ALEXANDRIA.
MONDAY EVENING, JUNE o.

TIE New York Times calls the Agrarian
speech of Senator Wade, lately delivered IN
Kansas, 'sa jump forward into chaos" The
Times admits that this speech dives right into
the depths of French socialism, and whilst 1t
does not, in plain words endorse the doctrine
that property is theft, y it assails the whole
industrial and business fabric of the country,
and sends forth propositions involving gener-
al division of lands and goods, and the limita-
ton of capital-all by acts Of Congress. The
South is impotent to prevent this, on any
other mischief-but the North is to decide as
to the triumph of principles, which will raise
a spirit as destructive to it's particular inter-
ests as it will be fatal to the prosperity and
peace of the whole country. The seeds OF the
wind have been sown, and the whirlwind may
yet be reaped. And when the harvest comes,
let the Northern merchants, the manufacturers,
the bondholders, the stock owners, the bank
managers the monied men, the capitalists
look out-tor their dag Ia at hand-and The
pzuader will be easier, quicker, more tempting
more desirable, than The division or the conGs
cation of lands in the South They will iher
find what friends they have raised up, so turf
and rend them. -

'",nE ATTEMPT TO SCARE "A letter from

TIE ATTEMPT TO SCARE "A letter from
Richmond, in the Baltimore Sun says:
Another sensation here, was the arrest and
gentleman Of this city, Mr.. Mark Downey,
before the United States commissioner charged
with perjury in taking the registration oath,
the ground Of the charge being that Mr.
DoWncy waa dlatlanchistd under the Alcxan-
drla constitution. The Alexandria constitu-
| ton did dislIanchi=e hose who, since the lst
or January, 1861 voluntarily aided the rebel
| hon, bnt 1t also provided that the Legislature
might restore them to their rights when it
considered 1t safe to do SO. Accordingly, May
%, 1865, the Legislature passed an act resl0r-
ing the right OF suffrage to all who took tho
amnesty oath Of President Johnson aud also
an oath to support the restored government o.
Virginia. Both Of these oaths were taken By
Mr. Downey and other citizens OF Virginia..
| On the 2lst Of june Of the same year the Leg
isIatnrt also passed an act authorizing lht
Governor 10 submit TO the people The quas
ton whether the neyt Legislature should b.
empowered to alter or amend the disiranchis
| ing article Of the constitution and the people
voted almost unanimously III favor thereof. -
The Legislature acCOrding ~ passed al 0rdl
nance in conformity with the popular vote, ah(
this removed from the constitution all trace O
the DISTINGUISHING clause. Besides, if til
constitution had never been repealed, 1t onl,
| diafranchised those who gave voluntary aid t.
the rebellion after the Isl Of January, 1864
and the voluntary feature OF the Confederate
military service ceased On the Eth Of April
1862 If Mr. Downey is di=tran1hl:ed hy th,
| Alez aHdria constitution, then nine tehha .
the Virginia people are also dialianchisrd. -
| This arrest is looked upon as a divice to srar'
