pointed:
First Sergeant, Sergeants, 8 Corporals,
2 Artfieers, Or Master Sergeant, 2 Musicians,

The Mileage Question.

The Wellsburg Herald of yesterday
in speaking about the mileage matter says;
sIt appears that the Legislature adjourn
ed during the warm weather, confessedly,
not for the public good but for their own
convenience; and after sundry protests on
the part of individual members consider
able sum of money was paid out for mile
age and per diem. The Senate took no
mart in it. The members of tho House
who accepted the funds, undertake to JUS
tify themselves by urging various reasons
most of which are unsound or frivolous,
and one of the most unsound, is that Of
precedent in the old Virginia Legislature
The legislators of West Virginia, should
have spirit enough to repudiate all adhe
renee to precedent in the legislation of the
old State, even in matters of merit; much
more should they be ashamed of them
selves for quoting it iii matters that art
plainly wroBg and indefensible in them
selves. Constructive pay in any shape ha
always been an offence in the nostrils o
the tax payers, and it was to get rid of thi
with other corruptions that had crept in
among other reasons, that the new Legisla
ture was established. If we are to have tn
old thing over again, it would be as well t
90 back to our eastern brethren" and a
least have a larger number of delegate
among whom to divide the responsibilitie
and larger number of taxpayers anon
whom to divide the expenses

Things Abroad.

The Africa's news has some salient points,
eliciting comments in some of the journals.
One of these points is, the acceptance OF
the Franco-Mexican crown by the Prince
Macmillan, only on the conditions-frst,
that the Mexican people, like Barkis, are
willing; and second, that the crown will be
guaranteed to him, after he has put it on
his head. If he wait till the first of these
conditions is complied with, some think it
will be long time before the coronation
will come off in the Halls of the Montezu-
mas As to the "guarantee"-if he could
get the free SURFACES of the Mexicans them
selves, he would not need,-but if he can
not, as he certainly will not, get them, a
hundred thousand bayonets at least will be
necessary to keep his throne propped up.

The SECESSION OF VIRGINIA.-In late
speech Governor Letcher, of Virginia
spoke at some length in regard to the posi-
ton of Virgia previous to the assembling
Of the State Convention. He opposed the
the assembling of that convention on &C
count of the dissension and patry division
in the northwest. The convention, how
ever. did assemble, but the State did not go
out by the action OF that boay-she went
out by his reply to Lincoln, when he tele-
graphed for troops. 1t was his refusal to
furnish Lidcoln with troops that carried
Virginia out of the old Union. When he
refused, that was direct separation. He
was told that he had no constitutional
authority to refuse this demand of Lincoln.
He knew that, but he looked to the eonven-
ton to give him authority. He had done
what no other had-he advocated secession,
square and fair, during the gubernatorial
campaign of 1859

Gen. SigeI.

EDITOR sTER:-Tbs gentleman,
high in office, military, commenced the
speech he made from the balcony of the
M'Lure House, on the evening of the l4th
inst, in these words, according to the re-
port of the htelligencer(; 81 came from far
away in the East, and in the West, where
I have been speaking for Curtin and
Brough." The inquiry is legitimate; and
suppose will not transcend the rights of a
citizen of this free Republic, by what au-
thority did he do this? and who gave him
this authority? The duties OF Major Gen
eral and the only duties of this high military
officer, and more especially in time
of war. are those of the
camp, and the field of disci-
pline and training. He is man, too,
though high in rank, still under authority
He must come and 60 at the bidding of his
General .in.chief 1t is plain, then, that
this good and brave Major General could
not have lefta the appropriate duties Of
his Office in the camp and field, without tie
consent and permission of him who is Com
mander.i n-C Chief of the U. S. Army. Can it be
DOS. bic that is was by and with the con-
sent and at the suggestion of the President
of the United States that Major General
is withdrawn from the proper functions of
his office, and responsibilities of his post
and that in time of great public trial and
inminent danger to our civil institutions,
from powerful, and menacing armed foe, to
take the field as stump orator and pOllti-
cal demagogue, to promote the purposes OF
party in securing an election? Is this the
purpose for which Major Generals are ap.
pointed and paid by the Government of the
United States Has the Communicating
Chief right to employ them at any time,
or under any circumstances, in this
way? Is it not a prostitution of the
office, perversion Of it, to wholly illegiti,
mate purposes, involving deriiction of du,
ty and criminal misuse of the power of of
flee on the part of our Chief Magistrate of
the most reprshensible character.

The CoNscRIPTIoN.-That the conscrip.
ton, as means of raising an army, has
been dead failure, is now universally ad-
mitted, but it must not be supposed that it
is without its use. An exchange says;
"The number of provost marshals, assist
ant provost marshals, clerks, aids, helps, en-
rolling officers, etc, engaged in carrying
out the CONSUMPTION act, is set down as
numbering altogether, we see, about 5000
The number of conscripts secured is esti-
mated at 10000. The ways soy it would
be better to draft that army, already under
pay, of $4,000 Office holders, and let the
conscripts GO They will have their joke.
