Senatorial Election.


On Yesterday, Notwithstanding the gloomy snow storm
hch prevailed of doors, both houses of the general
assembly exhibited quite lively scene AT IL o'clock
the execution of the Joint order for the election OF
Tor to supply the place of the amented Pennybacker
begun We wish we could say that it was completed.
After very exciting debates in both houses and some
scenes which regret not omitted, the drama
brought to n conclusion at about o'clock p. m and the
result was election.
George w. Summers, OF Kanawha, voted for as
the prominent favorte of the wing party whenever the
wings did not choose between the democrats who were
in nomination. The democratic members had not enter
ed into any consultation previous to the day of the eec
ton and therefore the three gentlemen in nomination
were presented by their personal friends They all
known the State and do not hesitate to say, that
Virginia would be well represented in the Senate by
either They have all been, at different periods of their
lives prominent members Of the lower house of Congress
one of them has been Speaker and chairman of the most
important and responsible committee in that body, and
another has filed the gubenatoral chair OF State
We suboin table showing the relative vote upon the
five ballots which were taken II will be that in
the present state of the voting the wings generally
choosing between Messrs. Mcdowell and Mason--only
one wing delegate having voted for Mr. Jones. 1t is,
however due to truth to say that this circumstance does
not arise from the fact that Mr. Jones is obnoxious
to them than any else, but rather from the detem
nation entertained by of them TO select senator
from the western part of the State.

Il good days mork!
Since the preceding article was put in type along with
the extracts which accompany it, showing the sentiments
of the of the people through several democratic
papers at distance from the of government,
rejoice to have witnessed the manly and patriotic pro-
ceedngs of the House OF Representatives in this days
port 1t is the best days work which has been done
during the present session We congratulate the people
upon The passage of The loan bill at one heat The bl
was taken into Committee of the Whole this day. and
after violent and bitter speech from Mr. Crozier OF Ten
nessee the bill received few amendments from the
committee and then reported to the House. 1t pass
ed the House, the strength of the previous question
and the nail clinched by moving reconsideration
OF the bill, and rejecting that motion Mr.. Winthrop TIL
ed in vain the Wilmot proviso He wished to incorpo-
rate with this important supply bill restriction on the
extension Of slavery any territory that may be ac-
CURED by the war; The chairman (Mr. Tibbats) ruled
out the proposed amendment in which decision he
supported by the committee.
The whole distinguished by great energy
of action and we sincerely congratulate the country
punge therefore, portions OF the article which we
have addressed to readers, upon the datoy course
of Congress- so far as the House of Representatives
is concerned-if it in our power. We would much
rather award commentator than censure We hail this
decided movement therefore, the harbnger OF future
active spirit in the House. II is the bold and patriotic act
of the enlightened representatives of free people The
act is still more welcome because the bill carried by
the overwhelming vote of l66 TO %.
We hope to see sympathetic movement in the Senate
of the United States And thus the Secretary of the
Treasury will be enabled to accelerate the accomplishment
of loan which will be wanted to furnish money ora Wig
orous prosecution of the war
But we want men, too, as well money. 1t is sub
ect of regret that the bill for raising ten regiments still
fingers in the Senate If that had been passed
month ago. the ten regiments would nearly all have been
raised by this tme and large portion OF them forwarded
to the theatre of operations We losing of the
precious period for preparation We ought to be ready
to employ in the interval which eapses between
the time when the northers cease, and before the
vomito begins and when we may strike some decisive
blows at the enemy We trust TO the energy OF this days
movements in the House for anmatng and electryng the
other branch of the Legislature. We should, with all
possible despatch, make all efficient arrangements that
may, with energy and action, prosecute honorable
war, for the purpose of securing prompt and honorable
peace.
