SOME Of our village newspapers Of the
Conservative faith, are charging Mr..
Hughes with having been opposed to ex-
punging the test-oath and DISTINGUISHING
clauses of the state constitution in 1869.
This charge involves the absurdity of
charging that Mr.. Hughes was in favor of
DISTINGUISHING himself; for his disabilities
were not removed until some time after
wards, and during the congressional session
of 1SG9-'7O.
Looking back over our files we find that
Mr.. Hughes published card over his own
name in the issue Of this journal for 22d of
May, 1869, announcing his determination to
SUPPORT the regular Republican ticket, and
advocating the adoption Of the state consti-
tuition "pitl those clauses eapunged schich
are submittedto separate cote By The procla-
nation Of General Grant, In a paper
submitted by him to congress in December
1869, he declared that he had refused to
enter the canvass of 1869, until after Gov
ernor Wells had declared against the
clauses. Frequent articles occur at differ
ent dates in the canvass, advising the Re
publicans to vote for expunging the obec-
tionable clauses; and THE STATE JOUR-
NAL asserted repeatedly in its columns
chat every Republican paper in the state
was strongly advocating the striking
out of the clauses. If Mr.. Hughes
contemporary writings do not disprove this
charge, then would not his accusers be-
lieve were an angel to rise from the dead.
Yet Mr.. Hughes did very strongly appeal
through THE JOURNAL to the people of
the state, to send only men to the legisla-
ture who could take the test oath. General
Candy published an opinion to the effect
that the preliminary session of the legisla-
ture elected in 1869 would be held under
the reconstruction acts requiring the test
oath, and not under the yet unratified state
constitution dispensing with the oath.
Because this was still an open question
Mr.. III. urged that out of abundant caution
the people should elect test-oath men. He
eoncurred as a lawyer in the legality of
General Canby's opinion. This question,
however, proved to be Of no practical con.
sequence; because the United States at
torney-general (Hoar) took middle course
IN the instructions which he gave General
Candy. He denied to the legislature at its
preliminary session the power to do any
thing else whatever than to ratify the Eff
teenth amendment; and declared that UNI
der the law it could vote upon that amend
ment if its members were duly qualified
under the inchoate state constitution.

THERE was but one class of people re-
presented in the Richmond Conservative
convention. and that class the non-produ-
GERS of the state. Country doctors, coun-
try lawyers, country merchants, county
judges, county clerks. gentlemen farmers
who hire their labor, and the sons of these
persons in or out of the professions, made
up the constituents of the body. But it
takes many classes to make people, and
the one class who figured in that body do
not constitute the people of Virginia. The
broadcloth was there, but the muscle
not.
With great complacency this convention
called themselves the gentlemen of Vir-
gnia, the conglomerated gentlity. intellect,
wealth and worth of the state; and they
proceeded to declare that they were the
real people of Virginia and that the state
belonged to them. But it was only repe-
tition of the action Of the settlers of a part
OF New England, who first, in formal meet
ing, resolved that all the lands belonged to
the saints, and then resolved that thew were
the saints.
The mechanical class had no voice or re-
presentation in this convention. %
The great capitalists, who own the banks,
the men of enterprise who own the mines
and factories, the operatives in the fields,
mines, factories, and forests were not
there. The producers of the state were
absent. The industries of the state were
unrepresented. Nobody was there but
non-producers, whose leisure hours are
spent in dwelling over the exploded and
abandoned politics of the era before the
war.
DO the Conservatves--do the nom
workers the state expect to carry this
great commonwealth on the ideas and
prejudices which they alone, one class of
all the people, hang on to like an old bro
ken merchant hangs on to his worthless
journal and ledger. This is live age Of
working men with progressive ideas and
span new aims. The state of Virginia
can't afford to put herself under the con-
troll of the one class of men who have
time to talk nonsenscal politics, and
white goods boxes by the hour at
country courthouses and crossroads.
On, no. Virginia has something else to do
besides listening to the parrot talk Of
the old politicians, and to severe condemn

ELECTION DAY;
TUESDAY,. NOVEMBER A. 1878.

The question, whether the Democracy
killed Greeley or Greeley the Democracy,
has been complacently settled by the Vir-
GINA Conservatives, SO far as they are con-
cerned. Their decision is, that Greeley
killed them last year; while the truth is,
that they destroyed Greeley in Virginia.
They are now proceeding upon the as
sumption that they made great blunder in
Greeley, and that they fell in 1872 by rea-
son Of that blunder. 1t was the adoption
of Greeley as their candidate which they
think destroyed them. The fact is the
other way. They had no chance of success
themselves. They felt that the people had
no use for their party. Their only chance
of redemption was through some such ex-
pedient as they had adopted in 1869 with
Walker; and they took Greeley as the
only plan Of salvation open to them.
But il was not in the power of mortal
man to redeem their cause with the peo-
Pile. Even Greeley failed to do it /; and
with an ingratitude natural to them, they
have ever since been pouring out their
walls of wrath upon Greeley's head. The
summation Of their case was this: their
party was lost anyhow, be yond the power
of burnt brandy or anything else TO save
it. In their extreme desperation they
took up Greeley-and the desperation was
extreme indeed to have induced so despe-
rate an experiment and Greeley failed to
save. There is no salvation for them.
Oh, no. The people of Virginia are
done with the secesh party and the old
fire-eating politicians. They have lost all
liberation for the men who are so blinded
with eopperhead poison as to keep up a
war with a government which has given
them pardon and peace, and which has
accepted their oaths of allegiance. With
am infatuation of folly worse than the
midsummer madness of last years
Greeleyism, The Conservatives have re-
pudiated their loyal professions of 1869
and 1872, and hope to have redeemed
themselves with the people of Virginia
by going back four years upon their own
record to take up and reconcile them
selves with Jubal Early and James
Barbour. They are buoyant with the
hope that having united again with two
men, they are bound to carry the state Of
Virginia. The powers of self-delusion are
prodigious, but even these will fail before
this canvass is over.
We do tell this party that, as every dog
has his day, ais day is past and gone.
Through all ages of human history, Restc-
rations have been abhorent to all democ-
racies. Restoration and Retrogression are
not now in the remotest Intentions of the
people of Virginia. Because Greeley went
backward TO conciliate them, he was repu-
dated. This Conservative party of theirs is
going back now, far away back of the point
at which Greeley met them last year. The
people won'tgo back with them. The motto
Of the people Of Virginia and of the true
republican democracy Of this age, coun-
try and state is progress; the watchword
is onaoard. Jubal EARLY and James Bar
bour will sink the Conservatives deeper in
perdition than Horace Greeley did.
