The Contest I'm Virginia.

The election in Virginia will he held on
Thursday next, and the country generally
looks with some interest to the result The
democratic press IN this State are preparing
for an easy fall, if there should be fall.
Several days ago we observed an article in
the Memphis AUalanche, claiming majority
in that state of only about 10000 and saying
that it had not much expectation of increas-
ingu that number. The Union and american, in
alluson to the approaching election, states
the democratic majority in 1855, when WISE
was elected Governor, 10. $50, and add: 1--WE
shall be disappointed if the majority for
LETCHER in this election falls below these
figures; and it is too much, perhaps, to ex-
pect it to be materially increased" Con-
sidering that at the next general election
after that in 1855. BUCHANAN's majority over
FILLMORE ran up to 20 1896, the expectations
of our Tennessee contemporaries, are indeed
moderate. Why should falling off 10000
be conceded? If that party is united and
strong, as some of its friends profess to
believe, why should it not be sustained by
something like the vote by which it was
placed in power? They are evidently pre-
pairing a safe spot to fall upon.
For our part, we hardly know what to cal
culate upon from Virginia. We have only a
superficial knowledge of the condition of
public sentiment there; but if the democracy
can sustain Mr.. LETCHER with such a record
as his career presents, we shall certainly be
led still further to distrust the sincerity OF
the protested exclusive championship of the
democracy, Of the southern institution. Some
of our enthusiastic friends are looking for
victory for GOGGIN. We are not so sanguine.
The cold Dominion" has never faltered since
the days of JACKSON; and though she has
abundant cause now to change her course, we
cannot look with any sort of confidence to
such result. We shall see and know how
ever, in few days.

didates in the first are waging a powerful
sight They are very Greeks, both of them;
but NELSON is the Spartan, and thunders at
the towers of the Athenians with terrible and
alarming effect. The enemy is bewildered,
and the latest news is that Gov. JOHNSON has
been dragooned into the service of his ancient
foe, and takes the field for HAYNES. This is
by all odds the most thrilling contest that
has occurred in the State for Congress in
many years.
In the second District MAYNARD's election
is considered certain. In the third, BRABsoN
is making most chivalrous fight with Hon.
SAM. "A. SMITH. Our friends are enthusiastic
in their hopes of his success. In the fourth,
the gallant and indefatigable STOKES is run
ming his competitor to the grth, and we look
to the redemption Of that District with conf
dence. In the fifth, HATToN will maintain the
opposition ascendency. OF the eighth it is
hardly necessary to speak. Gen. QUARLEs
will fully sustain the majority of Gen. ZoLLI-
GOLFER, though the most strenuous exertions
are making to compass his defeat. The ninth
and tenth, with ETHERIDGE and SNEED, we
regard as secure with full vote, which we
have every assurance will be polled.
We feel warranted in assuring our friends
that the prospect has not been better for the
overthrow of Democracy in Tennessee. We
tell them at the same time, that to secure the
signal triumph which is within our reach. will
require the united efforts of all the opponents
of our adversaries. We must march in solid
and unbroken columns, and leave none be-
hind. Let US, therefore, have ga long pull, a
strong pull, and pull altogether"

GENERAL WHEAT.- This gentleman, well
known as an officer from this city in the Mex
lean War, anAalso from the prominent posi-
ton occupied BY him in the Walker movement
in Nicaragua, came passenger from New Or
leans yesterday, by the lngomar, en- route
for Washington, as bearer OF dispatches to
our Governrument frum Minister McLane,
now at the City Of Mexico. The General at
present holds Office as Brigader General in
the liberal army of Mexico. He left Vera
Cruz about ten days since. and desiring TO
reach Washington at AS early day as posi-.
BILE, took last evenings train for that city.
Gen. Wheat is confident of the success of the
liberal party in Mexico. The Juarez Gov
eminent is already recognized by twenty-one
States of that Republic, while that OF Mira
mon is distracted by internal discussions. and
the recent outrages perpetrated in the City of
Mexico by the church party is re-enacung

frss allegiance TO that party. The General

az" Gov. HARRIS and his organs have
given the public copious extracts from the
Louisville Journal TO sustain the groundless
charge that the Opposition South was willing
and anxious to join the Black Republicans
as such, in a crusade against slavery. Mr.
MAGoFFGN, the democratic candidate for Gov
ernor in Kentucky, started out on the same
course in his canvass. The editor of the
Journal promptly repudiated the arguments
predicated on brief extracts from various
articles in his paper, and denounced the
imputation that he was for fusion with abo-
litionists as foul wrong. Mr.. MAGoFFIN at
once ceased the use of the argument, and has
never since repeated it. We republishcd this
article in our columns on the 9th April,
and it ought TO have beenknown to Gov. HAIR
RIs,at the time he was repeating the charge in
his speech here on the second of May, and
every day that he has used it since.
Since that time the Journal has espoused
and deliberately and continually argued and
advocated the doctrine that it ,ods the right and
day Of Congress 10 protect slauery IN the hands Of
It's Ovaers. Thus putting at rest and scatter
ing to the winds the assumption that the
editor of that paper was seeking a union
with the enemies of Southern Institutions.
The doctrine that Congress is bound TO pro-
tect slavery in the hands of its holders in the
territories, by special enactment. if necessary
had been considered extremely Southern,
and is calling down upon the head of the
Journal the bitterest anathemas of abolition
lists. In this the editor of the Journal has
shownhimself more devoted TO Southern rights
than either Gov. HARRIS or any of his organs
in this State dare to go. lie tciH not, HE DARE
NOT, take the ground that Il is The right aud duty Of
Congress 10 Iegisidte for the projection Of slavery ia
the territories. With all his Wanted friendship
aud devotion TO Southern institutions he will
not go the length that the Journal has gone,
for their protection. And yet he denounces
that paper, and the party with which il acts,
as being in league with the abolitionists to
compass the overthrow of slavery 1t is
therefore time that Gov. HARRIS should "stop
that music And we are persuaded, il be
intends to conduct this canvass on high and
fair grounds, he will abandon it.

SATURDAY, MAY Fl, 1859.
Victims OF Misplaced Confidence.

Certain Free-soil organ-grinders at the
North, to-wit GREELEY, WEED and others,
would doubtless be delighted to believe, and
perhaps do believe that the Southern Opposi-
ton TO sham Democracy are ready and willing
to vote a straieht-Out Black Republican tick
ct In the Presidential election of 1860. They
have unquestionably imbibed this idea from
placing too much reliance in the outgivings
of Southern Democratic organs. While the
incendiary and reasonable Trades of the anti
slavery fanatics of the North find ready cir
culation through the medium of the Southern
Democratic press, the Northern anti-sla-
very press, taking the bomilies of the
former for true, are emholdened by delusive
idea of strength in the South, to insist on
maintaining a strict hostile sectional attitude.
They are both enemies to conservatism, and
they are thus playing into the hands Of each
other, to crush the conservative. unsectional
sentiment, which we are seeking to array for
the salvation and glory of our Union, "be-
tween the upper and neither mill-stones"
The extremist of both parties no doubt, seek
this as contamination devoutly to be wished.
We hope and trust, with all our heart, that both
will be ioiled. We believe that the constitution
abiding, law-observing and Union-loviEg, SEN
timent of this incOmparably glorious country
Is strong enough and brave enough to meet
and overthrow the enemies of the Republic
on both sides. If we are deceived, the delu-
sion is comfortable. and we hope the day
when it shall be banished by revolution and
disruption, is yet far in the future. In the
meantime we deem it the duty of all patriotic
men of all sections to stand together in de-
fence of the country against the heartless as
saults of It's enemies everywhere.

The Canvass.

The candidates for Governor are filling their
appointments regularly. Gov. HARRIS has
improved physically, we are glad to hear,
since the canvass opened, and NETHERI-,xD was
never in betterplight. The Democrats appear
to be determined to monopolize che pen-and-
ink glory OF the campaign, and to this We have
not the slightest objection to offer. These are
weapons of warfare, with which we can
measurably dispense for the present. But
"There Is a weapon surer yet
And better than the bayonet,
weapon that comes down as stll
As snow lakes fall upon the sod,
Yet executes the freeman's will,
AZ ightnings do the Will OF Cod"
We have private accounts from various
points Of the encounter, and are fully satisfied
that NETHERI.ASD is doing bis whole duty
doing il nobly, iearlessly and successfully.
He is producing widespread aud profound
impression among the sovereign masses which
will tell glorious tale in August, provided
his efforts meet with proper cooperation from
his friends. We now tell the people that if
the popular vote shall reach 40 or las 600 IN
August, NErHERLAND teH b their Gorernor.
The only question is whether his friend.
will see that this vote is polled.
The appointment at Raleigh for Thursday
was abandoned, at the suggestion Of Gov.
HARRIS, and they spoke at Memphis yester-
day, HARRIS opening. rs il the previoas APP
pointment bad been filed. NErHEKIASD is
in the highest spirits, and is receiving the
applause and thanks Of his friends at ali
points.
From all the Congressional Districts where
we have candidates, we have the most cheer
Ing and heart-inspiring accounts. The can
