The Columbus (Ohio) Journal does gross injustice to
Virginia in holding her responsible for the sccentrctes
and vagares Of Judge Beverly Tucker For one, we pro-
test against the justice taste Of the cacaure which
he has drawn Of the people Of Ohio, in his speech in the
Nashville Convention. Judge T. is man OF talent,
but eccentric and extravagant in his opinions, and his
judgment expresses the sentiments commands the
fdence OF very few persons No Vgnian whom we have
met with approves his speech and there is not who is
not Disguised with his description Of Ohio He sinks so
low in the bahos Of his oraory TO say, "The man OF
Ohio has nothing below him but the hog. We cannot
make the hog gentleman, sir and need not say how
the dead weight Of the hog must operate TO drag down
his companion to his level" This is Of course supremey
ridiculous and disgusting, and goes to impeach the
whole judgment Of any man who will condescend to use
such language Of whole population. evenof one citizen
oft No one can have the pleasure Of acquaintance
with her present delegation in the House Of Representa-
lives without feeling indignant at the of the
caricaiure
The Columbus journal, therefore, need not cudgel its
brains for some solution of the antpathy Of Virginia
10 Ohio The feeling does exist II is utterly puerle
to say that she disikes her sister, because "sxty
years ago Virginia was the first State in the Union, and
Ohio was a wilderness and now Ohio has become a
great State, and Virginia has become the old
dominion" We venture to say that the Old Dominion has
such feelings and what is more, that the prosperity
she is enjoying, and the magnificent improvements
she is actively pursuing, sufficient to redeem her
from such a rebuke.
