Gov. Walker, Of Virginia.

Hon. Gilbert G. Walker, Governor elect Of
Virginia, had an interview with the President
| to-day which was eminently satisfactory. The
interview lasted an hour and half The Gov
ernor explained to the President the exact posi-
ton of affairs in Virginia and the nature of the
opposition with which he had to contend. Re-
ference was made to his speech in Richmond
the day after the election: and the President
said he endorsed all that Mr.. Walker then utter
cd, and expressed the hope and belief that all
that had happened would BE- for the best fer
the State and the country.
Gov. Walker SAID he would carry out strictly
the platform and policy upon which he had
been elected and that he meant to be Governor
OF Virginia, and would not be controlled bv anv
class of politicians He wanted the President
to disabuse his mind of all reports that were
circulated that he would allow himself to be in
fuenced BY the old politicians He avowed
himself a conservative republican, and said he
had fought the fight on republican principles
and 1t was not his purpose 10 desert his plat
form.
The President gave Mr. Walker unreseryed
assurances that he was pleased at the result of
the election, and when Mr.. Walker expressed
the hope that the administration would sustain
the State government of Virginia in perfectinp
what had been so auspiciously begun. the
President expressed himself without reserve in
favor of encouraging, 10 every possible way. the
only policy that could be of any avail in recon
structing the South. He promised also that
when Congress met he would recommend the
reconstruction of the State upon The basis mark
ed by the recent election Coy. Walker called
simply to pay his respects to the President and
it was the latter who preached the subject of
the Virginia contest, and he seemed anxious to
hear all about it. Gov Walker leaves to. night
for Bing champion, New York, his former home.

We desire, says the Lynchburg Mtellsencer,

We desire. says the Lynchburg Mteligencer,
to caution our people on one point. If they
think the work of reconstruction is all done.
and that We have nothing to do but to exult
over the result of the election, they are very
much mistaken. What we have done has got
to pass the ordeal Of President Grant and of
Congress. and powerful influences will be
brought to bear against US. First, the written
opinion of Gen. Candy in regard to the ineligi-
bility of members OF the Legislature is an OBJ
stacle to be overcome, and is now engaging the
attention of the President and his Cabinet
