DISGRACEFUL IN THE EXTREME

We copy the following from the Cincinnati
Commercial, neutral paper:
SHAMEFUL.-A correspondent of the Louis,
Vile Journal, writing from this city under date
of April Oath says:
"T'he sum of about seven thousand FIVE hun
dred dollars was raised here with liberal sup
ply of provisions for the Pittsburgh sufferers A
member Of the committee, appointed for the pur
pose, called at the Life and Trust Company, te
procure exchange for the sum remitted to the
sufferers. This liberal concern, although they
had not contributed to the fund, Gerry liberdIt,
charged the moderate rate of exchange, of on'
and a quarter per cent, and all this for chdr'ty'
sake"
These banks, some of them we mean, beat al
in their de mands Who would have thought the
Trust Company men mean enough 10 charge ;
per cent, upon donation to the unprotected sut
lercrs by that great fire, and they not contribu

FROM VIRGINIA.!
Federalism Completely swamped! /!


The Washington Union, after publishing re-
turns from the Virginia election, sums up the fl
nal result, as follows. We should rather think
that WILLIAM C. RIvEs, the traitor Senator, will
be for departing for England, like Santa Anna,
where he will find congenial spirits to comfort
him in his defeat. BY the way, the English tory
journalists manifested good deal of anxiety in
regard to the result in Virginia, as the political
completion of the U. S. Senate appears to de-
pend upon the Legislature of Virginia:
The results of the election in Virginia are
therefore brilliant and decisive.
We have gained one senator at least, thus ma

above. Sir George Simpson has been acting as
deputy Tor resident governor of the Hudson's
Bay Company, (he governor himself being in
London and we doubt very much whether the
governor of the Hudson's Bay Company has not
been mistaken for governor of Oregon. II is
also questionable problem whether the crown
would, or perhaps could appoint, under present
circumstances, governor of Oregon. But, if
the above paragraph should prove TO be correct,
there remains to be shown how far this overt act
of appointing governor OF the Oregon Terri
tory, does not amount TO sort of livery of sci
sin; whether Great Britain is not claiming, Of
right, the territory over which she appoints an
acting governor; and whether the British minis

THE LAND MONEY

The Locofoco Senate has rejected the resolu
ton Of the House of Delegates to authorize the
Treasurer Of the Commonwealth to receive Vir.
gin'a's share of the Land money, (some 600, }
which accrued under the Wing Distri5u,on act
and which has been lying in one Of the Rich.
mond Banks for several years past. This is the
third time the money has been rejected by oul
Legislature, and we presume it will now be re.
claimed by the General Government. The base
'nRlaE," (for so our opponents will have i,,) il
thus appears is too small to move the Virginia
Democracy from their propre,y! Not so, how
ever, the two millions of dollars received unde,
the Jackson Distribution act. They were ap
poaled to by the Wings, on the score of princ
pie and consistency, if they would not accept the
one, to make provision for the return of the 9th
er.-But it was all in vain.-They have no fan
cy, 1t would seem, for the practice of such price
less and unpurchaseable virtue.

u. S. SENATOR.

The Senate on Thursday rejected the resolu-
ton Of the House for the election of a Senator to
succeed Mr.. RIvEs.-The following was the
vote, the question being on indefinite postpone
ment, which had been moved by Mr.. Taylor:

Three Of the Democratic Senators, it will he
observed, voted against the motion but the En-
quirer publishes a note in explanation of Mr..
Crawford's course. 1t seems he had no consti-
tntonal scruples, but only preferred another mode
Of doing the same thing. 1t was merely mat
ter of taste with the gen,leman-not one of
principle. With Mr.. Baptist we know it was
otherwise-and so also, we hope, with Mr. Sloan.
1t remains to be seen how the people of Virginia
will regard such factious conduct.

ANNEXATION IN MAINE. AGAIN.

The following resolution was on the 3Oh ulti-
mo presented to the Senate Of Maine by one Of
the advocates Of immediate unconditional san
nexation," and its second reading refused by a
vote Of 13 to 6:
"Resoiued, That this Legislature highly APP
prove the resolves passed by the House Of Rep
rssentatives January 18th, 1915, admitting the
territory of Texas into the Union"
The same resolution was presented to the
House Of Representatives by Calhoun member
Of that branch, and indefinitely postponed by the
very decisive vote Of IS to 8. Thus Maine has
condemned the scheme Of annexation passed by
the House of Representatives of the United
States, and approved of the stand taken by ma
jority of her delegation in Congress-.

THE NATURALIZATION LAWS.

The New York Evening Post states that the
Commissioners appointed by the Senate of the
United States to look into the practice which pre-
walls in the naturalization of aliens, are in the
city of New York, holding their sessions with
closed doors, and sending for persons and papers.
Commissioners are employed in the other chief
cities on the maritime border in making similar
inquiries.
We have no hope Of the passage at this session
of Congress Of any act for reform of the laws
regulating Naturalization. We believe, however,
that the investigation instituted by the Senate
committee will elicit most valuable information,
such as cannot fail TO exercise salutary influence
on the next Congress upon the subject.
