The expressions of qualification at the cleo
ton of Gov. Vance, as U. S. Senator from
North Carolina, are general by the Conscrva-
tives and Democrats all over the country. On
the doctrine of "expediency," however, we
do not know that the joy manifested, may not
initiate against him, when he goes to Wash
ipgton to take his seat. We observe that 10
his speech at Raleigh where he expressed his
views in favor Of moderation and Cancellation
in the South, he said that he anticipated
some opposition to his being admitted as
Senator" However. We cannot refrain from
"tbree cheers for Vance,"

Christmas has always been the great winter
holiday, and thanksgiving doy,in old Virginia.
Gov. Walker did not issue this year a procla
nation recommending Thanksgiving Day in
November Whereupon Radical correspon-
dent Of New Yerk paper. writes :-"When
that State (Virgiuia)cones before Congress for
consideration in he matter Of appropriations
for internal improvements or public buildings,
which she sadly needs, the members OF tho
dominant party will be very Likely to remember
such conduct" The Now York Journal of
Commerce rebukes such consummatc mean
ness, and remarks that men who could enter.
tain such a miserable, vindictive purpose,
should not set themselves up to censure Gov.
Walker. Especially 50, when many Of those
who are called upon to punish Virginia, never
thanked God for any thing in their lives !
However, we are, after this, satisfied that Gov.
Walker did right-and the people Of Virginia
scorn the threat and despisc the threateners.
