The West Virginia Republican State Con

The West Virginia Rcpublican State Con
vention met in Petersburg on Wednesday last.
Gov STEVENSON was unanimously renominated
Several statesmanlike speeches were delivered in
the Convention, and q dozen resolutions were
adopted Gen. GRANT's administration was not
endorsed. Indeed, after wadng through over
dozen columns of the proceedings of the Conven-
ton, printed in the Wheeling htelligeHeer, We
are unable to find the least allusion to Gen
GRANT or Secretary Fsu. This evidently studied
silence is an indication Of Republican feeling that
should not be overlooked. The West Virginia
Republicans undoubtedly feel that GRaSr's course
is leading to the destruction Of their party. Their
State Convention has silently repudiated the
Executive And all this before the President s
completely in the great St. Domingo swindle had
been exposed.

Though Gen. GRANT has shown little apti-
tudc for politics in the more honorable sense of
that term, his skill in manipulating dodbtf,h
measures is by no means TO be dcspiscd. lie
has recently appointed three foreign Ministers,
and each OF these appointments has been used to
gain strength for the project of Dominican an
ncxation. Mr. WAYNE McYtIou, the son-in.aw
Of Senator CAMERON, has been made Minister to
Constantinople; Air. GoRHAs, Of Michigan, Min
lister 10 Holland; and Mr.. J. p. RooT, hitherto
Clerk of the Senete's Committee on Public
Lands, Minister TO Chill. Mr.. McVEtGn's ap-
poiutmeut secures the support of the Hon. SIMON
CAMERON !; Mr.. GonuAu's appointment satisfies the
mind Of tho lion. JAcoB NJ. HOWARD, and Mr..
Roors renders the Hon. SAMUEL G. PonSRor
firm friend Of the Dominican job. The selection
OF Mr.. AMOS 4. AKBRuAs for Attorney General,
which has occosioned such universal surprise
and curiosity, was also cut out Of the same cloth
The precise Southern votes that were thus gained
for the Dominican job we do not yet know but 1t
was bid for voice, and nothing else liz also cur
rently stated that Mr.. MoTLSY will soon be re-
moved from the British mission. Some philoso-
piers assign that place to the Hon. Mosss n.
GRiNSrLL; others assert that MIR. HAnnros
Prsu is 10 figure in behalf Of our country at st.
James's. Both OF these assertions however,
rest upon very slender foundations No doubt
Mr.. Mor1EY will soon be recalled; but the name
Of his successor cannot be conjecturcd except
by those who know in what way this appoint
ment can be made to control the greatest mum
Der Of recalcitrant Senators and bring them into
the support Of the Dominican job.

THE STATE CANVASS.
The Radicals Drawing the Lines.
TI,.o,,, tha Uopoubo RapubIIcop

From the Kanawha Republican,
We publish to-day, the card of the
Democratic State Executive Committee,
calling State Convention to be held in
the town of Charleston, on Wednesday,
the Sth day of June next. In our
opinion this Convention has been called
at least six weeks too early; but if it
be the will of the power behind the
throne, we shall not presume to set the
action Of the committee aside. The
only hope we can have of success is in
unity Of action and Of purpose As the
convention has already been called, we
urge upon the opponents of corruption
and misrule, in every county of the
State to send a full delegation to
Charleston on the 9Th of June next, and
let ticket-a purely ,ohitc fckct-be
nominated and we feel assured that it
will be elected by larger majority than
has ever been given to any party in
West Virginia, The Radicals are
drawing the lines. They have forced
negro equality upon the people; and
they are forming oath-bound black
leagues all over the State; they are de-
termined to have a black mans party
and white mans party. And in
order to prove their faith by their works
they will be compelled TO receive black
delegates in their conventions; and if
they really love the negro, if they dc
sire TO elevate him, and above ALL if
they expect to control the colored vote
they must nominate negroes for office
they must give the negroes township,
county and State offices. Will thev
do it? 1t is they privilege, the right
and the duty of the colorcd people to
demand this, and il their wish is not
complied with, it will he their duty to
vote with the party that practices all
the friendship it processes. The lines
are drawn,-white and black Which
side are are Won on?
