WHY GO WEST =.

The North american gives utterance TO
the following timely caution: "The West
is no longer the land of promise that it was.
Its cities have become metropolitan, and
competition runs riot. Men are beginning
to say that there is no use undertaking
journey of thousand miles to find no bet
ter chances of fortune than they have here
at home"
There is no reason, and has been none
since the war closed, why active, industri-
Gus men should leave Virginia to seek their
fortunes in any other part of the Republic.
No better climate can be found anywhere.
No richer fields, or at least none that can
be made richer, invite the laborer to agri-
cultural industry, in any other part of the
country. No greater or more remunera-
tive sources of wealth lie open for ready
investment than here. No state will be
more freely penetrated and thoroughly net
worked with railroads in the next ten years
than our own; and no better theatre will
| be found this side the Pacific for intelligent
labor than in Virginia. Our motto for Vir.
ginians is, Stick to Virginia." our motto
for others is, "Come, and then stick"

establish that protection was failure
in the United States, and must short
ly be abandoned. Now it laments
over the miscarriage of the frec-trade
schemes in Congress. In the Economist
of April 18th occurs the following
"Wc are sorry to find that the expecta-
tons which were formed as to the preva-
lence Of free-trade sentiments in the present
Congress have as yet been disappointed.
The protectionists have succeeded in the
first great contest that has occurred, p al
luding to the significant votes in both
houses in regard to the duties on tea and
coffee. OF course it is sorry. So is every
manufacturer in England, and every Eng
lish merchant and shipowner. And this
alone is reason enough why the American
people should be glad. ''Do the reverse
of what your enemies or rivals DESIRE" is
good rule in war, politics, and trade.

UTAH,

We have received the very able speech
of Thomas Fitch, ESQ.,, Senator elect from
Utah, delivered before the constitutional
convention of that territory. Mr.. Fitch
earnestly, and with convincing eloquence
urges the abandonment of Polygamy, as
the true policy. Admitting honesty Of
belief on the part of those who practice it,
he urges against it the laws of climate, the
progress of the age, and the irresistible de-
termination of the American people.
This advice is good. Let the people of
Utah come into the Union with constitu-
ton inhibiting polygamy, and they will be
forever safe from that corrupt band of sordid
and lecherous scoundrels who infest the wes-
tern border, and who consider Indians and
Mormons as their legitimate prey. These
canting Williams are losing their hold upon
the country since an honest administration
cut off their resources in the contract line.
The temporary consequence which judicial
demagoguism gave them is over. Utah has
only to step into the ranks of the States,
without polygamy, and she is safe.

FEELING that his (Gen. Grants fame
stands upon weak foundation, with only
his record IN this (the late) war, he would
gladly force greater occasion that might |
offer him a better opportunity. A war
with England would furnish him the means. |
1t would give him an army, a navy, a full
treasury, and clothe him with absolute
power, which is all his ambition covets,
and might send him down to history in
company with the knave who fred the
Ephesan dome, at least, if not by the side
of Caesar or Napoleon. -Ehquirer.
String the Ephesian Dome," and
''sending him down to history" are both
good, and the last super-excellent but that
his ambition covets position by the side
of Caesar or Napoleon, is entirely incredi-
BILE, if one-half the Democratic jour
nails have said of him be true. We will
not repeat their glowing encomiums on his
great generalship, and the powerful STRAIT
egy be employed to knock the spots out of
the rebellion. They would not especially
edify our readers, who stupidity persist in
measuring great men by what they do--by
the grand achievements they accomplish
for themselves and others-and not by the
opinion manufactured by their personal and
political enemies. A very stupid way, it
may be, of estimating human character
and human greatness but it is the one
our readers naturally fall into, and many
of them have seen too much of the world,
and had their opinions too thoroughly
grooved and rutted in impartial judgment
to change their habits of thinking now.
If General Grant is SO transcendently
ambitious or covetous of fame, he ought to
be made of /" sterner stuff" than his politi-
cal enemies accord him the credit Of pos
sessng. But there is this consolation, that
Andrew jackson was far more villainously
deprecated in his day, and accused Of max
ing far greater strides towards despotie
power and purposed imperialism than Gen.
eral Grant has been, or is likely to be, du'
ring his quiet and unostentatious occupancy
of the White House. The Enquirer be
lieyes no such nonsense as that which it in
advertently catches up and repeats from tn
more malignant and distempered journalism
, of the day. 1t will do for Brick Pomeroy
= or some out-of-the-way editor who neve
{ heard Of Appomattox court house. an'
wouldn't believe that Lee surrendered t
