Here we have one who was generously
nominated as Vice President by men who
believed he could be trusted as the custodian
OF their own hopes and the d~estinies Of their
country, accidentally elevated TO the position
of President, by what now proves to have been
a catastrophe Of endless woe, despotically
defying the heartfelt prayers and expectations
Of the American people-a man who relies
alone upon the power and the patronage OF
the Federal Government, not to protect the
adhering, self sacrificing State Governments,
but to haze the States lately in rebellion restored
TO their full constitutional relations to the Union. :

weeks of d~istrust, for precisely such q
catastrophe as has now befallen them, 10 in.

Convinced that there is nothing more to be
hoped from the President of the United States,

upon his best and most devoted friends, they

Additional by the MOrayian.

The address of the French Senate in reply to
the Emperor's speech expresses satisfaction
that the mission of the French troops to
Mexico approaches completion, and says the
firm communication made by the Emperor TO
the United States has demonstrated that
naughty and menacing language will not
cause France to withdraw. France is accus-
toned to move only at her own time. But she
nevertheless wishes to remember ancient
friendship with America. What is asked OF
the United States is neutrality and observance
of international law.
Queen Victoria opened Parliament In person
on the 9Th. She opens by announcing the APP
preaching marriage of the Princess Helena,
and regretting the death of the Kim OF the
Belgians. She says foreign relations are salts
factory, and the recent meetings of the French
and English fleets tende to confirm the exist
ing friendship. She ~rejoices that the Ameri-
can civil war has been successfully terminated
and that people are wisely repairing ravages'
The abolition Of slavery calls forth her cor
dial sympathy and congratulations. 1t is also
satisfactory to state that the slave trade on the
African coast has been reduced to very narrow
limits. The correspondence relative to the

A Lost Archiye.

In the report of the proceedings OF Inc
Senate-to be seen in another VIII
be found tina a joint resolution has passed
the Assembly authorizing the city OF VIII
liamsburg to send to London for a certified
COPY Of it's lost charter. The original one was
granted by their gracious Majesties King
William and Mary, and bore their royal seal.
1t was dated about l69S, the time Of the aban-
donment of the Jamestown colony, and the
removal of the seat Of government to Viii
liamsburg, (which was amore healthy place,
and not so much pestered with muschetoes."
1t had been carefully preserved in Williams
burg not merely as a relic, but rs a part OF the
history of the venerable town. 1t was re-
moved by General WISE in April, 1853, ana
brought to Richmond, and deposited In the
State Court. House for safe keeping, where IL
was destroyed in the great confiagration OF the
Sd of April.
The application will be made, probably, to the
Master of the Rolls, and a certified 0 Will DE
obtained, but it will never seem TO the WI
liamsburg folks like the dear old parchment
now ashes among the ashes Of the courthouse.

The Valley Railroad.

The long con bill to incorporate the
Valley railroad passed the Senate on yesterday
amended by the GILMER proviso, which ior-
bids the completion of the road Ito a point
nearer than twenty miles from the 'lrgihla
and Tennessee railroad until one year after the
Coyington and Ohio railroad shall be COM
pleted."
This is a most important amendment, ana
one which should be regarded as a compro-
mise. The friends of the bill said that the
people of the Valley claimed the road as q
right. and would consider any attempt TO
deprive them Of the privilege Of constructing
q road TO carry their produce to the best mar
ket MS unfriendly and unjust. On the other
hand, it was held in Tidewater Virginia tnat
the building of a road tapping the N~irginiaand
Tonnes see railroad and directing the course OF
freight from the Virginia seaboard to the
MARYLAND seaboard would be utterly fatal to
the commercial hopes of the State.
This provision removes every source OF dill
culty. The people of the Valley have all they
want. 1t could do them no good TO unite
their road to the Virginia and Ten nessee rail-
road, but it would draw away the life blood
from the eastern portion of the State, TO feea
the growing wealth of a city already power
ful This feature takes ont the fangs. The
road now NAV benefit the Valley, but cannot
vitality affect the East. After the Covington
and Ohio railroad shall have been completed
one wear, and is able 10 protect itself AFTER
the current Of trade has set in the proper
direction, then the road may be extended TO
the Virginia and Tennessee railroad, and both
be placed on a fair footing.
1t is a matter Of sincere congratulatlon that
the harmonious termination of this business
has removed even the semblance OF a source Oh
discord existing between the people OF TIDE
water and their brethren of the Valley, VINO
are the same flesh and blood, endeared py
living friendship and an inseparable history.

JOHN F. LEwIs-HIs TEsTIMoSY.-Mr. John
T. Lewis, of Rockingham, la Union man
lately defeated for Congressl was summoned
to give testimony before the Reconstruction
Committee. When asked, "If the people in

/" Yes, as loyal as the members Of he Reconstructt2n

it would be safe for a Northern man to travel
through his section % He replied, "Perfectty
safe, unless there should happen to be a Yankee
soldier there, aoho might knock him IN the head 10
rob him" This is just the kind of testimony
which those who know the character of Mr..
John f. Lewis would expect him to give.
Many men, and we fear most men, who had
been defeated for Office as Mr.. John (. Lewis
has been, and whose brother had also been
defeated, as his had been, would have been pre-

testimony warped, and would not have done
