CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN GOV. Sc
WARD AND RECORDER MORRIS

The New Era and Herald Of January l8h con-
tain spondeuce between the Governor of thi.
State and MIR. Recorder Morris, relative TO the er
ira Judicial proceedings Of the last named function
airy in the "Gentworth affair" THIS correspon-
pondsnce ia pretaced by card " to the public"
over the signature OF Mr.. Morris, in which, he al.
leses that Governor Seward after having made Ger.
tain charges against him, and requested his answer
thereto. subsequently recommended his removal to
the Senate before the answer requested could
reach Albany
The letter OF the Governor is short and pithy-
The Recorders reply is long. elaborate aud evident
y intended TO be murderou.ly sarcastic; i, is how
ever, in our judgement, wholly inconclusive.
Governor Seward in his letter says:
" The most mature elaboration has satisfied me
that in the stated, any search warrant for the
private papers Of the accused. which papers were
alleged to have been teoniously stolen or unawfally
acquired, would Lave been violation Of the most
sacred private rights. and Of the most cherished
principles of civil liberty and that the seizure of
such papers, in such case. by you a judicial Of
heer without warrant oath, was more aggrava.
ted than the issuing of search warrant would have
been because 1t was muging of executive and jul
dica function. deroRatory TO your station and Jan
gerous to The citizen"
In reply, Mr.. Morris admits tia, if M other lc.
sal authority existed for making search than the
statutes, his conduct was iudclensibls.
Mr. Morris then goes on TO assert. in substance.
that he had received Information which established,
IN his judgment. the fact Of the existence of "a
conspiracy 10 suhvert the fundamental principles Of
our repabican government" and refers the govern
or TO the sihdavis Of Stevenson and Others. as evil
dence OF that fact. He then undertakes TO show,
that such Icing the case, he was justified in the
course he pursued, by law and precedeRt II is al
together unnecessary TO examine the superstructure
of he Recorders srgument--the founds alton is rot,
1 ten. No treason was proven. The reliable testi.
mony taken before the Recorder amounted TO moth
! ing that would justify suspicion Of crime agains,
! men Of respectable character
As regards the charge brought by Mr. Morri.
against the Governor, Of having recommended his
/ removal without waiting reasonable time Cor his
publication" we shall say nothing until w hev.
heard both sides.-N. T. Time. & Star

they were all murdered-their throats cut from ear

THE NORTHEASTERN BOUNDARY.

The w ashington Correspondent of the New York
Courier and Enquirer, under date Of the 9th inst
auding TO the course Of the Negotiation between
the Governments of the United States and Great
Britain on ;he Boundary question, royerts to the
fact of Mr.. Christopher Hughes having been Gr ST
| nominated to the Senate BY President Adams al
the Session of Congress in 1899, to be Minister
TO the Hague, with view to the arbitration be.
fore the King OF the Netherlands, } snd the reiec
ton OF that nomination upon the party ground
upon which the most important nominations then
| II ade by Mr.. Adams were rejected for the purpose
Of reserving all such appointments and concentra-
ting the greatest possible amount of patronage in
the hands Of Gen. Jack son, who was to come into
office the 4th of March following; the conse.
queace Of which rejection was, that in due time,
the mission was bestowed upon MIR treble. The
correspondent of the Courier adds TO this reminis-
cence the following, which CORES ponds with the
Impression which has been made upon, our mind on
the same subject:
" 1t is the opuon Of persons the best compe tent
to judge, and from what they huye said confident
lS believe. that, if Mr. Hughes had received that
nPPoiasrnent. his Influence at the Hague and his
means of access TO, and intercourse with, not the
Dutch Ministers alone. but the King himself. would
have enabled him to satisfy the arbi,er of the jus.
tice OF the Pretensions OF the United States ard
would have brought about decision of the North.
eastern Boundary Question in our favor"
Thus, the frs, committed in regard TO the
Boundary negotiation in the choice of an gent
the part of the United States to attic nd to the ar
biIation.
A second error, we believe was committed in
the rejection of the award OF the King Of the Meth
eIlands, under the Treaty of Client, after it was
made. Upon that head there is, some difference OF
opinion among patriotic citizens Of both our great
political parties. For our part, We wish that il
could have been accepted.
third error WAS committed, We apprehend, by
the present Executive in declining carry into e
feet the Wishes of Congress, indicated two years
ago, by the making of an appropriation for the out
fit and salary OF a Special Minister TO Great Bri-
lain Whatever doubt might have existed in the
mind OF the President to the expediency of such
special mission. might well have yielded to thi.
expression of opinion by Congress the subject.
We allude to this Last with less hesiiaiioR
because, ms we have heretofore intirna,ed, We are
disposed, errors excepted, to approve the gene
raj course Ut the present Executive upon this deli
cate question.--Nat Int.

CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTION.


On Monday next the Wing delegates from the
various counties Of this Congressional District will
assemble in Winchester to nominate Wing Candi-
date for Congress We believe i, to be true and
see benefit in concealing or Disgusting the fact
thst, from various circumstances the action Of the
Convention viii be delicate and d,fhcut, and no
nomination that is likely TO be made will give very
general satisfaction. Under such circumstances,
il behooyes the Convention to abjure all sectional
and personal considerations aud act with deliberate
caution and irmness, and have no cause for doubt
that they will thus act. When the selection shall
be made Of 81 individual we call upon every Wing
to know him only as the designated bearer of the
Wing banner and through him 10 give active. ener-
getic, and vigorous support TO The principles for
which they have valsnty fought, and in whose
name they have gloriously triumphed Let every
true Wing, who prefers " the welfare of Rome to
the glory of Cesar who is disposed to battle for
his country rather than for his own or his friends
which he il embarked by sacrificing 10 that cause
all selfish and sectional prejudccs and preferences
We, too, have private feeling. and wishes on
the subject, and they are perhaps not less ardent
than the feelings and wishes of others, but We trust
in heaven have none that we cannot oyfully sur.
render to the interests of the country and the sue
cess Of the Wing party.
At ihe recent Presidential election. every body
knows what laurels were won by the Wings in this
Congressional district, by the laundering majority
which gave for Old Tip. Shall we then, who
have thus assisted in calling him to the Presidency,
now, when the battles tug is hand, prove false,
and craven in the cause, and send to C ngress a
loco foco representative, who will strain every
nerve to embarrass and cripple the new admins
tration. Let us not be understood as desiring the
election OF party tool subseIvient 10 the executive
will Alas no, the country has had enough Of that.
We ask only from the Convention, the name Of AZ
honest, independent firm Wing, who will heartily
cooperate with General HARRtsoH in restoring
healthful action to the Government, and who will
resist dangerous and improper measures from what
ever quarter they may come. And such name
we are. assured, shall have, for none has been
mentioned will be mentioned in Convention. of
which any district in Virginia mtg not be proud
How clear aud well defined, then, is the duty OF
every Wing and Conservative. Let him deliberate.
~ consult his own conscience and judgment, and
act upon the responsibility tina, rests upon every
man having voice in the government

SECRETARY OF THE NAVY

Our Navy is admitted by all knowing ones, to

For a number of years past those appointed 10 the
head Of the Department, have lacked knowledge

cesstul management ct ths most important depart.
ment of our Government-approptiatel termed
the right arm of the national defence 1t has long
been matter Of surprise that the Secretaries
Of the Navy have not been taken Occasionally, at
easD from that branch Of the service. In tina,
case, is presumable that all the wants of the se-
vice could he better attended to, more easily made
known, and its peculiar technical regulations more
Systematically enforced besides, it strikes us, it
would measurably tend to change tho party char
acter Of the appointment.
Our attention has been called to this subject by
discussions in Sc eral respectable journals, as to
the propriety of the appointment OF Lieut.. Maury,
as Secretary of the Navy by Gen. Harrison. OPP
position i. made to it by the score Of his
being only Lieutenanti by others, of his youth.
Now, it seems plain, that the only questions ne
cessary arc "ls he honest Is he capable 7" and
these being satisfactorily answered, the judicious-
ness of the selection would at once be determined.
