CAN'T SEE IT.-The enquirer has re-
ceived communication from Rockingham,
which found its way into the waste basket
because, as we suspect, the writer was
rather severe on its pet project, the ''fund-
ing BILL"
Its Democratic friends may as well un-
derstand it will publish nothing in opposi-
ton to it. If they wish to be heard upon
this question, the columns of the STATE
JOURNAL are open to its opponents.
Some Immortal j. NJ" will be along
after awhile and lift the veil from the eyes
of the Enquirer, and it will find it can bet
ter afford to cut loose from Governor Wal
ker than from the whole people of the State.

but when the proper spirit takes possession
OF community, there can be no difference
tolerated as to the determination to bnild
up and increase the material prosperity of
that community.
We confidently look forward to the time
when our efforts will be appreciated to IN
duce capital to come to Richmond to en-
courage commerce and manufactures to
make our public schools compete in efficien-
cy with those of the North; to praise the
efforts of our merchants and capitalists, so

prescribe our paper because its politics and

wrong, and that they will sooner OF later
see their error.

The proposition to contest the seats of seua-
tors Dechert, Nagle, and Randall meets with no
favor among leading Republican Senators. 1t is
regarded as an effort of petty ofice-hunters to
commit the Republican party to a great public
wrong for the benefit of few men who have the
least possible claims upon the organization. The
prominent Republican Senators have discussed
the matter freely and have taken occasion to avow
their disgust fOsuch attempts to reach power
by defying the vote of the people. Republican
Senators feel that the precedents established by
the party already in contesting seats are quite
violent enough to enable Democratic legisla-
ture to commit almost any wrong that mere
party interests might demand, and they will set
themselves sternly against any further violent
attempt to put men into Office who were not
elected. SCRIBE.
