pa BARBOUR AND HUNToN.-I observe
that the WaIrrnton ludex insists that MIR.
Barbour and his irieuds are bruud to submit to
rhr action Of tn A ezandria Conv: ntion and
support Its notuiuee As Mr. Barbour's claims
were ncver submitted to that Convention it is
difficult TO See how Mr. Barbour is 10 any way
bound 10 bow TO lis decision. That Convention
virtually accommodated, not only Mr. Bar
bour bur the great mass Of his supporters, from
The pale OF the Conservative party. The Glass
cock delegation Was composed of gentlemen
who had never voted anything but the Conser-
Vatlve ticket in their lives; yet, because they
bad announced their Intention to support COL
Mosby 10 the event of his being an on indepen-
dent candidate, they are excluded from all com
muuon with the party Clearly then men who
have beeo excluded from all political fellowship
with the Conservative organization are uDder
no sort OF obligation to support its candidate
Gen. Hunton's friends took the ground in the
Convention that all Independents (Mosby mem
were to be Ireated as Radicals; now they have
the etfrnntry TO ask these very men whom they
wantonly iusulted TO vote for their candidate
According to the logic of the Huntou men these
independents have no right to participate 10
the proceedings of township meeting or to
act as delegates to Conservative Convention,
but yet are bound by the action Of a Conven.
ton from which they have been excluded. 10
other words they are Inside the Conservative
party when Hunton wants their votes. aud they
are outside when they vote against him. 1t is
well Known that Mr.. Barbour was one of the
supporters of Col. Mosby, and the decision of
the Convention 10 exclude the Glascock deleea-
ton virtually excluded Mr. Barbour, for they
all stood on the same ground. The Alexandria
Convention having therefore communicated
Mr. Barbour and all his friends, must not look
to them 10 support Its nominee.
