Letter from Preston County.

Editors of the Register:
The present winter on the Allegheny.
Mountains is perhaps without paral-
lei in all the history of the past. The
oldest inhabitants do not remember
ever having experienced winter of
longer duration. 1t is true the ther-
mometer has not indicated tempera-
ture of unparalleled severity, but the
SHOWS have been deep and the storms
have been many.
The Alleghanies arealmost ascelebrs-
ted for their snow capped submits as
are the Sierra Nevada Mountains. At
this moment the ground is covered with
snow to the depth Of over two feet, and
in some localities in the vicinity of
the quiet little village of West Union,
the reads are entirely obstIucted with
drifts from ten to thirty feet deep, which
from all appearances will not be melted
out before the fourth of July, as old Sol
of late has but seldom ventured to peep
from behind the snowy clouds or send
his genial rays to gladden. and cheer the
hearts of animated, though slumbering
nature.
Unfortunately his Honor" the
ground hog, saw his shadow on the ~

The secret Oath bound Radical
LeaRues.


1t is well known to most people that
the Radicals, under the reign of BORE
MAN, organized two secret, oath,bound
political Leagues in this State, for the
object of controlling the elections. 1t
is also known that to these two secret
Radical Leagues third has been re-
Gently added, by that party, among the
negroes, for the purpose of voting that
class by machinery for its candidates
ard its purposes. These organizations
have their secret lodges IN every county
and every section of West Virginia. 1t
has been part of their business to mob
Democratic meetings, Interrupt Demo-
cratic speakers, insult members OF Dem
ocratic families, prevent the circulation
Of Democratic newspapers by system
of sueeripg at and brow-beating of sub
scribeIs to such periodicals, to strike
from the registration lists Democratic
voters, deter Democrats from attending
the polls, and to make false returns OF
results of elections. The doings OF these
Leagues have been defended by their
organ, the Intelligencer; they were run
by men like NAT. HARRISON, patronized
by the Governor, and their treasures
replenished by the Legislature. The
peoples hard. earned taxes have been
voted, with lavish hand, in the shape
of "Contingent funds" Registration
expenses Postage" &c, &c, to aid
these secret, oath-bouud Radical
Leagues in carrying out their schemes
of wrong.
These secret Radical leagues have
kept up, in many sections of our State,
chickering's, contentious and turmoil, for
there was nothing they dreaded as they
did peace. They have driven from our
State many of her best citizens, ana
prevented the immigration of other
people to add to our prosperity. 1t is
high time that all good citizens, without
regard TO party, band themselves TO-
gether to break. down these secret oath
bound leagues, and destroy their power

The Richmond War.

A dispatch dated Richmond, Monday
night IL o'clock, has the following:
In General Canby's reply to Governor
Walkers letter he conCuIs fully in the
Governors statement of the constitu.
tional and State laws in relation to the
employment Of the military arm of the
Government against domestic violence,
but says his instructions from the Presi.
dent and Secretary of War relate TO ex-
ceptional cases. He proposes to submit
the CORE, ,ondence to tho President and
Secretary of War He again denies any
intention of flvoring either contestant
for the mayoralty, and says he only in
terfered to preserve the public peace.
Governor Walker, in reply, says he is
glad General Candy comedies there is no
warrant or authority to be found in the
Constitution for his [Canby's action on
on Friday last. AS to the Generals in
structions, tho Governor says they
would not Justify his action, if con-
strued in the light of law. Such con-
struct;on as the General gives these in
structions would soon reduce the United
States army to mere police force, su-
preceding the State and municipal coz
servators of peace throughout the
country. The Governor expresses his
confident belief that but for the mill
tary interference the disgraceful rebel
lion against the lawfully constituted au-
thoritIes of the city would not have
lasted one hour. The Governor feels
sure, from his knowledge of the states
maulike ability of both the President
and Secretary Of War, they will relieve
General Candy of the duty of executing
orders which, under his construction,
cannot be executed without the viola
tion of the fundamental laws of the
United States.
This afternoon Ben. Scott, ore of
Mayor Cahoon's colored special police
force, was captured by Ellyson's police.
1t was in front of his house that Bush,
the special policeman, was killed last
night, and as the policemen having
Scott in charge neared the City Hall,
where Bush's body was lying, an ex.
cited crowd rushed on Scott and CON.
menced firing, shooting him in the
hands. The police, after short fight,
beat the crowd off, and succeeded n
lodging Scott safely in City Hall.
Resolutions were introduced in the
Legislature to day censuring General
Candy for his course, and asking Chief
Justice Chase to preside at the hearing
of Mayor Cahoon's motion for an in
junction.

On Monday morning the Deputy
Sheriff of Elizabeth City county, Viz
ginia, went ont to Celey Smiths farm,
three miles from Hampton, to put the
man who had bought it in possession,
but was resisted by the colored squat
ters. Yesterday Sheriff Tillow, with a
posse of fifty men, went to get the ne,
groes. He found some two hundred
men aud women, well armed, and con.
cluded it was folly to attack them, and
returned to Hampton, followed and
fred upon by the squatters, several
shots passing close to the Sheriff, but he
escaped unhurt. The Sheriff has called
on the Governor for assistance.

900 people entered the city, and during
one day in 1860, 7O7 ,0G0 people entered
the city, three. fourths OF whom were on

out of the eight principal arteries Of
London in one day.

WE COPY an article from the Parkers
burg Times, on the bringing of soldiers
into West Virginia. The Times is a
Republican Iaper-nOt . rabble-rcusing
organ of rowdy ism, it is true; it is
rather the organ of the better class OF
its party-those who desire for OH
State good name and peace and pros,
perity for her citizens. 1t lays down
the platform of those for which ii
speaks in this sentence: "We are in
favor of the enforcement CT the law
and the preservation of order, and
would protect all classes of citizens in
their rights, at all hazards, and, if
troops were necessary for that purpose,
would not hesitate-but when no such
necessity exists We are tired of this
kind of advertisement, Troops sent 10
Vest Virginia to preSerre order and
enforce the lGp,' and we care
not what patty does it, or what
effect, political or otherwise, is sintended
to be produced by it; we will enter eur
protest against it, and denounce it as
an injury to the State, an impediment
to immigration, aud an outrage upon
the good name and reputation of our
people. We have had too much of this
kind of reputation manufactured for us
in the past, without cause, and have
suffered greatly from it; it is time that
all good citizens, without regard tO
party, should unite to defend the repu-
tation, good name and prosperity of the
State against such damaging reports.
We trust other honest Republican
journals, who have the prosperity and
good name of the State at heart, will
come out and denounce, in masly terms,
the towdyism and incendiary course OF

this nefarious plot against the peace,
