Filibusters. .
BURR LKsKE.

Who are filibusters? Lopez, Walker,
Maximilian ? Then why not go little
higher? What was Christopher Columbus!
What was Cortez and Pizarro, the Pilgrim
Fathers, William the Conqueror, and Julius
Cesar? All these invaded and seized by
force already inhabited countries, and, with
out any cause of quarrel, drove out or butch
cred and enslavcd the original people. But
it is held that the difference is due to rela-
tive Civilization that Columbus and the rest
are not in the category, because they brought
the Gospel and the art of roasting heretics
to the savage tribes. If this be the test,
where was there ever nation that so 1usti-
fed filibustering as Mexicoi Where is there
q people that has greater need of civilization
and The Christian graces, including the
roasting? The truth is, the test is success,
If any one shall succeed in the conquest OF
Mexico he will not be filibuster, but he
ro. 1t is the same with filibustering as Will
treason.
Treason does never prosper what's he reasons
Why when it prespers none dare call ittreason.
Prosperous filibustering is the introduc
tion of civilization.

Reconstruction i'm virginia.

The Old Dominion is at length moving in
the right direction. The meeting of citizens
CORNER Wings and Democrats)at Charlottes-
vile, Albemarle county, at which delegates
were elected to the Republican Convention
at Richmond, on the lst of August next, was
followed by similar gathering Of "numer-
ous influential citizens" at Louisa Court
House, where resolutions were adopted ad-
yising cooperation with the Republican
party, and ''pledging the meeting to vote for
the Republican candidate for the Preslden-
cy, and for members of Congress from Vir-
ginia, who have an unbroken Union record. !"
Delegates to the Richmond Republican Con-
vention were also elected at this asscmblage,
as they have been at similar meetings, of the
more respectable citizens, in half dozen
counties, as reported in the Richmond Wing,
which is doing good service in advocating
corporation with the Republican party. The
last meeting reported is that in Rappahan-
mock county, on Friday, at which the Re
publican platform was adopted and delegates
sent to the August convention in Richmond.
Hon. Thos. s. F. Flournoy and Hon. VIM.
M. Tredway, both ex-members of Congress,
participated in the meeting. Among othel
public men in Virginia who are advocating

Power OF the RepuDIcan Farty.
The Richmond Wig of Saturday defends
the action of the recent meeting at Charlottes-
Vile, In an article of which the followingis
an extract - Hsts
What is the Republican party? 1t repre-
sents and wields the whole power OF the Gov
ernment. II is, to all intents and purposes,
the Government. To oppose 1t is to oppose
the Government. There is no other party
deserving the name in the United States. -
There is q feeble faction called the Demo-
cratic party, that cares for itself and nothing
else. This moment it would rejoice to see
the South still further crushed and lacerated,
If thereby 1t could prevail against the Repub-
lcan party. There are still persons who talk
about Its fidelity to the South, when every
one who knows anything knows that 1t has
rendered to the South no other service than a
hpyocritical lip service. 1t melted us to war
under the promise of assistance, and then
gave Its money and its fighting force to the
armies of invasion. Its boast has been and
now is that without Its aid the South could
not have been subjugated. These are our
friends for whom we are to sacrifice every
thing, and to conciliate whose good opinion
we are to hurl ourselves against the RepubH-
can party, the Government, the Union. Not
SO, say we. We have nothing either to hope
or to fear from the Democracy of the North.
On the contrary, we have everything to fear
from continued war upon " the party of the
Union," and our only hope is in its. favor.
1t dominates over the whole North, it rules
every department of the Government, it has
the army and the navy, and is marked by
every trait that defines supremacy. How is
it at the South? 1t has all the colored pop
ulation, all the original Union men, and is
hourly gaining accretions from the Confed-
crate ranks. The instinct of self-preserva-
tion is impelling the Southern masses to that
''co-operation" which our neighbor so de-
tests. The fact is that the people have at
last become convinced that they will be ut
terly ruined without reconstruction, and have
resolved to do everything that Is necessary
to that end. They want peace and repose ;
they want clear field for industry and en-
terprise they want the protection of theil
Government, and, as necessary thereto, par
ticipation in it.

agitate the public soon after the landing of
the expeditionary army at Gallipoli, took
their effect upon her mind. Lady Goodwin,
observing her one morning much out Of
spirits, used sly little moral probe, and
said, "No doubt George, poor fellow was
as well off as anybody" Pennic gave her
no answer. She was not thinking of George,
but she could hardly say SO without telling
of whom she was thinking, and Lady
Goodwin had never encouraged her to speak
of Mr.. Tindal. She therefore nursed her
fears in silence. There was no loud talk
of glory yet to inspire with her lofty visions.
Mr.. Tindal had probably been enduring for
months the mean privations there was so
much fuss about getting wet, sleeping with
out shelter, and not having enough to eat.
or nice things; that was all Of course, and
might do him no harm. But perhaps he
had run greater dangers; perhaps he had
rushed into the thick Of the campaign on the
Danube Perhaps he had even fallen, an
unknown volunteer in the army of Omar
Pasha! Nothing was too extreme for her
imagining when her fancy had taken wings.
Perhaps he was dead, and they were afraid
to tell her The day that gloomy possibili-
ty effected lodgment in her brain she ag-
grieved Lady Goodwin by declining to go to
garden fete at Richmond.
The next morning she bethought her of
writing to DIR. Grey-he would not deceive
her, she was sure. After nearly a weeks
delay, the answer in an unfamiliar hand,and
proved to be from Mr.. Buckhurst. OF Mr..
Tndal he said he could hear nothing but that
he was still in the East-alive and well for
anything they knew to the contrary at the
Abbey. OF her guardian, however, he gave
her the sad, unexpected news, that the good
old doctor had only few days befor suffered
a paralytic seizure, and that it was much to
be feared he would never resume the exercise
of his profession. Pennie formed prompt
resolve to return to Eastwold, and without
loss of time announced it to Lady Goodwin
"But, my dear Pennie, you were to be
presented at the drawing-rooms remonstrat-
ed her amazed chaperone. You have
not seen the pictures at the Royal Academy.
The season has hardly begun, and you have
been nowhere. Can it be possible that you
do not care for the pleasure you might en-
joy!"
81 could care for them heartily enough ii
1 had mind at ease, replied Pennie. "As
it is, think shall be happier at Eastwood.
Lady Goodwin knew then that her dreams
and schemes for George and Pennie had
been labor in vain. She wrote to that effec1
to her sister. "You will find your head
strong ward still clinging with all her heart
to Mr.. Tindal." Mrs. Wynyard sighed ovei
the abortive result of Pennies glimpes o.
the world, and wrote her a few lines by re
ture of post,to bid her welcome to Eastwolt
whenever she was pleased to come.
The next day Mr.. Vineyards ward set ou
on her return to Eastwood.
