UNCONSTITUTIONAL. - The Express of
yesterday, true to its vocation, publishes
the opinion of Judge Woodward, defeat
ed candidate for Governor of Pennsylva-
MIA at the late election, pronouncing the
Consumption Act as unconstitutional.
Every law for the preservation of the gov
eminent is unconstitutional with Copper
head judges. What weight has Wood
wards opinion in this State with loyal
menu Who respects a Copperhead's
opinion on any subject relating to the
war: Who cares how many opinions
such men writes Such judges are vast
ing the paper they write their sophistries
on, and the use we see for them they af-
ford good record of the authors disloy-
atty. We would prefer a Hottentot's
opinion opinion before Copperhead's on
the Constitutionality of any law framed
by Congress with a view to the war.
These judges are in state of mind to pass
upon Confederate laws, but not upon
those enacted by our Congress. A judge
false to his country cannot be true to the
laws. Thank God these tools of the con-
spirators are passing out of Office
MarysuiHe Appeal.

An Episode of the Convention.

The following extract from the proceed
ings of the State Convention, as reported
for the Enterprise, is what \. Ward, Esq,
would term "a epiSoad." We quote it for
the delectation of those who look upon
the Union, as the embodiment of all poit-
ical purity:
Mr.. Sherman spoke few moments in ia
vor of the admission Of the boilers.
Mr.. Baldwin said he was amazed that that
gentleman there Mr.. Fitch, should pre-
sumo to talk about soldiers of fortune. If
there was one man in Nevada who ought to
keep silent on the subject of soldiers Of for
tune, it was that gentleman there meaning
Mr.. Fitch. 1Ir. Baldwin went on vehement
" to give his views concerning the action of
two hundred diSaffected citizens in attempt
ing to overthrow that of a Convention
elected by three thousand voters Of Storey
county-during which he was voeiferously
applauded. He made several charges Of a
personal nature against Mr.. Fitch.
Mr.. Hite said they were untrue
Mr.. Baldwin" We will settle that here
after, sir" He then made other personal
charges, which were also said to be untrue
BY Mr.. Fitch. [Sensation.
Mr.. Hanson said Mr.. Fitch had told him
that if Baldwin, himself and oilers would
withdraw their opposition to him as a candi-
date for Attorney General he would give them
the benefit Of the influence Of the Virginia
Crsion.
Dir. Fitch said it did not occur in that
shape. Mr.. Hanson came to him and said II
he would WELD the Virginia Union in suita-
bic maLner, the gentleman named would
epyporf hin, Acknowledgement He fold
Mr.. Hanson that if Stewart and Baldwin
would sign bond for $4,000 to keep their
word, he might entertain the proposition.
Mr.. Baldwin-The gentleman eonfesses the
charge!
Mr.. Fitch-The gentleman does nothing
of the kind. / made the remark in a joking
manner to Mr.. Hanson.
Mr.. Baldwin body knows that
when little Office is to be had, or little
money made, Tom Fitch never jokes
IGreat laughter and applause.l

it anything but complimentary to his emf

VIRGINIA, STOREY COUNTY, NEVADA
Y Territory, Dec l6, le63-The Practical
Printers Of Virginia, Gold Hill, Carson, Washoe
City, Esmcralda Reese River, Humboldt and
throughout the Territory, feeling that they have
interests of vital importance involved In the COM
ing election of officers for the future State Of Ne
yada, have adopted this means of making known
their wishes and intentions concerning the office
of STATE PRINTER-a most responsible posi-
ton, and one to which none but truly compe'
tent Printer and loyal man should be elected.
The Office Of State Printer, In dishonorable hands
may be used as powerful political engine, and
prostituted to nefarous schemes by tricksters and
charatans For this reason, il no other, the quail
ihcations of the nominee for this Office should be
thoroughly understood, politically and profession
ally; and the mere fact that candidate publishes
n newspaper should not be accepted as positive
evidence of his professional ability, neither should
that circumstance be taken rs indubitable proof
Of his sound loyalty More especially will the In.
FAINT State Of Nevada require II MIN of integrity
and efficiency to discharge the duties incumbent
upon the office of State Printer during the first
years of its existence. The revision and reprint.
ing of old Territorial laws, the adoption of new
ones, and the multitudnous calls upon that officer
which the formation Of new State Involves,
make ii imperative that the first Printer Of the
new State of Nevada, more than any succeeding
one, should be man Of unquestionable loyalty,
and one whose professional requirements are Of
tne nlgneSt OrucT-l Hl;lll vi integrity Hut aDlIlIy
Such u man we would see elected, aud therefore
respectfully present for your consideration the
name of
GEORGE W. BLOOR,
of Virginia,
gentleman in whom all followers Of the Fart
preventative" in this Territory have the most i'm.
plict confidence; and VIC most respectfully re.
quest the cooperation Of our fellow citizens In as
sisting MS TO elect him TO that office.
