RECONsTRUCTION IN VIRGINIA.
We observe that the Richmond Enquirer
has made bitter attack upon the committee
OF Virginia Conservatives, who are now In
this city for the purpose Of influencing Con-
gress in regard to some notifications In the
reconstruction policy. We do not know the
men who constitute the committee, but a nun.
Der of them, as was well as many who back
them, were once men of high standing in the
Old Dominion. The Enquirer seems deter.
mined to carry out its rebellious and wicked
spirit to the bitter end, and to die game
Well, letit.
We are glad these men have come. Their
visit will do neither themselves or the mem
bers OF Congress any harm. Their mingling
with the members may mollify many asperi-
ties, and may lead to q better appreciation OF
the situation on both sides. But we trust
that they will not be disappointed II they do
not obtain what they seek, and we sincerely
hope that they may not attribute any un-
friendliness towards them on the part of Con-
gress II 1t does not accede to their proposals.
There is one view Of this question Of recon-
struction, as 1t has been propounded by Con
gress and as 1t now stands, which these people
must deliberately consider in coming to the
proper conclusions as to what Congress ought
now to do 10 the premises. 1t is this: recon.
struction upon the congressional plan is now
a hxed fact In seven OF the States; and that II
10 not SO in Virginia Is the fault alone Of heI
people. These gentlemen, therefore, eAnno
blame Congress for not yielding to thei
wishes. That body having carried Its grea
and salutsry measures thus far, must, of neces
sity, insist upon applying the same principle
to all conquered territory. This Is fair AM
honest proceeding on the part Of the Govern
ment, and one upon which 1t can take no back
ward steps.
We understand the trouble to be with thes
Conservative gentlemen that rather unpalata
BILE document known as the Underwood
constitution. They think 1t imposes hard
ships which ought not to be imposed upon tn
white people OF the State. In other words
they think 1t will give the political control o
that Commonwealth into the hands OF th
blacks. This is not SO, as we all know, be
cause were every colored man In the State Il
vote for 1t, they could not secure its adoption
and continuance without the cooperation o
alarge number of whites. This Is a settleC
fact. Virginia hae q large white population
and this class must inevitably exert a con
trolling influence upon the destlnies OF the
Old Dominion. 1t cannot be otherwise. Tha
there are quite a large number Of white men
In Virginia who are disfranchised, is true
That by patient waiting and continuance in
well-doing they will soon be enfranchised, is
equally true
Our advice is to Virginia, adopt your consti-
tuition and organize your State, and all will be
well.

a great seaport, and is deplora-
BILE that the people of every
part of Virginia should not
concentrate their energies upon
the development Of a city the
growth of which would contri-
butte immensely to the wealth
and power Of Richmond, and
to all the outlying country.
Any other State, with such a
locality within twelve miles of
the sea, with which it is in d.
rect water intercourse, capable
of floating ships of the largest
size>to it's shores, would sink
all sectional or local feelings
and jealousies.
But Norfolk is fortunate not
only in her extraordinary wa
ter facilities, and for the cheap
transportation of merchandise,
but in the numerous railroads
that are tributary to it from the
great West. AS Professor
Maury, perhaps the very best
authority on the subject, says,
Norfolk is superior to New
York in all the advantages of
back country, harbor, sea, and
commercial situation, andagain,
as for back country, with re-
gard to extent, fertility and
material resources, there is no
sheet of water in the world that
has tributary to it such sources
of commercial wealth as the
Chesapeake, with it's fine har-
bor,' and that Norfolk is the
best seaport town for most of
North Carolina, besides a large
portion Of North Georgia, Ala
bama and Mississippi and the
Southwest

NORFOLK.

The Raleigh Standard gives
an extract from letter written
by Col. John W. Forney, re-
garding Norfolk and her ad-
vantages as commercial city,
and he says: Situated as Nor
folk is, that city is one OF, if
not the greatest, natural out
lets Of North Carolina, and
anything regarding her future
interests will be of interest to
our people. In such matters we
do not wish 50 see narrow local
prejudices cripple our COM
merce, but want to see Nor
folk made what she should be
the chief commercial city OF
the South. The interests Of
North Carolina and Norfolk
are identical, and such will
benefit by the others prospect
ty. Col. Forney says:
The prosperity of Norfolk
presents a strong contrast tx
the dullness of Richmond. IT.
future is established. Nothins
can prevent it from becoming
