Should the Stay LaO be Er-
tended?

Hon. Fayetie McMullin presented
petition OF citizens on Virginia To General
Grant against the extension of the stay
laws beyond the lst Of January, 1869.
Grant expressed biuiseif favorably, but de-
sired to consult Schoheld before acting
Stoneman, IL is understood, opposes their
further extension, and advises those who
can't pay their debts to take the benefit of
the bankrupt Law, and start airesh. Grants
petitioners represent that further extension
Of the stay laws will involve the credit of
tho State, and will prevent payment of the
interest of the State debt Washington
telegram.
The stay law in Virginia has been
either great blunder or great swindle.
We inclinel to think it has partaken
of both these delectable qualifications.
Instead of. becoming a relief it has been
an oppression. To-day our people are
less able to meet their indebtedness
than they were in 1865. Then com>
promise and. concession would have
prevailed. N0w the creditor will ex.
act his pound of flesh This measure
was passed in the most odious and OPP
pressive shape which legislation could
impart to it. The debtor has been for
nearly four years entirely protected.
The creditor has had no redress, but has
been forged to behold the property aud
often the person of the debtor disappear.
Yet, for the forced foroearance he could
not even require security for ultimate
payment. This law, we believe, was
made in the interest of those who passed
it, and against the interests of the whole
people.
How shall it be remedied 7 In the
extravaganza of their expectations our
people have involved themselves in new
transactions and to enforce the old
claim implies unparalleled ruin. We
say now let Gen. Stonemap, require
these debts to be paid in FIVE annual
installments, provided, those ayailing
themselves. Of the extension shall secure
the payment Of, the subsequent install
ments. TO do more or less will be
worse than repIdiation.

THE statement by Knoxville paper
that it was in accordance with the ex-
pressedl wish Of the stockholders. of the
r. o. g. Va. Railroad that Col. Thomps.
III Galloway was elected as President
Of that road, is not warranted by the
facts as we have them, There we're
two tickets voted for, and at the head Of
each stood the name of Col. Jaques.
1t was fairly understood that he wes
being voted for in the election of the
directory. Accordingly the new board
unanimously, elected him to the presi-
dency az. was announced in our last
weeks issue, and the position was inn
mediately declined by that gentleman,
There was then but one more step re-
naming to consummate the plan of
which the friends of Col. Jaques we're
in bissful ignorance, viz the election
of Col. Galloway. This step was
promptly taken, and that gentlemen
now represents consolidation in Tennes-

tendeut.
Of the two, tickets, it is proper. to
state tha;Ithe one advanced in the inter
est Of Mr., Galloway was about to carry
by a large majority, when Col. Jacques,
who is a very heavy stockholaer, step
ped forward aud departed from the pre-
vailing ticket just sufficiently to secure
the election of Mr.. Joseph r. Ander-
son, of Bristol, as one of the Board OF
Directors. This matter of Mr. Ander-
sons election Is peculiarly gratifying to
our people, who certainly deserved a
q representation upon that board, but
have heretofore been without it. The
friends Of Col. Jacques recognize his
right to decline the Presidency Of the
Tennessee road, or any other position,
but there are many of them who at
least regret that they we're misled in
believing that he desired the position
and would surely accept it. AS far, as
Mr.. Galloway, represents the great prin-
ciple of Southern consolidation, there
will be few progressive minds found un-
willing to accept his elevation to the
distinguished position he now holds,
But if it shall be found that he seeks
to revert the great line of roads from
Chattanooga to Lynchburg into feeder
for the city of Baltimore, be will find
many who will regret the success of his
mysterious election, and who will yet
rise aud confront him with an antago-
nism which may be yet more feared
than il is now respected, "a

OE our fest page will be found ex'
tracts from a. very recent letter from
Senator Fowler to Hon. II. S. Foote,
whose reply we have not room for. We
regret that our space is insufficient for
the whole of this very important corr
respondence. 1t bears directly and
practically upon the great question
which must soon be settled, and which
concerns the vital interests of the
Southern people. The views of Seua-
tor Fowler are those Of sp enlightened
and generous Radical, aud we believe
they are identical with those of Chief
Justice Chase. They advocate our i'm
mediate restoration to the Union upon
the principle of universal amnesty and
universal suffrage This is probably
the best basis of settlement we will
ever get, and it is required Of us by the
dominant and conquering party We
believe that as subjugated people,
We will have to consent to ii and if SO,
the question arises whether it is Wise for
us to resist it longer. We think not,
and with Mr. Fowler, we believe that
our prompt and graceful surrender to
these terms will, by its results, soon
convince as of,the folly of our past
efforts to obtain. mitigation at the
hands of the Northern Democracy, who
cannot assist us, and but for selfish
motives would never have attempted it
