our authorities the danger to which the
city is exposed in case the cholera
should extend its ravages in this direc.
ton during the coming spring, which is
by no means an improbable event
Norfolk is in most. inviting condi-
tion-and We see no prospects of the in

something is done to guard against its
approach, we may expect TO witness the
same terrible destruction of life that has
recently attended its unexpected visit in
the West Indies, where the Inhabitants
of the filthy town of Guadalupe suffer-
ed SO severely through their neglect of
proper sanitary precautions. Measures
of prevention are being fully discussed
in all the other Atlantic cities. and "a
Norfolk is more exposed than any other

her authorities amounts to criminality.

TROUBLE IN OLD VIRGINIA.
From the New York Herald.]

We published despatch yesterday,
from our Richmond correspondent an
nouncing that "a member from Vir-
lginia, now awaiting admission into
Congress, telegraped here last night (the
GATH that it was the purpose of the Pre-
silent to place Virginia under provi-
sional government" that various sur
misses are afioat as to the causen of this
| movement, bnt that it seems to be most
generally attributed to the persistent pol
icy pursued by the state Legislature of
choosing notorious rebels as state off,
GERS, and systematcall ostracizing other
men distinguished for their loyal senti-
ments during the war. and whose cleo
ton would be gratifying to the govern.
ment at Washington. Our correspon-
dent remarks that, whatever may be
said regarding the peculiar political pre-
objections of the present General As
sembly of Virginia, q more selfish and
less patriotic body never disgraced the
state;n that, with the exception of
two or three members, scarcely shred
of compromising spirit is visible ~ that
the two houses legislate with peculiar
reference to ther domestic interests, ut
terly regardless of what the state may
suffer from their indiscretions," and
state of provisional dependency may
awaken these worthless into an acquies-
cence in some measures looking to the
good of the state"
We presume that the "admonition'
indicated is the extent OF President
Johnson's action and purpose in the
premises, and that his object is, not only
to remind the Virginia Legislature and
state authorities that there are at least
two sides to every bargain, but that mag
nanimity and confidence on the one side
must be met by a corresponding exhibi.
ton of honesty and good faith on the
other. Empty professions of admira-
ton by southern politicians and news
papers of President Johnson's liberal
policy of restoration will not suffice.
The acts of southern Governors, Legis-
latures and state officers must CORES
pond with their fine professions, other
wise their promises are worth no more
than those of our republican members OF
Congress, who speak for the Presidents
policy aud vote for that of Thaddeus
Stevens. The local authorities of the
southern states must prove their profess
sions of faith by their works. Unless
they assist the President in his efforts |
to establish their fitness for immediate
readmission into Congress they must |
expect to be called to account. AS be- |
fore the war, the pernicious southern
free eaters are making capital for the |
northern radicals, while sensible and |
patriotic men, North and South, in sup
porting the Presidents plans, are labor
ing to cast out both these disorganizing |

They arrested several gentlemen, who

that his coat was any dilapidated Con-
