THE RIGHT or INSTRUCTION

The Public still demands ght--but we are unable to
furnish it. We are not yet aware whgther Mr.. Leigh
has announced his ntentionsor Indeed what are the
facts of the casewhether he has received his Cerf
cate of Election from the Governor-and if he has not
why ii has not been communicated The public mind is
becoming more and more impatient under the mystifca-
ton which covers Tie sublect-And if there be the
slightest truth in the following extract of letter of
May the 23d, from Philadelphia Correspondent of the
New York Commercial Advertiser, the People have a
right TO call for the denouement After giving an ac
count of the Baltimore Convention the writer thus pro-
cecds:
"By the bye, speaking of Virginia reminds me 10 say
to you, and speak ADyisEDLYhat il as decidedly
probable that MIR Leigh will be required to resign his
seat in the United States Senate The acts of the Bal
tInore Convention have given to Virginia politics IA
complexion that may materially change The views of the
majority of the Legislature and suffer MIR. Leigh
tain his seat. Up TO the last Monday he had not been
officially informed by Gov. TazeweIF of his election and
it supposed that his credentials had been kept back
with special reference the issue Of the Baltimore Con-
yenon. If, therefore, MIR. Leigh is disposed to resign
he cannot do til he receives certificate Of election.
Believing my informant docs, that cold Virginia. has
already escaped from the grasp of The Msgcian he
not that il will be necessary for the Virginia Senator
to resign his place merely 90 please the Office of
the country and the botehoders and pimps and spies
of the heir expcciant"
His credentials Kept taek with special reference TO
the Baltimore Convention, with any eye TO any par
y movement whateyer-and keptback by the Governor
Virginia. Such n circumstance would strike every
one with more than astonshment The people would
speak out in voice Of thunder If such design was
entertained il is destined TO defeat itself The call
culatons from the issue ofte Baltimore Convention will
all MI Leigh must vbey the right OF Instruction.
The desire Of Mr. Senator Mangum screen himself
der MIR. Leghs skirt and plead his precedent for his
own justification, must be defeated. Nothing could in
duce US, for moment, to Leleve that Mr. Leigh would
hesitate about the which lies plainly before
hmhu the giyingsup Of the Wing paper in this City,
which is either affecting to speak or to direct his SEN
tmcnts.
But lei the object be what il may the effect would be
TO put the great right Of instruction into jeopardy, and
TO bring Virginia the same level with North Carolina
and New Jersey whose servants have disobcycd their
orders. This must be preventcd-and therefore the
grounds taken by the Wing and its conpcers must be re-
viewed and xposcd. Correspondent undertakes the
task in the following Numbers:
s"As Sir Leigh gnoly elected gu the unexpired
that time did expire
Mafch not that the certificate should be
until the next session Of Congress-"

T0 7HE EDITORS Or THe ENQUIRER,
LHHcRJUrg COtuty, 10Th May, 1885.
Very after the election in the county of
Lunenburg, understood that IT had been announced in
the "Wlig" that was under pledge 10 support Judge
White for the Presidency This statement should have
denied at the time. but considered reflections quite
unnecessary, believed the events of the election fur
nlshcd sufficient rcfuaii0n Of the statement The wri-
Ter Of that letter, either from his zeal in the cause Of
Judge White, or, what is probable, his anxiety to
divide the party and thereby The election Of
man Of Wing pfinc pies, did certainly msunderstand
as giving pledge, whilst was merely expressing pre-
ference have, all occasions, expressed MY OPPOSE
ton TO any division in the ranks OF Inc Democratic par
y which believe would endangcr if not defeat the sue
Of Republican candidate, by throwing the election
before the House Of Representatives.; and to prevent that
result have long since declared my intention, 70 unite
in support Of the individual whom the entire strength
Of ihe party would most probably concentrate Should
believe Mr. Van BnFen 10 be that man, shall give him
my support.
This, is believed, will be deemed by you satisac-
tory answer 10 the nerrogatory In your paper Of the 18th
instant. Very respectfully yours &c
