Ex-Governor Letcher on Southern Affairs
Plea for Peace

Ex Governor LErcuEH of Virginia, dcliv-
cred an address ut Lexington, Va, on the oc
casion of the rcinaugumtion of the statue of
Washington, at the Virginia Military Insti-
tute, in the course of which he said
The Southern people regard the question
ut issue as settled and forever settled. They
accept the result, aud are prepared to abide by
it in good faith They pledge an honor that
is untarnshcd, and when brave men and hon.
est men give such a pledge, who can hesitate
to believe that their pledge will be redeemed
to the letter?
No governments can endure which does not
rcst upon the affections vi its people. y
wso, just. tolerant, upright administration OF
public affairs will win back the affections Of
the South and cntwine them around the pillars
that uphold the Union as the " casping ivy"
cncirclcs the majestic oak. Kindness hegcts
Kindness confidence inspires confidence ;
charity aud tolerance generates love and ailrc-
ton Let all these cnnoblng virtues hc cul
tivatcd aud encouraged. If the scenes of
the last four years cannot be forgotten by
either side, let them be at least forgiven and
passed by in solemn, di.niGcd silence Jet
each side cease to remind tho other of the dis
agreeable incidents that occurred during that
sud but cvcntlui period.
Let u.s. then, be of good cheer. Let no
one be dishcartcncd or discouraged We must
all do our duty in faithful, independent and
manly way, and then We may reasonably an
ticipate bright and happy future for our.
selves, our postcrity and our country.
1t should be the policy Of al. I, inculcatc a
spirit of concord, and so act each to the other MS
to advance the common interest Of ALL We
should do everything in our power to secure
the prosperity Of the nation, Augment its
wealth, develop ita boun,llpSs mineral and 9th,
cr +" ourccs, arouse up its dormant energies,
mu.uplying its channels OF intcrcommnnica,
ton, encourage aaricultural mechanical and
manufacturing industry. This is due to our
selves as well rs those who are to come after
us, and who lonk to us ior the adoption of II
policy that will place them before the world in
the most advantageous position. let Us deal
candidly, fairly, honestly, Justly aud charita-
bly, one with another, and then, knccling
around the alter of common country. let Il
united prayer ascend to Heaven g God bless

Court.

The Court of Sessions for Pickcns District,
convened at this place on Monday last, His
Honor Judge MUNRO, presiding. His Honor
dispatches business in quiet, pleasant man
ner, and much to the satisfaction Of those prcs.
cnt generally.
Monday and Tuesday were occupied by un
important matters, save that of rule against
the Clerk for not dockcting the civil cases
Col. NoRToN insisted that the rule should be
made absolute, and that the recent law of the
Legislature OH this subject was unconstitu-
tlonal. Gen. HASKELL spoke TO the same
point. Gen. McGowAN defended the action
of tho Clerk. Judge MUNRO discharged the
rule. The case will go to the Court of Errors.
On wednesday morning, the case of the
State against LoopER and three of the Dur
HAMS, for the murder of Col. Miller, of N.
c., was commenced. The State consumed
the day hearing evidence for the prosecution.
Thursday was spent in like manner for the
prisoners. The case is still und$posed of as
we so to press.
All tho capital cases cannot, for want of
time, DC disposed of this week. We presume
an extra Court will be ordered to clear tho
Sessions docket
Ex'uoy. PERRY, Gen. MCGOWAN. Gen.
HARRISON, Gen. EAsLEY, aud Gen. HAS
KEIi, are present from neighboring Districts
The weather has been fine, the crowd of
persons present large, and their dcmcanor
better than we have ever before witnessed.
