KENTUcKIANs IN VIRGINIA. Among
the gallant spirits that have left the emas-
culated State of Kentucky to seek congo
NAL service in the Old Dominion, in de-
fence of Southern Rights, we are pleased
to see our young friend, L. NJ. Thomas, of
Christian county, spoken of in terms of
commentator by the Richmond Dispatch.
He went to Virginia early in the spring,
and, the better to qualify himself for the
duties of soldier, entered the Military
Institute at Lexington, where he made such
progress in military science, that he has
been detailed to Camp Morgan, near the
Natural Bridge, to drill portion of Gen.
Wises Brigade. He has wide field be-
fore him, and, Judging from the beginning
he has made, he bids fair to win distinc-
ton and to prove that all the sons Of Ken
lucky are not degenerate.

s@- Baltimore is, practically, under
martial law, and its citizens are subjected to
wrongs and indignities the very contem-
plation of which is sufficient to arouse to
action every one capable approaching the
blessings of freedom. Whilst the States
that have thrown off all allegiance to a
military despotism keep the usurper at bay,
and pay back every wrong with interest,
the States still claiming to be loyal, are
treated as conquered provinces, and their
people insulted, wronged and murdered by
a lawless soldiery. Let the people of Ken
lucky, who are giving their sanction to
such tyranny, take warning from the fate
of Maryland and Missouri, The fancied
neutrality upon which they rely for safety,
is but the lull that precedes the bursting
of the storm-the timid policy that invites
agnression-the hour of fatal inaction on
the one side, and of successful preparation
on the other

M. The Nashville. Banner is out for
Col. w. Fl. Polk for Governor, and assigns
some reasons for the preference Up to
this time, Mr.. Polk is the only man, so far
as we know, pitted regularly against the
present incumbent and there seems to be
prevailing Indifference, on the part Of the
people, as to who shall be the next Cover
nor, or whether there shall be one at all
Without sharing this indifference to the
fullest extent, we are not yet sufficiently
excited to hurry us into choice between
Harris aud Polk and should we ever reach
that point, we shall be as much puzzled as
little boy hesitating between two five
cent ginger-cakes of the same baking
Both are men'of fair abilities, but that they
are equal to the present emergency, we are
not prepared to assert The deficiency,
however, lies not so much in the want Of
talent as in those partizan habits and feel
ings which have so long prompted them to
consider the best interests of the State as
secondary to the success of party. To be
able to overcome the difficulties which en-
compass the administration Of the govern
ment, a man must be able first to conquer
himself-to rise superior to the claims Of
political association, and recognize merit
where it really exists, instead of predicatine
its existence upon past party affiliations
When measured by this standard, we feal
that Gov Harris has fallen short; but
whether Col Polk would come fully up tC
it, must be matter for conjecture until he
has been tried. To make the Confederate
States model Governments il can, anC
should bets administration should b
contided to model men, and but few sucf
can be found among the old party hacks
who have been educated as political jug
glers rather than as honeststatesmen TIL,
people are aware of this fact, and want o
confidence in politicians makes them indif
ferent as to whether or. not they have an.
Governor or Legislature for the next tw,
years Whether we are for Harris or Poll
will be decided when the choice is restrict
ed to the two.
