The Cons titutional Amendment.


In the matter Of the ratification of the
fifteenth constitutional amendment as con-
dition precedent to the admission Of this
State to representation on the floor of Con-
gress it should be borne in mind that the
people at the polls are not to vote upon it.
The question is for the decision of the Legis-
lature, and must depend upon the opinions of
that body, and the circumstances by which
it is surrounded when it casts its vote. The
main question for the people will be as to
the constitution whether they will adopt it
relieved of certain obnoxious features. If
they think it better to restore the State under
the constitution thus pucged than to cast
her, and themselves with her, back upon
the broad ocean of uncertainty, on which
we have had such long and disastrous
voyage, they will vote against the obnox-
ious clauses and for the constitution re-
lieved of them. After this they must en-
deavor to select es their public officers and
representatives those who are most availa-
BILE and most to be trusted Of all that are
presented for their suffrages.
The people will have quite enough to dc
in these matters to call for the exercise OF
their best judgment and their most ardent
devotion to the public welfare. 1t is very
well that the question Of the constitutions!
amendment ia not added to the complica'
tions Of this extraordinary election.

,nattar. For this reason / was silent when
tho Conservative press oil over the State
denounced me az thief for not telling how
7 came in possession Of the letter.
short time after, Samuel came up to
ask me TO recommend him Tor common
vealth's attorney of Chesterfield county. l
told him that he must first have the rec ON
mendation of the State Central Committee.
| then asked how We were getting on politi-
cslly. Capitally," said he; " capitally:
Every member Of the committee is friend
of YOURS" CT am delighted to hear it," !
rejoined; and then took the liberty OF
showing him my copy of the letter he had
written to Allan. Before God, cant
deny that did write that" said Samuel !;
"but. indeed, Governor, am ashamed OF
it. Allan got me into that scrape." 80
much the worse" said I; "you are like
Adam, who meanly laid the blame on Eve.
That's worse than writing It." TO-
vernon" said he, "that is my first, and l
hope it will by last, offence"
AND NOW CONES ALLAN.
eoon after, Allan came to see me, and he,
too. wanted an Office. He asked me to re-
commend him for Secretary of the Common
wealth which I refused to do. He then
asked the place of clerk, and l told him
the clerk was chosen by the Secretary.
After some further conversation he asked
me if didn't have letter Of his in my
possession. Ireplied that / did have copy
Of it, and showed it to him. He begged
that I would not say anything to Samuel
about his speaking to me about the letter,
as they had made an agreement to come to-
gether to see me about it. What was my
surprise, an hour or two after, when they
did come up together, to have Allan come
I'D and shake hands as if he had not seen
me before for month. They demanded to
see the letter. Ishowed it to them, and re-
fused to give the name Of the party who
sent it to me, and never heard any more
about the matter until the Petersburg Con-
vention.
EVIL THAT GOOD MAY COME.
The truth is, the charge Of tampering
with the correspondence of these men was
trumped up in order to injure my reputa-
ton.
A Voice: 1t will make you, Governor.
The Governor No, I hope that will not,
but something else will. l really believe,
though, it will help me.
Governor Wells concluded with an urgent
appeal to the people to register, vote, and
to exercise every other right of freeman.
He was followed by Mr.. Chandler in
few remarks, and Fields Cook (colored) and
G. H. Porter (white) neither of whom said
anything worth reporting.

a CHANGE FOR TIE BETTER.-The act
OF Congress just passed provides that the
returns OF the elections to be held soon in
Virginia shall be made as prescribed by
the reconstruction acts. The original bill
provided that they should be made as pre-
seribed by the USDERwooD constitution,
which required them to be sent to the in
famous UNDERWOOD himself. We know not
who caused this change to be made but in
the name Of the people Of Virgins we
tnank HIM for relieving US from the power

The Public EFFICIENCY.

The State Of Virginia has been passing
through fearful ordeal for four long years.
She has during that time been suffering
nneh humiliation, while her material IN
,erss.s have been steadily tending towards
inter- ruin. All has been uncertain ana
.hsre has been no solid ground for CONT
asrce and little or nothing to inspire hope.
Tndnstrv has been disorganized, and the
vant Of means for Improvement and to pay
for labor has been steadily increasing. me
Government at Washington he's disbursed
next to nothing amongst us, while its heavy
taxes have drained the country. We
greatly swell the volume Of distress Shen
we add to this the sweeping out Of the omees
Of the sta.e-the turning adrift men with
families. many Of them old and unskilied
n anv vocation whereby TO earn iiveli-
hood 8 condition Of extreme peril at o
time like this.
No man who is not q sharer in the
prostration wrought by these causes can at
Gil appreciate its true character. The
question for the people Of Virginia is, How
long shall it continue, with its constantly
increasing misery and calamityf The peo-
ME have been reduced to the last extremity
Of endurance and continued submission
70 this state Of thipgs must ere long crush
thousands with a ruin from which probably
hut a few of them will ever be enabled to
recover. A large part of them ore past the
age Of recuperation. With what they haVe'
should the State be restored with trust
worthy government, inviting o renewal OF
confidence, and energy, and hope, they may
save themselves and go on with spirit and
industry to rebuild their fortunes; but
without that adyentitious event they will
fall, and the State will lose the benefit Of
the enlightened energy Of some Of the best
and most trusted Of her citizens.
The people of Virgins have now the
chance to relieve themselves from their sad
condition by securing the early restoration
Of the State under the law just passed BY
Congress. They have but to vote down the
obnoxious clauses which the President will
indicate, and adopt the constitution thus
purged. It twill be altogether an endurable
constitution with the valuable feature Of q
veto by the Governor. With this constitu-
ton, and State Executive commanding the
confidence of the people at home and CAPT
talists abroad, in six months there will be
such change for the better as the most
sanguine cannot anticipate.
All this is entirely within the power Of the
people Of Virginia easily to accomplish. Sup
pose they reject the opportunity, and fail to
achieve this great good for themselves and
the State, where are we? Who can imagine
the woes that must flow from prolonged
detention in the dark valley where we have
80 long remained ? Who con, in financial
sense, live through it Who can imagine
limits to the ruin that must overtake all
public and private interests And still
worse than all, who can tell what sort Of q
constitution we may, after all, be compelled
to live underY

THAT MISSING LETTER.
He the Governor) had been much abused
in regard to that letter, and wished now to
state the facts as briefly as possible.
Samuel, in Richmond, had written and
mailed letter to Allan, in Farmyille. AL
Ian got his mail, and was seen sitting in the
post-ofice looking it over. A young man
named Davids saw him, and after he went
out, picked up letter which Allan seemed
to have dropped. Reading it, he found it
to be very silly effusion attacking certain
prominent Republicans. Next day he
showed it to sergeant of the Twenty-frst
infantry, who remembered it perfectly.
After that, Davids heard that Mr.. Zincke
was going to Richmond, and gave him the
letter, soiled and dirty as it was, to show to
him. zincke did not know the Governor
personally, SO he gaveit to amutual friend
and that is the way it got to the Executive

GLORY TO GOD {!

Here the Governor remarked, incidental
ly, that, "Glory to God, since we last met,
we have received another military COM
mander." He had been taught never to
strike man when he is down, but he did
rejoice that we now have commander who
will let politics alone, but who, if he does
interfere, will be sure to mingle on the right
side. Thinking Of stoneman led him to
sneak of
