ssy"Thc Commissioners who came to
Washington to obtain recognition by
Congress of the new State of Western
Virginia, have returned to Wheeling.-
The project finds less favor here than was
expected, Several strong reasons will
operate against the proposed division Of
Virginia. 1t will be opposed by the rad
icals, because they are unwilling to lose
the moral and Legislative influence of
Western Virginia upon the pro-s!avcry
portion Of the State. 1t will be opposed
by those who desire to carry out the
Presidents policy of gradual emancipa-
ton, as it would destroy all hope of for
cling such measure upon Eastern virgin.
ia bonds, which are held to the amount of
many millions by loyal citizens of the
North. 1t is preferable that the debt in
CURED by Eastern Virginia to carry on
the rebellion should be repudiatcd, and
the resources Of the whole State applied
to the liquidation of the honest debt due
to loyal citizens, and the State, as a
whole, subjected to the gradual cmanci-
patton suggested by'Mr. Lincoln.
