VIEWS OF NORFOLK INDoRsED.-The Rich-
mond Enquirer says:
The citizens of Norfolk, as appears by their
proceedings in another column, are among
those who think it both manly and wise to
be frank; and to hold their honor, and to place
their essential interests, above question. They
accept the Philadelphia Convention, with the
understanding that it is movement to unite
the Conservatism Of the country, in opposi-
ton to Radical violence and revolution, in
support Of the President, and to secure the
restoration of the Union on the basis of the
Constitution They declare that we should
send to it "our abest, wisest and most dis
Greet representative men," And they protest
distinctly and pointedly against the test cath
which turks in the call, as not to be connie
nanced by us without decentralization, hui
initiation and disgrace"
That is what Virginians feel, and that is
the way for Virginians to talkl We are proud
of our Norfolk fellow citizens

time there was severe squall of wind, which
blew strongly from the northward, accom-

moderated, and we had a refreshing shower
till a late hour in the evening, cooling the at

and the rain ceased to fall. Two or three
