ANOTHER BANK.-We understand that
a new Bank under the Free Banking Law
is about to be organized at Franklin, in this
county, with a capital of $loe,oo0. These
Bankers are just in time 10 save their ba-
con. The new constitution requires all
acts comforting bankig powers and privi-
leges to be submitted to the people for their
approval or rejection. This is test to
which these paper money mongers are IN nc
wise anxious to submit their fate, notwith-
standing they claim that,in organizing these
institutions, they are acting exclusively 70,
the benefit of the ssoear people," Times rT
now The new constitution takes effect to-
day, and the reign of monopoly and privi'
legged orders will begin to decline and the
people will assert their supremacy.
e Some of the whig papers are trying
to make capital for Vinton from the fac'
that he, in connection with Winthrop, Sew.
ard and other northern wings, is denounc.
ed by Hon. Robert Toombs, an ardent
Southern wbig. We well remember when
this same Toombs, in ls4S, denounced the
doctrine of Gen. Cass' Nicholson letter, and
of the Democratic National Convention
the doctrine of non-intervention-as being
more dangerous to the rigbs and interests Of
the South than the Wilmot Proviso. The
wings did not then regard bis testimony as
of much account, although they regarded
the Provi as the main and all-importan
question in that contest. The wings o.
Ohio are in very close quarters, indeed
when they are compelled to use such evi
dence to prove the .anti-slavery character oI
their leader.

The virginia Elsction

The victory achieved by the democratic party OF Viz
GINA on the 9Th of the month is one OF the most i'm
poran in the recent history OF that State In pas,
times Virginia has been the theatre OF many hard
test On many occasions the vote has been close,
although the democracy had the advantage, derived from
previous victories But the recent abrogaton OF the
property qualification for voters established new order
of things, and it impossible 10 estimate with acou-
racy the eec, which the change IN the right OF suffrage
would exert the strength OF parties The democrats
conended that !, would increase the democratic strength,
and the wing presses published estimates TO show
that il would alter the political complexion OF the State
Had the wing candidate been elected the result would
not have been attributed to any temporary cause and the
democrats would have lost all the advantages derived
from their victories during the last half century. The
fruits OF long and unequaed fidelity would have been
ruined in a single day Had considerable majority been
obtained, the wings would have maintained not without,
reason tina, the change the organic law had placed the
.cepe in their hands the prestige Of former democratic
victories would have been buried with the old order OF
things. and the federalis,s would have entered on the
new order with all the advantages which flow from
cess The wings appreciated the condition OF affairs, and
were fully alive to the importance of the first election
with universal suffrage They put forth every exer'ion
oil whcD mcy were capapie 'hsy oui'eo AZ oe-e"s'op
and with unanmi,y nominated candidate for governor
The nomination OF Mr. Summers by the Charlottesville
convention without question the most acceptable one
to the wing party which could have been made. The
wing press welcomed il with accamaiops, and sustained
it with zeal No effort left unired and every de-
vice OF party warfare esored TO in order to elect the
wing candidate. The democratic candidate was rid-
cued his motives malgned, and his course IN pub
lie life was misrepresented Strenuous exertions we're
made to conceal the old issues and ois ones on the
people Blu, all the efforts OF the enemy have failed,
The returns already received show that the extension Of
the right Of suffrage has added vastly to the democratic
strength in Virginia. and that the democratic party Of that
State ha. gained signal victory on the very threshold
of the new order Of things which was to begin with the
establishment Of wing ascendency, and witness long
train Of democratic defeats.
