General Walker was reported to be all

cause of his defeat is attributed to total
negligence on his part. The remnant OF
his party had arrived at Rivas,, and the
men cursed their coWardly Colonel
loudly. Capt. Thorpe faced him with a
pistol on the field, and threatened to. shoot
him as a coward. All was useless, how
ever, as his cowardice had created a pan.

B. All theIn,teIlig.e.in .. q ,,

We frequently see the assertion made
by the most bold and out, spoken of our
opponents, that that they embrace all the
intelligence and decency in the country,
while the more discreet modestly disclaim
the. pretension.. The following language
of writer in the Richmond Wing. which
is said to be Hon. A. H. H. Stewart. is a
specimen Of this arrogant assumption
q The Democracy make VERY GOOD
SOLDIERS but VERY BAD OFFICERS
"They are like the Turks in this re.
spect. They fight well IN the ranks, when
under the command Of French or AUSTRIAN
officers !
No wonder Wings like to go over to
the Democracy No wonder Mr.. Wise
thinks that those who voted for him. can
not q be reclaimed" when the Democracy
virtually admit III ir o,On incompstency for
responsible positions. by selecting Wigs
TO rule over them! z"
We ask our Democratic friends to re.
member this language. while they are
amiably solicited for their votes, and told
that party should have nothing 10 do with
the election Of county officers. "The
Democracy make very good soldiers. but
very 6ad offers" do they and SO they
must be Offered by their opponents, under
the no.party discipline +? "They are like
the Zurh,s.'' says this writer, and must
have French or Austrian"-th is
Wing or RaoeO> Nothing officers to com
naand them. Really this is one of the
most presumptuous piece of arrogance we
have seen lately. We admonish The De,
mocracy every where, no, to virtually
admit Meir oVn incompetency for response
bic positions. By selecting Wigs (or Know-
NotAings) to ru1e ouer them ?" but to vote
for Democrats for all offices. and give the
lie to this foul SANDER upon them.

We cali attention 70 the announcement
under our editorial head to-day. Of a.
Democratic Mass Meeting. to be held in
this place. on the first day of our May
Court, 10 select Democratic candidate
for Clerk of the Circuit Court. There
being more than one Democratic candis
date in the field, il is necessary that some
steps be taken to secure united action
of the party in-regard to this Office. as
abe others to beifllsds at our approaching
spring election. Ihescrayena cry ofano.
partyism is nowsraised byiourtopponents,
particularly in regard to this Office, for
getting that less thatSa year; ago, when
they imagined themselves able to control
the elections, they, boldly; declared that
none but members of the American par.
~ shoaldlBe elected to.any office t56qtepsri y
They threatened @ cut the throats Of ey-
cry Democrat. SO far as, election to office
was concerned; and ought not now to
think hard five disregard theirAno-party
cry and vote for Democrats throughout.
There are now Democrats before the
people for this Office. as well qualified as
any others in it; and therelis. therefore,
no necessity for our friends abandoning
their party in pursuit Of proper person
for whom to vote for this Office. We hope
to see aslarge meeting here on next Mon
day week, that full and fair preference
may be expressed between the different
Democratic aspirants. ~ :

B1EsN1AI SESSIONS OF THE LEGISLATURE.
The Richmond Enquirer contains an
article in opposition to biennial sessions
ofthe Legislature. The public mind is
rapidly becoming convinced that biennial
sessions Of our State Legislature will no,
do. We have always been of the opinion
that in State as large as Virginia. with
the amount Of business necessary to faith.
fully guord her interests. and especially
during the progress ofhe gigantic inter
nal improvement system. that annual ses-
slams are absolutely necessary. Yet. un-
less Virginia stocks should rise to par du-
ring the coming summer and fall, it may
not be of much use to call an extra ses-
sion next winter.

Hon. James Buchanan arrived at New
Y ork in the Arago, on the 23d ult. He
was enthusiastically received by some 8.
900 persons, who had assembled on the
pier and vicinity, and made the welkin
ring with cheer after cheer. He was for
mally received by committee from the
city council, who with their guest. enter
ed carriages that had been provided for
them, and amidst the most enthusiastic
cheering Of the crowd, drove up Beech
street, Laight and Canal streets to Broad
way, and thence to the Everett House,
where an elegant suit of apartments had
been prepared for him. .E...... 49,.
Quite an assemblage had gathered in
front of the Hotel awaiting MIR. Buchan
mans arrival, and he was loudly cheered
upon alighting from his carriage. He
was Immediately escorted to his parlor,
where he was waited upon by His Honor
the Mayor, and several other distinguish
ed citizens. The Post says:
Mr.. Buchanan is looking .remarka.
bly, well, and seems really happy to see
home and friends again. He is, perhaps,
stouter than when he left us, nearly three
years ago. and there is rudy hue OF
health upon his cheeks, and q contented
look from his eyes, which indicate that
he is physically and mentally at ease
The same genial kindness and 6onAomneie
which formerly marked his manner are
apparent, and his personal friends. who
are host, will find him changed for the
better in these respects by his residence
abroad.'' ..a - ..-...0 --.

clock, Mr.. Buchanan received his New
York friends at the City Hall during the
afternoon, he dined with Mayor Wood

front OF the Everett House. sraaitg.
He declined public dinner, desiring
to reach home as soon as possible.
The city councils Of Philadelphia re.
fused him the use of Independence Hall, in
which to receive the congratulations Of
his friends. This disrespect TO the dis
tinguished Pennsylvania causes much
angry feeling among all classes of citi-
ZenS. .a. .a- -u
While on his way to Philadelphia, on
the 25th ult., Mr.. Buchanan was met at
Trenton by committee of his friends,
and on his arrival at Walnut street wharf

ed to the city by a committee of citizens
headed BY Hon. Josiah Randall, after

chants Exchange, the interior of which

haPpiest style, ,eliciting the applause of
his hearers. After his reception at the
