ling.-WhRtit Ought TO do.
An able writer in the Philadelphia Press
in speaking of the condition of things IN
this State, aud of the Wheeling convention,
says:
But there is great section of that State
TO which the rebellion and treason has not
extended, and which is loyal and true to
its constitutional duties. Is that section
70 be handed over to the rebels? By no
means. Is It TO be maintained in its noble
loyHIty2 By all and every means, cost
what blood and treasure it may.
But that section must have civil Govern
ment7 Certainly it must, and has it, all
provided to its hand, in the old Constitu-
ton and laws of Virginia, as they stood
betoreit wasattempIedto alter or adapt them
to the purposes of rebellion and treason
by the late Convention of that State, aud
its late legislation, all of which alterations
aud adaptations, being for purposes of
treason, are simply void aud of no effect.
The people have but to treat them thus,
and to see that no practical operation is
allowed to be given to them in Any court
Of justice, or by any civil or other officer.
The people are thrown back upon original
rights against the assertion of pretended
and usnrped ones.
TO the people, represented at Wheeling,
the authorities of Virginia, engaged in re-
belliOn and treason, h&vcs ceased to be au-
thorities. They and the rebel authorities
stand upon different platforms of right and
law. II Is to them all one as If the wrath
of God had eugulphed the whole of East.
ern Virginia, and they found themselves.
ou the sudden, without Governor, great
seal, Legislature, or other authorities, or
symbols of authority. What should they
dot Elect or make Others on the old plat
form OF of the old pattern, and go on as if
nothing had happened.
These men and counties of Northwest
ern Virginia are now, in theft int zgrity and
loyalty, all of Virginia that recognizes
the Constitution of tie United States, and
upor them has devolved all of its acting
aud actual sovereignty which has not been
wrested away by treason and rebellion
Let them, then, exercise it, MS freely and
as fully as they would exercise it in the
asesupposed, asiFthe rest of Virginia Gems
ing to exist, not as neI0 State, but as the
glorious, grand old State heIself-mother
of States and statesmen-amd in her name,
dear to the American heart by a thousand
recOllectiOns, which neither time nor folly
can ever blot out.
If this Convention at Wheeling, acting
as they alone hnve right to do, in the
name of the Virginia OF the United States,
pu G:he machineryof the State Government
into operation upon the basis on which it
stood before the act and ordinance of the
late traitorous Legislature AND Convection
at Richmond, and call upon the people to
elect "a Legislature and a Governor, and all
other proper officers, as if there were no
such officers in existence in Virginia, they
will place themselves upon such sure
ard firm set rock of light as can never be
shaken or overturned.

substantially, done at Harper's Ferry,
Virginia troops were marched upon the
place to seize the arsenal. They did not
get possession as John Brown did, only
because the Tigilant little garrison, know
ing its inability to resist such superior
numbers, destroyed the property and made
good its retreat. They menaced this Cap
itAl by open threats Of military force. by
obstructing the roads leading to it, aud by
active endeavors to command the navigH-
ton of the Potomac. Aud all this WAS
done while the State. accordingsto the LETT
ter of its own law, remained a member of
the Unionl
Think you, my dear sir, that men who
do these things in open day aud in con-
tempt of the rights and powers of the Peo-
pie of Virginia, have such a reverence for
treason, order, law, liberty, morality and
religion" as to give much heed to the Pres
ident's proclamation proposing o truce "
lack the faith to believe it,
In conclusion, assure You in NIL sim
certify that ] do deeply sympathise in your
present distress. 1 love the,people of my
native State, md mourn ovcrthe guilt and
wretchedness into which they thoughtless-
Is allow themselves to be plunged by their
reckless misleaders.
With long-cherished respect and regard,
remain your oh't serv't,

PoETIc JUSTICE is now the order of the
d"y-but nevertheless We, after fashion,
somewhat pity poor Rhodes-( RhodemOu-
tnde we used to call him )-of the Parkers-
burg News. His luminous sheet was in
Contineutly snufed ont last Friday night
--as witness the following dispatch in the
Cincinnati papers:
The Office of the Parkersburg, VA, News.
Secession sheet, was completely demol-
ished on Friday night by crowd Of Union
men, who considered it their duty to stop
its issue.
Poor Rhodes deserved the treatment al
though, as we said, We are sorry for him.
Next to the late Wheeling UpiOn, he pub
lisbed one of the me0uest papers in the
United States. he used to amuse his lei
supe by predicting the same fate for the
Wheeling IntcUIgcneer that has overtakeu
himself Since Rhodes has now no paper
to read, we hope he will take to the study
of his Bible-especially that fne moral
lesson found in the career and fate of
Haannn-~ths man who built his own
gallowS under a mistake.

The o1orsnan county People.


We concur in the weI-deserved tribute
which correspondent pays to the glorions
Union men of Marshall county, in to days
paper. They have acted most noLly
throughout this contest, from the election
of james Burley to the Richmond Conven-
ton, down to the proceedings of the meet
ing which we print this morning. AT that
meeting, the people Indignantly and right
fully protested against the Baltimore Road
any longer retaining in his dangerous
place, Major Barry, the depot master, no.
torious secessiOnist. And also against the
longer continuance of two of his co-opera-
tives at'he depot. Major Barryis an Irish
man, who owes all that he is and has to
tue kind protection of the flag of our
country. he solemnIy swore to support
and uphold that dag and the Government
which it represented, whenever it should
need his support. This oath he broke on
last Thursday, and no such man is ct to
be trusted. We hope that every communi.
~ in Western Virginia that has men like
Barry, occupying dangerous places among
them, will follow the good example Of the
Moundsrille people, aud Gust them in the
earliest legitimate mRnuer.

The VOte OF Western Virginia--The
Convention.


Some twenty.tour or Eve counties in
Western Virginia have now been heard
from since the election. and they Que and
all have given Un.on majorities ranging
from three hundred up to three thousand
There never was an election, we presume,
since elections began, ia which the peo-
pie expressed themselves more overwhelm-
ingly opposed to anything, than the people
of Western Virginia have to the Infamous
ordinance of secession. They have utter
ly aud scornfully and Indignantly rejected
it, and have declared most Enthusiastically
thar they are determined never to live un-
der any other banner than the glorious
stars aud stripes. The majority in this
Congressional district alone is considera-
hiy upvqrds Of thirteen thousand Think
of thaiI Could people be more unnni-
mous and go through the forms of an cleo
ton at ALI To all intents and purposes
our people are compact unit on this sub
ject. They have taken their stand boldly
Rpd determinedly on the side of the Union.
GCbey have morally cut loose from Eastern
Virginia and declared to the world that we
have neither part, lot, nor sympathy with
her. With such vote as has been cast in
favor of devotion to the Union, the dele
gates will come up to the June convention
full of the pluck and FIRE of their constit-
uents, aud sustained as theywill be by the
arms of tue Government and the sympa-
thy of the country they will be prepared
to fully and fin"lly gr"pple with the ques-
tion of legitimacy in the admin. trttion of
