Hon. WILLIAM L. GoGGiN.-The Baltimore

Mr.. Goggin,
I'm conclusion, We must lie permitted to
pay our hearty tribute OF praise to the Oppo-
sition candidate, Mr.. GogGin, for the lofty,
daring, indomitahle energy, the high, chi,
yalric courtesy with which he has Conducted
the campaign. Not Wise, in 80, nor Doug
las in his battle against Lincoln and the Adj
ministratiou, surpassed the courage and en-
durance displayed by William L. Gogsin in
the canvass Just ended, And for courtesy
we know not where to find his equal, lie
has nobly sustained the proud name and tame
of the Wings of olden time, and the wings
of Virginia owe ii to him, and TO themselves
and to their brethren in other States who are
Just Harvesting for the fight, to evince AUST
and generous appreciation of his services by
some public and enthusiastic demonstration
If thew have lost the name, they have gained
the substance of victory. Let them rejoice
over it, and, while rejoicing, give honor to
whom honor is due"

Another Campaign Opened.

simultaneously with the news Of the battle
of Monteheilo come accounts Of the opening
Of the Spring campaign, III the ABIDING coun-
ties, by the %rutians Of Baltimore. We learn
that on Monday evening the steamboat Lam
caster went ON an excursion To Browns Paw
lion about ten miles down the river, and
upon her arrival at the place a tight ensued
between the escursionists and another party
who had gone 10 the Pavilion from the city
in buggies," and several Of the combatants
received severe injuries" On the same
morning a Sabbath school party" went up
on an excursion to the Relay House, upon
the Baltimore aud Ohio Railroad, and seem
TO have had a very happy time, until ten
or fifteen rowiie-, hailing from Federal Hill,
appeared on the ground" Although armed
with knives and pistols, these desperadoes
were held in check, apparently by superior
numbers, but not before they had effectually
put an end Ia the enjoyment Of these harm
less excursionists, and well nigh produced
some serious results by their brutal behavior.

The Rhode Island Legislature adjourned
last week after a session of four days-and
after passing four public acts. Shorthand,
we hope, agreeable. Every now and then,
when some business of interest to parties
concerned, is not acted upon by the Eir-
ginia Legislature in the time limited by the
Constitution for the session Of our Legis-
lature, we hear complaints. But the pro-
liability is, that upon the whole. the linn,

the great mass of the people. There is
more doubt az to biennial sesslons-but'

The Philadelphia Ledger speaking Of the
late battle of Monticello, between the Allies
and the Austrians, says, the hostile forces
engaged in the battle were probably nearly
equal. We do not believe that there was
any such disparity as the French bulletins
report, and the Austrian account throws
strong doubts upon the fact. The tight APP
pears for the most part to have been IA hand
to hand battle. in which, ifthe French show,
ed their usual ardor, the Austrians showed
also their natural stubborness, and were not
beaten without very hard knocks IN return.
The loss to both sides is probably very nearly
equal. If the Austrians were compelled TO
retreat, the French were not able to pursue.
and the only real advantage gained at the
cost of the lives of So many valuable men,
is the eclat which attends victory. and which
TO soldiers is an addition of moral strength,
which adds vastly to their physical force
From the energy and the resistance shown
by the Austrians, the prospect is not so Nat
tering for a speedy campaign as the French
soldiers seem to imagine.

The Rebellion in China, Of which formerly
