Of the most boisterous passions, the most

Mr.. Taylor replied again, on the Goth
of February. Among other good things
he says:
at astonishcs me, ncverthclcss,t to hear
from you that Washinyton's opinions on
Slavery were contrary to Scripture and
Reason that Jefferson, if now living,
would not be welcome visitor to a
Virginia COMMUNICATION find, in a
history Of Virginia, written by yourself,
this declaration 'Thc last and most i'm
portant cause, unfavorably affecting Vir-
GINA, which we shall mention, is the cx-
ss s,S Ct .ss ta sipSpr e that
general, the people Of Virginia hold
Slavery to be an enormous evil, bearing
with fatal power upon their prosperity"
Allow me to ask whether your history
was written by the light Of Scripture
and Reason"
1t will be seen that the Virgiuian ex-
presses his opinion openly, that Wash
ington and Jefferson did not know what
slavery was, and that their views would
not now be welcomed in Virginia. The
Nirglnian gives the present position of
the Democracy, but the Democratic
Convention less honest attempts to dis
guise it, 1t is evident that no "JeFer-
sonian Democrat can longer act with
the present slave breeding Democracy
If man is a Democrat of this dsy he is
not Jcffcrsonian.
E0- We announced last week that
Ex-Lieut. Governor Thomas II. Ford, of
Ohio, was elected printer for the House.
The announcement was premature, as
Mr.. Ruffn came in the next mornino
and asked to have his name recorded on
the election Of printer which, after some
discussion, was done This made the
vote tie and so there was no election.
Since then however another vote was
had and Mr.. FORD was elected by FIVE
majority, thus placing it out of the power
of any RuNn to defeat the election.
The Dcs Molnes correspondent of the
H"~h, Eye thus epitomzcs the platform
of the late Democratic State Conventions:
| wish the convention had required
more brevity in their platform. 1t that
case, it would have been about thus:
