HOW IS 1T NOW :?

We published yesterday, without
note or comment, the letter from J. w.
Jenkins to Dr. G.. K. Gilmer, and the
reply of the latter We now desire to
draw public attention to the following
passage in the reply, which is pregnant,
and worthy of particular note : ....
"You ask for coalition of the two
wings Of the Republican party. l can
not admit that the party is divided. On
the contrary, claim that the Grant
Walker party is the National Republic
can party of Virginia, representing the
policy of the President and of Congress,
and as such has no divisions to heal"
We are united now for the recon-
struction of Virginia, and by our votes
we have accomplished that result. Of
course, victorious party, like ours,
would be DESTROYS of concert of action
among all parties and classes in the
great work of restoring Virginia to her
place in the Union, and of emancipa-
ting all her people, so that we may
have the benefit of their counsel and
their votes for every good and useful
purpose in the future. If the Wells
party, composed of $4,000
negroes and few whites, will aban-
don their opposition to Virginias re-
construction on the plan of Universal
Suffrage and Universal Amnesty, which
Congress authorized and President
Grant supported, we'll and good. They
will then unite with the National
Republican party of Virginia." who

Bga. Col. Forney in his latest "Oc-
casional" letter from Washington to the
Philadelphia Press discourses as fol-
lows: There has been so much frank
ness on Colonel Walkers part, and on
the part of his supporters, in accepting
the situation, and especially in declaring
their unalterable purpose to sustain the
acts of reconstruction and the measures
of the national administration, that it
would seen. exacting not to regard it as
sincere. Such is the decision of our
friends in Virginia, and by that de-
cision we cheerfulIy and gratefully
abide. 1t is to be hoped that the ex-
ample will be met in the proper spirit,
and that when Congress moota nothing
will have been done in the meantime at
variance with the honorable pledges Of
the one side and the equally honorable
concession of the other

Hkp Mr.. Mill is the great British
advocate Of woman's rights, or woman's
supremacy, we don't know which. But,
does Mr.. Mill believe in the revealed
truths of the Bible perhaps not;
but. even so, let him turn to the third
chapter of Genesis, and, at the sixteenth
verse, he will find these words : "Unto

neA. The monthly report of the De-
partment of Agriculture for July has
just been printed. Notwithstanding the
heavy rains and the low temperature,
the reports concerning the wheat crop
generally, are favorable, Kentucky, West
Virginia and Virginia producing the
best average crop; while in Wisconsin
and several of the Northwestern S-aJes,
tbo crop is considerably below the ave-
rage. Inc prospects for the corn crop
are fully up to the general average.

The credit of carrying the State by
SO triumphant majority at the recent
election is claimed by or for a great
many people"
Thus writes the Richmond Dispatch,
which at one time Qong before the cleo
tion) partially acknowledged the DAY
Books claim to the authorship of the
new movement" being doubtless fa-
miliar with the fact that we were the
first to suggest the very means to in
augurate the measure that was carried
out by the Committee of Nine" viz:
That committee be sent to Washing
ton, to prevail on the authorities to au-
thorize a vote to be taken by the people
Of Virginia on the Alexandria Constitu-
ton with an additional clause securing
negro suffrage. This suggestion we
, made and repeatedly urged while every
thing was in great state Of dread and
confusion. After four or five weeks
!" Philos" came to our assistance, with a
slightly different programme then
|" Senex;" and then we don't know how
many others, including the Dispatch.
| We only claim to have set the ball
in motion" in the first place, and can
prove all we claim by reference to our
files. Most any one could stand the
egg on one end after Columbus showed
them how. But the chow" was what
bothered them first. lHf.5i Il. =
| The Dispatch says, very truly, that
ga defeat would have put different
face on affairs, and very much have d.
minished the desire Of gentlemen to
publish the relation they bore to the
liberal party" This, we think can
scarcely be charged against the DAY
BOOK, because we claimed the author

! ly when it was not by any means pop
ular, and at time when the Dispatch
thought we Were not unlike the whist
ling lunatic in claiming a measure, the
success of which still remained doubt
full. ist ss .ass eos
The Dispatch then proposes, that
the question as to who was first to
point out the way to victory shall be
referred to the committee on gas, and
| that the contestants before submitting
| the grounds of their contest shall re-
nounce their claims to Office" As we
are not an applicant for Office, having
one of our own which we esteem much
| higher than any within the gift of the
people of the State, provided there
were more "spons" incoming from it,
we don't know that we should object
to the proposition, provided that every
contestant we, by our evidence, shall
defeat in the claim, shall be compelled
to enter into thorough canvass of the
entire State, at their own expense, for
new subscribers to the DAY Book, until
they secure us eight or ten thousand
more,as partial recompense for our sa-
gacity in devising means for the peoples

The new movement" is A MATERIAL
PROSPERITY MOVEMENT throughout.
We invented the machinery of the
"new movement and of course we de-
sire to secure our part of the MATERIAL
PROSPERITY flowing from its success.
