RsS' Again and again are our ears
lsaluted by the cheering cries that come
from afar and near. The last man that
stood off seems to have come into the
Walker fold. Is there one left? If so,
who. ard where is he? Must there not
be merit ii, the cause and in the ticket
that could draw SO many together and
excite such enthusiasm among them.

THE ELECTION.

Registration having been accomplish
ed the next work for our canvassers,
editors, superintendent, committees,
and the people generally, is to prepare
for the election. We trust this work
will be thorough-it will be best to go
the whole figure. All our work, up
to the present time, has been in favor of
the reconstruction of the State-shall
we now turn round and undo it all by
voting against the constitution i? Such
course would be to cast reproach upon
our former labors, and prove the work
of registration to have been accomp-
llShed not in the interest of the Union,
but for disunion-to widen the breach
and to dig it deeper which now sepa-
rates us from the General Government
and from union and equality with the
other States-not for reconstruction,
but for the present semi-military rule
under the governorship of Wells. Surely
our people will not be guilty of that
folly. With only two exceptions that
we know of, the entire press of the State
favor the adoption of the expurgated
constitution-with very lew exceptions
all our distinguished soldiers and emil
nent statesmen, from General Lee and
Governor Smith and Senator Hunter
down through the entire ranks, advo-
cate the adoption of the. expurgated
constitution.
That course is necessary to give the
government of Virginia to Virginians,
and rescue it from alien and negro
hands. That is the grand object, and
it can be attained by the adoption of the
expurgated constitution. Ia our re-
stricted choice that will do very we'll to
begin with, and then we shall have a bet
ter constitution than any of the hitherto
reconstructed States had to start with,
with full power to remodel it at our
pleasure. 70 attain this right will be
great victory for Virginia, and the
quicker the better. We must make the
adoption of the constitution SURE, er
else we have labored in vain through
all this canvass and spent QUE strength
for naught. Remember. by voting
against the constitution yon are also
voting against having a government of
the people in Virginia voting against
the Union against having Conserva~
tive Legislature. Distranchisements will
be continued /; test-oaths will brighten
and disqualify us; Wells will remain
Governor, Walker will be defeated;
your candidates for the Legislature will
be nowhere, and we will all have been
working for nothing. But vote for the
Con stitution and adopt it, and we shall
have a popular government, an accom-
plished and Conservative Governor :;
an able Virgiaia Legislature, which will
administer the constitution to the best
advantage of the people, and mitigate,
as far as possible, all its rigoes. Reject
it, and we go back to anarchy-adopt
it, and we emerge into the atmosphere
of self-government. Confidence will be
at once restored the material pros
perity of the State will be advanced
will at once rush in, agri-
culture, commerce and the mechanic
arts will receive new impetus and
the grand career of Old Virginia will
be onward and upward to
The perfect day.

HA- Ex-Governor Smith, in his
speech in King George county, on the
10Th, eloquently alluded to the respect
and admiration which the people Of the
South, and Virginia especially, had won
in the late struggle, and showed them
that the fair fame and Worldwide re-
nown which they had for patriotism and
devotion to liberty could only now be
vindicated and sustained by their action
on the 9th of July next, when, by the
united efforts of all true patriots, a great
triumph for the cause of civil liberty
might be achieved at the ballot box and
Virginia might again be redeemed re-
generated, and disenthralled. He dwelt
long and forcibly upon the iniquity of
the two expurgated clauses, and though
he disapproved of the so-called Consti-
tuition as whole, yet intimated that
if he had vote he would cast it for
the Constitution expurgated, on the
ground of expediency. He did not for
get the scaawags and carpet baggers,
for whom he seemed to have an especial
vial of his own. ....l. +e,

RES- From all parts Of the State we
hear the most cheering news. The
white people realize fully the import
ance, indeed the absolute necessity of
success at this election, and they have
gone to work to get it, A whole people
working with zeal, energy, unity, and
intelligence to attain certain object are
able to WELD an enormous power. Such
is the case now. The white people of
Virginia are determined to save them
selves from the degradation and ruin of
carpet bag government, and they are
going to do it. Such zeal and enthus-
iasm as has been brought to bear in this
canvass is bound to win. :

hey The Wilmington Star says: To
whatever source the result is attributable,
it is an undeniable fact that our Virginia
neighbors are cheating us to. death" in
the absorption of Northern capital and
labor. And, while it is partly due to
the want of confidence in cur present
State government, it is, in the main, at
tributable to want of energy in our peo-
pie. North Carolinians have always
been too modest, and too slow to advo-
cate their own claims. They have never
made an effort to bring the merits of
their State prominently before the pub
lie mind.
We trust this apathy is not to last
forever. Our claims to pablic attention
are too great to be utterly unknown
even though we continue the old policy
of "waiting for something to turn up
