Late Elections lLe In virginia.

The following is the notice from Gov.
Peirpoint referred toin the dispatches
yesterday: 5a4.-....if g.4e
To the Justices ofMe County Courts Of
GESTLEMEN: desire to call your at
tention to the second paragraph of the
third article of the State Constitution,
which is in the following words:
mo person shall vote or hold Office
under this constitution who has held
Office under the so-called Confederate
Government, or any rebellious State
Government, or who has been n mem
Der of the so-called Confederate Con-
gress, or II member of any State Legis-
luturc in rebellion against the authority
of the United States, excepting there
from county officers"
/ hive reliable information TINT in n
number of counties in the State per-
sons have been elected to the offices of
Commonwealth's Attorney, Sheriff,
Commissioner of Revenue, and Clerk
of Court, and in Some instances JUS
tice of the Peace, who are disqualified
by the clause of the constitution above
quoted, and who have not been relieved
by acts of the General Assembly.
Whenever it has come to the knowl-
edge of the Executive that a person
elected as n Justice of the Peace labors
under the disability referred to-, COM
mission has been refused. You will
also take care that no Justice to whom
a commission has been issued, and who
is disqualified under tho snid clause, be
permitted to qualify, and You will fur
ther take care that no person so disqual-
ified, who has been elected to the offices
above referred to, shall qualify or enter
upon their duties. 4a t-
You will consider all offices above re-
ferred to, to which persons so disquali-
fed shall have been elected, vacant,
and order elections Immediately to fill
such vacancies. f.... b..
Judges of the Circuit Courts will OBJ
serve this order in organizing their re-
spectiVe courts. al i-.-
1 take it for granted that this seeming
disrespect for the constitution has
arisen from n want of proper considera-
ton. / am 10th to believe that it has
been done in any instance through any
disrespect for the constitution and laws
of the State, but 1 feel it incumbent on
me to see that the organic law of the
State is enforced. ,fT.. =rg
In the elections to fill vacancies you
will be guided by the provisioni of the
