TIE Mmphis Aralarehs (Tenn.) would seem to
be responsible for the following statement, which
Ne find current in Western Journals:
"THE NEW.YoKg TRiBU.g declares that Judge
Douglas and the nfau .Jonn W. Forney have
written to Mr. Greeley, inploring him to modify his
creed
No letter, go far az we remember, ever passed be-

none within the last ten years. Such inventions

Of the assertion that The NEWBORN TRIBUNE

the other case, We may condemn and repreheod
the SIGHT, in our editorial columns, but We shall not
undertake to suppress the material facts.
We do not argue this matter. We have con
sdered it, decided upon 1t, and taken position.
Those who want an expurgated chronicle Of what
is going forward-an account Of whatever occurs
that, according to human judgment, ought to have
occurred, with whatever we may think ought not
to have occurred carefully suppressed, msy doubt
less find journals to suit them; but THE TRIBUNE
never will. This paper is conducted on the prin-
cipe that the world as it is, with its sins AMI sor
rows, its frailties sad aspirations, is more in
structiye and profitable theme of human contempls-
ton than any revised and corrected world that an
editor could devise, aud that all efforts to Improve
1t should be based on knowledge Of what 1t is,
precedent to consideration Of ~hat it should be.
If the theory of suppression and e1purgstion be
the true one, il would, carried to its legitimate
conclusions, give us. not carefully pruned and
weeded Journals but no Journals at all In truth,
the advocates of the theory of expurgation ought
to patronize, not tie more prudish and select news
papers, but none at alas most of them do.

TIE State Of Yirginis is now experiencing an
unusual political excitement. The Opposition
having been beaten into quietude, the Democracy
are having a dome.tc contest OF unwonted bitter
ness. Their Nominating Contention Will assemble
at Petersburg on tie I'd prox, to select candidates
for Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Attorney
General. 10 be chosen next April for the four years
ensuing. The Virginia Democracy--or rather,
their eaders-have been for come years divided into
two bitterly hostile factions, one Of them headed
Gov. Wire and the other By United States Senstor
Hunter-both ex-Whgs, BY the way-snd the
feud has grown apace since the decay and virtual
dissolution of the American party left the Dem
ocrstic without formidable adversary. Gov.
Wises faction has been strongest but was unable TO
give him Mr.. Hunters seat two years ago; and
the back out of SIR. Buchanan's Administration
from the support Of Gov Walkers Kansas pohcy
has since thrown Gov Wise Into clear minority.
At this uncture, the Hunter faction have rallied
around John Letcher (Member Of the House from
the Shenandoah District since the death OF Gov.
Mcdowell IN lSi9), and are fully bent on making
him Governor, in which resolve we think they
will succeed. Mr. Letcher is = bitter par
tisan. with the warmest Virginia no
tions respecting tho scope anf functions OF
Government, bnt with some Wholesome instincts
and tendencies inclining toward Economy and Re-
trenchmeIt. lie has been intensely PrO-Slavery In
Congress; yet it seems that he signed, in lo47,
rcquisition to the Rev. Mr. Rufner, urging hun to
give for publication tho manuscript of a recent
Sermon preached in Lexington, Va. (where Mr..
Letcher resides) which sermon Vie signers of the
requsition prOfcssed heartily to approve, though
its burden was an argument for the abolition of
Slavery, at least in Hestern yireinia. 1t is prob
able that the Letcher meu have been rather more
annoyed than Injured by the attempts to prove.
from this reqsisi,iop, that Mr. Letcher is not
sound On the goose" and that hi, nomination
would expose Virginia to the Vaccinations Of Abo-
liti0n
The Wise party generally support judge John
Brockenbrough, also of Lexington. for Governor;
but the Hon. Charles J. Faulkner, an N. c. and
another eminent eX.Whig, has also some delegates
We presume, however, that Mr. Letcher will be
nominated, probably on the 6rst ballot.

BE- worse than misspent Buildings are put up
where they are not needed, and where, in addition
to the loss Of their cost, they cause heavy addi'
tional waste every year. I. is bad enough to
throw away forty or fifty thousand dollars on use'
lets building but it is worse to throw away the ten
or fifteen thousand dollars year which the support
of the useless school demands.
The footing Of the estimates is sl,2i6, 600. The
expenditures for I-59 have exceeded the estimates
by about 1926, 900. Should there be no increase
in the excess for 1859 over that Of 1858. which is
highly improbable, the total expenditures of the
next Board Of Education will amount to ST.
