Polynesia, may be summed up as Enthusiastically,
that the subsidence was not continuous, but inter-
rupted by long periods during which the land, and
after Its disappearance, the reef, remained stationary,
and the successive terraces were formed; secondly,
that it continued, at least in certain places, up to a
comparatively recent day, and ceased not long after
the total submergence of the pre-existing land; third
ly, that there followed an indefinite interval of re-
pose, with the reef at a sufficient depth below the
surface OF the ocean, to enable the polypes to con-
struct the overhanging shelf whose fragments now
strew the upper plateau; %fourthly, that to this quies-
cent state ensued one of re-elcvation,* at a period of
which, when the shelf was considerably lower than
the plateau now is, yet exposed to the full violence
OF the surf, it was torn off and the fragments carried
to their present locality; and lastly, that this re-ele-
vatory process is still going forward, not only in the
coral groups, but also in most of the volcanic ones of
Polynesia"
*There is one popularity in the sea or barrier reefs of
all the volcanic islands, for which, unless il is to he attri-
buted to the recentness Of their elevation, | can at present
suggest no explanation. l refer to the entire absence upon
them, no matter how exposed may be their situation, of
any fragmentary ridges, such as are found at every Pau
lmotu, even where the distance from the outer plateau to
the lagoon is much less than the breadth of some barrier
reefs.

humiliation Of having countenanced the corrup-
tons OF Van Burenism. II was never, we be-
lieve, in the informed spir, Of Virginia, to have
submitted to the one, or m her love of virtue. To
have countenanced the other. But, trusting to
false guides, she was misled and betrayed.
10 this grateful task. then, of redeming the
State and resea,ing her in her accustomed place
oil honor-'et all and each Of us, in his degree,
soiemnly and disinierestedly dedicate hmself.-
Let seIhshness be wholly lost sight of in love of
country. Ii, as has been truly and beautifully
said, there Is " a victory in dying well. for ones
country SO is defeat in the country's cause a
triumph-for to have nobly striven, gives title to
Tue laurel, whether success or failure attend the
effort.
We recommend then, that every election, un-
derwhatever circumstances, be strongly contested
every district, every county, every precinct tho
roughly canvassed. Let the Wings bring every
where into the field, their worthest mcn-ihe a.
oiest to instruct and enighten the people. Arm
ed IN the Panop'y of truth-impeled only by love
OIL country, her honor and interesis-her happi-
ness and glory--dedcated to recall her from
strange Gods, and false worship, to tho ancient
Wnig lelth OF Revolutionary ancestry-the sons
OF Virginia will go forth to battle.
AS the ignorance, superstition and tyranny of
the Jackson rule-the pusillanimiy, pronigacy
and selfshness of the Van Buren, ascendancy
have been brought, by discussion, more and more
into the light of day, the further and further has
suc idileH away from the error oil tnetT advocacy
affording another and gratifying proof that g Err
ror, indeed, ceases to be dangerous when reason
is left free TO combat it," The vast majority of
1861 votes given by Virginia 20 Jackson in
1928, dwindled to less than 1900 in 1870 To
the same full and free discussion-the sword and
shield at once of public Liberty, (and first be it
remembered, fully evoked in its defence by the
WING party,) we owe this great and encouraging
change; and TO the same means, having no terrors
for the honest, but feared and fled from by the
corrupt, shall we surely be indebted, if we zeal
ously employ them, for the speedy, complete and
glorious redemption of the Common wealth.
No son of hers, who is true Wing, will stand
back on that day which is TO restore Virginia to
her high place among her sisiers-agan enls,
her under the banners Of the Constitution and
Laws-of Good Government and True Liberty
and crown the triumph of her illustrious son
from whom she has been so long eslranged, by
taking him back again to her bosom but ali
every one will go forth to assured victory, as the
watchword shall pass from hilltop to hilltop
over plain and over valley, "VIRGINIA MUST
< BE RED EEMED."
