There is more in this project than

a reform which comes right home to
every mans interest. 1t is a cheap
and quick method of communication

Not much. If he does his duty faith

than we are all agog to show him
our servility. In the name of hu-

him as respectfully as we can consist

been to simply come over and look
at our country, he would not have
come in the pomp and display of a
Prince. No, he was posted, and is
receiving the fondling and homage he
anticipated.

The Chicago Post, of the 25th inst
has this extract, concerning the pas
sage of the bill for the admission of
Virginia into the Union
"The contest upon this subject, if
IL has not been long, has been ex-
ceedlnglv animated, and, as respects
some eminent men in the Republican
party, not without bitterness. 1t has
been supposed by a number of Dem
ocratic journals, as we'll as by few
which are not Democratic, that il
threatened the harmony and even the
very existence of the Republican par
ty. The result shows that all such
vaccinations Of evil were without
solid foundation. In the Senate, the
Republicans, after discussion; than
which none more earnest has taken
place for many years, voted almost
unanimously for the bill as it was
passed. In the House. the Republl
cans, after longer discussion, and
one only less animated than that of
the Senate, voted for admission with
out conditions, and they have now
voted unanimously for the conditions
upon which the Senate had agreed
We thus perceive that the widest
liberty ofdiscussIon does not interfere
with the necessary harmony of the
party in practical measures, and that
sham Democracy can fling away its
expectations that Virginia would be
the wedge which should split the pro-
gressive party of the country III
twain.
AS for the conditions in the bill,
they are conditions looking to future
quiet and safety, and are, therefore,
justfiable under the circumstances
The argument of Mr.. Bingham, that
such conditions would be Insulting if
applied to New York or Ohio, is sim
ply impertinent, because neither of
these States has made war or
thought of making war on the Union.
The legislation is based upon the
facts of history, to ignore which, for
mere hair-splitting theory, is very
LAWYER like, but exceedingly unstates-
manlike. There is no revenge in the
conditions; and it is certain that they
will have a good effect upon the un
repentant population of the State
We may congratulate ourselves that
Virginia Is again admitted into the
Union upon terms which shall pre-.
vent her from speedily attempting,
with any hope of success, a causeless
a ID most wicked overthrow OF onr
free institutions"

bills will be introduced after the re-
assembling of the Legislature on tho
23d Of Fc bruary.
In the Senate, this morning, Sena-
tor Wells S. Rice, of Mahaska county,
introduced bill for the erection of
State Normal School building at
Marshalltown, and Senator Griffith,
of Indianola, a bill for the erection
ola State capitol building. Also two
bills have been introduced in the
Senate, asking for appropriations for
building of a new Penitentiary. So

not barren of projects at least in this

out that the harvest shall not all be
garnered. A spicy little discussion
participated in by Senator'S Hawley,

introduced lessons the time of stay
upon small amounts, and gives twelve

measure the Senate adjourned.
The House was in a very dispas-
sionate mood to-day, moving along in
the regular order of business in quiet
dispatch. A large amount of bills
were introduced and referred.
