The Stay Law.
NEAR UPPERvILLE, Va,
January l, 1867.

tn The Editors Of the Richmond Dispatch:
there seems to prevail much dissatis-
e.ction. and even Indignation, among a
iaroe class of our fellow-citizens in refer
ancs 10 the recent action Of the Legisla-
ture concerning the stay law, permit me
through the columns Of your paper TO IN
c,r,n ali those interested, that ample funds
have been provided, and the ablest coun-
sci engaged, to test the constitut'onahos OF
said law before the highest tribunal OF the
State; and if its decisions should be ad-
verse TO the claimants (Which no one Tor
moment anticipates) the matter VIII DC
brought before the Supreme Court of the
limited States for final adjudication, be-
fore which court the claims of all citizens
TO equal Justice and impartial legislation
will doubtless be indicated and sustained.
II isa notorious fact, that whenever this
Law has been brought before the courts in
other States, it has been declared uncon-
stitutional-as was the case in MISSISSIPPI,
Alabama, and Texas. The seeming acqnl-
essence OF the public in the stay law,
nassed last session, has emboldened the
Legislature in its late proceedings TO push
the law to such an extreme as TO render
further submission on the part of the Gre
ditor both humiliatirg and degrading, and
yould involve the ultimate loss of his pro-
perty, and destroy his equality before the
law. The people of Virginia have deter
mined 10 show the Legislature, or at least
that norton of it that sustains this law, that
il shall no, trample upon their rights with
impunity and that there is q limit set by
law to this arbitrary assumption OF power
over the rights and property of the citi,
Zens Of this State. The veil or pretext
under which this law was passed, and is
now sustained, is too transparent todeceive
the most casual observer; and 1t is high
time the mask was torn from its authors ;
and this glsning outrage upon the rights
and equality Of the citizens should be held
up to public scorn and indignation. / very
much mistake tho temper and sentiment
OF the masses il there is not stay-at-ho,ne
n,o enacted at the polls at the coming cleo
tion for tho special benefit Of those homo
rable members who have legislated away
the rights and property Of one class Of citi-
! 1ens for the benefit Of another.
- JUSTICE AND EQUALITY.

RIopementExtnordinnrr.

While strolling down Sixth street yes
terday morning We met friend from
whom wegleaned the following respect
ing an elopement, which we deem rath-
er extraodinary. 1t appears from the
statement of the father, that about two
weeks since his daughter, young lady
of eighteen, began more than ordinary
regard for mulatto man engaged as
dining room servant at his residence, in
Cincinnati, that from the fact of serv-
ant being a rather handsome fellow
with "winning" ways, and his daughter
being weak-minded, the servant whom
we shall call Frank, soon succeeded
in gaining the girls affections, and the
whole proposition eliminated Ia the
young lady's elopement with Frank.
The fight of the parties was
ingeniausly arranged, and proved
successful, but not so as to their
ability to, in the future, prevent dis
covery of theis whereabouts. Their
movements had been watched for days
before, the girls father deeming love
and courtship possible, but would not
for prudential reasons hint word to
his daughter, and tits strange to him,
he says, how they succeeded in battling,
for so long time as they did, their pur-
suers.
Immediately Oh discovering the fight
of his daughter, the Cincinnati gentle
man telegraphed to the Chief ofPolice
in all the principal cities North and
West, and started himself OH the chase,
which he kept up until he arrived at
Lawrence, Kansas, where he obtained
information that the ''young couple"
snugly ensconced in house not thou
sand miles from Patectown. He, with
the assistance ola friend, succeeded in
rescuing his daughter, and started OH
his return with her on the 9o'clOck train
last evening.
We must not forget to meLtion that
the young woman and Frank. were mar
ried (subrOsd) In Kansas, and it was
with difficulty Frank could be per
suaded to relinquish his right to the
girl. He did so however, but very re-
luctantly, and the father intends to
place his erring daughter in some insti-
tuition where she will be safe from the
dangerous influences of 'niscegenation.
Having been requested to publish no
names, we shall of course withhold
them publication. Does not the forego-
ing smack of the heresy of abolition
and micegenation ideas?-S Joseph
(MO.) Herald, 22d.

A Singular Case.

A few months since middle-aged
man came from Germany to this city to
better his fortune, leaving wife and
two children at home. He took board
in a house on Twelfth street. in the
second ward; soon after the man of the
house died, and within three weeks he
was married to his widow, forgetful of
his own family. By some means his
wife in Germany learned ofwhat he had
done, and shortly after she was again
married, and started with her husband
and children for this country. and ar
rived in this city few days since. Her
eldest daughter, girl offourteen years,
had a great desire to see her father, and
discovering where he lived on Twelfth
street, found him night before last. On
