Virginia,

True to the faith of Madison and jefferson, has
just elected, by an overwhelming majority to the
offices of Governor and Lt.-Govemor, Hon. Jo-
sEPH JOHNSON and Hon. SHELTON F. LEAKE. As
an evidence of the purity of the principles they
advocated, we quote from speech made by Mr..
Leake in Richmond, short time before the cleo
ton. 1t is on the subject of Secession and State
Rights. Speaking of the Whig candidate he
said -
He is the head of that party who deny, with
out limitation, the State Right of Secession. He
is the head of that party who advocate the prac-
teal Consolidation of this Republic, and who pro-
claim the Sovereignty of Virginia to be empty
formula. -
He went on as follows:
g This party ask US where we find in the Con-
stitution doctrine of Secession We have
fallen evil times, indeed, when we are called
upon to look into the Federal Constitution for the
titles of State Sovereignty! As well might this
globe of dirt-this dim speck of earth in the mag
nifcent and ilimitable Universe of golden fire,
say to the Omnipotent God who created and sus-
tanned it When did 9ive the right Of in,mor-
tolity by aCAot compact wiM me dost hou create
new uorIds and ertinguiSh old stars q? Virginia
answers Federalism as the Sun of life might an
swer that distracted planet-BEFoRE THOU WAIST,
WAS Looking for State Rights IN the Constl-
tuition Talking about compacts ? Why, the
Federal Government is the creature of the States
the Federal constitution is the work Of their hands!
The denial of these propositions is simple and un-
qualified consolidation. 1t is the substitution Of
an Empire for Confederacy.: What are the con-
sequences of that substitution If, in the new
formed Empire, Congress should pass the law for
abolishing negro slavery-what help remains to
the State !? Our opponents say the remedy is
the Right of Revolution-and not the 'absurdity
of Secession. But they then utter an absurdity
in terms, for if the right of secession does not ex-
ist, as necessary consequence the further right
of revolution has no existence either. If the
lesser right is an absurdity of course the greater
right which contains it and all other forms of re-
sistance, must be an absurdity also. If there is
no right to secede there can be no right to resist
at all for that is the most formal, legal and mod
crate form in which resistance can be attempted
to deny that is the denial of ALL The annihila
tion of the premise, cuts off the conclusion. -
Southern standard. [volume] (Columbus, Miss.) 1851-1856, 1852-01-10

We extract from the message of Louis Napole-
on all that is said in relation to the aid rendered to
the Spanish Government by the President of the
French Republic:
1--WE have embraced with alacrity the occasion
of giving to Spain proof of the sincerity of our
relations in associating ourselves with England to
offer to the Madrid Cabinet the cooperation of
our naval forces in order to repulse the audacious
attempt against the Island of Cuba. Besides.
our Minister at Washington has been charged to
sustain, friendly way, the claims of the Court of
Madrid, claims whose justice have been Loyalty
recognized by the Federal Government. -
