at is now definitely determined to establish

Ohio volunteers. 1t is expected that number
of the men will arrive and pitch their tents in the
early part Of this week."
These troops ought to be encamped at Ben.
wood, opposite Bellair, on the Virginia side of
the Ohio. If they are wanted in that quarter
at oil, it is on the Virginia side Of the river,
and not on the Ohio side. And furthermore,
no time should be lost in dispelling the idea
that the national forces have any sort of hesta.
ton about occupying Virginia. To post these
troops at Belair, is exactly the way to confirm
that most mischievous delusion.

CONVERTING STATES INTO PROV.
INrES

Il Is said that to conquer The South, will de-
stroy the old Union OF independent states, ex'
tinguish the American principle of seltgovern.
ment, and reduce one section of the country to
a condition OF humiating vnssalage.
Nobody proposes to conquer the South or to
diminish in any particular the rights Of the
Southern States, as they have existed since the
formation of the Constitution. After this war
is over, they will govern themselves as fully as
they have done so heretofore, and subject only
TO the same limitations and restraints Of the
national authority as heretofore.
What will happen, as they ore successfully
rescued from their present social and political
disorganization, is, that the Union men who are
the majority in every one Of them except (pos.
sibly) South Carolina, being enabled by the
assistance of the national forces to overthrow
dynasty fastened upon them by surprise, will
resume the control of affairs, and everything
will then go on harmoniously as before.
The case of Maryland illustrates what will be
witnessed elsewhere.
That State, to be sure, was in the hands Of a
secession mob for only few days, but that was
because the national power, pledged by the
Constitution to guaranty to all the States
republican form Of government, was close at
hand to redeem the pledge.
The rights of Maryland as a State remain
intact. Her people govern themselves to all
intents and purposes, as fully as they ever did.
The national authority is not exerted within her
territory, single inch beyond its old limits
President Lincoln appoints collectors and post
masters, holds Fort McHenry, and marches
troops through the States according to his views
of the public interest, just as all his predeces.
sors in the Presidential office have done, time
out of mind. If this makes Maryland prov.
ince, she has never been anything else.
In truth, what has been accomplished in
Maryland is not the overthrow, but the resto.
ration of the right Of selfgovernment, tempo.
rarily lost by the ascendency of a minority fac.
ton.
Precisely the same restoration is now de.
manded by the people Of Virginia, who are
groaning under as barefaced tyranny as was
ever established on the face of the earth.
That outraged people, by deliberate ma
jority of more than fifty thousand votes at the
election of the 4th of February, directed their
State Convention to do nothing to change the
then existing political relations, without their
consent first had and obtained. In the teeth
of this direction, the Convention, yielding to
the terrors of Richmond mob proceeded,
without consulting the people, not only to put
the State into condition of war with the
United States, but to transfer the military di.
rocton of affairs to foreign Confederacy, and
to introduce the troops of that Confederacy in
large numbers within the limits Of Virginia,
thus prostrating all freedom at the feet of a
military despotism.
To expel this despotism, will not be to reduce
Virginia to the condition of province, but to
raise her from that condition, into her old dig
nifty as free and independent American Com
monwealth.

STAGNATIoN OF BUSINESS IN NORTH CARO-

dreadfully dull in North Carolina since the
passage of the secession ordinance. Several
papers have suspended publication. The Will

"We have been compelled TO suspend the
publication of the Herald with this issue. Our
reasons for so doing will be anticipated by
every one acquainted with the condition of bust
ness in the country. There is nothing doing
in the way of advertisements, and collections

nance of secession will be, in the greater part
of the State, an empty form. Virginia is over
run with troops from the South, while her own
secessionists, embodied as military force, are
scattered into almost every county, to overawe
the people. Men may vote against secession,
if they choose, but ouly at the peril of being
lynched.
The Richmond Convention to make assu.
rance doubly sure, provided that, in addition
to the ordinary polling places, polls should be
open in the military eneampments. This ex.
traordnary privilege, which will be availed of,
not only by the soldiers resident in Virginia,
but by those from South Carolina Georgia, and
other Southern States not excepting the Chero
kee Indians from North Carolina, has beer
still further enlarged as will be seen by the fol
lowing from the Alexandria Sentinel:
"Gen. Lee has issued orders to our miitar
to take al once vote on ratifying the ordi
nance of secession. This vote is simply pre-
cautionary,' and is to be held to meet the con
tingency Il at the military exigencies o
Thursday next, be such as to prevent the vote
of the soldiers being taken on that day.
the election may afterwards be regularly held
the precautionary vote goes for nothing; other
wise, it is to be forwarded to the Convention
for its action. This order of Cen Lee is il
execution of an order of the Governor anC
Council"
Under this order, the vote of the soldiers a
Alexandria was taken on Tuesday, and result
ed, 1873 for disunion, against it, and refu
sing to vote.

some of the most digni6ed but desperate men

hold high positions, and they have determined
to proceed with their work, when they begin,
with power and effect. We hope they will act
with discretion, and hang those only who are
positively guilty of bad faith to the State. Let
those who are wise take heed in time, ere it
