The New York Standard (DemocraD speaks
of the Hon. WIN. G. RIvEs, of Virginia, in the
following terms: Possessed Of princely for
tune, finished forensic orator. thorough bred
gentleman, and almost courtier-a good general
scholar, and well read in beiles-leftres, young in
years, but rich in promise, WILLIAM G. RIvEs
became the most popular man of his State, and
was fast gaining name and place in his party
and the Union, at the time Of the nomination Of
Van Buren, and Johnson, by the Baltimore Con-
vention.
Coming from decided and political opponent
of Mr.. RvEs, in the midst of an animated poll
teal contest, in which the latter is taking a very
active part, the above is liberal, though not more
so'than truth and justice will warrant; and is
alike honorable TO both parties Mr.. RWEs is
one of the statesmen of whom not Virginia only,
but the. Union may justly be proud; and whose
talent, when the excitement of the present con-
test shall have passed away, will doubtless be
called into requisition, for the public benefit
