The Legislature of West Virginia
has of late been trying to get ahead
of that of Tennessee, in the way of
radical and anti-republican enact
ments, and has passed q law imposing
pains and penalties upon all who have
the audacity to call in question the
constitutionality of any Of their laws.
This is about on Il par with the per-
formances of the rascally Roman En-
peror who wrote his cdicts in very
small letters and posted them up SO
high that nobody could read them,
and at the same time imposed pains
and penalties upon those who violated
them. The West Virginia tyrants
make laws which they know are I'M
worthy of popular respect, and then
punish people for not respecting
them. Cannot these wretches see
that the public patience. strained to
too great q tension, must ultimately
give way and whelm them and their
iniquitous edicts in one common
ruin ?-LouiSrWe CnWier.

THE CASE OF RAPHAEL SEMMEs. -
The Washington correspondent of
the Boston Post, writing on the 9th,
says:
81 learn Of Secretary Fox at the
Navy Department, this morning, that
that Department knows nothing of
the anticipated release Of Raphael
Semmes, of the Alabama noto-
riety. Neither the Secretary nor his
assistant are at all willing that the
indictments of the redoubtable rebel
Captain should be CRASHED without
even bringing them before q Court.
Nevertheless, people who frequent
the White House to an extent that
gives their utterances something of
an official character, assert that
Semmes will be pardoned, within q
day or two, and allowed to depart
home"

The EQUIPPING- PROCLAMATION
TO BE ISSUED. Washington cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Gazette,
states that one house in New York
has sold for cash 10000 military caps
and 1000 revolvers to the Sweeney
Fenians. A movement of the Fenians
seems to be apprehended at Washing
ton. The correspondent of the Gin
cinnati Commercial telegraphs that
paper as follows:
"It is the general belief, to-day, that
the Secretary of State, under the
direction Of the President, will this
week issue % proclamation relative to
the Fenian movements in this coun-
try. Troops have been ordered to
exposed and prominents points on
the Canadian frontier"
The United States Supreme Court
has now before it for argument the
cases of DR.. Cummings, a Catholic
priest, who was indicted and convict
ed by the Circuit Court for Pike
County, Missouri, of performing the
duties CT his calling without taking
the oath prescribed by the second
article of the new Constitution of the
State, Il. i fined 5000, with imprison-
ment rAtil paid, and that of Mr..
Garesche, a lawyer, who was excluded
from the practice of his profession
because he would not take the oath.
The judgment in DR.. Cummings case
having been affirmed by the State
Supreme Court, both cases were
brought up on writ of error to the

SPOKEN LIKE A HERo.-A literary
gentleman, who is engaged in writing
a book on some events in the war, in
which Mosby was concerned, has re-
Gently had some correspondence with
that noted parsonage, and short
time ago inquired of him if it would
be safe for ga Black Republican-one
dyed in the wool'-so he described
himself-to make at the present time
a horseback journey through Vir-
ginia. In reply, that famous rough
rider writes the gentleman as follows:
eff you have any desire to visit
the historic scenes of Virginia, L hope
you will not be deferred by any APP
prehension for your personal safety.
You will be just as safe from molesta-
tion here as in the streets of Boston.
Should you determine to visit North
era Virginia, would be glad to see
you at my home; and l can at least
promise that you will not find me the
monsh'uDa ho77endum of the Northern
imagination. -the-by, one Of the
regiments most frequently encoun-
tered was from Boston-the ID Mas
sachusetts, Col. Lowell. [ once met
a detachment of it under command Of
Maj. Forbes, of Boston; and although
our encounter resulted in his over
throw, he bore himself with conspi-
cuous gallantry, and | saw him wound
one of my best men with his sabre. L
also had aE interview with Capt.
Barton, of Massachusetts,, who served
on Gen. Eustace's staff, and interest
ed myself to procure his exchange.

to extend to you any facility in my
power for seeing places of interest,

The coming generations of the
North will be proud to point to the
pages of history that will tell of the
heroism Of the South in the great
war between the sections; and, we
believe that, at the present day, the
Northern masses are, in the inmost
recesses of their hearts, ready to ap-
plaud the prowess Of their late adver-
saries, and to give them inches in the
temple of fame beside the monuments
of their comrades.
But let us not suppose that this
stubborn armor of pride and courage
is impenetrable. Let lis not believe
that this vitality of intellectual and
moral force can withstand all manner
of assault and every kind of burden.
There is limit to endurance, and
that limit passed, the spirit is crushed,
the strong will yields, and the strong
arm becomes neryeless. A people
thus prostrated are worthless to their
country, and in time become only fit
to be trampled upon and used by
factious demagogues and tyrants.

DECLINE IN THE PRICE OF REAL
ESTATE. E.-The real estate sales in New
York, on Monday, were ellattended,
but sellers confess to disappoint-
ment, both as regards the readiness
to purchase and the prices realized.
Some very choice lots on Madison
Avenue brought an average of SIS, 500,
whereas S., 900 was refused for them
less than three months ago. Lots in
other parts of the city show cores
ponding falling off. This decline in
vacant lots, however, has no visible
influence as yet on house rents, which
are as exhorbitant as ever.

SECRETARY McCU1LocH's POSITION.
Secretary McCulloch has written a
letter to several leading Republican
Congressman, in which he says he
feels much anxiety about the politi-
cal situation, and very much desires
that something shall be done to re-
store harmony between the Govern
mentsand the Southern States. He
thinks that one step in this direction
would result from a free and full con-
fere1 ce between the leading Northern
men and the leading Southern men
now in this city. He suggests that
the persons to whom his note is ad-
dressed invite Governor Parsons
among others.

Prospects in tn. Pee Dee Country.

Prospects ia the Pee Dee Country.
We are gratifed to observe that the
Georgetown Times records some glin-
merings of the sober second thought
on the part of the freedmen in that
region of country, where their labor
is so valuable. The Times thinks that
e visible Improvement IS manifest
since Ia visit of Gen. Scott to that
section, and the editor, having visited
several plantations, witnessed cheer
fulness and alacrity that was surpris-
ing and gratifying.
This is gratifying news from re-
gion where the chief cultivation is
that of rice, and where it has hereto
fore been considered too unhealthy
for white labor. The editor of the
Times is, however, of opinion that the
rice fields can be cultivated by white
labor. The rice lands, fortunately,
extend along the coast, Oh are in close
proximity to the pine-land ridges,
where settlements can be built close
to the daily work. We are afraid,
however, that it will be difficult to
induce white labor to emigrate to
section which has been generally re-
garded rs detrimental to the health of
the whites, while the negro works
and grows sleek and fat We think,
therefore, the chief reliance of the
rice planters for labor, at least for
time, must be on that of the freed
men, who, we trust, will fulfill the
promise of industry they now evi-
dence on the plantations.
