THE APPROACHING CANVASS.

L
For Tho mas, week we have been detained ny
/ deeply interesting engagements, from inc po'i'i-
cal arena, and are therefore not as iamiiiaf WIN
the recent political events as we should oesi!e.-
But we cannot forcgo the present opportunity 10
remind our Republican friends that The spring
election will take place iE little more man '"o
weeks, and TO ask them ifhey are ready TO 10 heir
whole duty. Weresret 10 see that SO mucn aPd'hy
exists throughout The S.ate-we regret SIN moie
10 see that in some OF The counties, as Ma"he"s
and Middesex, and in some ofthe Senatorial DIS
tricls. as in the King William Distric', our
friends are divided among themselves. we
soemnly warn them thai unless they cease theii
wranglngs and centre upon some good ana ia''h-
I'll soldier their opponents will steal march upon
them, and bear off the palm. We urge tnem, oy
all The interest they feel in Their long cherished
principles, to forget men and 10 strike an unHeo
and efficient blow for the cause which Virginia
has 50 faithfully maintained Is Virginia less de-
voted than formerly 10 the Republican cause, thai
sac shoud now fold her arms and suffer lie ms.
chievous doctrines OF The federal school 10 supplant
her own glorious principles IS she less op'
posed 10 an oppressive Tariff, TO wild and M
constitutional system OF national Internal I'M
provements, or 10 the unjust and conupIins Dis
,ribulion OF The Land Fund, that she should now
rest susgishly on her past deeds, and thereby
indirectly aid in the election Of Senator OF the
United States, who would vote for all those re-
pudiated measures, and throw The old Dominion
in the power OF her most dangerous opponents
Unless our Republican friends come forth, such
will be The inevitable result.
We urge them 10 act with the spirit and bar
mony, that acuaed the Republicansot Henrco
al their meeting yesterday. They have come
forth, resolved "io do OF TO die" They have SET
a noble example for every county in The Stale
an example OF union, energy and harmony
every hing for the cause and nothing for men.
We call upon The people to take The matter into
their own hands They can elect any one whom
they please and can keep their principles always
triumphant. fthey divide their votes 10 suit The
views ofindividual aspirants they may well sur
render all hopes of seeing their principles sustain
ed and perpeluated.

WASHINGTON, JAN 10, 1876.
There appears to be little desire to do any thing
with Oregon until the news by the expected steamer
reaches u.s. which all anticipate will be Of the great
est Importance.
The city is full Of Strangers Of all classes, charac-
tiers and colors; and the sunny side Of Washington
Avenue is literally crowded from morn ill twelve at
night
Lord what group the motley scene discloses.
False wits, false wives false virgins and false spouses
statesmen with brides on and close beside EN-,
Patriots in parti-colored suits that ride EN-"
OF course everybody knows that a "certain class
OF persons, other than office seekers, make their
appearance here BY thousands, simultaneously with
our legislators. These ''transient customers" walk
twilight until IL o'clock midnight, frequently using
indecent language to the passers by, both male and
female. n.
Yesterday was a very cold day-the ponds were
all frozen over and the mud that was in the streets
Is solid as q rock.
This evening an amusing scene occurred on the
avenue, between Tyler and Briche's and Coeman's
An honorable gentleman ii the House, who is in
the habit OF taking wee bit, was vending his way
down the street with zigzag movement, as if he
had the wind "dead ahead" when large dog
came out Of door directly opposite the N g. and
Notwithstanding this gentleman "goes the whole"
tor war with England, here his firm nerves trem-
bed-his courage forsook him, and he retreated in
armed himself with huge club, he again fearlessly
approached his adversary, prepared to give him bat
tie. BY this time, large number of boys and idlers
% or 90 in ALL had assembled witness the contest
The dog barked, and the member fourished his
club, and all that could be heard, amid the general
roar OF laughter, was occasional "Hit him, Mac
-"bite him, bull - The battle lasted for some mi
nutes, when the owner came and took away his
dog, and the other combatant, being now in peace
able possession OF the neld, pursued his way unmo
Tested.

tal mind can foretell II notice shall be given to
terminate the Joint occupation al the end Of twelve
months, Mr. Calhoun and his friends will then 90
tor the largest preparations TO place the country in
proper position, not only TO our title up
5f40, but to sustain our national honor aud national
glory, wherever the badge OF our national soye-
reIgnty may spread its ample folds.
Let me now give you one cr les striking facts
yesterday heard very Intelligent gentleman a far
mer, from the interior OF Virginia, tell his repre-
sentative that the people OF his part OF the country
were Tor maintaining the national henor and ma
tonal rights, and that they thought this could be
be done without going TO war at present-that for
himself, he went for the notice; but Tor such no.
tlce as would allow ample time 10 arrange the mat
ter amlcaby, which he thought could yet be done
Another fact heard me mber OF Congress say,
that ne had been trying for TWO weeks to get the
toor In order to relieve his feelings by hurting de-
fiance in the teeth Of Great Britain and of express
ing himself in favor OF the shortest notice. He ex-
pressed himself truly thankful, however, that he did
not obtain 1t; for that more reflection, and letters
from his constituents had almost entirely changed
his mind; and that il ne should now address the
House, he should make a widely different speech
from what he would have done ten days ago. And
what 10 thus true OF me, verify believe is OF
many
From the present aspect of the case, and from
what hear said around me, infer
l. That resolution for notice will pass the
House-perhaps almost unanlmously-to terminate
the convention of JOINT occupation, at the end OF
two or three years An amendment to this effect
VIII be offered by some member from the South, In
a day or two.
i ri pass the House in this form, it will also
pass the Senate indeed, / am inclined to believe,
that IN this form, it would pass the Senate unani-
mously.
g. This being done, a gradual increase,of the
army and navy will be decided on--and the work
ct preparation for any consequence, 60 steadily
forward.
4 Lawful protection to our people in Oregon will
be promptly afforded Great Britain will renew
negotiations IN sixty days, and the whole question
be " amicably adjusted" according to the hopes
and wishes OF the President, long before the ad-
journment OF Congress.
Such are some OF the conclusions at which have
arrived, from actual contact with leading politicians
here, and from acknowledge Of the most unreserved
expression Of their opinions, both publicly and pri-
mony and Of the &C pary
-our rights and honor maintained-and all the
pers and misenes Of war avoided. BKNTnAM.
