SpoL1ATIoN OF VIRGINIA. Richmond
State Journal maintains its ground in reference
to the ''dismemberment' of Virginia. In re-
ply to correspondent who objects to its posi-
ton, it says, with force and ability:
what we said of the 'strangled sovereignty
of Virginia, We meant; and what we sad OF
her spoliation and robbery, we meant. Al
though Union soldier, and fighting in the
interests Of national unity and sovereignty, We
neither helped to despoil nor rob Virginia. L
Subscriber can say as much, we shall be glad
to have him say it. In the editorial referred
to, we laid down principle Of law universally
recognized by civilized nations that where one
sovereignty supplants another 1t takes its la
bilities along with the supplanted soverei gn1,,y
and eminent domain We have repeatedly
said that the partition and spoliation of 'lr,
pinia was wrong-that there was no warrant
for it but in the last and most desperate neces,
sty of war and that when the war ceased the
State should have been RENTED to its ancient
jurisdiction and rights Of sovereignty Its spo
liation was never justified on any other grounc
than that of the making and war-exactlDg
power. No other State was stripped OF its ter
ritory or subjected to strangulation and rob
