THE VIRGINIA DEBT

We learn from the STATE J0WHaI pub
lished at Palkersburg that Governor
WALKER, OF Virginia, has written a
letter to General JOHN j. JACKSON
Chairman of the West Virginia Com
mission to investigate the condition Of
the Virginia debt, in response to COM
munication from them, declining to
appoint commissioners on the part Of
Virginia to confer with ours. Governor
WALKER recites the action as he under
stands it, OF the two States so far in IT.
gard to the matter, and, in view Of all
the facts, concludes that he is not az.
thorized to appoint commissions.
This ends the matter, we suppose, unt.i
the meeting of the Legislatures OF the
respective States.
We believe it was not contemplated
by the Legislature Of West Virginia
that the Governor OF the State should
appoint commissioner to adjust this
debt unless, or until, the Legislature Of
Virginia should take similar action to
that taken by this State. The Legisla-
ture of Virginia never responded to the
action of the Legislature of West Vir-
ginia in this matter, and hence the
action Of the Governor Of this State was
little premature.

The REGISTER, the Democratic Coun,
ty committee, and all other Democrats
Of Ohio county, 80 far as we know, are
advocates Of the ballot system for vot
ing. Had it not been for the secret
ballot, West Virginia would not have
been carried by the Democracy last
fall; for as soon as the Radical Regis
trars in the interior found out that man
voted the Democratic ticket, they
scratched his name from the list OF
voters. Grateful for the good the bal
lot system has accomplished for them,
the Democracy are not likely to aban-
don il.

A RADICAL newspaper in New York
comes out in favor OF giving the Presi'
dent one hundred thousand dollars sal

twenty-five thousand dollars q year

So far as the dignity is concerned,
twenty-five dollars year would amply

on the latest advices from Frankfort The
mania which prevailed to buy indiscrimi-
nately all kinds of bonds promising a high
interest had met with fresh check by the
default of the Roumanian Railway, and the
Alabama and Chattanooga, although the
suspension is promised TO be but tempo
rary. A difficulty had also occurred with
the Rockford-Rock Island bonds, which
are almost entirely in German hands. As
the payment of the dividend was not adj
vertised as hitherto, holders became
frightened, and the price went down from
SO TO 81, but has since recovered to DO
Ii is now generally believed that the dlvi-
dend will be partly paid out Of whatever
may have been really earned, and the
prospect of a deficiency was clear from the
beginning, as there was no party to make
good any short coming, and as all these
bonds were issued at a rate of interest
which could only be paid if the railways
obtained the same net revenue as the best
German lines. Holders of Oregon-Cali-
fornia bonds, on the other hand, have at
the same time been agreesbly surprised by
the sale of their land grant to a respectable
land company recently constituted, by
which they obtain an additional guarantee,
SO that their price has risen from SO to
7O5. While all kinds of speculative stock
remain fiat, with the exception of LON
