ReA. Although Letchcrs majority for Governor
Of Virginia may reach six thousand, or even a
higher figure--owing to his gains in the freeso
district in the Northwcst--the victory of the Oppo-
stion Is a signal one, add the disintegration of the
Democracy placed beyond question. -Four indepen-
dent Democrats and one Wing are elected to Con-
gress and the staunton Spectator says, rs far as
heard from the Opposition have gained sixteen
members Of tile Lower House and four of the SEN
ate. Such result in the Gibraltar Of Locofocoism
ought 70 cheer the heart and nerve the arm of
every man in Tennessee who desires the overthrow
of the corrupt party which rules but to ruin There
never was farcr prospect for signal triumph Of
the Opposition if its members will only work and
without work defeat is certain. The man who
confdes in the justice of his cause is too apt to
fatter himself that its intrinsic truth win carry it
forward to victory but this is fatal mistake The
omnipotence of truth is pretty theory, and would
work well in practice, were its power nresised by
falsehood But as the devil can assume the sem
bance of an angel of light, and thus betray so
flsehood can don the robes of truth, and cheat the
unwary, and the selfish and corrupt are ever ready
to give currency to the counterfeit. And strange
as it may seem, bad men, in bad cause, display
more energy than the best men in the best cause
The reverse ought to be true; and we do hope that
the Opposition VIII reverse the rule in the canvass
and work, woodwork till the close of this polls,
and thus demonstrate that good cause can arouse
all the energies of their nature

Bog Last week. the Louisville Courier demo-
cratic, speaking of the Opposition in the South,
said
"By their position on the doctrine of protection
to slavery in the Territories, they have cIectually
destroyed all prospects Of union with the Black
Republicans
This is not only true, but carries with it the adj
mission, that the position of the southern democrats
is favorable to such an union Not only is this the
case, but the democratic position was taken with an
eye to that union. Douglass, who was shrewd
enough to see that no man could carry the North
on any other platform than that upon which the
Republicans stand, at took his position upon it.
and boldly claimed it rs purely democratic. Breck-
cnFidpc the Vice President saw into Douglass hand
and without any regard to the interests of the
South, or to the principles involved in the move
mcnt determined to play the same card, knowing
that no other could win in the Charleston Conven-
ton, or at the haot-boN. One after another of the
leading southern democrats followed suit and, by
their combined influence, have succeeded in Black
The rank and file are innocent of the wrong be-
cause they have been bindy led so long, that tC
follow has become an instinct too powerful to be
resisted The Courier has done the Opposition
Justice, and it is strange that sosng clearly tn,
position Of our party, it continues blind TO the posi-
ton Of its own, and continues to support men who
occupy a stand practically along side of the Re
publicans Neither the Courier nor any one els,
can successfully deny that those in the South, who
advocate the doctrine that Congress has no powe
to protect slavery IN the Territories, and that tn
people Of a Territory have the exclusive control o
that subject, occupy The same ground with tn
Black Republicans. This is uudcniahy true an,
if the Opposition have, by their position, made al
union with the Black Republicans impossible, Tia
democrats have, by their postion-aud designed,
too--plocri themselves in II position which make
theirs with that party not ouly possible but nbsolu
tcly certain.

Ray Virginia in the popularity of its political as
poets is a miniature likeness of the Union. 1t has its
slavery interests and its ant-slavery enemies both
within its borders, and the day may come when the
people of the eastern division may be anxious to
divide the State in order to proectslavery Leteh
er was to get rid of it. Now, the democrats of low
er Virginia are more to. blame for the ant-slavery
triumph achieved by the northwestern counties than
the emancipation democrats themselves; for had the
former looked to their own interests, and rebukcd
the movement of which Letcher is the head, the
conservatives west of the mountains, would have
crushed, and perhaps forever the disciples of Ruff
ner and the colonsts of Eli Thayer. But the cas-
tern democrats like those of the southern division
of the Union were eager for the spoils, and all 9TH
er considerations were secondary thereto The Goa
tion of the slavery and anti-savery democrats elect
ed Letcher, as a similar coalition of northern and
southern democrats has elected Presidents. Let
Virginia give way, and slavery is doomed institu-
tion and should it give way the responsibility viii

would drop the slavery portion of his speech if he
had anything to put in the place of it, He may be
disguised with it-and ought to be-but it is n
part of the programme fixed up by the nominating
Convention and he can't give it the go-by. Be
ing the best trump in his hand, it fills place that
he could not occupy without working mischief to
his party. He dare not defend the administration
nor the charges of corruption against his party
the attempt to do either would ruin him. Then
what must he do to avoid SO dangerous an expert
ment? Why, cry niger nigger!' all the time.
1t is contemplate cry--one with which the peo-
pie are becoming disguised; but it is better that
than TO be forced to show his hand the subject of
