CRITICISMS.

No Administration is above criticism
nor is it above criticism by its own
friends. We should regret to see the
day when everything an Administra-
ton may do should receive the fulsome
laudation of the entire party press.
Such toadyism on the part Of journalists
would work mischief; but when the
press. in order to show its independence
and to find fault, descends to mean
personalities, il-natured filings, and
tiippant twaddle, in the shape of criti-
cisms that have no point, instead of
showing an independence, it manifests
an ill-temper not creditable to its hon
esty orssintelligence.
Criticisms upon an Administration,
if effective and truthful, must be called
forth by other and higher principles
and motives than that of chagrin, which
grows out of the appointment of one
man or set of men to office, and the re-
lection of others.
We shall set up no defence of the
present Administration on account of
its appointment of this man to Office
and the rejection of the other. In its
bestowal of public patronage we believe
it has acted as wisely as any other Ad-
ministration under similar circumstan-
ces could have acted; and in this regard
we think il may challange comparison
with any of its predecessors.

Eustace Gibson, Esq, is candidate
for the State Senate in the Botetourt
district, upon this platform:
81 am satisfied that it is folly longer
to resist reconstruction on the plan of
Congress, and think, therefore, that we
should not waste our energies upon a
hopeless cause, but devote them to efforts
that will produce good. l think it
advisable, by accepting the constitution,
to unite with all good men to strike out
the obnoxious clauses. This we can 10.
But if we resist all compromise we will
inevitably have all evil forced upon us.
If elected to the Senate shall also vote
for the fifteenth amendment tc the con-
stitution of the United States, for the
reason that it will give greater surface
for this amount of evil to spread itself,
and therefore make it less severe in its
effects upon us and also for the added
reason that l believe it will eventually
rid US entirely Of the Whole evil; for then
the whole country sufferin g the same
curse will unite to remove it,

KEEP IT BEFORE THE CoLoRED
PEOPLE.

The pride of the Virginia negroes
about here has been aroused. The
Wells ticket is distasteful to them.
They say there was no earthly necessi-
ty for ignoring the whole of the native
blacks and selecting carpet-bag negro
for the second Office in the State. They,
the native blacks are called on to do all
the voting on the Wells ticket, and as
mockery, one of their color has been
put on the ticket, but only as mockery,
as there are thousands of native negroes
as we'll if not better qualified for the po-
sition than the Ohio negro, Harris, the
claims of all of whom have been ignored
and he advanced over their shoulders.
The native negroes know that the re-
construction laws make it essential for
the white natives to select Republican
who has never been compromised by the
war, to run on their ticket, and they
also know that those laws do not make
it essential to nominate negro carpet
Dagger, because they, the native blacks,
are just as eligible to the Office under
those laws as Harris, or any other negro
from abroad who may squat down here
in Virginia, for the sole purpose of run
ming into Office through the negro vote.
We don't blame them for rejecting the
Wells ticket on this account, because it
is we'll known we have a number of me-
groes in Virginia quite as capable fo1
position as the black trash from abroad
However they feel the affront to their
native pride herea bouts, and it will be
hard matter for the Wellsitcs to smooth
matters over to their satisfaction On this
point

THE CROPS IN THE SOUTH.

We may pour such political balm into
our wounds as we may see fit we may
mend our torn coat with political patch
es our wounds will not heal, nor our
coat hold together We must do some
thing more; we cannot live by politics;
it is not an all healing balm. So at this
time, when all attention is being paid
tons at stake, it is well 10 keep ever be-
fore the Poop the importance of their
material interests, and to persuade the
people Of the truth that in the develop
ment OF that interest is to be found the
true way to Obtain, not only the salts
factory and complete reconstruction of
the South, but also that position Of
Southern independence, which, in the
sight of the Southern people is so pre-
cious. They have had much to contend
with in the last four years, but they have
risen superior to adversely. The clouds
which have been hanging over the po-
Htical horizon fer SO long tine are
breaking away, and from all parts of
the South the crops are giving signs of
an abundant harvest.
Much of our future political welfare is
contingent upon proving ourselves &C
tive producers, and consequently valua-
ole as customers to those who hold our
destinies in their hands. However hear-
tily men may hate, they seldom are
willing to cut off their noses to spite
their faces. Thus large crop, both for
consumption and export, is Of immense
political significance to the people of the
Southern States, irrespective of the indi-
vil!ual comfort and independence that
it will bring to the producers. Then let
every arm be barred and every nerve be
strung in the present battle with mother
earth for her hidden treasures,
We are glad to hear that nearly all
our planters are paying special atten'
ton to their grain crops. They are be-
ginning to realize the truth that with
an abundance of provisions all else that
is made is so much clear of expenses
and if the latter should be but little it
will bring quite as much money as a
full crop,
These remarks are generally applica-
hle to the Southern States, if our infor-
nation is correct, and we congratulate
our struggling countrymen upon the
prospect of plenty and independence
before them Should Providence smile
upon their labors the present year, with
the skill, energy and resolution they
have embarked in the cultivation of the
soil and other branches of industry, they
cannot fail to rise above misfortune and
through themselves make their country
| respected at home and abroad.
1t will not be long before the vexeo
| questions which COW agitate the politi.
| cal world will settle themselves. In the
| political papers of the North We already
see signs of a change Of base, and the
introduction of new political issues
Where short time ego reconstruction
was the burden Of every political song,
now we fad protection and flee trade
creeping in and taking place. 1t will moi
be long after Virginia, Texas and Mis-
sisaippi shall have gone back to Congress
before the old reconstruction curtain
will be rolled up, and new politica
drama will be presented with an entire
new scenery, equipments and effects.

II is known that Wellsdesires to be
Senator for Virginia, after he shall have
enjoyed, for season, the honoIs and
emoluments of the Governorship. If he
should be elected Governor, the vote
that would constitute him such would
inevitably secure Radical Legislature.
In that case, be would have the inside
track. He would SO manipulate the
Legislature, -hesitating at nothing to
effect his purpose,-as to secure the re-
turn. He would have an additional in
centive to vacate the Office OF Governor,
in the fact that he hates the people of
Virginia, Knowing that he is heartily
detested by them,-and would further
humiliate them by placing negro Gov
ernor over them. Between Wells and
the negro the choice is small. But then
he is white man, although unworthy
of his race. The degradation is not quite
go great as it would be to have a negro
ruler, duu no oven vHgtuIa nIS,
ger.
Unless, therefore, our people want a
negro Governor, invested with greater
power than any Governor of Virgin ia
or enjoyed,-being not only conman
der-in-chief of our military forces, but
having a veto power over all the acts OF
the Legislature,-they must bestir them
selves to procure the defeat Of TIE mon
grel ticket.-Lyuchburg Virginian.
