A ISLANDER REFUTED.

One of the most unscrupulous of the charges against
Nh. Summers is thus stated and satisfactorily repeI-
ed by the Lynchburg Virginian
MR. SUMMERS WADING THROUH A SEA OF
BLOOD!
In 1882, Mr.. S. enthusiastic IN the cause OF
the ''trodden down. negro, that he was willing to

mers) declare ''THAT lie WOULD GLORY IN COMING
DOWN TO LEAD FORTH THE OPPRESSED (NEGRoEs) FROM
THE LAND OF BONDAGE, EVEN THROUGH The
WAVES OF THE RED SEA-"
This, gentle reader, is the language of the boosted
''nqfige born Wing candidate for GOVERNOR LyAch-
burg Republican.
When MI Summers was in Lynchburg we called his
attention to the foregoing mOrceGu, and ne requested

life entertained or uttered sentiment, which authors

MR.. SUMMERS IN PETERSBURG AND
FREDERICKSBURG.

We receive the most gratifying accounts of
Mr.. Summers efforts in Petersburg and Freda
ercksburg. At both places, he is said to have
exceled himself, and to have conquered the admis
ration of his opponents. Would that he had a
months more time to canvass the State. In the
limited time that remains before the election, it is
impossible for him to meet one tenth of the calls
made upon him. He deems it important to visit
the Valley without delay; and, for this reason, felt
himself constrained to decline going farther East
han Richmond and Petersburg. We wish much
that he could have spoken in Norfolk and Ports

Observation-Disclosures.

We cordially subscribe to every word of the follow
iug appeal by the Alexandra Gszoc 10 the Wings Of
the State.
We have again and again exhored our Wing friends
throughout The Commonwealth, to effect thoi ough
organisation OF the party previous TO the election next
month, and 10 set about the work at once and IN ear
nes. Indeed there is no time tobe lost We are
confident that the opposite party are not slow or idle
in reference to this subject, and that they using
diligence in marshalling their forces.
The press and public speakers do their duty, and pub
fish and set before the people, all the facts that be
collected, and all The information that be gathered,
IN reference to the merits OF the questions at issue and
the claims OF the candidates nominated but this Will
not alone answer. There should be General Commit
tees and Precinct Committees in every county, and
pains should be taken induce the voters TO give their
attention to the subject and enlist them warmly and
heartily in the cause.
A full Wing vote in the East is all important at the
ensuing election. We hope and believe there are
many Democrats. both in the East and the West, who
dscaIdlng party pre1diceS, will vote for Summers,
Watts, and Baxter Let every Wing, then, unite 10
earnest ende&vor to organize his party that its
entire and undivided strength shall be shown in Deem
Der next.
Above all, let friends attend to the ne,0 pole.
The Democrats have heretofore made the largest
draughts upon the non.voters, by means of pur"
chasing qualifications, paying taxes, &C. The
statistics prove that in strong Democratic sections
of the State, the proportion which the old vote
bears to the whole white population, is much
larger than in the Wing sections. The necessary
inference is that the large proportion Of the new
voters are Wings. This should encourage oul
Vigilance Committees to work with confidence
and untring industry. We verify believe, from
all the evidence that has reached us, that the
Wing ticket will be elected, if the Eastern
Wings will only do their duty. Mr.. Summers
presence at a few points in the East, and his man
Iy vindicaton of himself against the unfoundet
| aspersions of the Democratic press, have served
to inspire the Wings with new confidence. AL
that is now necessary is that our friends in al
the counties should be active and vigiant Els
pecially, we repeat, let them employ all honora.
BILE means to induce the new voters to give their
first votes on the right side.

On the question OF the propriey of our governments
interfering in the affairs OF European nations, the
Alexandria Gazette makes the following just re.
marks:
The new doctrine soughtto be incorporated into the
Democratic creed, by many politicians at the NORTH

of the government as recommended by Washington
and practiced by Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and
Jackson, and indeed, by all the Presidents, and which
would throw into the melee OF European wars
and disturbances, will not, venture to predict be
received or adopted by the Democratic party in
various sections. OF the Union, and especially in
the South. 1t is dangerous departure from the
course marked.ou in the old Republican chart
We give to the oppressed nations of Europe our
sympathy and show them by action that the cause
Of liberty is dear US; but undertake to be
propagandisls, embark in every contest which
may be excited by the tyranny of rulers or the impa-
tence aud sufferings of the ruled in countries with
whose domestic concerns have right to interfere.
We have quite enough do to attend to our own
business and manage our own concerns. The sober
good sense of the people, we are confident, will keep
the ship of the right tack in this respect at
least.

COL. JOHNSON ON THE IRISH BILL.

We have cited from the Congressional Globe
Col. Johnson's vote, on the 1st OF March, 1847
to lay on the table the Senate bill "to provide
some relief (S5oo,OOo) for the suffering people OF
Ireland" And we stated that the Globe did not
give the yeas and nays on the motion offered by
Mr.. Winthrop, on the Sd of March, to suspend the
rules to enable him to offer resolution instruct
ing the Committee on Ways and Means to report
the bill to the House. We have now before us
the Journal of the House, and, on page 1876, we
find the vote on Mr. Winthrop's motion recorded.
JOSEPH JOHNSON AND SHELTON F. LEAKE VOTED
AGAINST THE MOTION; and thus the bill was final
ly defeated. The Committee of Ways and Means
the House refused to instruct them to report it,

GUARANTEES TO SLAVE PROPERTY

GUARAN HE'S IL SLAV u PROP GR Y.
We learn that Mr.. Summers is assaulted in some
parts of the West, because, in the State Conven-
ton, he took ground for exemptng negroes under
twelve years of age from taxation. This was
question of much interest in the body, and many
of the Western members were warmly opposed
to the exemption. We find u pom looking to the
Journal of the Convention that after the clause
had undergone various notifications in commit
tee of the Whole and in Convention, it was finally
put to the vote in the following shape:
mo slave shall be taxed who has not attained the
age of twelve years"
Mr. Summers is recorded as voting in the af.
firmative.
Previously, on the I'd of July, he had himself
offered in committee of the Whole, the following
proposition:
s'Taxation shall be equal and uniform throughout
the Commonwealth and all property shall be taxed in
proportion its value, to be asceraned in such mode
as shall be prescribed by law. Slaves shall not be
taxed at higher rate nd UatOrem than lands but
saveS 1de IL gears fage shall not be subje to tag
