Reconstruction in Virginia.


The first executive Recommendation on the
subject Of reconstruction lsays the Richmond
Wing of the l0th,) that has been regarded by
Congress with any sort Of respect is that con-
tanned in President Grants recent special mes
sage. The House promptly, and by the large
vote of 125 to "a, adopted his recommendation
and passed bill which gives him what be did
not ask-an almost unrestricted discretion over
the whole subject of reconstruction in the three
States of Virginia, Mississippi and Texas-and
this with the full concurrence Of the famous
Reconstruction Committee, whose jurisdiction
over the subject has hitherto been supreme and
exclusive This committee and the House have
paid President Grant the compliment of abdi-
eating in his favor The probability, as we
write, is that the Senate will pass the House
bill in spite of the recommendation of the Ju-
dietary Committee in favor of postponing until
December further action on the subject to which
it reates-a recommendation made, however,
before the House bill had been acted upon
Should such be the case the prospect Of getting
stable and satisfactory self-government in Yir-
ginia at an early day will be opened to US.
President Grant has paid Virginia the COM
pliment of making her the subject Of his first
special message to Congress asking legislative
action 1t is also fact to be noted that tli,
message is altogether free from dsagreeable
illusions to the past and from acrimonious
language and unhaudsOme epithets.
Whatever may be the final action Of the
Senate land it will be disclosed as soon as this
shall meet the public eyel, it is but just and
proper to say that the President has fully met
the expectations raised by his statements to
the several Virginia committees and delegations
that have waited on him from time to time
As he has kept his pledges, so should we keep
ours. When the constitution is submitted we
must take it, voting down only those prOscrip-
tive and oppressive clauses to which we have
so often alluded, and which We will be allowed
to vote upon separately.

baltimore and the valley Railroad.

We have heretofore mentioned the interest
which is felt in the Valley of Virginia in the
extension Of the Valley railroad from Winches-
ter to Salem, in Roanoke county, uniting it
with the Virginia and Tennessee railroad
The contemplated improvement viii pass lon
gitudinally through that famous Valley Of
Virginia which Volney thought garden
spot" and called the granary Of the country.
Individual Subscriptions have been made, in
dicating the general interest which is feltin
the valley on the subject, and spirited meetings
have been held in the counties which the road
is expected to pass through, for the purpose of
promoting the object, the result of which has
been voting by the people in favor Of county
subscriptions to the work. We learn by a
letter from Col. NJ. G. Harman, the president
of the road, that the section indicated is looking
to Baltimore for cooperation in the proposed
enterprise, as it will connect with our great
Baltimore line, and that the 2lst Of April has
been fixed upon for the delegations which have
been appointed from the counties of Roanoke,
Botetourt, Rockbridge, Augusta and Rocking
ham to proceed to this city and meet at the
Eutaw House, at 10 A. NJ, on the 22d instant,
to confer with the mayor, city councils and
citizens on the subject. The delegations pro-
pose to ask Baltimore to subscribe one million
dollars to the stock Of the road, provided the
counties on the line subscribe $1,000, 0oO.-
General R. f. Lee, Hon. A. H. II. Stuart,
Judge H. NJ. Shelley, Col. j. B. Baldwin and
other prominent citizens of the Valley are ex-
pected. Baltimore Sun

Return of Arnold and Spangler, the
Dry TortugaS Prisoners.

Samuel B Arnold aud Edman Spangler, the
prisoners recently released from the Dry Tor
tugas, under pardon of President johnson, the
former having been sentenced for life, the latter
for six years, by the military commission that
tried the assassination conspiratorS, reached
this city yesterday They came passengers on
the steamship Cuba, from Key West. Arnold
appears in rather delicate health, but Spanger
is well, and both seem in good spirits. They
are set free now, after three years and eight
months in durance vile"
On the terrible ordeal Of their trial, under
thecircumstances by which they weresurrouud-
ed, it is not to be supposed they would delight
to dwell Spangler says that from the tortures
he endured he was mostly unconcious Of the
proceedings in the case, and often knew moth
ing Of what was going on around him. When
the padded hood was placed upon his head in
prison, covering over his eyes and frightened
about his neck aud chest, with manacles al
ready on both hands and feet, be was told it
was by order Of Secretary Stanton the subor-
dinate thus excuSing himself for his action
After arriving at the fort, and up to the time
Of bis release, Spangler ayers that the sense of
his entire innocence only made his chains more

him from utter despair. baltimore Sun.

Virginia valley Railroad.

In the first branch of the city council, yes
terday, the president presented communica-
ton from: Mayor Banks covering the following
letter addressed to his Honor from NJ. G. Har-
man, Esq, president of the Virginia Valley
Railroad CO., dated Staunton, March o.
% The counties Of Roanoke Bottetourt, Rock
bridge, Augusta and Rockingham have ap-
pointed delegates to 90 to Baltimore on the 2lst
day Of April next, to confer with the mayor
and city council and citizens Of Baltimore, and
urge the subscription Of one million of dollars
by the city of Baltimore to the stock of the
Valley railroad, provided the counties and
towns On the line of the road subscribe ST.
100000; this being done, a first mortgage on
the road for thirteen hundred thousand dollars,
making in all three and half millions of dol
lars, will nearly, if not quite, complete the
road from Harrisonburg to Salem. We pro-
pose that the delegates from all the counties
shall meet at the Eutaw House at 10 o'clock
on the 22d of April, 1869. Please make the
necessary arrangements aud advise me-" The
mayor in his communication, recommends
that the council take some appropriate action
in reference to the subject matter of the letter,
and states that be would coincide with them
cheerfully The communication and letter
were read and referred to joint special COM
mittee of three from each branch, the president
appointing Messrs Crout, Carter and Arthur
on the part of the first branch.

A Robber Shot.
W. SPRAdUE.

A short time since, just at dusk, peddleT
carrying a large pack appeared at the door Of
a wealthy farmer in the town Of Green Garden
in this county, and requested the privilege Of
remaining over night The farmer being a.
way from home, he was informed by the hired
man that he could not stay. He then requested
the privilege Of leaving his pack until morning
as he was very tired aud could not carry it any
further that night. This was granted and the
pack deposited in one corner Of the sitting
room. During the evening some Of the females
of the household had occasion to move it, and
taking hold Of it discovered that there was
something suspicious about the contents.
The hired man was called, and, upon taking
hold Of it, found that it contained man. He
quickly stepped into an adjoining room, and.
returning with a revolver, motioned the family
to stand aside, and at once proceeded to fire
three shots into it. \ piercing shrek issued
from it, and on ripping of the outside covering
a man with large bowie-knife and a revolver
clinched in his hands was found weltering in
his blood. Two of the shots had proved fatal
The neighbors were alarmed, but no traces Of
the peddler who left the precious pack could
be found.-Joliet lIHl Signal.

Georgetown Again.

The Courier keeps up the spirits Of its read
ers in all It's utterances, and it will be strange
indeed if the business men Of the quiet old city
DO not catch the inspiration. In copying our
last article on the subject of the extension Of
railroads, the editor says
That 10 the near future bright prospect
is before the people Of this town admits Of no
doubt whatever. Few places, indeed, have
been 50 highly favored by Nature; for, at the
head Of Underwater navigation, in close prox-
unity 70 a rich agricultural region, delightfully."-
situated IN a healthy spot, with schools, col
leges, churches. hotels. and numerous other at
fractions to invite capital and labor, nothing
seems wanting but enterprise 10 make Of
Georgetown place equal TO any other for bus
iness, whether manufacturing, milling, or COM
mercial.
d" The general stagnation is Of course felt
here, and croakers are not wanting TO depress
where they should encourage. We possess all
the qualities necessary to make Of this city
busy hive Of neutrality-suspicious. Of large ex-
perience, with a sagacity which they inherited,
millers uuexcelled and scarcely equalled, cap
italists who are pushing with commendable
energy schemes to build up trade, ingenious
mechanics, and labor in abundance. With
the broad, almost illimitable, traffic which the
iron horse will shortly place at our doors, aud
the facilities for storage aud shipment as well
as for manufacturing here enjoyed, there is no
room for dependency Yet little while, and
thenow lowering clouds viii have forever passed
away the bright, eifulsent sun Of prosperity
will shine steadily upou us, and the deSpairing
win share equally with the most sanguiue in
the general activity"

Governor Ashley.

The inevitable Ashley, tbe great Impeacher,
though consigned to tbs shades Of private life
by an apPreciative constituency, who were
anxious that be should rest from his legislative
hbors, has again turned up into light and &C
tivity. as candidate for Governor Of Montana.
His name was sent into the Senate for that
position l4st week, and from all acccUntsr they
had "Aigh OlJ time over hiaa. in that au-
CAST body u sags Senators, his bitterest assaii-
ants beng Of the sane political faith. The re-
suli vas, that he was confirmed by only one
majority
We sincerely congratulate the citizens Of the
distant Territory over which he win preside,
upon having such an immaculate aud accom-
plished Governor. No official peculation ON
lis part or viuking at it in other officials, will
be c0uutenauccd. So look out all We Indian
Agents who fleece the poor red men, for Dan
icl has come to judgment!

What the Beast Demands.

The New York Journal Of Commerce thus
epitomizes the provisions Of General Buffers
southern disability relief bill:
Every ex-rebel who desires restoration to POI
litical rights is required to apply by petition 70
a court of the United States in the State or
Territory where he lived during the rebellion
Such a tribunal would probably do justice by
him more quickly than Congressional commit
tees aud. in that respect, the bill is good
enough. But beyond that we encounter only
the most offensive and Objectionable conditions.
The applicant is expected to tell Gin what
manner be bad given aid, comfort OF assistance
to the rebellion, either voluntary or involunta-
ry," going into the most minute and tresome
details. Having thus made perfectly clear
breast, he must say that be now believes and
confesses such acts we're wrong, rebellious and
wicked" and that he admits and believes
said governments THE rebel government, State
or Confederate, that's, to have beenrebellious
and reasonable, aud ought not to have been
sustained" and :" that be truly repents Of all
acts done by him in maintenance thereof, and
heartily desires to atone for any part he took in
the same by hereafter acting and conducting
himself as a true and loyal citizen of the Uni
ted States" These are the expressions of con-
triton and supplicatiun demanded.
