TWBNTY, SECOND OF FEBRUARY.

The anniversary on which our paper~is
issued is a day ever memorable, not to the
American only, but to all EngIish-speaking
people. The right Of self,govornment in the
sense expounded by the authors Of the Revo-
luton, and maintained by the successful
struggle Of the Independent States who
achieved their independence, has been slowly
winning its way to universal recognition, as
fundamental in the system of christian civil
cation. Persona! or absolute government is
disappearing from European politics. Oc-
casional retrogradations only prove the law Of
the general gravitation in the right direo-
ton. The current of public opinion only
recedes in order to gather fresh strength and
fuller volume. This reflection should re-
assure those who are dispondent in our own
country. Scarcely has the great Civil War
closed, and resulted in the disastrous over
throw Of this principle Of self government,
before the Supreme Court shows decided
tendency to declare the War itself unconsti-
tutional. No one can come to any other con-
clusion after reading the recent decision in the
Legal-Tender case, (HePburn VS.. GrisWoldJ
This is the first step towards the grand victory
of Peace and Reason, which War and Force
proved themselves unable to achieve, and
which must finally establish tho right Of each
Of the Independent States to change alter Or
abolish its existing form of government, when
ever in the opinion Of a majority of its citi'
zeus such change shall be deemed necessary.
This principle vas that for which Washing
ton commended. Tbs surcst evidence of his
greatness consists in the estimation in which
his rivals and contemporaries held him. Asro-
lated in his life by Weems, Napoleon declared
him the greatest man OF, his time. He en-
eountered no serious opposition in his selec-
ton as Commander-ir- chief, In the Con
vention which framed the Constitution, he
was elected president by accl2natiOa. The
men who thus Acknowledged his superiority
were themselves giants. Franklin, Jefferson,
Hamilton Madison, Adamg-thess were the
pen who added their testimony to She opinion
Of Napoleon. Let Us DOT, therefore, fall into
the error Of believing that Washington was
not, taken all in all-the Gr:atest Man. As
such we must ever revere him, and oonmcm-
crate, with renewed reverence and admiration,
each returning anniversary of his birth.

THE CHARTER OBTAINED.

We are gratiied to be able to announce to
our readers that the charter for an extension
of the Shenandoah Valley Railroad by the
Potomac river has passed with little opposition,
the Legislature Of West Virginia 1t is
generally known that there is proposition,
which has been pressed with very reasonable
hope of success to connect the work above
named with the Cumberland Valley Railroad,
now in process of construction, from Hagers-
town to the Potomac. This junction, when
effected, viii furnish grand through route
from New York and Philadelphia to the South
and Southwest, bringing the former city
nearer to New Orleans than any other route in
existence by about seventy miles. The adj
vantages afforded to our citizens of choice
of markets for their products and purchases
cannot be too highly estimated whilst, at
the same time, this improvement must tend to
the development of almost cxhaustless wealth,
mineral and agricultural, which lies along its
way.
The attention of the people of the county
oau not be too iutently fixed on this great
work. They should giveit all the encourage
:nent in their power both BY expressions of
their good will and by liberal subscriptions of
stock. g a
One Of the provisions of the charter just
secured is submission to all the tax payers
of the county Of the question of a county sub
scription, within thirty days after the Board
r. C,,,o.,,;,cr, sb,lI I,o-o 5:rootad eucb sub
mission, a special election to be held for the
purpose 1t involves interests of momentous
Importance. We trust that, with view to
this election which will doubtless be ordered
without delay by the proper authorities, the
matter will be canvassed and discussed fully,
and in a spirit Of examination and inquiry that
shall have for its object nothing else than the
public good.
Since the above was in type, we have re-
ceivcd the Page Courier, Ehich contains the
followipg:-
It appearing to t, : undersigned commits
siouors appointed to open Books of subscrip>
ton to the capital stock of the Shenandoah
Valley Railroad Company, that so much ofthe
capital stock is subscribed as is sufficient to
incorporate tho subscribers. 1t is, therefore
Ordered: That general meeting of the capital
stock of said company DO held at Luray, Va,
beginning on the 9Th of March, 1870, to elect

FRIDAY, February II. 1870.


House Joint Resolution No. p, in regard
to charges against the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad, was coucurred in.
By Mr. Iamb-Rcsolution directing the
Speaker to issue the proper summons to the
witnesses in the Harrison impeachment case
to appear to testify before the House on the
1st of March, 1870. Adopted.
BY Mr.. Brannon-J oint Resolution raising
n joint committee of seven, four from the
House and three from the Senate, to inves-
tigate certain determinations alleged to be
made by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company against the people Of this State in
its charges on way freight and way passengers.
Mr.. Brannon claimed that gross discrimi-
nations against way trade had been made By
this company, much heavier charges being
made, for example, on freight from Baltimore
TO CIarksburg than on freight from Baltimore
to Parkersburg or Wheeling. Petitions for
redress had received no attention from the
company. The Discrimination had grown into
an intolerable evil. Legislative redress was
demanded The law forbid the company to
impose heavier rates on way freight or passcn-
gers than on through freight or passengers.-
lie wanted no injustice done the company,
but he wanted to preserve the people from
unjust cHaciions.

SENATOR WILEY.

In the United States Senate on Wednesday
last, upon the consideration of the Mississippi
bill, Senator Wiley opposed the conditions
imposed by the bill and moved proviso, that
the conditions inserted by Congress in the
Virginia bill be repealed. He thought that
Congress had acted in bad faith towards these
States. ''They have done everything Thich
we required of them as a condition of ad-
mission, and low whom they come here with
clean hands we want to put now conditions on
them" Although Mr.. Wiley voted for the
Virginia bill, we are gratifel that he has seen
his error and is willing to atone for it. There
is some hope yet that ''sorpctling good can
come out Of Nazareth"

"OUR INTERESTS"

Our article of last week, under tic above
caption, seems to have brought to bear upon
us all the heavy artillery Of the cold Family
Journal" In the last number of the Free
Press we find lengthy editorial which pre-
tends to be a criticism of our article, but
which, in reality, is nothing more nor less
than an essay on the relative value Of lards
in West Virginia and Maryland, and docs not
touch our subject at all. We made no men
ton of lands whatever, but simply referred
to manufactures, and we still maintain that
shere are ''cligibIo manufacturing sites all
around u.s. which arc worth but very iittlc as
they now stand, but which, if in the hands OF
men of capital and energy, would be made the
source of immense revenue 10 tie Whole com
munity. We did not, and would not, suggest
to our people to sell their property at FAC
rifcc; on the contrary, We would Ike to SEQ
every citizen Of Jefferson well rcmuncrctcd
for his property, when he is compelled CT
wishes to dispose of it.
I'VE duly appreciate the energy and in
dustTy displayed in other parts Of the county,
and if we cannot reap the benefits Of having
manufactures located in our immediate vicin-
itv, we congratulate our follow-cit;acns Of
other neighborhoods upon their good fortune,
and wish them abundant success.
