Showing that Lincoln county
paid about eleven thousand dol
lars more into the State Treasury
in 1859, than she took out Of it.
Doubtless this excessive payment
has been kept up from Lincoln
county from that time till the
present, varying only in the ex-
cess. But we shall endeavor to
present in our next issue, a SINH
lar tabular statement to that pre-
sented in 1859, for the present
year.
Now in the face of this exces-
sive payment on the part of our
county, neither Cur people, nor
their representatives have sought
for a State Office for about thirty
years. We. think the substantial
support of our people, and their
modesty entitle them to reward.
And especially is this the case,
when in the past and now, we
could present such an array of
able men ''to tilt" for State hon.
ors. Now we are presenting one
of our men, Of solid substantial
merit in Robt. S. Woodland for the
Office OF State Treasurer. We
have seen more sho,cy men, men
t0ho spend more money, but we new.
er expect to see State Treasurer
come out of office with more cred
it to himself and the State than
will Mr.. Woodland, if be should
be the choice of the Legislature
We have heretofore spoken of Mr.
, Woodland and his qualifications
and we will only repeat, (as some
legislator who did not see oul
former notice, may see this thar
!, Mr.. Woodland is our old Circuit
, Court Clerk, and the members Of

Ia 1t is clear that the consel

"a It is clear that the conser-
vatives who have carried Virginia,
and voted so heavily against the
test-oath, will not be permitted by
their radical brethren to enjoy the
fruits of their victory. General
Candy is said to be anxious to be-
come one of the two United States
Senators from Virginia, and to
effect his purpose will insist upon
the use OF the voted down test
oath, thus excluding from their
seats the greater number of the
newly-eIected conservative mem
bers of the Legislature. Hence a
radical majority viii be secured in
both Houses of the State Capitol,
and federal Senators chosen to
suit. 1t was anything but wise
in the Virginia conservatives to
nominate men who could not take
the iron-clad oath, for even if Gen.
eral Candy suffered the Legislature
to assemble as il should, an unscru-
pulous Congress would promptly
insist npon rejecting the claims to
seats Of any but radical Senators.
The time has not yet come for the
sway Of justice. Her arrival is
sure, but her pace is steady.

iag Nail:
EDITOR or TIE TINES, Stills Majesty
Kamehameha ", King Of these islands, has
just been f4voured by the visit Of his Royal
HighneSs the Duke Of Edingburgh, and right
royalty did be aequit himself in the character
Of host to his distinguished visitor. He re-
eeiTed and entertained his guest in the best
manner his kingdom could AFFORD, and on his
departure loaded him with presents in
fact, be omitted nothing winch il was in his
power to do to render the Dukes visit agreea-
BE.
There are but few British residents on these
islands, but these few are second to none in the
world in the love they bear to their grand old
country and home; they rejoice in Eugiand's
prosperity, anu grisEe over her troubles; they
are proud Of her great men in all walks of life,
and Of their own right TO hail them as fellow
eo1ntrymen- They had looked forward with
pleasure 10 the visit Of the Duke, and fully ex-
pected that at least q oeputzti0n from their
ranks would have been allowed to express TO
him those sentiments which are ever upper
most in the British breast Imagine, then,
what was their disappointment when they
were given TO understand that not a single per-
son Of British birth could be admitted to his
presence, and that ball which was to be Civ
En- IN his honour was declined.
There i established under the perpetual
presidency Of Her Majesty representatives, in
these islands, an association for the relief Of
distressed British-born persons. 1t is called
the St George's Society, aud is supported By
annual contributions from the regular mem
berz, and occasional donations from visitors.
II vas supposed that the Duke, did be know
Of its existence. would desire that his name
EhOald Be inscribed on the list Of members. and
that be might, under St George, be named its
patron Her Asjesty's Commissioner was
spoken to on the subject, and was uuderstOod
to promise that he would name it to the Duke.
