From he MartiRsb'Tg Statesman.
West Virginia the Hub of the Union

Among the incidents which occurred in the
city Of New York on the SOth of October, was
a lunch to some thirty or forty OF the distin-
guished democrats in that city. After the
lunch was disposed Of few hours were spent
in tolsis and speaking. The speaker who
preceded Mr. Faulkner. very ably defended the
solid South, aud showed very conclusiyely that
the united sentiment which now distinguishes
that section Of the country, resulted from the
wrongs of radicalism, and that this union had
been accomplished in the interests Of peace,
good order aud the welfare Of our common
country. The State Of West Virginia then
being toasted, and Mr.. Faulkner being called
upon TO reply to it said
90 I 10 not know whether the distinguished
gentleman who preceded me and SO eloquently
yindcated the solid South, meant to inclnde
my St1te in his classification Of the solid
SOUTH ! confess have not been a little puz-
zlcd TO determine in my own mind to which Of
the four grand divisions Of our republic the
State Of West Virginia belongs whether 10
the Sclid South, the solid North, the solid
East, OF the solid West Two thirds Of her
territory lie within the Valley Of the Mississippi
aud one third upon the Atlantic slope. \
considerable portion Of her soil lies north of
the southern Pennsylvania line, while another
large portion lies south Of the northern Ken
tucby line. Her rivers flow north, south, east
aud west, miugling their waters with those Of
the Mississippi. in the Gulf Of Mexico, and
with those Of the RlppahannOck and York in
the Chesapeake Bay. After some reflection
have reached the conclusion that West Viz
giuia is the HuJ Of the tRj0a. Laughter aud
ApplauseD and should be respected by her Sis
ter States as such But whatever question
may be raised as 10 her precise position in the
I physical geography Of the nation, there can
De none Us to her position Oh the political map
I Of this country. She has recently shown be-
/ y0ud al, question that she belongs to the solid
/ democracy of the UuioD. applause, and
/ that she is one Of the three October States,
/ which, by the results Of their elections on the
/ lOth Of the month, have broken the back Of
the republican party, and have secured a GER
tain triumph 20 the democratic ticket on the
9Th day Of November. lApPlause.l My own
impression Is that you are hardly more in
iebtcd % Indiana than to West Virginia for
that moral influence u victory which is every
where producing such important changes ia
the North and West"

Glorious Result.

The Battle is fought and Victory achieved,
and its import is unity Of the sections, frater-
nifty among all the people, security for liberty
for al, returning conf lenco in our mutual
prosperity, the deadly passions besotten by the
unhappy Strife between the sections dethroned
forever. The victory indicates both the good
ness and the greatness Of the masses; yiadi-
Gates that IN contention with the greatest and
most dangerous combination Of history that
they are the migbtiest; that the theory Of our
institutions put the helm into their hands and
that through hurricane and sunshine they have
guided our ship to an imprognable port
Thsnkfulness fills every democr attic heart
The goodness Of God has been great to them
and the spirit Of mercy prevails To those a.
moog the people who have differed with them
In the spirit Of the Reloemer they say forgive
them FOR they knew no, what they did. 10

obedience TO the laws necessary to secure pub
lie liberty viii repose in security. Jails, II

Mr.. Faulkner and the Wheeling In
telligencer.

Ihe I,t,TgcHctr aud is correspondents have
been dcyotog column after column to the
condemnation Of remark ascribed TO Mr.
Faulkner in bis Clarksburs speech made on
the 81 Of this month. That remark was sub
stan.aly this. Mr.. Faulkner after alyer;ing
10 the frauds and military violence by which
President Grant, and his Secretary Of War,
Cameron, are seeking to coerce the States Of
South Carolina. Florida aud Louisiana to vote
the republican ticket, said d" that if he WAS
satisfied that tie votes Of those States had been
drago01ed for Hayes by these illegal and uncou-
suJuJiJual means, and that a majority was thus
procured for Hayes 10 the electoral college, that
he, as one member Of the House Of Representa-
tiyes. would refuse 20 count them 10 the decision
ofthc Presidential, election" This proclaimed
10 be revelation, and 1lr. Faulkner is held up
before the nation as dangerous aud alarming
asjAtor. Now can anything be more absurd
aud childish than such stuff from that ordi-
uarily sensible aud intelligent i0Urnal2 The
course which Mr Faulkner indicated that be
would pursue, aud which would have the APP
