VIRGINIA onrention Electton.-Our re-
turns are still meager and partial, as the
election did not close till Saturday night,
but they leave no room for doubt that the
friends Of a Radically Reformed COnstitu-
ton have swept the State. Old party lines
were generally disregarded, as was right,
and nobody knows nor cares how many OF
the Delegates are called Wing or call them
selves Democrats. Enough that Virginia
awakes from her slumber of half a century,
resolved to have truly Republican Consti-
tuition. She thinks che has talked Democ-
racy long enough to begin to act it. Not a
bad idea.

Tue TARIFF IN THE HOUSE. The friends
OF the Protection Of Home Industry were on
Saturday denied the privilege OF moving
an amendment to the General Appropria-
ton Bill changing the Rates of Duty levied
by the present Tariff from Ad Valorem to
Specific of he amount of these rates at the
time (ls46) this Tariff was enacted. The
vote by which this proposition was ruled
out was (by tellers) 81 to 1.-THE Toombs
and Stevens gentry Of course voting with
the Opposition. We trust way will yet
be found to bring this moderate and benef'
cent proposition before the House so as to
give us the Yeas and Nays upon it, that the
friends of a diversified and allprosperous
Home Industry may know who are for and
whe.are against them. Gentlemen opposite !
you cannot be SO cowardly as to refuse us
the Yeas and Nays!
