: Without special effort, the young State
OF West Virginia has again triumphed
over the combined Johnsonites Of all
shades, and renews her faith TO the
Union cause by an overwhelming ma
jority at her election, the vote being as
large as In the Presidential strIrTie.
This assures the choice OF Legisla atnre
that will ratify the proposed amend-
ment to the National Constitution. and
inimical to the Richmond intriHues for
restoration to Virginia. The faith Of
her Union Senators will be estrengthened
by this election, and emigration thither
from the North and from Europe viii
receive fresh encouragement. Much OF
the present population of that region
came from Pennsylvania and Ohio; and
now that the future Of the State is as
sured beyond a preadventure, we doubt
not that Northern men will be stinu-
lated to renewed enterprises there. Nc
portion of the Union Is richer in min
eral resources than West Virginia, and
