RICHMOND, Va, Feb. s. 1885,
This is glum town, just now. Many
people live on hate-taking pleasure in
the effort ofthinking that their friends are
their enemies others live on past memo
ries; others, again, by their wits. I'm
derlying all this-behind the drawn cur
tain-there is something of a revolution
of thought going on, coming to the be-
lief, sort of feeling that ''this won't
do" realization that there is not much
punishment in rage and red pepper.
The wheel is not turning very fast; but
1t is turning; and with little more mo-
tive power. the people may, in three
months, gain all that they have lost in
half year Of the confidence of the gov
eminent. Six months ago, the nation
was ready to receive Virginia with
open arms; now, blast from Stevenss
bugle, and even Raymond votes with the
radicals" 1t is impossible to say what
the business and sensible men of this
city will do; it is not, however, so diff.
cult to interpret their thoughts. They
are very tired of the jargon and clatter
Of "the fine writers"-tbe busy set who

builders-little prose warblers in ''our

nisms are mainly addressed to maidens.
Ridicule and falsehood are transitory
forces. Men, who are just now deferred
by a ribald press, will soon rise, amazed
that they had not before done so, and
confront this wasp and crush it. They
will do it-wait and see.

Knapp, one of the proprietors of the st.
Louis Republican, were arrested in New
York oil Friday on warrant issued by
Judge Bowling, on the complaint of A.

on certain allegations which appeared in

MORE BACKBONE.

We believe there is strong elem ent
of real loyalty in Virginia-we mean
that loyalty which loves the Union for
its own sake, and not through fear, in
terest or some other equally unworthy
motive; but it isso unpopulart to be con-
sidered a Union man that our real 10y
alists lack the courage to publicly pro-
claim their sentiments, and are content
to suffer in silence the blatant and boast
full jargon of the enemies of the Union,
who, while they agree that they must
give an outward and visible sign of
loyalty, take no pains to conceal their
hatred to the country and the flag.
Why cannot the latent Unionism be as
bold and outspoken as this blatant anti
American spirit, and undisguised de-
testation of the Union? We would
like to see little more backbone in the
real friends of the Union. They should
not permit themselves to be ow-beaten
by the enemies of their country, but
come boldly out and manfully- proclaim
their principles, and stand or fall by
them. They must be positive and not
negative. Their enemies need only to
be honestly confronted to be put to
flight; and certainly the Union men OF
Virginia have right and patriotism on
their side, and in contest with those
who hate their country they need have
no fears of defeat The leading Union
men of the State owe it to the. more
humble class who are disposed to render
honest homage to the flag, to take de-
termined stand and encourage and foster
the real Union sentiments of those who
would be treasured by their example.
