THE CONFIRMATION by the Senate Of Gen.
Myers, Of the Quartermaster's Department,
TO be major, which was done in the closing
hours Of the session, was an act Of Justice to
a mehtorlous and capable officer which
should have been done long ago. General
Myers has suffered from the lntrIgues of a
ring In the Quartermaster's Department in
Washlngtonthat managed things pretty much
a. II pleased during the late war. The peO'
pie In the South aud West who are familiar
with General Myers great service In the
West aud Southwest will rejoice that he has,
in measure, at last received the recognition
10 which he Is so Justly entitled.

A MAN applying for the place Of oyerseer on a
Southern plantation presented tho following
letter OF introduction and Endorsement: "Mr
arc temperate his disposition o0ngonIal 10 social
huency In business. His comprehension Of Agrl.
culture 10 exquisite aTtiul. His hrmness In hil
capacity equals his sobristy In habits Also
have mover been elpoused, he leads a llte o
oelibraoy. So i think all the ohAraeteTlstiokl

We HOPE that before the general appro.
priation bill Is perfected In the Legislative
Assembly an appropriation may be made
to allow the judge OF the Police Court 10
change his quarters to a location better
adapted to the purposes Of the court than the
present unhealthy place now occupied. II Is
a shame to compel the officers Of the court to
remain where they are. The house now occu-
pied Is totally unified for the uses OF the
court and should be changed at once.

Two OR THREE MONTHS 400 the Tribune,
in joining what Is called the independent
press, declared that no matter who was
nominated at Cincinnati, Philadelphia, or
elsewhere, 1t should not In future be an Or
gan, or print campaign editions, or shout for
this or that candidate. How II has lived up
to this declaration may bo seen from the fol-
lowing extract from the Richmond Va.)
Enquirer Of the13th instant;
ave have received through the mali from the
Tribune once . brief pamphlet, entitled 'Mr.
Greeley's Record on Amnesty and Reconstruo-
tl0n from the Hour OF Gen. Lees Surrender
We have road II through, but have learned
nothing new concerning the sage and phllOso-
pher. We know his record much better than no
now knows II himself, and there Is very little In
II that any Southern man can commend, or that
is calculated 70 make Mr.. Greeley acceptable TO
the people Of this section"

ALEXANDRIA. VA.
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1872.

The Richmond Enquirer rciterates its advice
to our own people to remain in Virginia. In a
very few years a new era of prosperity will
dawn upon our native State, and through her
commercial, manufacturing and mining inter
ests she will become as prosperous as any other
portion of the would. If they will but have
the patience to struggle on until this new tide
sets in all will be we'll with them, and they will
never have cause to regret that they bore with
fortitude the trials to which they were subjected
bv the adverse fortunes Of war. We are almost
through our tribulations now, and before any
of those who are leaving US could possibly es-
tablish themselves as comfortably elsewhere as
they are even now situated in their old homes,
Virginia will have entered upon her new career.
Therefore it is better to remain and endure yet
little longer the ills you have than, by desert
ing the State, fly to others you know not Of
We can all make comfortable liyings now,-and
with the promise Of a brighter future, what
more need we ask?

ers through the city and the State-and it re-
ports that the Greeley majority in the city will
be $4,000 In the country districts it finds a
great many Liberal Republicans in the strong

The Richmond Wing in reply to the asser-
ton that 10 voting for MIR. Greeley, his past
course is endorsed, says very truly: 1--WE have
nothing in the world to do with Mr.. Greeley $
past-it is his present and his future that we
are dealing with. If he will give us real peace
and good government as he promises to do,
and we believe will do to the full extent of his
power, it is all we ask of him. We have nc
hope of these blessings from Grant and his
corrupt ripgs-he and his have been tried and
found wanting; and com mon sense dictates that
we should make trial of another, who holds
forth better prospects of success
