The native Virginian. [volume] (Orange Court House, Va.) 1867-187?, 1869-02-26


Christ Jesus, whose service is perfect
freedom; and in his broad charity reck-
oned single spark of true piety sutfi-
| eient TO ensure salvation of Him who
died that men might be saved.
He inherited in large, measure the
physical and moral courage of his faith
err; inherited alse that subtle ard cana
cious intellect, the incessant activity OF
which shook to pieces the fine tenement
In which It WAS lodged. AS part of
this strength, he inherited alas that
immense tenacity of life which belongs
to his race SO that when the arrow of
death pierced his armour in the thick
Of the light, he fell not at the blow, but
fingered long months in such agony
that even those who loved him best were
fam to cry from the heart ,'''thank God ~
when at last, the terrible pangs all end
ed, the peace which passes understand
ing overspread his noble brow, and the
unimprisoned spirit ofthis strong y Dung
soldier of God sped TO his Fathers man
sion and to the lovely children who had
gone before. Triumph and everlasting
peace to him; to them who cannot fol-
low, patience and hope, sweet and as
sured hope,
There is a bill before the Wisconsin
Legislature making the attendance at
school of children between 8 and IA
years of age compulsory. 81
~ And Freedom shrieks whene'er these
children yell.

journalist Virginia ever produced-has
a wider range of knowledge and more
versatile pen-excels in everything.

that we have been familiar with his doc

Mr.. Jas. Gordon Bennett requests us
to exchange with the Herald. We COM
ply as condescendingly as would the
Round Table, and do not desire the pub
LEGATION of our prospectus. Tue adver-
tisements of the Herald are numerous
and generally well-written, and we
will exchange with emotion.

The trial of this cause brought before
the court reflections which were sad
indeed. Our poor, beloved Virginia
was only now illustrating tie old cs-
tablished tact that wrong doors in the |
cad suffer more from the effects of their
evil actions thanthose upon whom those
wrongs We're inflicted The low and
miserable prejudices of aristocracy had
been so long and so dsgracefully ex-
libited IN this community, where rot
tenness and drunkenness and corrup-
ton had run riot through all classes,
even up to the pulpit, it Is now soliice
of congratulation that an opportunity |
had presented itself to rebuke it efiec- |
tually. Immigration to this State here
.ofore has been impossible, because OF |
the constant exhibition by our people 1
Of the petty and disgrsceful forms OF |
lrstocracy. They must be crushed out
before we can occupy an honorable po-
'ition in tae eyes OF the world and it 10
he duty of this jury to render such a
1erdi'.t as Shall be warning aud IN ex-

Day is breaking. When the bill to re-
distribute the currency came up in G on
,ress, the South and West were found
pulling in harness together for the first
lime. Seward predicted this coalition
wo years ago and wanted to unite the
Cast and the South against the West.
S9go-too late-the die IS cast.
The bill requires a redistribution of
he bank currency-one hundred and
fty million OF dollars upon the basis of
epresent ttion, and one hundred and
fly millions upon the basis of appr;lis-
d value of all property, real aud per-
0nal. ',ila
The effect of this measure, II passed, =
radcal-will give the West, it is
longht, thirty five millions more of
regulation than at present, and the
onth at least forty millions in all.
