Death of Commodore Maury.

The death of COMMODORE MATTHEW
F. MAURY, which is announced in the
morning papers, will create a deep and
wide impression of grief throughout the
State, if not one of signal regret and sor-
row throughout the entire country. lie
died at his residence in Lexington on
Saturday, after a severe and painful
illness, at the age of sixty-seven years.
The deceased was too well known, and
his services too highly appreciated
by the people of his native State. to
require any extended obituary by us.
At the close of the war he was appointed
to the Chair of Physics in the Virginia
Military Institute, for which position he
was eminently fitted by eduation, culture,
experience, and long military and naval
service. He leaves an enduring and spot
less fame behind him, except as it may be
married by the last great cause in which he
was engaged, and which drew some of the
most gifted and brilliant men of the South,
as we'll as the most sensitive in respect to
honor, into a vortex they would gladly
have avoided if they could. The heart Of
the whole country will deeply sympathize
not only with the bereaved family Of the
deceased, but with the State that loses ope
of her noblest sons.

We have received a second commune
cation from I" Subscriber" in reply to our
comments upon his first letter addressed to
us, and should be glad to publish it, if 1t
were possible to give place to all the able
articles received by US. Butiu this instance,
there is a second objection to its insertion
in our columns, which is, that it is not
responsive to the point on which we took
issue with him. In his first communica-
ton, he took the ground that there was
ssuch a thing as state rights, y but "no such
thing as state sovereignty" II was on TINS
point that we made issue, indicating the
" strange language" used by us, as Sub
scribern viewed it. All the reply he
makes to this consists in references to GER
tain authorities, without quotations from
them, commencing the list with Webster
and ending with Tiffany on the Govern
ment of the United States" he h
adds that I" the discussion on this question
belongs to a past age and is of no practical
value now."
We entirely disagree with him in this
u~tterance, as we do in the value oil his
references to sustain the position taken by
him. that states have no sovereignty.
Mr.. Webster was at one time the cou
sci for the Barring Brothers, of London,
and was written to by them to know il
suits could not be brought in the federal
courts against certain delinquent states,
which had failed to provide for the interest
on their outstanding liabilities, and whose
legislation looked towards reputation, they
holding OF the time the bonds of sucf
states to a very large amount. MIR
Webster, as council for this eminent Lon
don firm, replied in the negative, sayinl
that ''the states were sovereign power
that could not be sued." 1t is hardly pos
sible that Webster, the great lawyer AM
constitutional ~expounder that he was
could have entertained at any time a differ
ent opinion from that given to his Londo
clients.
Much OF what "Subscriber" says abor
the actual condition of things at the tim
West Virginia was erected into a STATE
is unquestionably true and should tht
question come up for future consideration
either before Congress, in our State Legi;
~laturc, or in the party platforms OF OF
people, we shall be glad to give plat
to a communication from him on this sui
ject. In the meantime, we are willing
accept his assurance that he had no han
in the spoliation Of either the old or ne
Virginia.

We all know that there are men noble, brave,
proud and true as any on earth, in all portions
of our country, and we do not class the carpet
Dagger with Notherners generally. We believe
he is the dishonorable eXception--and draw a
wide line between him and the honest Immigrant.
We are not so uncharitable as to regard the
carpet. baggers as representatives OF the Nortn-
ern people. "These are but the outcasts," While
the true people of the North are justly described
"yiew them near,
At home where all their worth snd pride is
placed,
And there their hospitable fires burn clear,
And there the lowliest farmhouse hearth is
graced.
With manly hearts, in piety sincere,
Faithful IN love, in honor stern and chaste,
In friendship warm and true, in danger brave,
Beloved in life, and sainted in the grave"
-Petersbur1 appeal.
All this is very nicsS-on paper. We
have not a word to say against it, and
commend the spirit which gives it such
commanding utterance. But before we
subscribe to the genuineness of the senti-
ment, as felt, we would like to see a more
satisfactory and conclusive definition of
the "genus carpet-bagger'' than The APP
peal, and other Conservative journals in
the State, have yet given it. "We
draw says our Petersburg contempora-
ry, "a wide line between him the carpet
bagger) and the honest immigrant" A
line is Mechanically defined as having
length, but no breadth or thickness
and we feat that the "wide line" Of our
enlightened neighbor is altogether more
imaginary than real, in the definitional
quality impaired to it. We agree that
there is a line of difference between the
social recognition which the people Of Vir-
ginia extend to certain persons coming
among them; but it falls very far short of
being a "wide line," or a very generously
extended one, in the way of social recog-
milton. The ''honest immigrant, y
we take it, is one who comes
into Virginia with no political opinions or
aspirations of his own, but settles down
quietly to the work he has in hand, whether
it be grinding a hand organ, mending old
shoes, running a peripatetic peanut stand,
or any other remuneratiye occupation he
may choose to follow. His honesty
consists in stickingt to his vocation, whatever
that may be, and leaving his independence
and manliness entirely behind him. Should
the people recognize him as man of CON
spicuous ability, and desire his advance.

State, then the wide line " becomes pure.
ly a mathematical one, without any con.
ceivable breadth or thickness to it, except
as the question of honesty is settled
by the identity of his views and opinions
with those who would define the differenc
between carpet-baggers" and "hones
immigrants"
We are sorry to be compelled to say thi
much, but it is a truth too palpable 70

TarAy but Just.

The bon. Mr.. Stowell, of this State, has
introduced a bill in the House of Represen-
tatives for the relief of Captain Robert
Pettit's company of independent scouts,
engaged continuously in the work of sup
pressing the rebellion from the sixth day OF
October, 1863, when the company was
organized, until the first day of June
1865, the relief asked being that
the officers and privates of said COM
pany should be recognized as a part OF the
military force of the United States during
the period named, and that they should
receive compensation accordingly. The
company referred to was known as
the Accotink Home Guards, and served
during the time named, under the
orders of the commander of the post
at Alexandra. As will be seen, they
served about two years and received
nothing from the general government ex-
cept ammunition and o few arms, which
latter were turned over to the government
at the close of the war. The company
for a time received the countersign
of the army, and were subject to
general orders of the provost marshal oil
Alexandria, to whom they turned over
something like one hundred prisoners,
captured by them during picket and scout
duty. The part of Fairfax county in
which this company was organized, was,
previous to their organization, constantly
subjected to Confederate raids and to the
d~epredations of bu~shwhacker; and others,
which were so annoying as to require al
most continuous picket lines from the
Potomac around Alexandria. After the
organization of this company (which was
done at the instance and by request Of
General Heintzelman, and recognized after
wards by General Augur), the picket line
which had been kept up by regular troops
was regularly supplied by this company
which effectually prevented any furthe
raids, but took the aggressive and kept tn
enemy from all that portion of Fairfa!
county bordering the Potomac, and mad
frequent and extended scouts into Primes
William county.
Many members of this company are poo
men, depending on their daily labor TO
support; and a few are now nearly unable
work and are receiving support from tn
county. They have never before apple
for pay, they having decided immediatel
after the war that they would Withhold
their claim until the government coul
adjust other and more pressing demand
upon the federal treasury. They now pu
in their claim, and the bill offered by MI
Stowell is eminently a just and meritoricu
one.

THE State of Delaware retains in her
Constitution and laws an old provision that
no citizen shall vote unless he is a tax-pay-
er. Last fall the Democratic politicians
attempted to take advantage Of this to ex-
clude negroes from voting. The Demo-
cratic assessors refused to assess colored
men, or to allow them to pay taxes. AT
ter the election, suits were commenced by
the colored c itizens against two of these
assessors, and one Of them has just been
convicted in the United State Circuit Court,
and sentenced to pay a fine of two
thousand dollars and all the expenses of
the suit. In Lexington, Kentucky, the
Democratic officials, not yet knowing the
result in Delaware, have been trying the
same game recently, and are likely to get
into trouble unless they instantly take the
back track. The law there does not allow
any citizen to vote OF the charter election
unless he has paid his taxes, and can show
a receipt. The other day the collectors
positively refused to receive money tender
cd them for the taxes of n~inety-four
Republican voters. Every Democratic
voter was permitted to pay without ques-
ton. If this business is not stopped, the
Democratic authorities of Lexington may
