ELECTION OF GOVERNOR.

Col. Floyd is a gentleman Of fine talents, OF
unbem>hed private character and is Jealous
Democrat. We only regret that his friends re
fused TO go into and abide the decision Of a eau
Gus thereby dsregarding and defeating an i'm
poTtant and necessary usage OF The Democratic
party, and throwing the power OF deciding the
election into he hands II our opponents. We
shall not stop TO denUunce this projecting. For
tunarely, IN This instance, il has not operated 10
The injury oL our party. But We cannot pass bS
his or any other deviation from III established
and necessary customs Of The party, without ey-
pressing our regret and disapprobalon. Thr
Wings appear pleased al the result, bu' il we are
not very much mistaken in The Democracy Of
Col Floyd, they will not derive any more "aid
and comfort" from his election, than they have
done from the election winter before last Of Jas
NJ. Mason, as United States Senator II will be
seen lha, our tellow-yown>man, Judge William
Daniel. Jr, was one Of the candidates voted or
IN the two first balos. The name Of Judge
Daniel was used by his friends without his know.
ledge or consent, he being on visi, to this place
al the time Of the election, nor would he nave
served. as we have had reason 10 know, u ne had
been elected. The vote received by him there
FORE though very flaliering, is no evidence oil ms
strength had he been formally candidate, and
his claims duly considered. As il is, il IS com.
pliment no doubt highly gratifying 10 Inc JuGse
and his friends.
The Wheeling Argus says:
at will be seen that our friend and fellow
citizen, Colonel George w. Thompson, was run
BY goodly portion Of our representatives, for
the high and responsible post of Governor Of
Virginia 1t was unsolicited on his part, and
altogether unexpected But the compliment
paid him by re pec,able portion OF The mem
bers, is none the less honorable on that account.
1t is a compliment paid TO North Western Vir-
ginia, greater than any within our recollection
Of the affairs Of this State"
