Messrs. Republicans, you condemn
the prejudice of color, but wnat
q preiudice is that through which you
desnise your own color and
blood. You denounce hereditary dis
tinctoins and class privileges,
and yet close your eyes to the political
serfdom you perpetuate. You cry aloud
for equality and glorify the term, yet you
deem it right to deny TO your disfran.
chised white citizens the privileges OF
your Courts, the equal protection OF
your laws, and the political franchise
which you tender the radest negro clown
in the land.
Why should these great wrongs be
continued in West Virginia. In no
Northern State are they approved. In
mo other Southern State can they be per-
petuated. The drift of sentiment
throughout the whole country is against
themr They are anti-Republican in
their tendencies, disastrous in their op-
Grafton and disgraceful to any people
who may support them. While West
Virginia maintains herproscriptive pol
lev the motto she wears, Montam Sem
per Liberi, is a humbug.. By liberalizing
her laws she can make her people uni
ted, prosperous and happy. Until she
can rise above the small prejudices ex-
pressed by her DISTINGUISHING policy,
she must expect her people to be dissat-
isfiod, her progress to be slow, and her
very name to be sneered at by the liber-
loving people of the country.

Suffrage for the White Man.

White disfranchisement was the chief
issue in the election just decided in Vir-
ginia. WALKER, the successful candi-
date, represented the idea that white
men should not be excluded from politi-
cal power in the State. WELLS, on the
other hand, was the representative of
prescription. WALKER was supported
by the white vote of his State, by
large class of celored men, and by the
liberal sentiment of all classes through
out the country. WELLS depended for
success upon the scalawags, the carpet
baggers and the bulk of the colored
reOple. Had he succeeded course of
prescription, not so severe as that which
prevails in West Virginia, bat still in
iquitous and unjust, wonld have been
inaugurated in Virginia. His terrible
failure is a convincing proof that the
policy for which he spoke and worked
is rapidly losing ground, before the al

Areyiew of the manner In which pro-

war ended there was not disfranchised

were held to be necessary for "protec'

deemed requisite when rebellion was
active and belligerent. In May, 1866,
more than two years after the close OF
the war, q Constitutional Amendment,
disfranchising all who had participated
in the rebellion, was submitted to a
vote in West Virginia. But it was not
submitted to vote of the people then
entitled to WELD the ballot. In order

that the delegates look with great hope

The virginia Election.

The Virginia election is over. The
same may be said of scalawag rule IN
that State, if there is any dependence
to be placed in magnificent majorities.
The people of Virginia, white and black,
have decided to govern themselves with
out outside interference. The State will
be restored to civil rule unless Congress
remand her to the mercies Of the mill
tary. As the election was held in strict
compliance with the conditions imposed
by Congress aud the Administration, we
hardly think this will be done. The
Republican party scarcely desires to
commit suicide, and nothing could be
more suicidal than to set aside WAL
KER'S election. =
Our views of the lesson of the Vlr-
ginia election may be briefly stated. In
the first place it is not strictly party
triumph. Both candidates have here
tofore acted with the Republican party,
WALKER afliliating with the decent ele-
ment, and WELLS with the rowdyism,
scoundrelism and special rottenness of
that party. This defines the personal
issue between the two candidates. Po-
liticaliy, the issues were Of local char
acter, entirely. They involved chiefly
the disfranchisement of white men aud
the rule of imported rogues, as against
white enfranchisement, and 'the gov
ernment of the people by the people"
The respectable men of all parties in the
North claimed to take the WALKER side
of the case as thus presented, so that it
would hardly be proper to say that the
victory is one of Democratic men and
ideas over those Of the opposite descrip-
tion. Let us rather say that it is the
triumph of the Intelligent tax-paying
masses of the Virginia people, unitedin
opposition to adveHturers from other
States, and corruptiOnists from their
own, and in vindication of their right
to voice in their own affairs.
SO much for the victory; now what of
the dcfeat' 1t presages the universal
downfall of prescription. The pains,
penalties and disabilities of the UNDER
WOOD Constitution made the platform
of WELLS. That platform has been
knocked to pieces, and the same fate
awaits the Test Oath doctrine every
where. The programme of the Repub.
lican party in this State is even more
savage than that of WELLS. The light
of this event in Virginia may enable
our proscriptionists to foresee, if not
avoid, some serious dangers ahead.
Public opinion, as expressed upon the
merits of the Virginia canvass, is sternly
opposed to continuance of this ven-
geance policy, and no party can with
stand its force.
