VIRGINIA CONSERVATIVES.
Ex-Governor Gilbert G.. Walker Nomi-
mated for Congrcss-lIc Gives His Views
on the Civil Rights Bill and the Third
Term Question.
RICHMOND. August %, 1874.

RICHMOND, August 26 1874.
As the readers OF the HERALD have already been
advised, Ex-Governor Gilbert G. Walker was nomi.
mated to-day by the Convention OF this the metro.
poitan district Of Virginia. as candidate for the
Forty fourth Congress. The work OF the Conven-
ton was brief, harmonious and enthusiastic. Or
ganization was effected In few moments BY the
election OF Judge Cox, OF Chesterfield, as Chair
man, after which appropriate committees were
appointed. one hundred and fifty delegates
were present. without further ceremony, no
other candidate being put in nomination,
Walker was by acclamaton declared the
nominee for Congress OF the conservative party OF
the Third Virginia district. Cheer upon cheer fol.
lowed TINS announcement, and 1t was some time
before order was restored. This was severe re.
buke to some OF the old Bourbon politicians OF this
district, who ventured to make some opposition to
Walker as a Northern man, and it clearly demon
strates that the rising generation are determined
to be no longer controlled by their old political
leaders. 1t showed, too, the gratitude OF the yir-
ginlans for the service he had done the state as
Governor in her most trying time soon after the
nomination a committee appointed for the pur-
pose conducted Governor Walker to the Conven-
ton, where, after being repeatedly cheercd, he
addressed the Convention substantially as fol-
lows:-
THANK You, gentlemen of the Convention, for
matter and the manner Of your action to-day
tender you my profound acknowledgment. TO be
nominated at any time by respectable conven-
tion as a candidate for Congress from the metro
politan district OF Virginia Is a high compliment,
but to be nominated by reclamation, and that TOO,
by convention composed Of one hundred ana
hity gentlemen, the chosen representatives OF
the people of every part OF the district, and
at time when grave questions OF the
highest Importance to the nation are
crowding thick and fast upon public attention, Is
at once the expression OF great confidence and
high expectations. And nc, Whom YOU have ID this
Wanner 80 highly b0rored baRs to assure yoh that
that confidence MILL never be betrayed.
