Opposition Convention in Virginia.

The Wings of Virginia are to meet in
State Convention IN the 22nd inst. The
Richmond Wing says
We want to see an old-fashioned assem-
blagc of the patriotic, Union-loving people,
and an expression of sentiment which shall
paralyze sectionalists and extremists every
where. We want the people to come up
and hear the clarion voices of our leaders
speaking in behalf of the Constitution, and
the Union, that they may 60 home filed
with a renewed zeal in the good cause
We hope and believe the time has come
when the people will rise in their might
and majesty to rebuke sectionalism and
corruption, and indicate the sentiment of
devotion to the Constitution and the Union.
which pervades the hearts of the masses,
not only in Virginia, but throughout the
entire country.
The Wing announces that Senator Crit
tenden is to be present and make a speech.
Among the incidents of the convention will
be the presentation of a service of silver
plate, on the part of the Wings of Virginia,

the campaign last Spring.

Religious 1ntolerance-3ible Burning.

Recent adyices from Bogota bring us IN
~telligence of a piece of gross intolerance
on the part Of the priests there. For
some time past 4 branch of the London
Bible society has been established in that
city. and quite a number of Bibles were
sold among the people. By order of the
Catholic Clergy all these Bibles were re-
Gently collected, or a very large number of
them, and burnt With great ceremony in
the public Square. The British Minister
strongly protested against the proceedings,
but, we regret deeply to learn that the
United States Minister, Gen. Jones, eoun-
tenanced the outrage. by being present at
the ceremony. Mr.. Jones, we believe is
a Roman Catholic, and his bigotry on this
occasion appears to have lead him to COM
NIT an act which should cause his immedi-
ate recall.
We learn that a fun statement of this
affair has b.en sent to Washington.
In this Republic all religions are toler-
ated by the government, and certainly thus
far foreigners cannot be accused Of inter
fering in, or endeavoring to upset the tenets
of the people of the country, yet here We
see, under the very eye of the Executive,
and in the very heart of the Capital, a most
groos and wanton insult offered to every
Protestant, an act of narrowminded intol-
erance, worthy of the middle ages, and
which shows. notwithstanding the enlight-
eminent of the nineteenth century, the big
otry which still enshrouds the priesthood Of
this country. and their disposition, if they
had the power, to ~tyranize over and tram
pie on all sects except their own
This step Of the priests of Bogota will
do little to advance their religion even
among the most ignorant, and will be con-
temned by the intelligent of all seets and
classes, as an act more worthy of semi
barbarians than of protesting ChristianE-

Facts 70 he Remembered

The reader should treasure up the fUl.
lowing facts respecting the excitement in
the House of Representatives at Washing.
tOu. The Baltimore. Patriot says, they
are facts to be remembered:
l. Every exciting speech that has vet
been made has fallen from the lips of the
revolutionary Locofoco members.
9. They have announced their solemn
determination to make a revolution, if any
man but a LOcofoco shall be elected the
next President.
8. They continue to insult gentlemen of
the Opposition. even after they have dis
claimed all sympathy for or with Helpers
Book.
4. They continue to insult them by
openly charging them with completely in
the Harper's Ferry invasion, notwithstan.
ding they Indignantly deny having any
knowledge of it.
5. They are daily seeking to cmbitter
the public mind of the South against the
North and West, with the obvious intent
of preparing the South for a revolution.
6. Newspapers from which the South
American party had a right to expect
better things, are aiding in this wicked
work of e~strangement. by stigmatizing the
whole Northern and Western Opposition as
a sectional party, when they have done
nothing but sit still and hold their tongues,
and vote for the men of their choice.
If the country is ever to have peace it is
not to be had by the ordinations and re-
of the various parties in the
House upon the question of slavery, but
by initiating the moderation which
cearacterizes the Republicans and South
Americans, who have exhibited mere chris
ti5n forbearance than has ever fallen to
the lot of a like body of mel to display
under such terrible goadings as those which
have signalized the assault of the Revolu-
LOcotocOs for the last ten days.

Gold Discoveries in Missouri.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. IS.
The discovery of gold in Southeast Mis-
souri, has been further confirmed by the re-
cent examinations. The gold bearing rock
consists of an immense dyke, which has
been traced for some six miles, and appears,
at a point several miles distant from the
locality first opened. to be as rich in pre-
ciOus metal as anywhere else. 1t is mex
haustable in depth, and will improve in
richness in going down on it.
Mr.. Reynolds, a blacksmith, of Fred
erickton, succeeded in obtaining several
buttons of gold from the mine, by smelling
the ore in a common forge fire.
