Let all statesmen beware Of discord In the
sight OF usurpatioh.a Is it not ever Che
strategy Of the usurper to divide his oppo.
nents9 His victory is rendered easy by the
divisions OF those opposed % him. Does
not the country seekthat Preaidcnt GRANT
discloses this policy in deyoting his annual
message to mendacious assault upon the
northern Democratsi He denounced them
as worse than southern rebels. Do we moi
see In this that he desired to impress north
ern Radicals with the idea that all his
usurpations were for their good? And
also at the same time did he not impress the
southern people with the idea that the
President liked them better than some other
people? Ahl and have we not seen the
liberal deductions that have beeu drawn by
some hungry southern people from this
bauble tossed at the South? Is it not given
out that the Radical distribution OF offices
will direct some very good sops to southern
men? How ready some people are to catch
at everything. -
Beware, we say, of feuds! Beware OF the
tricks Of the iaithlcss and the cruel. The
country is the stake. 1t argues badly foi
those who defend her to be disparagtng one
another. The contest should be as to which
among all who are on the side OF the re-
public shall contribute most to its defence
by wisdom, devotion, and unflagglns
energy.
To talk of resisting force and to cast sus-
picion on any section is 20 be wanting in
prudence. and to be delinquent in the senti.
ment of fellowship and fealty, which is the
very Jewel OF comrades in war. But VINO
should impeach the honor and bravery OF
sections Some communities may be more
impulsive and some more cautious than
others but can we say that any-when the
" cause" is made out and the field is enter.
ed-that any section would fail to vindicate
itself? Let us remember that there are ter.
rors in fratricdal conflict that no man who
loves his country can contemplate without
the gravity that is due to it. $685.
Let us look upon internecine strife as
calamity to be avoided by the resort to the
laws and the employment Of the civil usages
of the land. And let Us hope that there
will be a triumph which we shall look upon
as the just reward of the gallant struggle
made by the Democratic party of the North,
to which he all praise and honor as having
saved the republic and delivered the South
from bondage.

ADJUTANT-GENERAL.
| A House bill fixing the pay OF Adiutant-

long debate.
Messrs. GORDON and CECIL favored con-
tinuation of the present salary, referring to
the possibility OF the Office becoming one oil
great importance. - "
| Messrs. SMITH Of Fauquier and WALLACE
advocated the bill, the latter rejecting the
idea that anybody in Virginia at this time
wanted to fight.
Mr. TALIAFERRo of Gloucester wanted the
bill postponed until February or March, by
which time we would know what would be
done elsewhere. He repudiated the idea OF
AFFECT submission, referring to the remarks
Of Mr.. WALLACE.
Mr.. WALLACE disclaimed the construction
put upon his remarks by Mr.. TALIAFERRo,
and said that il war should be forced upon
us he would be in the midst Of it.
The bill was finally postponed and ordered
to be engrossed.

good would come OF any action in this mat

as is proposed by these resolutions Virginia
will be misunderstood and her silence mis-
4 construed. Such is not the case. Virginia
mas ever been understood In 1860, when

OF compromise was given up. Wade Hamp-
