Secession in Brook and Hancock.

Considerable notice has been taken in the press
of the countr: of the proposed annexation of tn.
Pan Handle to Pennsylvania, and it seems to be
understood by the press that the proposed step is
the united and unanimous move of the citizens of
Brooke and Hancock. The Marshal Advocate nuts
in its protest aginst such move for Marshall, and
we presume that no one who knows the position
of Ohio county. will presume that it is our wish to
be severed from Virginia. But we may be allow ed
further TO say that we do not believe such to be
the wish of one-thrd of the people of Brooke and
Hancock. The Herald well knows that the pro-
ceedngs of the Wellsburg night meetings, (the
only place believe where any slch meet
ing has been held } were strenuously opposed even
there but the editor of the Herald being one of The
alternatives, but one side appears in his editorial
views of the matter. We know we'll the citizens
of Brooke and Hancock and we believe that with
the exception of some few of the immediate friends
of the defeated bill, the idea of separation from
Virginia is not seriously entertained for moment,
and it is due 10 the great body of the citizens of
those counties, who have taken no part and given
themselves no concern about the matter, to state
that from our knowledge of those citizens, injustice
is done them in the reports which are going the
rounds CT the press.
