Special Correspondence TO the Register


WASHINGTON, Dec. u
The status of Berkeley and Jefferson
counties bids fair to create something Of
a sensation in Congress. As stated yes
terday. bills were introduced in both
Houses giving the consent of Congress to
the annexation of these counties to West
Virginia To-day the Speaker laid be-
fore the House q communication from
Governor Pierpeint inclosing copy Of
the Act of the General Assembly of Vir-
ginia withdrawing the consent of that
body to the cession of Berkeley and JEFF.
ferson counties. The whole matter was
referred to the Judiciary committee. The
representatives from West Virginia in
Congress are somewhat anxious on the
subject, and they, together with other
persons here from their State,are making
every effort to gain their point and defeat
the action taken at Richmond.
Postmaster General Dennison last
evening ordered number of important
postal changes. Knowing your readers
will be interested in those made in West
Virginia, l condense the following from
his list:

The question as to whether the South

considerable discussion in Congress to-
day, and much precious time was wasted
in the attempt to deny the Southern
States their rights in the Union -
The House resolution appointing a

Southern States, was slightly modified.

Especial correspondence of the Register
RICHMOND, Va, Dec, IL.
The Legislature has been in session for
week Almost the first thing that
was done, was the passage of law re-
pealing the law by which the counties of
Jefferson and Berkeley were to become
part of the State of West Virginia.
The law passed both Houses unani-
mously The amendment to the consti.
tuition restoring so their legal rights the
sons of the "Old Dominion" was passed
without difficulty, and the Chairman of
the Committee to whom was referred
the amendment to the constitution of
the United States reported back the
same, stating that the Alexandria Legis-
lature had acted upon the same, and
that no further action was deemed neces.
sary, which view was concurred in.
Saturday witnessed the revival of two
of the old newspapers Of this city, the
Examiner, whose name is stamped upon
the heart Of every lover of State rights,
as Calls" was craven upon the heart of

which for news and as all adverting me-
dunn cannot be excelled. The former is
edited by H. River Pollard, and the lat
ter is published by Cowardin d Ely
son. The business of the editor appears
to c.well paid, Judging from the number
of papers published in this city.
The Governors Message and that Of
the President were both well received;
but rs We have had our Delegates in Con
gress refused admission, we felt that we
were only slightly interested in the mes.

zeaiots of the North learn that love is
stronger than fear, and that the true way
of gaining the Southern heart is to
make them equals.
Thanksgiving day passed of very quiet

churches, and the attendance was small,

citizens felt that as nation they had but
few causes to be thankful. ALPS.

HENRY WINTER DAVIS, the most bril-
liant blackguard, most eloquent shoulder
hitter of the age, has written letter
which smacks sharply of the impeach-
ment with which some of the radicals
threaten the President. Able and learn
ed; vicious, insolert and plucky, with
the plausibility to conceal yet the vim
to execute, he is the most dangerous
rebel unhung
With him it is not enough that the
South shall accept the Constitutional
Amendment; that it shall annull all or
dinances of secession and separation:
that it shall repudiate all debts con-
tracted for the maintenance of the war
for independence; that it shall provide all
needful means for securing the care and
welfare of the negro that it shall return
conscientious and considsrate members
to Congress, and square itself TO the
measure of the Union. This and more
might be done without finding favor in
his eyes. To be plain, he has no conf
deilce whatever in any white person or
party in the South, and can see no hope
of preserving the power of the Republi.
can organization except through the ne
gro He is frank enough on this point
He says
The only alternatives are an dig.
archy of loyal whites, or an aristooracy
ofhostils whites. The one is loyal, but
is not republican; the other is neither
loyal nor republican. The former Presi-
dent Lincoln organized in Virginia and
Louisiana; the President is organizing
under his proclamations the latter. The
legal effect of their recognition Is to re-
store the State governments to those
whom we have just expelled from them,
to subject the emancipated negroes to the
discriminating legislation of their mas
tiers, to continue their domination over
the loyal minority to guarantee to them
the right to represent, now three-6fths,
and at the next census the whole, of the
disfranchised negroes; aud to admit to
Congress votes enough to compel equali-
ty, at the peril of anarchy, between 10y
atty and disloyalty. They were our
armed enemies when Lee surrendered;
they are now our disarmed enemies
They are now for independence and
slavefy and against union and freedom;
they acquiesce In both till time or disas-
ter gives them opportunity to realize
their hopes, and till then their interest
and purpose are to obliterate every dis.
tinction between those who rebelled, and
those who put down the rebellion In
all the South the only mass of the popu-
latien interested and able to foil these
designs is the negroes whom the Presi,
dent has disfranchised." .
Further on, he says, still referring to
the President:
Eve remember his declaration that
traitors should be punished, yet none are
punished; that only loyal men should
control the States, yet he has delivered
them to the ldisloyal; that the aristocracy
should be pulled down, yet he has put it
in power again; that its possessions
should be divided among Northern la
borers of all colors, yet the negroes are
still landless, homeless class; that he
was opposed to military commissions, vet
they still defiie the land, and others for
,..h;gher victims are said to be in prepare
