I'VE VICE PRESIDENCY We have heret0inrr thought
very little about the election to come of on the first
Wednesday in November lar least as the Presi-
dency and Vice Presidency concerned, as have
been in the habit OF regarding it as mere matter of
form, mere expression of determination already
rived at So far as Predent Davis is concerned this
is no doubt the fact. II he lives he will be the first
President under the Permanent Constitution we'll
under the Provisional one. His reelection is certain
as that any election at all will be held.
As regards Mr.. Stephens the case to be some
what different. Som, inf lentsl journals, the Rich
mond Examiner among the number raise the standard
of opposition Mr. Stephens attaching Importance
to the Vice Presidential question due mainly to the
feeble health OF President Davis, whose delicate health
is severely tried by the exactng requirements OF bis
difficult and responsible position. Should Mr. Davis
sink under the burhen, then 10 the event OF bis DEATH
Mr.. Stephens would be the President, and painful as
the conviction may be- forced to the conclusion
that our beloved President retains his hold life by
brittle cord which may be snapped at any moment.
Is Mr.. Stephens the to take Jtferson Davis
place? Is he the man to fill the void that jefferson Da
Wis death would leave? We fear that he is not. We
fear that able and energetic he u.s. he is the man
OF the closet and the forum than the of the field
the cabinet. 1t is doubtful whether any man could
succeed to the full confidence which the people rpose in
President Davis but must think that might be
found who would much to doing &c than A.
n. Stephens; and, indeed, although we cannot bring
ourselves to doubt Mr. Stephens fidelity it cannot be
denied that the people would prefer to trust the interests
of this rising nationality in the hands of man who
had heartily approved the action by which that nation
atty was asserted rather in those of who, like
Mr. Stephens reluctantly assented to what be did not
sanction, but could not prevent.
Apart from this even, it ought to be remembered that
if IT, feeble health of President Davis much
Incidental importance attach to the Vice Presidency
would be leaning on feeble reed surely, if in the
event of Mr.. Davis decease had to depend upon
successor whose physical frame proverbay fra and
whose health is more than usually precarious.
We must deprecate the vefemance with which the
Examiner pitches il" to Vice President Stephens
who whether be ought to elected or not, is dis
tinguished Southern Statesman, entitled to respectful
treatment by the press and tie public at large 1t may
be well TO consider whether due weight in the Gov
ernmant has been accorded to those border or semi
border States who by stepping into the breache, have
borne the brCut of the battle-the heat AID burden
the day Still this may be done and ought to be done
without passion or feeling other than for the good of the
| country.
