GOVERNOR WISE AND THE SENATORIAL
QUESTION.

Governor Wise, of Virginia, has written a
long, declamatory letter, defining his position in
relation to Kansas, Mr.. Hunter, the question
of United States Senator in Virginia, the AID
ministraton and the Southern Extremists
he might have said all all that was desirable
in half a column instead of three solid columns
but his hux of words is fearful.
The Governor says that Black Republican
ism is the offspring Of English and Canadian
influence, and that had it succeeded in the last
Presidential contest, he would have taken
arms against it. at is well known" he says
" and proudly admitted, that had that flag been
hoisted over the Capitol of the United States
under the open proclaim atoms of the election, 1
for one, would have waited for no other overt
act of aggression or oppression; but was
therefore, the more anxious to secure a Demo
cratic triumph, to prevent revolution, and tc
preserve the Union. This separated me from
extremists South.

subjected to the test. God helping US, we vii
give him an opportunity for playing the rebe
in 1860.
AS to MIR. Hunter, he makes no issue with
him, nor will he permit his name to be used fol
the Senate in opposition to him. Gov. Walker
be is inclined to trust-some things in his
speeches need Interpretation, bui he is against
sny rash judgment. As to the Constitution OF
Kansas, it ought to be submitted first to the
People; bat should it be sent first to Congress,
and be Republican in form, let it be adopted.
A much better policy, however, would be, to
submit the Constitution first of ali to vote Of
the People. As to the Administration, it has
his warm and strenuous support-he sees moth.
ing in its course so fer to blame.
The letter Is designed to hormonize the Viz
GINA Democracy, and may be considered an in
iimation that the Governor and his friends are
not yet prepared to carry their support of Gov.
