MANY readers will remember IL drinking
song that went the rounds of the papers {"
few months ago, the verses beginning with,
I'm very fond of water"
but always ending with the qualification
that the water should be mixed with BRAN
dy, gin, or some other form of liquor. a
religious paper-the Tciescope-published
at Dayton, Ohio, observing the first line Of
the soug, thought it was IL good temperance
piece, and without reading 1T through, pub
lished it to be Mortified at the discovery
that it had given its pious readers bac-
chanalian song.

More Work for Our Manufacturers

Col. CrOthers, who has just returned from
Washington, informs us that still more ex-
tepsive contracts are to be given to our
Wheeling manufacturers aud mechanics,
for war materials. Besides being we'll
pleased with the work already done, the
Government is determined that the work
for the army in Western Virginia shall, as
far as possible, be done by Western vir-
ginia people. This is right, and shows a
liberal spirit of discretion and good policy
on the part of the Government.

GEN. LEI continues to receive smart

The contrast between his old position,

:. pleasant one to him. Tho Richmond

the enemy should be able to maintain him

urocIamttious, West Point scienccand con-
summnte engineering had been the tactics
for the AlIegLanies, doubtless Rosrcr"ns,
ere this, would have been used up man.
But while we were telling timber and march
ingcolumns, with great pomp, for no other
purpose than to take good look ut the

legs, and striking blow where, according

The New State--The Lesson OF the
q Late Election.

The New State--Thc Lesson OF the
Late Election.
We have no sympathy with those per-
sons or With those papers that, previous to
the election, kept telling US that this was
not the time for the people of Western
Virginia to move in the matter of new
State. Suppose we had all taken their
view, or their advice, and voted down the
proposition. Immediately it would have
gone out to the world, from these very per-
sops and presses, that the people of North
Western Virginia did not want new State
that they were opposed to it per Sc
that it was simply AN abolition move, and
that nobody but Black Republicans aud
other disreputable people were in favor of
it. That would have been the song we
should have heard All over Secessia the
news would have gone that a reaction had
taken place in the minds of the people
since May last. and that they now wanted to
return to the fold and max e common cause
with the diSloyAl portions of the State. -.
The people thoroughly understood the
gist of the whole cutlery against present ex-
pedieney. They recognized this plain and
palpable fact, that the men who got it up
were not friends Of the new State, and at
no other time would they be a bit more
likely to vote for it than now. Recognize
ing this fact, they turned in ind as one man
voted for the measure. They seized the
strong common sense view of the subject,
as if by intuition, aud determined that
whether the project succeeded or not be-
fore Congress, the world should see that it
was the choice of the people of the North
west 70 have new State, and that they
were not one whit less firm and inflexiLlc
towards the Eastern Virginia usurpers now
than they were last spring.
Had we voted down the new State that
would have ended it. We never, in this
generation, could have brought it to the
vote again. All our talk for the last TWEEN
t6-fve years would have been considered
~ retracted. Sour position wouid have
been most uneuvinble. We would have
stimulated the secessionists 20 fresh life
and vigor, both east aud west. As it is,
we have disheartened them. They see
that we are dead opposed to them; that we
are frm and intend to remain so, and that
It Is no use for them to think OF bringing us
under the Richmond and JEFF Davis yoke.
