very much in conflict with authority which

paragraph is quite guarded. 1t does not
refer to the provisions of the bill in per-
uniting separate vote on parts Of the con-
stitution, but merely speaks Of "the cleo
ton now in prospect" For that, it declares
this State to be very much, indebted to
Governor WELLS. Even on that single

| man, whose word will not be doubted In
this community, frankly charged him with
his duplicity to his face. These are facts.
But what shall we say to the covert at
tempt to impart the belief that Governor
WELLS is in accord with the President IN
this election bill ? He is strongly opposed
to the object Of that bill. Before the
Reconstruction Committee in February he
declared that it would be dangerous to the
Republican party to submit the constitu-
ton in parts-that the constitution as 1t
was YVES indispensable to the safety OF
Union men in Virginia; and Mr.. WHIT
TLEsEY, editor Of the Journal, declared
that if the constitution were submitted in
parts, as the "nine," and General GRANT
after them, recommended, the Republican
party in Virginia would defeat the consti-
tutionl .t
Now, here this Journal has it that Go
vernon WELLS is working with General
GRANT, and that Virginia is indebted to
this Governor This is the coolest Of all
the incomparably cool things that have ap-
peared in this Journal newspaper.

The Enquirer is bent on robbing the nine
of all the credit duo for their efforts in
Washington. 1t prefers to credit anybody
else. 1t gives it to the WALKER party, and
would give it to anybody rather than con-
cede anything to the nine.' This is
all the result Of being committed, and of
having 6 COMMITTED the wrong of assailipg
a body of gentlemen, as devoted to Virginia
as any other Of her SONS, who endeavored
to save ninety per cent. of her white popu
lation from ostracism. The Enquirer is too
kind, too discriminating, to do such injus-.
tice but that it had been 8: committing
itself 80 much., Il will not own that the

Leans to take stand on their platform.

appeal they made to the President and to
Congress, which, like the channel cut TO

bed that guided the sweeping current and

Our OF TUNE.-The carpet-bag organ in
thisscity let's on smile and affects salts
faction at the bill providing for an election
in this State and the submission of the
constitution in separate parts to the people.
And this, too, notwithstanding that it's edi-
tor declared to the Reconstruction Commit
tee that such measure would be dangerous,
and the Republican party Of Virginia
would defeat the constitution if presented
in that way. The Winchester Journal,
however, edited by the carpet-bag nominee
for congressman at large, sings very diff
ferent song. We make the following ex-
tract from the comments of that paper upon
the bill while it was under consideration {:
"1There is but one opinion among Re-
publioans concerning the manner in which
this constitution should be submitted. The
committee Of nine wanted it. submitted in
sections, because they hoped thus to defeat
that part which bore hard on rebels. The
only reason why they did not desire it sub
mitted rs whole was that they were con-
WINGED it would be adopted, and they
thought if pulled to pieces before being
voted on there was chance Of defeating o
part of it. -
Wes-do not understand why rebels and
thoae who sought to destroy the Govern
ment should have such influence in Con-
gress. If this constitution is submitted in
sections it will be in response to their
wish--now their last hope-yet we do be-
lieve it will be done more because the
Walkerites ask it than because rebels have
asked it.. We do not believe the Republican
portion Of Congress is yet disposed to grant
thereQuests Of rebels in preference to those
Of loyal men. II done at all, it will be, be-
cause members and senators think the
opinion Of loyalists honestly divided on
this, point. Every effort should be made to
disabuse them Of this error. But whatever
may be the result, we should not forget that
the leaders of the little faction called the
respectable Republicans " in a very large
degree contribute to result most prejudi-
cial to the best interests of the State"

The Bill Passed.

The bill authorizing elections IN Viz
ginis, Mississippi, end Texas, as our
readers know, passed Congress on Friday
last. Tho senate's amendments were adopt
ed in the House at about IL o'clock at night.
Theee amendments make the adoption OF
the fifteenth article condition Of the adj
mission Of the three States into the Union
Of cqual States, and require q new regis
tration before the election.
The act Of making the adoption OF the tif"
teenth amendment new condition Of the adj
mission Of these States was most ungraceful.
Mr.. TRuxsULL properly characterized 1t as
breaking faith with the States named in the
bill, and this remark MAS strengthened by
the statement Immediately afterwards made
by Mr.. CosKLING that Virginia was unre-
presented from no fault of hers, but through
failure on the part Of Congress to provide
means for holding the elections. He
claimed, very justly, that che had an I'M
doubted right Of admission into the Union
on the same terms upon which the other
States had been admitted.
Thsgrand point in this important bill is
the opportunity it will afford our people of
delisering themselves from the shackles
forged for them By the Convention Of 1868,
with it's overwhelming majority Of negroes
and strangers. 1t will enable us to get rid
Of the test-oath, the county organizations,
and such monstrous clauses as the Presi-
dent. in his wisdom and fairness, may per-
NIT us to vote on separately. That the
people can defeat those provisions, If they
act wisely and tremendously, is beyond
question. And it would be an act Of blind
ness and madness for them to fail to do 80.
Preparation should be made with as
much promptness as possible to meet this
crisis in the affairs of Virginia, for We sup
pose, the President will order an election at
an early day. The Central Executive Com
mittee of the Conservative party organized
in December, 1869, will be promptly con-
vened in this city to consider the whole
matter. ....
We trust that the people of Virginia will
profit by their sad experience. In 1867
they lost the Convention by suicidal apathy
and sullenness. Some 10000 or $4,000
failed to register, and large portion Of
those who registered failed to vote. Of
course the Convention was handed over to
barbarism and treachery. Hence the
monstrous constitution which General
grant denounces, and the more obnoxious
features of which he declares ne should by
all means vote down. This is altogether in
our power. The people have only to reoog-
nize the solemn truth that the salvation Of
their State from the misrule of ignorance
nddishonesty depends entirely upon their
active participation in the elections. They
must register, and they must vote; and
theyymust use their whole influence in be-
halfsof the policy which will best insure
the harmony that is indispensable to tri-
umph. That done, the way is clear. Vir-
ginia will again enjoy good government, ad-
ministered by capable and honest men; all
her interests will once more flourish, and
herpeople be blessed with peace and album
dance. ....

CARL SCHuRz is, like all the rabid Red
Republican leaders in this country and
Europe, q visionary and enthusiast, I'M
restrained by sound morality and religion.
When he has ranted on the hustings about
the rights of man, he has chimed in pretty
well with the Black Republican fanaticism
Of the tines; but the moment anything
practical is entrusted to him it at oace ap-
pears that he has no constructive or orderly
capacities. Destruction is his forte, as it
ever has been of all like him.
In his new position of United States
senator he is lost, and is incapable of get
ting along even amongst those who have for
the nonce harmonized with his extrayagant
ideas. It is said that the people of Mis-
sonri are utterly dissatisfied with him, and
regret heartily his election. The letter.
writer's are all doing him up. It is said by
them that he has caused general complaint
on many grounds. The representatives Of
New York, Wisconsin, and Michigan, oil
seriously object to his pushing candidates
for office from those States. He has sue
cessively carpet-bagged in and out Of them,
and he now presses upon the President not
only his nominees from Missouri, but 8
number from those States where he had
thus briefly sojourned. A portion of his
nominees are understood to be broken-down
and exiled foreigners, bearing titles Of
various kinds.
The President has paid very little atten-
tion to the nominees of ScHURz, and so he,
too, is complaining. along with all the rest.
While these facts will not surprise any re-
fecting man who knew anything Of the
character of SCHURz, it must be admitted
that it is very well for the country that q
mad theorist, so plausible with the multi
tude, and yet 50 entirely untitled for the
practical business of government, should be
brought to the test. That settles his hash.
