"who Settled the Land Titles ?"

The above is question a. this time occupy
ing the attention of some Of the newspaper
men of West Virginia, and there are quite a
number of claimants for the honor Of the pro-
vision in the New Constitution upon the sub
iect Tue Wheeling Register says:
at is astonishing how many members Of the
Constitutional Convention were authors Of that
chapter on Land Titles. 1t taffords us pleasure
to contribute our testimony to the genius and
coquence Of Judge Ward, as well as his efii-
cheney in the matter to which he alludes. But
it is well known that Col. Jno. S. Hoffman, of
Harrison, Cwho was invited to Charleston to
confer with the Committee on the subject pre-
pared the most important Of these measures.-
Their conception and development are due to
bis study and industry They were, however,
zealously urged and ably supported by Col
Ben Wilson, OF Harrison, who made one of the
best speeches of his life in their behalf, Homer
A. Holt, Esq, who lucidiy ekpounded their
provisions, and, I've believe, by Col. j. NJ.
jackson, Col. W. G. Brown, James Armstrong,
Esq, Maj Henry NJ. Mathews, and Fontaine
Smith, Esq, as well as by Judge Ward, all
members of the Committee on Land Titles, aud
by Col 3. W. Byrue, Hon. C. j. Faulkner,
and, perhaps, other members ofthe Convention.

happily complied with the spirit OF both the

A Disguised carpet-Bagger.

4 gentleman Of this city detailed to Us an
amusing scene which occurred in Shubuia,
Miss, A short tine ago. tmaSes Us wish for
the power of phoiosrapldug u language:
A Radical drummer for New York mer-
camille house was staying at the hotel few
days. Soon after he became acquainted with
the negro porter be discoursed to him about
as follows, in political conversation:
"Well John, the law makes you the equal
Of the white man now. Yon can ride on the
cars, put up at tie same hotels, sleep in the
same beds, in short, do everything that tho
white folks do. You are my equal, John, you
are any mans equal. congratulate you T"
Now, John was a sensible darkey, and not
being used to such talk, told i, to his employ
er, the ho,e proprietor. That worthy humOur-
ed the joke, aud said:
"John, I'll give you two dollars if you'll
sleep with that fellow tonight. lie says you
are his equal"
"All right, massa, III doii, certain" laughed
the negro. Night came, and the drummer was
hardly slowed snugly in his bed, when John,
The porter, shullcd into the room, took his scat
on a chair, aud began pulling of his boot
The drummer raised up in some surprise, aud
the following colloquy ensued:
Drummer" What are you going to do,
John"
John" Gettin' ready for bed, sah"
Drummer" The h--ll you are! There's
only one bed in the room"
John" That makes no difference, sab, I'd
just as soon sleep wild you"
Drummer" But you can't do that"
John "a little hurtl-" Why, tho't you
told Inc was de equal sb de white folks. aud
could sleep in deir beds s'
Drummer So you are the equal of the
white folks, but I'll be hanged il you can sleep
with me. don't like your smell Get out
Of here, you black scoundrel !"
And John, with the corners Of bis mouth
Topped over the tips Of bis ears from gTinuing,
retrsated from the room shouting, thought
l was dc equal oh dc white folksP
The Joke WAS soon spread and the Radical
sneak, fearing to be teased, and seeing that dis
business was dead in that town, left tho place
at daylight, not waiting FOR the train, and
walked TO the next station.

Witness its early dawning in the Old Do
minion, the great battlefield where the armies
were constantly exchanging shots. That State
was more harrassed and narrowed, perhaps,
than any other in the Union. Witness its
dawuing there, and look at it to-day Do
you hear anything there of the outrages against
the colored mans right Do you hear anything
there of thieving, raseality, and selling bonds

The Grafton Convention.

We DO not care to occupy much space with
the proceedings of the Grafton Convention,
which were unimportant except the following
resolutions submitted to the convention by Mr..
Duckwall, of Morgan, which were referred to
a committee composed of Que from each of the
counties represented. After consideration, they
were reported to the convention by Mr.. Green
cf jefferson, without amendment, and almost
unanimously adopted:
Resolred AS the opinion Of this Convention,
that there is DO authority either in the acts OF
the Legislature of West Virginia or in the
schedale accompanying the Constitution, to
hold the Congressional elections Of the State on
the fourth Thursday in August Of the present
year and that all votes cast on that day for
candidates to be elected to the House Of Rep
resentatyos of The United States will be null
and void
Resolred, Further, as the opinion Of this
Convention, that the fourth Thursday in Octo-
Der next Is the day fixed by law for holding
the Congressional elections of this State.
Rsso,ced, That the day having been changed
from the 9th of September 70 the Sth of Au-
gust, and some of the counties of this Congress
sional District having not had sufficient notice
of the change of dly to enable them to be rep
resented in this body, therefore
Resolccd, That this Convention adjourn to
the 9Th of September next, The day originally
appointed for holding The same.

Second Congressional District.

The refusal OF the Congressional Convention
Of the Second District to nominate a candidate
for Congress yesterday is not to be construed
as confession Of weakness or as aifording any
expression Of doubt concerning the result Of
the election. 1t was done simply for the pur
pose of leaving the State canvass 10 that Dis
trct free from the complication and embarTass-
mcnt Of Congressional election IS our read
ers and the people of the State well know, the
vast preponderance of legal opinion in this
State declares that the Fourth Thursday in
Octobet is the proper and only lawful time for
the election Of members Of Congress in West
Virginia this year. There is however color
for the claim lunsound is it certsinly isl that
in the event Of the ratification Of the new Con-
stitution, the election for representatives, in
Congress should be held on the 22d day Of Au-
gust, the day on which State officers are to be
chosen The fear that a Radical candidate
who might receive few hundred votes on that
day might successfully contest the seat Of the
Democrat elected on the Fourth Thursday in
October, has induced the Democrats Of tic
First and Third Districts TO "make assurance
doubly sure and elect their candidate on both
days. In the Second District, however, no
danger Of this kind is apprehended, and it was
the opinion at the Congressional Convention yes
terday that the Democratic nomination might
with entire safety, be postponed until Scptenl-
Der.
The Second is Governor Jacobs home dis
trict and, as might naturally be supposed, the
bulk of his supporters in the State are there.
And yet it was the general opinion Of the dele
gates assembled at Grafton that Mr. Camden
will receive a majority in the District. 1t is
considered certain that the new Constitution
will be approved by the people there since Mr..
Jacob himself has not been able to stem the
tide in its favor aud has been forced to say that
he will yete for it himself. - Wheeling Regis

at Salem, was duly received. regret 1t will
be out of my power to attend. l have great
faith in the election of Greeley and Brown, the
Liberal Republican and Democratic candidates
for President and Vice-President, and have no
doubt Virginia will give them her electoral
vote by much larger majority than she did
the Walker ticket in 1869. | believe il for the
best interest Of the whole South as well as all
of the States Of the Union that Horace Gree
ley should be our next President. lie Is un-
doubtedly an honest man as well as man oil
ability. and know him to be kindly disposed
towards the Southern people. Notwithstand-
ing the search made with spectacleS, eye-glasS-
es, and microscopes to find out something un-
kind said by him against the people Of the
Sonth since the 18th April, 1865, they have
not been able to Go So He has since the war
been uniformly consistent in one course, for
amnesty and peace.
do most sincerely hope our colored fellow
citizens may rally to his support. They ought
to do so. Horace Greeley was and Is one OF
the best friends in whom they can safely trust
and under him their rights will be fully pro-
tectcd.
trust the Millennium is near at hand when
peace shall prevail from Maine to California,
and the past be forgotten.
