. 1898.
RESOLVED, That the General Assembly OF
Virginia doth unequivocally express firm
resolution to maintain and defend the consltu-
ton of the United States, and the constitution
OF this state against every aggression either Tor
eign or domestic; and that they will support
the government of the United States in all
measures warranted by the former.
That this Assembly most solemnly declares
a warm attachment to the Union of the states,
to maintain which 1t pledges its powers; and,
that for this end, it is their duty to watch over
and oppose every iniraction of those principles
which constitute the basis Of that Union, be-
cause faithful observance Of them can alone
secure its existence and the public happiness.
That this assembly doth explicitly and per-
Iemptorily declare, that lt|views the powers OF
the federal government, as resulting from the
compact to which the states are parties; as
Limited by the plain sense and intention Of the
instrument constituting that compact; as no
farther valid than they are authorized by the
grants enumerated in that compact; and that
IN case of deliberate, palpable, and danger-
GUS exercise of other powers, not granted by
the said compact, the states, who are parties
thereto, have the right, and are in duty bound
to interpose, for arresting the progress OIL 'he
evil, and for maintaining within their Tespec-
tive limits the authorities, rights, and llber'ies
Iappertaining to them.
That the general assembly doth also express
its deep regret, that spirit has in sundry IN
stances, been manifested by the federal govern
ment, to enlarge its powers by forced eonstruc-
tons of the constitutional charter which de-
fines them; and, that indications have appear
CO.. E fl design to expound certain general rlfa
@ t"nich' having been copiad n'n tue very
limited grant of no.~~.s in the former articles
OF confederation, were the less liable to be mis-
construed, } so as to destroy the meaning and
effect OF the particular enumeration which me-
cessarily explains and limits the general phra-
SEES, and so as to consolidate the states by de-
grees, into one sovereignty, the obvious tenden-
dency and inevitable result of which would be, !

STRANGE MuRDER-The Nashville Banner.
IL the lst. Inst. states, that on Sunday morning
Michael Hoover and William Pryor, were
ound in back room of retired house on the
Public Square, with their heads shockinely
rused, one of them weltering in blcol, and
with fractured skull. When found, Prvor
WIS senseiess, and Hoover nearly so. and such
WAS their condition, that neither could give any
account of the circumstances connected with
the affair Pryor died on Sunday night; Hoover
was living when the Banner was put to press,
out was still unable to give any information
that would lead to the detection of the perpe-
i ators Of the horrid deed, The Republican
says, that three hundred dollars were found in
Hoovers pocket, so that plumber was not the
object of the assassin. Several persons have
been taken up on suspicion
| On Sunday, Vincent Woverton, who had
been shot the preceding week in the street by
r.. C. Woodward died of his wound Wood
ward surrendered himself, but it appearing u
clear case Of self-defence, he was discharged
by the examing magistrates.
| On Saturday las, Mr.. William I'll. Bryan,
a citizen of Nashville, was thrown from his
horse and instantly killed Lou Herald.

rtucS ior the llQudation OF al least very doubt
flu claims upon the country. That in 1888.
! he Comite de iSalut Pubique having illegally
seized and captured several American ships.
he Government of the United States put in a
ain for indemnication. Napoleon refused
to acknowledge the debt contracted by the Re
public, and soon afterwards the DEGREES of Mi.
AN and Berlin became the source of new
claims on the part Of the United States. Bona
parfe, without attaching much importance to
hem, sent them to commission, which declared
all the ships duly seized and condemned, and
that the claims were the more unfounded, as
many of the ships had false papers. In 1916,
Mr.. GALATIN, then American Minister in
farls, opened negotiation on the claims.
which lasted till the revolution of July.
Two commissioners were appointed, one du-
ring he Ministry of the Duke de Richelieu.
The other under M, de Villele's administration.
Both were OF opinion, that out Of 25,OOO.O OOf.
claimed by this country, 10 ,000, 0O0f were not
ue, and that the ten remaining millions should
aot be paid until the United States had admits
ed French claims, founded upon the Sth art--
Gle of the treaty relating to louisiana In con-.
quence, M. de Villele proposed to open one and
the same negotiation; our minister rejected
this proposal, and such was the real value of
those claims. that they were openly quoted at
New York and Philadelphia at 90 per cent.
discount. The French might easily, therefore
have bought them up. But NJ Sabastiani ap.
pointed new commission, which decided pre-
cisely as the two former ones had done--pamc-
ly, that out of 25,0O0,OOO, 100000 were
inadmissable-and yet, in the face of such ac.
cumuated evidence, NJ. Sebastian signed a
treaty by which he uselessly gave up to US all
we claim.
| We have no objection to this version of the
matter now definitely settled; at any rate, it
conveys high compliment to the address. of
the American negociation.--N Y. Coz. and
