THE AMENDE.-We take it all back
Never again, il we can help it, will we
say aught against Orange. 1t is no.
BILE county, quiet but determined, new
or fussy but always firm and true. -
And you know what Carlyle say s-that
people who talk little but act vigorous
ly when time for action comes, are OF
people the best.
The native Virginian. [volume] (Orange Court House, Va.) 1867-187?, 1869-07-16

How They VoTED.-A telegram from
Richmond to the N. Y. Tribune says
that the negroes voted solid in favor of
the test-oath and DISTINGUISHING clause.
1t was not SO in this county. Very few
negroes voted for these clauses, And
it is but just to their leaders, Sanford
and BARLEY, to say that they advised
them not to vote for these clauses. In
deed we are told that Mr.. Sanford gave
Walker tickets to certain negroes who
applied tor them. Let justice be done,
though the heavens fall.

Won't LIKE IT.-There are some good
but naturally unforgiving men who will
not like the just words we have spoken
In behalf OF those who acted in the main
with our bitter enemies. Well! they
may take their course and we will take
ours. While life lasts we intend to for
give and keep forgiving. for God knows
and He only how much zoe need to be
forgiven.

How He BEHAvED.-As DR.. Bagby is
gone, poor fellow it may not be amlss
to state the simple fact that, on Thurs
day last when the mail came in and he
ascertained Walker had been elected
by $4,000 majority, he went into the
basement of the Courthouse and hol-
Tered ''glory !" until shutdown. He
then crawled out and being unable tc

mere wordy gratitude. It is not ne
cessary to say more at present.

GHOST gracious King
Most gracious Queent
The undersigned Members Of the Colonial
Council of st. Croix beg leave most submis
sively to present Your Maiesties, in behalf of
ourselves and of the Inhabitants of this ISL
and, our humble congratulations on the oc-
casion of the approaching Nuptials of His
Royal Highness Prince Frederik and Her
Royal Highness Princess Louisa of Sweden
Norway.
Your Majesties' West Indian Subjects have
on previous occasions expressed the hearty
interest they feel in the famiIy-events of Your
Royal House, and now more than ever before
may Your Majesties and the Danish People
rejoice and be happy, because the Nuptials
about to be c~OnSummated will not, as in the
case of previous Nuptials of Your Royal Off
spring, be attended with the saddening emo
tions at the thought Of separation now the
Royal Heir to Denmark's Throne chooses
His Bride from among a People intimately
connected with the Danish Nation by ties of
c~onsanguinity, of amity, and of mutual es-
TEEN, and when His Royal Highness intro
duces His Consort in His ancestral Home,
She will be received with favor and with love
by the Nation.
We pray that the blessings of Divine Pro
violence will attend the Connubial Bond that
will shortly be consummated between Their
Royal Highnesses, to the prosperity and hap
piness of Themselves, Their august Parents
and Relatives and the Danish Nation and
we hope, that Your Majesties may live many
years to witness the joys Of this Union of
Their ROYAL HighneSses.
These sentiments we beg Your Majesties
to consider as an additional evidence Of the

The Effects ofO Organization.

One of the most striking effects of the
results of organizationwas presented in
the late Presidential contest in Louisiana.
In that State on the registration stats
tics, the Radicals claimed majority of
$1,000; but the Conservatives deter
mined on victory. How did they accom-
plish it? They commenced the work in
the city of New Orleans Every con-
sentative in that city connected himself
with a club organization, no matter how
young or old.
They assembled, they paraded, they
showed their strength; and their num-
bers and their invincible spirit. These
clubs were the rallying points of the col
ored citizens, who wished the same boon
to the whites that they themselves enjoy
ed; freedom of speech, and political
equality.
They spared no time, no money, no
exertion. The enthusiasm spread like
wild fire. They had before them the
glorious example OF Mississippi In the
contest of June, '6S, and they won an
overwhelming victory.
Why is it that Vicksburg, jackson,
Brandon, Columbus, Natchez, Walden,
Winona, Aberdeen, Oxford, Holly
Springs, Canton, Yazoo City, and the
other prominent cities of Mississippi, do
not follow the example?
From City Clubs, Ward Clubs and
Beat Clubs, with Central county clubs
and work, work, work, if you do not wish
the life blood crushed put of you. En-
courage our colored fellow citizens to
join you. GiUe them protection, and win
this victory. 1t is in your hands.
