IL The Enquirer and other an Buren, papers
are publishing MIR. Lcigh's elaborate and profound
kenort and Resolutions, made In the Virginia C
gl>atnrc, in 1872, vindicatng the Right of In
straction, and establishing 1t ON the imno,eatc
basis OF truth aud reason. They thereby show
their own Inconsistency and want of veraeitv, in
stigmatzing Mr.. Leigh as an enemy of that car1i
nal doctrine. In 1912, Mr. l.. indicated the Right
OF Instruction, aud in 1896 be will not prove re-
creant TO his principles.
We think the Lynchburg Nireinian, is mistaken
+ IN us suppoSton OF the author OF the communica-
tons signed Light in the Enquirer. No less a

III asteriSks in Mr. Jetlcrsons Letters, could give
birth to such vile productions.

sructcd hy an Overwhelming majority, ito vote
against any AMI every resolution which may be
submitted tothc Legislature, either Direct, or midi
reclle, to instruct NJ. Leigh to resign his seat IN
the next L. :. senate" We hope the gentleman
is satisfied.
~ One branch Of the Legislature of North
Carolina, although the political complexion of it j,
adverse to the " hig>, has adopted resolutions by
handsome majority, approving Mr.. Clay's
scheme for the disposiricn of the Public Lands.
This is a triumph of sound policy over party, the
influence of which will, We hope, be felt by the
Virginia Legislature.
a." Two members of the present Congress- Sc
na,or Smith aud Mr.. Wdman, both from Connec-
teat, have already paid the great debt of nature.
In the sublime language Of Burke, these di>pcnsa-

d. A large meeting was held in Knoxville ON
the I'd inst and resolutions adopted dcnonncing
the conduct of the Georgia Guard, in the late ar

can,-and John Dickinson, an eminent citizen Of
Caroline.
a. The Treasury Reports about long as the
Presidents Message. If our public writers do not

Philadelphia in seven hours, aud New York in

meeting last Saturday evening, " for the purpose
OF making preliminary arrangements for the meet

tors OF President and Vice President of the Uni-
