Consistency.

The Spj-d twits Us for want Of consistency
in not promptly acquicscing in the action of
late conventions, and quotes two paragraphs
from our paper OF June goth, to sustain the
charge. The last quotation is torn from its
connection, aul, therefore, entirely unfair, but
we would only remind the Spirit that it ex-
pressly declined t. commit itself to the nomi-
nees Of the Parkersburs Convention for some
tine after the State ticket was made up, and
only hoisteJ the names Of tue nominees for
Judge aud Senators, when it found that its
own efforts to break down the Martiusburg
Convention met with no response, and were
only bringing it eumi,y and riiicule. Who
pray is the consistent party, the SPIRIT itself
being Judge?

General Grant

Recently perpe,rated the best joke of the
season. \ delegation from Cincinnati waited
upon him at Long Branch and Invited him to
bestow tLelight Of his countenaucc on the great
exposition to be held in Porkopolis, but were
Unexpectedly met with refusal from Grant
on the ground that official business would
prevent his acceptance of the invitation. Now
everybody knows that Grant does not care a
whit for official or any other kind of business
when it iaterferes, IN any manner, with his
personal pleasures. He would rather. any day
see horse race, or a dog fight, than trouble
himself with the cares Of Office, and Tor months
past has persistently abseuted himself from
Washington, when his presence there was alb
solutely needed in furtheance Of the public
interests. It is evident that he does not love
Cincinnati, after the meeting of the Liberal
Convention in that city and it may be that it
would be more pleasant for him even to 10 a
little work in the White House than visit the
spot where the great popular movement
against his reelection was inausu-ated. But
whatever the real motive for his declination
may have been, 10 one who knows him will
believe for a moment that sincere desire to
attend TO any official business" had anything
to do with his refusal to be present upon tie
occasion. -Bal Gaz

James Lyons.


We never expected says the Lyuchburg
Ncps,) to see Dir. James Lyons President Of
tie United States. The Louisville Convention,
however, made an attempt in that direction.
Amidst tie widest applause, he was de-
clared by reclamation the nominee Of that
tremendous and irresistible assemblage. The
Liberal Democratic party, supporting Horace
Greeley, was expected to disbaud as speedily
as possible and throw up its lat for James
Lyons. We need not tell the people of Nir
giuia who Mr.. Lyons is That he is gentle
man is as true of him as we hope it is Of most
Virginians. That he stands high in name, as
well as in stature aud in lis own esteem, is in
disputable Both of the old parties in Virginia
know Mr. Lyons well, for he has belonged to
both, as well as the Conservative party, which
he has now left to rally around the flag Of
Grants Louisville Convention. Personally aud
privately Mr. Lyons is deseryedy beloved, but
politically, we should sooner select comet or
iumping-ack as an emblem of stability and
,teaiiastuess. Mr. Lyons is very good look
ing but be can't come H. just at present.
The Convention took sober second thought
and insisted upon O'Conor being the Pilot Fish
for the Radical Shark.

Grand Ratification Meeting in New
York

The New York Herald Of the 18th inst, in
describing the meeting and reporting the
speeches, thus speaks Of the eloquent speech of
Daniel B. Lucas, Esq, made at the grand CEN
trail platform Of the evening, viz: that in Tam
many Hall. We are pleased to see, says the
SPIRIT by the Hgalds report that Mr. Lucas
thus appeared among the leviathans Of the
great ocean Of popular reform aud peace, which
was reflected back from the multitudinous faces
which gathered together and blazed and shore
in old Union Square and its vicinity. OF Mr..
Lucas speech the Herald says:
Mr.. Lucas, of West Virginia, next followed
in brief but stirring speech, in which he
pledged the meeting that Vest Virginia, out Of
a voting population Of 10000, would give
Greeley and Brown a majority of 10000, to
meet the promised majority OF New York of
go, 600 From the highest peak Of the Blue
Ridge to the highest peak Of the Alleghanies
the cry had gone abroad that the government
would be redeemed and disenthralled from the
uepotism, despotism aud Capitalization of the
present administration on the 9Th OF November
next.

The SPIRIT Of jefferson very clearly demon
strated If demonstration was necessary in
its issue of August -, that Cis-Alleghany was
entitled to the Congressional nominee, yet it
was the Spirit-not the papsr-but its edito-
rial corps that at last gave that nomination to
Trans-AIleghauy and that too contrary to the
wishes aud interests Of our entire people
Just before the meeting Of the Grafton Con-
yention it raised : great cutlery against
Mr.. Faulkuefs nomination on the ground that
if he should be tho regular candidate he would
be beaten by Mr.. Bo.eler the Independent, aud
really spoke as if Mr. Boteer, Instead Of being
honorcd and respected through the entire dis
trict by men Of both parties, was some terrible
radical whose election would be dire calamity
and that Democrats were called upon to do
anything to beat B5te,er Now We have to
say that the SPIRIT men in giving US a candi-
date from Taylor County, have done more to
eiec, Mr. BJteler than could have been thought
possible, and that, too, when from their editori
al Of Sept. s, one would havo supposed that
the prime duty Of every delegate to Grafton
was 20 see that there was no chance left for
Boteler Had the mi'reprssontins delegates
risen six inches above their personal prejudices
we might have had in either event, a represon-
tatiye from Cis-AlIegbany, and one whom the
entire district and State might have been proud
to honor, whether it was MIR. Faulkner or Mr.
Bntsler.

The Spirits Absurdities.


The SpaV Of Jefferson in its reply to the
Martasbmg Sia,esman last week. thus defends
the iulefyusible action Of the four delegates
from jefferson, in tie late Convention at Graf
ton. vho gave US SIR Martin, instead of Mr.
Faulkner. as eur nominee Cor Congress:
"The "tcw" when compelled % select between
The two candidates before the Convention upon
thc last ballot. cast their votes for Mr. Martin not
only because OF their utter and entire want OF con-
fdcucc IN the political character OF Mr.. Faulkner,
but also because they felt convinced chat, II the
latter gentleman received the nomination, tie par
o. nominee would be beaten IN this county by a
crushing majority against him. There are many
perfectly true men in this coruty who would not.
under any combination of circumstances that could
possibly arise, vote fer Mr.taatSncr fer anything
Now as TO the amot ut Of confidence which
these gentlemen cherished in the political
character Of Mr. Faulkuer, we have nothing to
say. That is personal matter between the
parties, aud the confidence upon the one side
may be as great as that upon the other; but
when the SDnti assumes to say that there are
many men in this county who would not
vote for Mr. f. for anything, itis most absurd
~ attempting to make multitude Of .fo,U
land perhaps two or three morel aud TO change
an act Of personal prejudice into one of repre-
sentative wisdom To show the utter absurd
ity Of the assertion we have but to turn to the
vote last Fan for members Of the Convention,
when Mr. Faulkner received in this county
1885 votes, or within fifty, perhaps, of the en-
tire Conservative vote then cast; and that, too
at a time when every man WAS free to consult
his preiudices, and to decline to vote without
fear Of radical success. Ii, then, Mr. Faulk-
uer could receive 1855 votes in jefferson when
he had really no competitor with chance Of
election, IS il not certain that he would and
could receive the full party vote IN a close race
with radical candidate. The excuse, there
fore, is fiimsy and without foundation, and the
facts show that the four delegates in question
represented nobody but themselves in their I'M
fortunate action at Grafton, unfortunate be-
cause from present appearances the sole result
of Mr.. Lucas candidacy for Congress was the
defeat Of Mr. Faulkner
