HTA Virginia Professor 10 thus taken to

for utsering disunion speech:
Professor Holcombe, of the University
OF Virginia, has been delivering himself OF
some disunion talk at a public meeting in
Albemarle. The University 10 sustained by
IN annual appropriation of SIS 900 from the
tax-burdened people Of the Commonwealth,
and We think this poor return for the mo
ney. The Professors in the University should
confne themselves to their appropriate bust
ness, and mot lend themselves to the unholy
work Of weakening the ties which bind TO
gether the several parts of the Union"
The Inteiligsncer, perhaps ii is needless TO
say, lie not a "Democratic' paper. Dis
union demonstrations and threats of treason
are confined to the Democracy, South as we'll
