TIE REASON FOR THE REMOVAL OF Go
VERNON PEIRPoINT.-General ScHoFIELD's
order appointing Mr.. WELLS Governor as
sumes that Governor PEIRPoINT could not
have served another term under the Con.
stitution of Virginia. The General means,
We suppose, not that the letter but that the
spirit of the Constitution excludes him.
The Generals construction of the Consti-
tuition, right or wrong, is the one that will
prevail; and as all the Radical proceed
ings in Virginia and elsewhere in the
South are admitted to be outside of the
Federal Constitution, it is hardly worth
while to trouble ourselves as to the consti-
tutionality, under our own organic law, of
any act Of our military masters. Indeed,
1t is q mere burlesque to pretend that the
Alexandria Constitution is the Constitu-
tion OF Virginia in any other sense than
the reconstruction laws are laws of Vir-
GINA.
But, conceding that the Alexandria
Constitution is in force, then Governor
fERPoIsT is, according to our construe-
lion OF it, eligible to election under it..
mat instrument was adopted since his
election as Governor, and BY special pro-
VISION In the schedule accompanying it
continued him in Office until the end of
his term. His term expired on the slst
Gay OF December last. he has never been
elected under the Consultation, and there.
iors 1t cannot be that he Is ineligible.
The same Constitution provides that no
man can be Governor Of Virginia who has
! not been citizen" Of the State for ave
years. General Wells has been il, the
o'a'e Tor five or six years; but he could
NOT become citizen In the sense In which
Inc word Is employed In the Constitution
80 long IS ne remained In the Federal army.
Therefore he has no. been q citizen Cor
five years, and Is of course inepgibls To the
governorship, while Governor PEIRpo.Nr
il not ineligible.

SAD sureIpE.-Ths Richmond (va) Register
has the following account Of a suicide In that
city;
The community was greatly shocked and
startled on yesterday BY the suicide Of Mr.;
Thos. W. Bell, son Of Mr.. WIN. N. Bell, one OF
our most prominent merchants.
The deceased, who had but lately returned
from Mexico has been for some time laboring
under an intense mental depression, which,
probably assuming the form Of temporary In
sanity, prompted him to the commission Of tho
dreadful deed.
About noon on Sunday Mr.. Bell WAS sccostsd
by a friend at the. door Of the Broad Street
Methodist church, and said he was going In.
His friend congratulating him on his good inten-
tions, the deceased replied that he was not going
In to attend service, But to have his funeral SCR
mon preached by DR.. Dogastt, at the same time
taking from his pocket IN envelope, which, he
said, contained morphine, and announcing his
intention Of killing himself. The person I'D
dressed, however, paid no attention to this
threat, and they parted, to meet again In about
twenty minutes at ST. Paul's church, after
which his friend saw him no more.
About 5 o'clock on the same evening Mr.
Bell applied for and obtained . room at the
Spottswood Hotel, where he had spent the pre-
room, whore he called Cor drink, into which
he emptied the contents Of . paper, and aftsl
drinking threw the paper on the floor, inform
ing the bar.keeper that he had taken NOR
phine. The bar.keeper picked up the paper
but being called of before examining II tn
circumstance was forgotten.
Mr.. Bell then retired to his room, and no
making his appearance up to noon on yesterday
some Of tho attaches Of tho hotel looking throug
tho light above the door, observed him motion
less in bed, whereupon the door was opens
with pass key, and he was discovered to haV
been dead for some hours.
