GoRDoNsvrILE CORRESPONDENCE.
a GoHDossv1LLE, January p, 1868

t GoHDoNSyILLE, January =, 1858.
Times are very dull in this communal
ty. The excessive cold weather Keeps
people generally within doors; and
perhaps this accounts for the unusual
deficiency in point of news. The Cos
sips find it more pleasant and comfor-
table remaining by their tiresides, than
going about discussing their neighbours
affairs.
The only engrossing topic current
just now, is the sudden change in our
postal arrangements; as 1t was sup
posed to have been definitely under
stood that things would remain in stdtu
quo. The present arrangement disar-
ranges matters considerably. Passcn-
gers by the Central road for the North
have to lie over here threeshours. Eve
ry change that is made seems to act adj
yerseiy to the Orange road. Gordons-
vile is destined to become an impor-
tant place, and if the, people are not ac-
commoGated they will start an opposi-
ton route.
Last week one of the fair damsels Of
our village being so desperately assaulted
by the darts of Cupid-that wicked lit
tie imp that always prowling around
here-she was induced to seek an anti
dote for the poison inOculated, in elop-
ing with brakeman on the Orange
railroad. The affair occasioned so lit
tie remark, that it had almost escaped
notice from your correspondent.
SO far as we have been able to ascer-
tain in this section, the idea ola County
Fair meets with a warm and hearty APP
probation; but Gordonsville possesses
advantages decidedly in favor of place
for holding it. There is no reason why
Orange should be behind in this respect,
and if the project were brought before
the people on the next Court 6ay, we
have little doubt but that they would
vote for it unanimously.

PENDLEToNlFoR PRESIDENT.

The State Convention of the Ohio
Democracy, with singular unanimity,
nominated George II. Pendleton for
President of the United States as the
choice of the people of Ohio, and we
have no doubt that this nomination will
meet with the approval of the people of
the Union, and of the National Con-
vention. Never in the history of the
State has there been such entire har-
mony of feeling upon so important a
question. To say that MIR. Pendleton
is worthy Of this honor, and that his
nomination, election and administra-
ton will reflect credit and increase the
renown of our great State, would be
but to repeat what every Democrat in
Ohio believes. He is man in whom
the people can safely trust the stupen-
dous interests involved in the next
Presidential campaign, as his wisdom,
states-manship and integrity are guar
autees of "a successful and benefcent
administration. The nomination meets
with our most cordial appreciation, and
we can with unfeigned pleasure testify
our qualification, and pledge to it our
hearty and sincere support. The Ma
tional Convention will complete its mis-
sion by the selection of Pendleton as
the Presidential nominee, and the peo-
pie of the Union will do themselves a
service ofincaculable value by his cleo
tion. Columbus, Ohio, Crisis

BUSINESS NOTICE.

JAMESON & COLLINS, Alexandria, Va.
II. $. JAMESON commenced the bust
ness of Iron Founder and Machinist in
1858. When the late struggle conn.,
menced his place of business was clos
ed and taken possession of by the U. S.
troops, who broke open the iron safe,
destroyed a large number of books ana
papers of the concern, and burnt a
quantity of the patterns. After the
war. JAMESON & COLLINS opened AN
Iron and Brass Foundry, and having
purchased the large number of pat
terms formerly owned by SMITH & PER-
KINs, are prepared now to execute or
ders for all Iron and Brass Castings
with promptness and accuracy. They
also pay special attantion to Mill-gear-
ing of all deseriptions-their numerous
patterns giving them great facilities
for such work. G.. III. COLLINS is a
strong Southern man, and JAMESON
was in the Confederate service from
the beginning to the close of the war.
We commend the firm to the favorable
consideration of our numerous readers.

TWO ROUNDS FOR OLD VIRGINIA.

The question has of late been repeat
eddy put to us to know the number of
States in the Union. We thought we
had an opportunity of having the mat
ter tested on the 8th, and decided by au-
thoritative declaration. The General
A Assembly voted the firing ola national
salute in honor of the day-one gun for
each State-and we counted with ca
gerness the reports as the artillery
Numbered from Arsenal Hill. At the
close our score showed thirty-seven.--
The southern States had evidently been
recognized, but so also, thought we. had
the disemberment of Virginia. We
sought the gentleman who designated
the number of rounds to be fired. "Did
you intend to recognize West Virginia
in the salute ?" we inquired. ''NOt
bit ofit," said he, placing his ioretinger
to the side of mis- nose, and eyeIng us
askance. ''There are only thirty-six
bona fde States, but then we could not
help giving two rounds for the glorious

IMPORTANT DECISION.

In the case of Forbes Us. Ficklen.
which was decided in favor of the plain
tiff, Forbes, at the late term of the Dis
trict Court, in Fredericksburg, the fol-
lowing important principles of law
were maintained by the decision of the
Court :taE tf q sfg SIS. ss...89
1. As general rule, when debtor
pays his debt in notes purporting to be
bank or other current notes, he war
rants item to be genuine; and If they
turn out to be counterfeit, he is bound
to repay the amount in good money
A bank Is presumed to know its own
notes, and If it receives notes purport-
ing to be its own, either in payment of
q debt or on deposit, it will have no re-
course even against the payer or deposit
tor if they turn out to be counterfeit. -
There is no warranty of the genuiness
in that case; which is. therefore, an ex-
ception to the general rule.
2. 1t is the duty of a person who re-
ceives as genuine, in payment Of debt,
a note which turns out to be counter
felt, to give notice of the latter fact to
the debtor as soon as he reasonably can,
after he is himself informed of the fact,
and if he neglects to do so, he will lose
his recourse over against the debtor
By receiving due notice, the debtor
might be enabled to obtain indemnity
by returning the note to the person
from whom ne received it; but whether
he could or not, the law presumes that
he is injured by not receiving such no.
tice, and he is, therefore, in that case,
discharged from his liability. -
8. But the person who receives the
forged note as genuine, is not bound to
use any means to ascertain whether the
note be genuine or not; nor is he bound
to deposit it in the bank or put it in i'm
mediate circulation, but he may put it
away for sate-keeping until he has oc-
casion to use it, and will still have his
recourse over against the person from
whom he received it, unless the neg
lect to give due notice, rs aforesaid, az
ter he is informed that the note lisa coun-
terfeit.
[This is a very important decision /;
aud being the unanimous judgment OF
four judges, one of whom Judge Mon
cure) is the Chief Justice Of Virginia, 1t
may be fairly regarded as making the
several propositions enunciated, the
settled law of virginia.

Independence, originality. and intre.
pidity, added to earnest and intelligent
conviction; unwavering devotion tC
principle and purpose;Ea will stern and
memorable, and a disposition frank
courteous, and generous, are features
OF character which rarely fail to make q
representative man. After the death
of Mr.. Calhoun, he was incomparably
the ablest exponent of States Rights
principles, and even during the life o.
that great publicist, Mr.. Davis, almost
equally with him, shared the labors and
responsibilities dictatorship. His per.
sonal courage is ofthat sl<nightly order
which in an age of chivalry would have
sought the trophies ofthe tourney, and
his moral lIeroism fixed him immovably
upon the solid rock of principle, indif
ferent to the inconvenience of being IL
minority and in no dread of ths
storms of popular passion. His faitl
in his principles was no less earnest
than his confidence in his ability to tri
umphantly defend them.

JAMES BROOKS TELLS THE RADICALS
WHAT THE DEMOCRATS WILL DO.

In the House on Friday. MIR. Brooks,
of New York, said: y ~
| 1--WE intend to undo what has been
done'by this Congress, and we shall,
sooner or later, have the power within
the walls of the House to undo it all. =
These proceedings In Ohio and New
Jersey are but the beginning OF the rev.
olution which has already made its APP
pearance elsewhere; and the presidents
and perogatives and powers which the
majority in this House is now assuming
in the most revolutionary manner we
intend to make use of to undo all these
revolutionary and violent proceedings.
SO the honorable gentlemen from Mas
sachusetts might as we'll make up his
mind now to see the beginning of this
great reactionary movement. We do
not intend to deprive the negroes of the
South of their liberty. We intend to
allow them twelfth representation,
not three-fitths one, which the neg
roes in the North are having. But We
do not intend to allow, so far as we can
help it, the people of the Northt to be
brought into negro eo-partnership in
government on the floor of this House,
or to be ruled by black majorities, by
rotten borough negro constituencies in
the South, We do not intend to be
ruled by any such government as that,
and all the processes of legislation by
which that has been reached, or is to be
reached. Through State Legislatures,
as in Ohio; through State action, as in
New Jersey; through $4,000 popular
majority in my own State, to be in
creased next year to 100000. If this
House goes on with these proceedings
we intend to undo them all. l repeat,
that everything which has been done is
to be undone. The voice OF the people
is no longer heard in whispers, but in
the loud roar of the whirlwind, coming
from all parts OF the country, and It
win sooner or later unseat large ma
jority of those who now constitute the
majority on this floor, putting in their
places the Democracy of the country
If the statistics of elections are, exam
ined even now it will be found that a
large majority ofInembers on this side
of the House hold their seats here and
vote here on these bills who nolonger
represent their constituents, but are
acting i'll utter defiance OF the people
who sent them here.n etn-lafs

GEN M,CLERNAND AND GEN. GRANT.

General JoHN A. McC1ERNANb has
addressed the following letter to the
Springfield Qllinois) Register
SPRINGFIELD, ILL, Jan. 9, 1868.
observe IN the Chicago Tribune OF
the 4th instant certain extracts pnr-
porting to be taken from Badeau's Life
of General Grant.
OF whilom Colone,, now Lietenant
Badean, it is well enough to say, en- pas
SAINT, that he was unknown to me, UNI
less once saw HIM hanging around
General Grants headquarters, as a
questionable appendage, where he may
still be an ornamental, rather than use
full appurtenance. Failing to gain dis
tinction as a soldier, he seems deter
mined to gain Infamous notoriety, both
as personal traducer and panegy rist.
Undertaking, ostensibly. to write
General Grants biography, he has COM
menced the hopeless task of writing
him into the Presidency. In this eff
fort he has gone out of the way to as
sail me, and only echoes his masters
malevolence.
1t is rather, then Of his master, from
his position more distinguished OBJ
Let him publish the correspondence
the whole OF the correspondence OF
which he mplains-through his par
tisan amanuensis. This done, his char
acter for candor and fair dealing will
be exhibited in better light than at
present before the public, to whose
Judgment he appeals against fellow
soldier. - l"iI. sH
Sometimes General Grants sense OF
justice, but oftener his passions, have
controlled his conduct towards me-
Especially has his latter been 50 exhib-
tied since the brilliant and successful
issue of the Mississippi campaign. in
which the 18th army corps, which had
the honor to command, bore such a
meritorious part. In his official report
of that campaign, he either from ignO-
rance or malice, falsified important
facts, honorable to that corps and to
me, to the dispal agement of both.i The
proof is on file in the War Department,
but has never been permitted to see
the light. ten g1ndi frst r,a yba
Only recently, when my name was
before the Senate for confirmation to
