THE New York Tribune is graft
fed at the confirmation of Gen.
l Ongstreet by the Senate, and de-
cIares that it is a proclamation OF
amnesty to every one who has in
good faith renowned the lost
cause" There are hundred thou
sand, men in the South who have in
equally good faith with Longstroet,
renowned the lost cause, who
are not even allowed to vote. Per
haps if they were Radicals they
would fare better.

Radicals that Stokes is still in the

the Governorship, but claim to be true

1t is evident that the action of the
Radicals of Cumberland county
created something of o sensation
about Chattanooga. They feel
that the report going out that
Stokes had declined the use of his
name in connection with the nomi-
nation for Governor, would be
ruinons, and hence the letter writ
ten by the editor of the Republican
to draw him out. Stokes writes a
rather curious letter. He has never
had any aspirations for Governor,
but he is very careful, lest his Rad
ical brethren should think he
meant what he said, to suggest
that if the nomination shall be
rendered to him by the convention
he will not feel at liberty to decline
| it. OF course not. 1t would be a
grievous disappointment if the con
vention should not tender him the
! nomination. Since the failure of that
little experiment he made to get
into the United States Senate, his
ambition has been steadily fixed
upon the Governors office. His
"private letter" from which the
editor Of the Republican extracts,
shows that he yearns for that posi-
ton as the painting fawn does for
the water brook. There was no
need for this assurance that Stokes
is still in the ring.

MADRID, October 1.-THE Epocd
to-day publishes o synopsis of the re-
ply made by Minister Silvela to the
note of Gen. Sickles. Senor Silvela
says reasons, dictated by national dig
nifty, prevent the acceptance of for
eign mediation in a domestic affair.
The intimations made by Gen. Sickles
are received with thegood will which
one nation owes to another, with
which it is bound by ties of amity. 1t
is presumed that the American Gov
ernment only desires TO strip the
struggle in Cuba of its sanguinaFy
character. The Washington Cabinet
is urged to impede the departure of
supplies for the insurgents, who pre-
vent the Spanish Government from
out policy in Cuba in har-
mOny with that at home. SenOr Sill
Vela maintains that the insurgents of
Cuba are in the minority, and by no
means belong TO the most wealthy and
influential classes, a5 has been so con
stantly represented.
The EpOca makes mention of con-
ferences between Senor Silvela and
Gen. Sickles, in which the former
urged the release Of the Spanish gun
boats building in the United States,
that they were only to be
used to protect the shores of Cuba
against expeditions In aid of the in
from foreign countries.

Walker made an address to-day on the
fair grounds at Danville, in the pOlit-
ical portion of which he said he felt
nothing but pity for the opposition in
the late canvass, who were led by a
set of cormorants and earpet-baggers
who had nothing at stake but their
own selfish interests. He rejOieed
that the election settled the faet that
Virginia was hereafter tn be ruled on
principles of right and Justice and civil
and political equality. What she
now needs is plenty of honest, indus
tTious and Intelligent laborers, no
matter from what source they come.
He appealed to the young men of
Virginia not to f0rsake the State, and
not to fOrsake the plow and fly TO the
large cities of the North, where vice
and decentralization awaited them.

lowed in the same spirit as the Gov

Is the Presidents choice, is the friend
of Gen. Sherman, and will be more
acceptable to Congress than any other

lected, and consequently would be
likely to secure the speedy reeonstruc-
ton Of the State. His brother and
young Douglas, the Presidents pri~
vate secretary, have arrived to work
for his election.
1t Is stated that Gen. Candy has
prepared a report ON the alleged frauds
in the Virginia election, which will
show it is an extremely fair election
much fairer, indeed, than is usual
