solved there should be no election, and they
proceeded to enforce that tirm resolve ny
speaking against time-for by joint resolu-
ton already, adopted, the session was 10
close at the adjournment ON Monday. NOW
succeeded a scene of high interest to most
thrOn ged audience. e.
A succession of Wings took the floor, and
spoke with the most excited animation under
the "guillotine' of the previous question:
until halG-past two O'Clock, when the recess
occurred. Il was in vain that they were re-
peatedly calledto order by Loco Foco mem
bers, and reminded by the chair that they
were transcending the privileges OF the pre-
vious question. They would not be hand
cuffed. Their ingenuity bafaed every at.
tempt to put them down. They determined
to defeat an unholy scheme, and they did de-
feat it. Crutch6eid, VERIFY, Dorman, Stro-
ther, Taylor Of King George, Fulton, McKea'
TAYLOR of Norfolk Borough, deserve the
thanks and applause of the wing party and
the Commonwealth for defeating a most un-
iustifiable conspiracy to elect Chief Magis-
irate in the absence of fifty representatives
of the People, and when the minority had
procured a contrived" majority. And let
us tell that "contrived" majority, that il
speaking against time had not availed to de-
feat their stocking the cards, there was in
store another expedient that 'Ooud. There
was no chance .tor them to accomplish their
object from the beginning.

be abandoned. MIR. Brown of Preston, yield

having heard of what was going on had sud-

cordiaIity by their friends. We close now
with expressing our high satisfaction at the
overthrow of this scheme, and the thanks OF
the wings of Virginia to those who effected it.

From the Richmond Wing Of Tuesday.
ID. t- VIRGINIA..

Last Act Of the nramG.-There was ycster-
day great fermentation in III" rnis'o"i cir
cles here. The reader is appraised that on
Saturday Gov. Gilmer, without any previous
notice, and to the establishment of every Boz
dy, resigned his office. On that morning
many members of Assembly of each party
had returned to their homes, in the belief
that the business of the session had been vir.
tually brought to close. AT the moment of
the reception of the Governors message, for.
ty-tive seats were vacant in the House nf De-
legates alone. In five minutes after the
message was read, the Loco FocOS posted an
express after five of their number who had
left Saturday morning, finally. They were
ovcrtaken nine miles from town, and four of
the five returnGd-~,he fifth, Mr.. Dyer of the
Senate, said he had sat out for Missouri, and
would not return. Others of that party. liv-
ing on the line of the railroad, or at practi.
cable distances, were written to, and were in
their seats on yesterday morning. The Wings
was busy day, and the Locos appeared in
large numbers and high spirits.
On Saturdays law was hastily passed by
both Houses, changing the time of the CON-
mencement of the gnbernatorial term, and
recognising what we think is unquestionable,
the power Of the Legislature to fill a vacancy
in the Chief Magistracy, occurring during
its session by resignation. A resolution was
also offered for proceeding on yesterday to
the election of q Governor. -
Yesterday, soon after the meeting of the
House. the subject came up. The moment
it did so. by party preconcert. Mr. Brown of
Preston, moved the previous question on the
adoption of the resolution for proceeding in.
stGnter 10 the election of a Governor. The
object of this movement was to stifle debate,
and ram Loco Foco Governor down the
threats of the Wing majority. The Locos
had procured what was well described MS an
accidental" "God send," n " contrived''
majority. and they manifested the most re.
lentless eagerness to avail themselves of it
to accomplish a party purpose. They were
appealed to in every form, not to hurry on
an election of that consequence, when A5
seats were vacant-when nine-tenths of the
people had not heard Of it-on the last day
ut the session-when at the beginning of the
session, they themselves had bitterly com.
planned Of being forced into an election of
Senator, on account of the vacancy in ono
seat. that Of Louisa. All appeals were vain.
The member from Preston. Instructed in his
part. and continually strengthened in his re-
solution by the hecks and mods and whispers
Of the Loco RocO managers, refused to with
draw his call for the previous question. In
