The Virginia ETecf;op

At the date OF this writing, the returns Of the
election Just held In Virginia are insufli cient
10 sho" with my certainty how that State
has voted; bn, re imagine n majority will
be FOUND 10 have voted for conren ton and
we apprehend also negro ma ority secured
In that body. This result was Intended from
the oeginning-the frauds in registration and
apportionmert all show that It wa n forerone
conclusion. The negroes appear TO have gene
rally voted as n body, and the two races were
thus pitted one against the other The few
negroes In Richmond and Lynchbnrg who
attempted to vote the Conservative ticket
were atonce get upon by the Infatuated blacks,
and barely escaped with their lives BY the des-
perate excrtions Of the police, aided by the
Federal military. The mob Of blood thirsty
negro savages, whom the Radicals propose to
invest with the political power OF this noble
old Common wealth, yielded slowly before the
evident determination of the military to en-
force order. These latter acted with much
greater foTbe2ranCc, we imagine. than they
would have done If white men had thus defiad
their authority and Interrupted the peaceful
progress Of the election.
Such is reconstruction = in Tirginfa-a
black carnival Of license nshered in by fraud,
violence, and meditated murder, until things
have now come 10 such pass that in the
capital OF the State which gave US Washing
ton, Jefferson, and Madison, the cry of those
demoralized blacks is not merely for the pro-
perry OF the whites, and the blood CT those OF
their own race who vote independently. but
for that also Ut the Northern resident who
refuses to endorse their Jacobin projects.
Against these last Hunnicutt gives the sign,
and the faithful pack echo the cry, Kill the
d Yankee !; kill him: shoot him - and the
words were at once followed by an effort Of the
mob to accomplish their murderous purpose.
Here we behold the first fruits Of the econ
gressional policy" of reconstruction. No
State has been, so far, restored to the Union
but class Of heretofore orderly and peaceful
laborers have been transformed into savages
athirst for blood and rapine. White men of
America, how long will you stand it7-m-

Italian Affairs.

1t is quite impossible for any one on TINS
side of the Atlantic to Judge of the actual
condition of affairs in Italy. The troubles IN
the Italian Cabinet, the resignation OF ha-
taZZi the escape OF Garibaldi from Caprera,
the sudden arrest Of the French fleet which
was abont TO sail for Civita Eecchia, and the
assurances said to have been given by the
Government of Victor Emmanuel That ltily
,yill maintain the treaty of September, all are
events which have 4 secret history; of which
nothing is rs yet known 10 the publlc, "hlcn

there seems TO be rs great Us IN any other part
of the country. Throughout the land there IS

WASHINGTON, October 24.-The PRESIDENT 70
day referred to the Secretary Of War at ''ae-
rim for consideration and remark the petition
of citizens Of Georgia mentioned in these dis
patches in Wednesday mornings paper, III
which complaint is made that General Pope,
in apportioning delegates for the Convention,
gives undue advantage 10 the colorsd over the
white race. General Grant returns the petit
ton with his endorsement substantially that
it seems to him that allotment should
be made by counties instead Of sena-
torial districts, directed by General
Pope, bu. as the time for the election
the o9th iDstant is near ~ hand, he cannot
see how the matter can be remedied but he
has telegraphed to General Pope asking if i,
is practicable 10 make the change sought, and
whether it would not be better to fix represen-
,atiou By counties instead OF senatorial dis.
tricts The reply OF General Pope has not
yet been received 1t is to be observed tina,
General Grant does not claim the power 10
direct the district commanders. and therefore
his communication is merely suggestive.

From NassachuscttS-The Election Campaign
in the statc-Thc License Men Ahead.

Boston, October 22.-MassachusettS politics
have come nearer to Il focus tonight than At
any other time during the campaign. Senate
rial and representative caucuses have been held
all over the State since the beginning Of the
week, and in spite of respondent anticlpations
the license law men have thus far gained the
power. Both the prohibtionsts and the adj
vocateS of license are working sharply, eX-
pending money freely, and giving an air OF
excitement to the canvass. Both parties are
loud in Boosting of their gains. The favorltes
of prohibition as we'll rs those Of license are
confident Of controlling both House and SEN
ate in the next legislative body. So far rs
conventions and caucuscs have been held. the
results are decidedly in favor of the license
