[ think that our friends here will all be perfect
lycontent if they can get a favorable report
from the Senate Judiciary Committee. It will
by no means stun or dishearten them if they
get no report at all Their thoughts are now
chiefly directed to the incoming administration,
and there are many reasons why they should be
50 directed. In one month General Grant will
be inaugurated.s.'
It is believed, and there is good ground for
the belief, that he will use his influence to
promote the success of our Virginia movement,
and to procure for us all, if not more than we
have asked Such is the confidence felt in
General Grants good wishes aud purposes that
there are few, am inclined to think, who would
not willingly submit it to him to prescribe terms,
to take sheetof paper and write down his
own form of adjustment. Under such ci,cum-
stances the proper policy would seem to be to
forbear any attempt to hurry up the present
Congress, however favorably it may be suppos
ed to regard this movement IF it choose to
act of its own motion so well, if not let Virginia
wait atientiy and hopefully for General G rant
accession, She has more to hope than to fear
from it. ~

"a Suggestion. ="

A communication signed "Pacifcus," pub
lished in the Richmond Wig of Friday last,
the 5lh inst, suggests the following:
It see from the newspapers that the Repub-
lican party will hold Convention IN Peters
burg on the 9th Of March to select candidates e.,
for State Offices. The Conservative party VIII
meet in Convention in Richmond on the 18th
of the same month to receive the report OF the
Committee of Nine, and to adopt such meas
ures as may be deemed expedient to promote
the success of the Virginia Movement. Ny
suggestion is this Let the Republicans noml-
nate as their candidates original and consistent
members of their party who are honestly IN ia
yor of restoring the State to the Union upon
the basis proposed by the committee OF Vlr
ginians, and then let the Conservatives IN their
Convention, preferring country to place. APP
prove and endorse the nominations.
The above suggestion, as we'll as the action
of a meeting in Nottoway, noticed elsewhere,
shows how rapidly some in Virginia are.march-
ing towards the Republican camp with the
view of joining the forces of that party. These
are strange times and strange Developments are
being made almost daily. Truly, mo man can
tell what day may bring forth.

"WaIk into nv Parlor" &c.

The Alexandra Gazette says that, never was
there a better illustration of Loves Labor
Lost" or the ''Needlessness of an Invitation,
than is shown in the address Of the Richmond
State Journal to the Old Whigs-that is, those
who were Wings In old party times-most at
fectionately, earnestly and urgently exhortlng
them to come in and join the Radical party
If it had only headed its persuasive article, as
a motto, with the lines
Twill you walk into my parlor, said the spider
to the fly,
1t is the prettiest little parlor that you did
spy"
the whole thing would have been complete.
But, seriously. Never were people more
mistaken, than are the leaders Of the Radicals,
if they suppose, for an instant, that former
party distinctions are to prevail with or operate
upon the former Wings in Virginia to affiliate
in the slightest degree, politically, with the
Radical party. They have not single politi~
cal principle in common, and the events OF
eight years past have sundered them, political
ly, as far apart as the poles No inducements
Of place. or distinction, or power, or gain, or
success, could bring about, with men who re
gard principle. such a monstrous coalition:
differing as they do on constitutional doctrines,
on measures of policy. foreign and domestic;
In ideas, in sentiments, In motives OF action,
and in the very fundamental principles of gov
eminent. And when we speak thus, we are
confident we speak for all, with rare excep-
tions,) of those who were Wings in days gone
by, and who are not now in communion with
the Radical party.
When we read the temptations held out, in
the article to which we refer, we could not but
think, not irreverently or by way of comparison,
but as suggestive, Of another temptation re-
corded in Holy Writ, where all the kingdoms
Of the world and the glory of them were
shown, and the promise made all these
things will give thee, if thou wilt fall down
and worship me- and of the ans'ser given

Constitutional Amendments.

With the Alex. Gazette I'VE have been and
are, totally opposed to the whole batch of con
stitutional amendments that have been
brought before Congress during and since the
war, and that continue to be brought in, up to
this day. They are ''only evil and that oontin-
ually" IF any of the propositions have merit
of any kind, this is not the time, in this day of
change and disintegration, to present them ;
much less to force them upon the people If
we had peace and were in peaceful and
prosperous career of civil government, we
would be willing to consider some changes in
the organic law which considerate, right think
ing men, might judge to be necessary Or expes
dent. But, now, it is manifest that most of
these so-calleo constitutional amendments"
are designed for miserable, temporary party
purposes, and as party expedients. We prefer,
infinitely, the Constitution as it acas The
thinkers at the Constitution only batter and dis
figure that noble instrument, and injure its
beautiful symmetry and proportions In word,
in our opinion, they are not competent by
character, wisdom, virtue, good principles, or
common sense, at this day, and at this time, to
amend the Constitution. They ought to con
fine their operations to other and more congo
NAL matters If the course of legislation shows
no respect to the Constituencies the inatru
ment itself remain on paper! 1t will be at
least, even if unheeded-a silent rebuke And
that is as much as we can expect at this time -
