THs PRESIDENT AND WEST vlRoIyIA.

mn EhHSlDbNT AND WEST VIRGINIA.
President LiucoIu's reasons for si0niny
the bill admitting West Virginia into the
Union were as follows.
l. That it was the correct policy of the
Administration to secure as much free ter
ritory AS possible. and with as little trouble.
2. That as the Wheeling Legislature had
been recognized by Congress as the Lcgis-
iatnre OF the State OF Virginia, that body
had the authority to adopt measures look
ing TO the division of the State; that the re.
sponsibtlity did not lie with those who Vo-
ted for the measure. more than with those
who did not vote against it, viz: the inhab.
tHnts OF the Eastern portion of the State.
}. And the principal reason, that he was
bound to take care Of his friends.
We presume that the correspondent who
discovered these very luminous and salts.
factory reasons, is the same one who turned
out to he such an egregrious know moth
ing" the other day, in the matter of the
veto. President Lincoln signed the West
Virginia bill because it was every way con
stitutiONal aud right, and for no other rea-
sou lie never gave any other reasons to
those who had most to say to him on the
subject, and it is not likely that he conae-
scended to assign any different or addition
al ones to the wonderful correspondent Of
the New York Times.

many have fed to the North. There are
many who bold a neutral ground aud who

Confederate scrip of all kinds, is more
