after solemn and mature deliberation adopted
their declaration of principles, setting forth

this State and whereas in the said declaration
of principles the Convention, in its own Ian
guage, did distinctly declare that the govern
ment of the States and of the Union were
formed by white men to be subject to their con-
troll, and that suffrage should be so regulated
by the States as to continue the Federal system
under the control and direction of the white
race, and that in the opinion of this Conyen-
ton the people of Virginia will sincerely CO.
operate with all men throughout the Union, of

store the constitution of the States and to con-
tinue its government and those of the States

might be. Such was the honest position OF
every citizen: no man had right to profess al
legiance to the Government and at the same
time carry in his bosom purpose OF defeating
it. 1t was his duty as good citizen, whenever
an alternative presented itself, to avail himself
of the privilege to VOTE and cast it for the eleva
ton and improvement of the country 1t this
was not conservatism, what did the word mean ?
When the reconstruction acts were first sub
United to our people they were resisted by vote,
persuation, and appeal, and as long as there
was hope for the future he had been as earnest
in the determination not to yield to them as
was the gentleman from Fauquier. Bat when
the only party that professad any friendship
for us was utterly routed, it was rendered i'm
possible that we could resist these measures
The Republican party, backed by an overwhelm,
ing popular majority, had taken pos. esslon OF
the Governments, State and Federal, and of
every department of the Government. What,
then, was the part of common sense! Does
not the business man base his calculations upon
the probable chances for the future? Did any
sane man believe for moment that there would
be shadow of chance for reversing the YER
dict Of the people in favor OF negro suttrage!-
Any man who knew of any chance OF escape
from it should by every consideration OF duty
to his fellow citizens ring out his knowledge so
that it could be heard and understood, and we
reach out for the great boon of deliverance. =
Had any one proposed any practical plan to
avert negro suffrage? No. The only cry was,
"Vote down the constitution and elect With
ers!' He would gladly vote for Colonel With
ers if it would avail anything provided there
should be a vacancy (pointing to Governor
Smith, But he considered that it would be
trihing with Colonel Withers and with the peo-
Pile to east their votes in this way, when every
body knew that negro suffrage could not be
voted down.
As to the effect of the committee of nine in
disintegrating the Conservative party, the gen.
tleman knew well enough that no popular lead
er could divide party nor make popular seDtl-
ment. In this instance, as it always was, the
committee had only expressed what had already
existed in the public mind, and had been boil
ing over with Impotence for expression.

OuE CONSOLATION. There are two
great pillars that bear us up amid the
wreck Of misfortune and misery. The
one is composed OF the different modi,
fications OF certain noble, stubborn
something in man, known by the
names of courage, fqrtitude, magnani-
nifty. The other is made of those feel
ings and sentiments, which however
the skeptic may deny them, or the en-
thusiast disfgure them, are yet origin
al and component parts OF the human
soul; those senses Of the mind, which
connect us with and link us to those
awful obscure realities-an all power
full and equally benefcient God, and a
world to come beyond death and the
grave. The first gives the nerve Of
combat while ray of hope beams on
the field the last pours the balm of
comfort into the wounds which time
can never cure. t
