THE MUNICIPAL MUDDLE-PRoBABLE MEET
ING OF COUNCIL ro-MoRRow NIaHr.-We learn
that the Municipal muddle. growing out OF the
fact that the majority of the members OF Coun-
c,l wanted the city Offices for themselves. and
the minority tho offices tor their sons, is likely
to be cleared up uuder compromise which
will give the offices to the cousins Of each fac
ton. At least, there is probability OF meet
ing Of Coun.l to-morrow night. Those MEM
bers holding the balance of power will be pre-
sent, and, it is understood, will side with
neither faction, but will endeavor to prevent
the adoption Of any measures which will be
preiudicial to the interests Of the city.

i" The People. !"


A telegram to the New York HOrtd from
this city, speaking of a movement here
against the election of senators in October,
states that it is urged "that senators chosen
"undcr present circumstances would not be
"the choice of the people !" Exactly
The "people" are always the ostcnsible
object of Difference, while their real adyan-
tage or comfort seldom enters into the cal
culation of the moves Oh the political chess
board.
Now, what DO the people want They
want perfect peace and rest from strife and
political agitation. They want order and
quiet mt home, good government, trust
worthy officers, well-ordcred industry, pub
lie improvement, general confidence and
prosperity. They know that these arc
things they cannot have as long as the
State of Virginia remains in her anoma-
lous position, and they desire to sec that
condition ended, and instead of it to have
her restored to the Union in the full enjoy
mcnt of her equal rights amongst the
States, and in full participation in all the
advantages of the General Government.
That is what the people want. Senators
arc nothing to them in comparison with the
acquisition of the solid benefits which must
flow to them Immediately after the rcstora-
ton of the State to her proper place in the
Union. The people are not candidates TOR
anything but the highest advantage from
their industry and enterprises of all sorts !;
and they would unanimously and indig-
nantly inveigh against any step that would
unnecessarily delay the accomplishment of
what is now of inestimable Importance TO
them.
The people, indeed Oh, let the people
alone The people pray for rest from all
sorts of men whose personal schemes arc
adverse to the solid interests of the coun-
try. They want immediate restoration
and, in our opinion, for the present at least,
they care nothing about mere persons, and
pray only for those measures and the Sc
lection Of those men likely to bring
about the speediest solution of their trou-
bles and the earliest restoration of their
State to the Union!
"The people !" What scape-goat they
are made, indeed

national harmony, the base-line OF political
strategy. 1t is the common platform upon
which the extremes must meet-partly
from necessity, partly from choice. 1t A.
fords the true line for reaching the sea from
the northwest and the southwest, and j
offers the conduit for supplies for the
Government in time Of war that Will
be equal to any possible demand OF
the national armies. 1t has the genial
temperatures, lovely scenery. ana 1oan-
tains of health, which must make hef
the place for the assembling annually
of the social congress of the ma.
ton. in which the national prejudices Will
be subducd, and the angular, rough points
of sectionalism rubbed smooth. Her arc
the latitude and the cline most taVoraole
for teaching and learning. Her schools
must become the fountains OF that descrlP-
ton of education which is frcest from mar
row views and narrow prcjudlces. Inc
Virginian scholar will be elevated above
the grovelling prejudices and blgot1cs OF
sectionalism. He will be q true statesman
taking into his mind the broad interests oi
the nation and the philosophy Of humanity,
unwarped by local prejudices and tanatlca'
theories.
So that, for refining and elcvating the
human character, for material develop
mcnt, for the forces which promote ma
tional greatness, for the adhesive strength
which must hold together the Union by the
kindly influences of interest and sentiment,
VIRGINIA is the theatre most deserving the
attention of the Federal Government, tho
field most worthy of its cultivation, and
from which it must derive the greatest re-
suits.
The question of rcviving the national
strength and infusing the national vigor
throughout the republic is one for Federal
statesmen to study. 1t is of the utmost i'm
portance. There must be no paralysis in
any part of the body-politic if we would
have a really grand nation. The revolu-
ton has increased the national RESPONSE
bility along with its power. The age OF ply
steal force and grandeur is begun. The
progress in that line must be impartial and
symmetrical, or the nation cannot reach the
point of greatest strength, which must be
that of greatest harmony and content
ment,-the voluntary impulses OF people
who live under q government whose mea-
surcs are unbiased by sectional favoritisn
and whose dispensations are characterized
by impartiality and affection.

Governor Walker.

This gentleman takes his seat to-day as
provisional Governor of Virginia, but with
the moral force of the endorsation by an
unprecedented majority of the people Of
Virginia as her constitutional Governor. His
position is most extraordinary. A stranger
in the State, he was nominated as a matter
of policy in the process of restoring Vir-
ginia to the Union. Exhausted by the try
ing and disastrous effects of the passions
and hates of war, and Of paying tribute to the
Federal Government and enjoying none of its
advantages, while governed by worse than
military authority, consisting of an absurd
and homogeneous commingling of the mill
tary power and its civil appointees, almost
wholly strangors-the greater part of whom
were utterly incompetent-the people were
prepared to sacrifice preferences, feeling,
and sentiment, and readily entered into the
proposal to give the strong proof of their
desire for restoration and their acQuiescence
in the measures of Congress by electing to
the 0lSt OllCc Ill tnC Eldtc u uldA NHOH
they did not know, and who was opposed to
them in the late civil strife.
They, however, became acquainted with
this gentleman in the campaign, and before
election-day they were more than recon
cilcd to step which had been one mainly
of policy. They were finally pleased with
Governor WALKER; they regarded him as
man of excellent judgment, fine talents,
and high integrity, and voted for him most
heartily. They felt that to his hands the
interests of the State might be safely con-
ided, and that through his moderate and
sensible theory of the restoration the way
to national harmony would be facilitated.
The selection proved fortunate. The peo-
pie all feel this, and Governor WALKER en-
tcrs the Government mansion hallowed by
past recollections with the hearty goodwill
OF the entire community.
He has little to do during his provisional
rule. The power over him is overshadow-
ing. He may appoint very few officers
possibly some proxies and directors-and

Mr.. STRoHECKER.-This gentleman, who
betrayed his confederatcs enlisted for the
Cuban revolution, has earned fame which
induces proper desire to get as far away
from him as possible. We are, therefore,
not surprised at the generous indignation
of n true cadet of the Virginia Military
Institute at the report which gives STEo-
uEcKEn the position of graduate of that in
etitution and native of Virginia. We give
place to his communi cation:

"To The Editors Of the Richmond Dispatch;
ain your issue of the Goth l find Ma
con letter to the New York Sun, in which
the writer speaks of Mr.. Z. j. Stro-
heckcr, Of Virginia, a graduate of the Lex

Military Institute and its alumni deem
it proper that | should correct the above III
