~We have not sought to be the "men.

with the action Of the General Conference
on the subject Of slavery. and that a Com

discuss this matter more fully herea. ter:
''The report Of the majority as adopted
is as follows: We believe that the buying,
selling, holding or using of human beings
as chattels is contrary to The laws of God

that it has no law operating as such on its

The unit vote of Virginia is oppressive to
the West in the fact that the majority of the
popular vote is controlled by the minority.
Western Virginia has large prcponderance
OF the Democratic vote, with six electoral
districts. while Eastern Virginia, with q
minority of the popular vote, has nine cleo
toral districts The unit vote is unjust be-
cause it frequently operates to the disfran-
chisement Of independent districts, by the
action of q majority who may be welded to
the fortunes of one man. regardless Of the
interests of the Democratic party. as was
the case at Charleston. Under our system
Of District Conventions, the delegates so
appointed should be as free to represent
their constituents as are the members of
Congress. There would be no more justice
in proposition to make the vote of the
members of Congress a unit, to be deter
mined by majority. than it is to force the
independent delegates of an Independent
district to yield to the force Of a reckless
and selfish majority. In the case in ques-
ton. it was very clear that majority Of the
delegates were Influenced by one or two
men, who, regardless Of every other consid-
Grafton. had determined to insist upon vo-
ting for Mr.. Hunter to the point either to
rule or ruin The delegates from this dis
trict dissented from this policy, and in do
ing SO, assumed that they were represent
ing their constituents They had both de-
clared, before elected. what their course
would be. and they both adhered strictly
to tho line Of policy indicated at tho Con-
venticn 10 Harrisonburg. They have been
sustained in that course, and therefore they
feel that they are not assuming too much
when they assert that they fairly and fully
represented the sentiment of the Democra-
cy of the Tenth Legion District.

Judge W. J. Robertson. Of the Court Of
Appeals Of Virginia, is strongly urged to 6ll
the vacancy on the Bench of the Supreme
Court of the United States, occasioned by
the death of Judge Daniel. "Ion." the re-

says:
"A vacancy on the bench Of the U. s.
Supreme Court is always regarded with in

of Justice Daniel will be filed by an ap-
poihtment from Virginia: learn that the
most prominent candidate for the place is

re- The Independent Democrat says
that Douglas lodged" the vote on Davis
resolutions. This is another specimen of
the fairness which is melted out to Douglas.
The editor Of the Democrat is sufficiently in
formed, we presume. to know that Judge
Douglas comm tilted himself as thoroughly a.
gainst the Objectionable features of these
resolutions as it was possible for man to do.
Consequently there could have been no OBJ
iect in lodging. The editor ought to know.
also, that Judge Douglas was confined to
his room at the time the vote was taken. by
severe indisposi,ion. We never could see
the force Of misrepresenting tho position Of
an adversary, or casting insinuations which
we knew to be unjust and unfair.

Singularly Unfortunate.

1t sreally strange condition Of things
that the two extreme portions of the Union
are mistrusting and yiliifying Judge Doug
las for precisely opposite reasons. Recent
y VIM Lloyd Garrison delivered speech
10 which he held Douglas up as traitor to
the North, because he had introduced reso-
luton in the Senate instructing the commit
tee on the Judiciary to report a bill protec-
ting each State and Territory from inva-
sion by the inhabitants or authorities Of any
other State or Territory. He denounced
this resolution as damning proof that Judge
Douglas was sold to the Slave p ower-lei-
ged with the South against the N orth-and
therefore not to be trusted by the latter.
About the same time that Garrison de-
livered this speech, Senators Davis, Bepja-
min and Mason, were assailing him in the
United States Senate as untrue to their Sec
ton. and the ally of the North to destroy
the interests and deny the rights Of the
South. Is it not strange that at one and the
same time, Mr.. Douglas is repudiated by
the Black Republicans, because he is too
much inclined to the South; and villifed by
the disunionists Of the South because his
proclivities are with the North? Strange as
this may seem, we look upon it as the strong
est indication that the conservative elemeuts
are once more coming together. and that the
prospect is bright for the restoration of the
Democratic party to its former prestige and
power throughout the nation. Let extre-
mists and fanatics, North and South. contin-
ue their assaults. They only arouse the
honest masses to reflection, the consequence
Of which will be the reorganization of the
Democratic party upon a frmer basis than
ever, and the harmless isolation of the ex-
tremists both North and South. The seces-
sion at Charleston has opened the eyes Of
many good mon in the North, who have
heretofore considered the entire South anne
nable for the fanatical views Of a few disu-
nionists, and have consequently voted a.
gainst the Democracy, that being the con-
trolling party in the South. They see now
that the conservative element here is pre-
dominant, and they are coming forward to
join hands in maintaining the integrity of
the Constitution and the perpetuity Of the
Union,

Outrageous Delinquency.

For better than week we have failed to
receive our regular daily Northern mail =
1t seems that on account Of some misunder-
standing between the Directors Of the two
roads, that the Orange and Alexandra and
the Central Roads do not connect at Gordons-
vile, which throws our mail back "a hours.
This is too intolerable to be borne in silence.
We trust the Post Office Department will
exert its power and influence to correct this
fragrant outrage upon the people. The mail
intended for West of Charlottesville, is now
detained there "a hours, Notwithstanding
the cars run through to this place regularly
every day, Sundays excepted. Last week
we received no Northern mail from Friday
till Monday evening, although the contract
requires it to be carried daily. This was
partly owing to the fact that the Directors
on the Central Road have committed the
inexcusable blunder Of stopping the train on
Sundays at Gordonsville. If they are going
to effect reform why not stop running
entirely on Sunday? Where is the morali-
ty Of refusing to run west of tn, Ridge on
Sunday, at the same time services are per-
formed east Of the Ridge? We trust, that
for the sake of common sense and self-re-
spect. the Directory will rescind its childish
order. and give us hereafter daily mail, as
we'll from Washington as Richmond. 1t is
a gross outrage upon the interests Of the
trading and business community that these
omissions exist, when they could be SO readi-
" corrected

Franklin Pierce.

1t is refreshing in these days of official
corruption and disgusting proaigacy in high
places, to refer to the pure and consistent
Administration of Franklin Pierce, while
President Of the United States. No mau
who has occupied the exalted position of
Chief Magistrate of this nation. has left be-
hind him more brilliant record, and vim
dictated more thoroughly an elevated at
tachment to principle. than Franklin Pierce.
From the Inauguration to the close, there
is running throug b the whole ofhis Admin
tration vein connecting one act with an
other, all eliminating in stern assertion
Of principle, and the exhibition of an abb
ding faith in the doctrines Of the Demo-
cratic party. The contrast between the acts
of Mr.. Pierce and those of Mr.. Buchanan
is source of deep regret to every true Dem
ocrat. The former was a faithful adher-
ence to the tenets Of the party, regardless
of men and the latter blind devotion to
self, even if the party had to be disintegra-
ted, and the Union itself destroyed.
It would afford the Democracy of the ma
ton pleasure to attest their admiration of
Franklin Pierce, by again elevating him to
the position he filed with so much honor to
himself and good to the country.
