We are in favor of the proposition made
by the President to purchase and cOIoniZe
the slaves of any State accepting it. We
believe West Virginia would be better off
to accept this than to wait until the slaves
all run away. In the late vote there were
ten counties that voted on emancipation,
and there were 8. 293 votes for it, and but
40 against it, which, at the same ratio,
would give in the forty counties 81, 900 for
emancipation, aud GAO against it. We go
warmly with the $1,000, aud scribblers
may make the most of it.-PGrkeTSEurg
Gazette.
Brother Wharton, it sounds natural to
hear you talk this way, much more so than
it did to hear you raising your voice on the
other side of the question, when the Con-
veutiou was in session. Wekuow that you
believe what you say now, and We could
not do you the injustice of believing that
you were true to yourself in your former
tone. 1t has always been Your character
istic to be in the advance, aud not in the
wake of public sentiment, and we hope
that now in your old age you are not go-
ing to fall in with the swat and see poll
icy OF certain other newspaper, we'll
