RICHMOND VIEWS OF CONGRESSIONAL Z
MArrERs.- Richmond Wing advises
the Representatives elect from Virginia to
stay nt home until invited to take their seats
in Congress, and in relation to the test cath
saws: woo unto those that take the oath;
bettor had they never been born"
We have thought for some time past that
the representatives elect to Congress from
the rebel States would show proper sense of
the "ftness of things If they would remain
at home until invited to Washington to take
their seats. 1t would save expense, at any
rnte. From present appearances, none OF
them arc likely to get in and need not fear
tho ''woe" to which tho Wig consgns any
who may take the oath BY the way, the
editor Of the Wing was supported for n seat
in Congress because he cOWId take the oath.

the life Of any other man. A corporals
guard would do as we'll Indeed, corpo-
rails guard nor any other guard is prodf
against the assassin when his arm is nerved
and his head is clear.
1t Is the purpose of the President to bring
back the Government to civil rulo. Then
we hope, with nine tenths of the loyal people
of this country, that he will as carly as pos.
siblo, with a single stroke of his pen, abolish
the detective force now In existence.
Espionage, in times of peace, is disgrace
to any nation. We are not only now at
pence with ourselves but with all the world.
A spy may be seen at every corner of the
street in France, but he should only be seen
in America after this, to be put under the
ban unless properly employed by the civil
and subordinate branches of the Govern
ment for the detection of counterfeiters, or
other criminals for civil court trials.
Espionage is incompatible with n rcpubIi-
can form of government. Our Government
was never so republican in form-was never
so we'll able to protect itself-was never so
highly respected abroad-was never so rich
In resources-was never so we'll fortified
against rebellion mt home or foreign invu-
sion, and was never more powerful on the
soa than now Then abolish the weapon of
tyrnnts, and let us return to the good old
times, trusting in the fidelity of our munich
palities and the common glory Of our nation
ality, as reflected through the Executive, the
Legislative, and Judicial branches of the
Government.

IT IS rumored that the contract upon
which Miss Hetty II. Robinson bases her
claim to the estate left by her late aunt, yl-
via Ann Rowland, is, that each party should
make n will essentially in favor Of the other.
Whether said contract is in writing, or
merely n parole agreement, has not trans
PRED But it is in the air that in pursuance
of its term each party actually made a will.
Whether such wills are in existence, rumor
does not say yet. If there were written
contract for the making Of mutual wills, and
1t be provable that such wills were actually
made, new question certainly is presented
to the courts on this side OF the watOr.-Neu
