We think the writer of the above is no
great admirer of JEFF Davis, and that
neither he nor the majority Of sensible men
in Virginia consider him Representative
man. of the South. But there are those
who regard him as sort of "Sir Oracle"
and that when he opens his mouth all other
dogs should dry up" The fact that he
was SO consplcuously showed forward at
the White Sulphur, with brilliant boquet
of fashion, beauty, and female Southern
chivalry flashing about him, and
extravagantly pertaining the air he
breathed, shows that the ''fools are not all
deaf" and that secessia tits feminine termi-
nation) still lives. We are sorry to be
obliged to say this much to our "Virginia
Conservative" whom we know to be
gentleman of excellent good sense (evinced
in his reading The STATE JoURNAL) and
as true a patriot as ever drew steel. We
don't like his politics, but be is no less true
as an american than he is as a Tuginian
for he stands (all but politically where
Lee and Stonewall 1.-THE immortal Stone
walD would have stood to-day, were they
living.

TO The Editor Of The State Journats
For nearly two years | have bcen,a con.
slant reader of your paper. IL is a good
paper, candid, frank and honest in all its
professions; is edited with very great ability;
is remarkable for its courtesy and truly re-
spectlul bearing towards all furnishes
valuable information, and is thus valued
andprized. Now, in your candor and hon.
est sincerity, allow me to ask and you TO
answer me question or two: Do you
really believe that Jefferson Davis is o
representative man OF the sentiments or
feelings of any man or set Of men in Vir-
GINA who has accepted the result of the late
conflict and gone about to repair its damages,
in both state and federal, political and do
mestic affairs? Are you not satisfied that
Davis is a sour, disappointed, selfshly
ambitious individual, and is now totally
without caste or influence in single section
of this state? That there is no man or
party who pay any attention to, or have
any respect for his "cant?" Is it not the
feeling and wish Of every true Conserva-
tive in Virginia that he will keep his
mouth shut, or find fellowship if he can
with the opposite party? Do you not
candidly believe as / inquire? Jefferson
Davis is not by any means authorized to
speak for either the men or measures of
this state, and we beg the North to place
as little reliance in what he says or does
as do the people of Virginia "Say, don't
| tell you the truth2''

The good people of North Carolina are
just now disturbed by discussion rela-
tive to the Meeklenburg declaration of
independence. Old records have been
unearthed and long forgotten data brought
to light again. The result plainly shows
that whether or not North Carolina can
claim the honor of the Meeklenburg
declaration of the Goth of May, 1775, or
the resolutions of the 31st of May of the
same year, concerning which the discus
sion originated, it is nevertheless true that
the state is still entitled to the distinction of
being the first to take official action in
favor of the National Declaration of indie
pendence. Referring to this subject,
! correspondent of the Raleigh News shows
indisputably that North Carolina, on the
18th day of April. l77G, empowered her
delegates in Congress to concur with the
delegates of other colonies in declaring
independence and forming foreign
alliances" This was in advance of the
action of any other state. 1911

some Importance TO New Zealand and the Austria
liam colonies. Our commercial relations with the
Sandwich Islands are increasing, and under the
wise administration of the Native Kings great fac
ilities were given for commercial interchange. by
the election of n Native Prince TO the Throne, there
is a guarantee that the past policy Of Hawaii will
be continued. II. however, "A Republic had sue
ceeded the Monarchy, we should, in all likelihood,
have had an off.shoOt of the United States. and iu-
stead Of a liberal tariff a close protective policy
would have been adopted. There was another and
a worse contingency, namely. annexation to tho
United States. This project had been mo0ted years
ago in San Francisco, and was debated in the Cham
Der OF Commerce Of that city, on which occasion
statistics were adduced TO prove that il was the In
terest Of the United States to annex the Sandwich
Islands, on the death Of the late King. who was
known TO have no Issue. In such "a Gaze, interest
and duty are so closely allied, that IL is impossible
to tell where one begins and the other ends and
we fully expected a demonstration on behalf OF the
United States during the interregnum. Fortunately
the danger is past, and Hawaii remains an indie
pendent Power, under a Native King. Ii has q
great career before it in the future. the Sandwich
Islands being the pivot upon which the Eastern and
Australian trade with the Pacific seaboard of tho
United States must turn. Already there arc
droppings of the coming shower Of prosperity; and
if the Hawaiian Legislature removes every ~restric-
ton on commerce, it will soon receive the advant-
age OF an enlightened policy.-Neo Hedland Herald
