Comm,,:ee in Virginia.

A meeting of citizens of Greenbriar county,
Va was held on the 9th of November and
VIGILANCE committee formed to expel from the
county family named Shifiet-the expulsion
to take place on the I'd of December. We know
something of the desperate character OF the
Shfflets, but still we regret TO see any tendency
towards mobocrsey on tie soil of Virginia. The
people of Greenbriar seem peculiarly inclined 10
that sort of thing. During the famous DR.
Thompson excitement, a similar meeting was
held in that county over which the Sheriff pre-"
sided It seems to Us that the law ought to be
quite sufficient to manage old Joe oh''he' anu

calling upon Judge Lynch and his unlicensed as

The Democratic Members of Congress from ' II

Mr.. BUCHANAN AvowING TIE OBJECTS OF HIS
ApM1N1sTRATIoN.-Mr Buchanan was visited a
few DAYS since at his home at Wheatand by the
students of Franklin and Marshall College. In
reply to an address made to him, Mr.. Buchanan,
after offering the young men some very good adj
vice, said:-
sHe had been elected to tie high and response
BILE office of President, and he thanked them most
sincerely for their congratulations; but whether
the event would prove to be a matter of congra-
tuotion time alone can determine. Without say
ing which party was right or which was wrong,
the fears of the ''father of his country" had at
last been realized, and now we behold section
nj party-one portion of our Union arrayed in
political hostility against the other. The object
of his administration could 6et0 destroy ory Sec
fional partv-North or Southland harmoni2e
all sections of tic Union undsi national and
conservative gooernment, as ii tcas fjty gears o.
40. Unless this be done the time may come
when these sectional animosities which now I'M
happilv exist may break up the tairest and most
perfect form of government the sun ever shone
mon. But he trusted that the same Power
which had watched over and preserved Us i'll the
past, will continue to smile upon Us and make
US prosperous united and happy people. In
conclusion he said, that if he could in any de-
gree be the hunored instrument of aaying this
sectional excitement and restoring the govern
ment to the principles and policy OF tie fathers,
he would then feel that he had not assumed the
ardnous duties of the office in VAIN
These are well spoken, patriotic words and
they fall appropriately from Mr.. Buchanan in
his present position. Let him carry out the pur-
nose avowed and he will secure the highest re-
ward which the coed wishes OF his country can
award him.

Telegraph from Richmond to staunton.

Telegraph from Richmond to St@unton'
r. @. Crowley Il Co, will visit Staunton IN a
short time for the purpose Of soliciting subserp-
tons 70 the stock of the Richmond, Charlottesville
and Staunton Telegraph Company. The success
of this enterprise is important to the merchants
and business men of Staunton, and their hearty
co-operation is essential to the success OF the
enterprise. The gentlemen who propose to build
the line are responsible men, and the telegraph
may be in operation in three months after the
stock is taken. 1t is estimated, upon what seems
to be reliable calculation, that the stock will pay
a dividend of Is per cent. If the people OF Staun-
Ton desire to have the advantages of telegraph
communication with the Metropolis, now is the
time to make the effort.
