REORGANIZATION.

Tbs people Of Virginia feel natural i'm
patience TOR the restoration Of civil law and
government throughout the State, and are
eagerly awaiting the development of Cover
nor Peirpoint's plans. Since his arrival IN
the capitol, the Governor has been chiefly
occupied in receiving visitors, and comforting
with delegations Of prominent citizens from
different sections Of the Commonwealth
He will give due consideration to the views
presented by these gentlemen, and avail
himself Of any useful suggestion which they
may have submitted.
The difficulties presented AID questions
involved in the work Of rehabilitation are
complicated enough TO justify the delibera
ton with which they are treated BY the Co.
vernon. It would be extremely unfortunate
were he TO take any important step in
wrong direction, and, therefore he will pro-
coed cautiously with the task before him,
and when ne has determined upon the course
TO be pursued, he will announce q mature
and vel, digested plan Of reorganization.
