The SENATORIAL QUARREL IN VIRGINIA
For some time past, the Virginia journals have
been indulging in some pretty plain language
respecting the election of new Senator. Gov.
Wise and Mr.. Hunter were pitted against each
other for the Senatorship, and the quarrel
grew so decided that the opposition papers, like
the Richmond Wing, were making capital out
of it. The disturbance has come to an end, as
we learn from the following paragraph in the
Richmond South
"Our neighbor is positive that Gov. Wise is
not only candidate for the Senate, but is a
most resolute and formidable candidate to boot

The majority for Chase in Ohio will be,
on official count, nearly or quite 1000. 1t
Is conceded on all hanIs TO be at least about
1000. With this result, there is cause for
congratulation. The case could not he nut.
In Ohio, more TO our disadvantage than it
was put in the late campaign. Chase has
been, from the frst, an emphatic opponent
Of Know Nothingism. The members Of that
party regard him with the most malignant
hatred, and have made common cause with
the Pro Slavery Democracy in the effort to
defeat him. But he has triumphed over all
opposition. The party at his back is. "pure
aud simple" Republican party, and his
election establishes the fact that the Repub-
bean clement in the Buckeye State. aside
Tram all personal popularity, all extraneous
influences and Incidental advantages, is the
paramount aud trinmphan; sentiment. An
other man than Chase might have command

ted that until within the last six month, she
had been slave in New Orleans. bu. tina,
her master had finally liberated her, and sent
Der TO free State TO live. The girl was AL
most white, scarce tincture of African
blood could be discovered: hair straight and
glossy, and features regular; in fact her
complexion Wa. much lighter than many OF
tho,e who surrounded her in court, and who
would have been indignant enough to have
been suspected Of African descent ia the re-
hottest degree. Born and bred amongst ne
groes, who were alone her only associates in
slavery, on reaching this city she naturally
sought acquuntances amongst the same
class. Unfortunately she contracted mar
riage with brutal negro, ABOUT two months
ago. who has treated her ike ANYTHING else
but o wife--or as she sand in court, siuch
worse than she was treated when siaye.c
She therefore came into court Yesterday
morning, and made complaint in order to Sc
cure, ii possible, separation. But rs the
! Judge had no authority, OF course, to dis
pose OF her husband, except temporarily, for
