culean undertaking indeed. His present
reward is not altogether gratifying; but it
must be great in time. and that not q long
time, either.
The leaders OF the Republican party OF
the war had learned that the WY to the
presidency and the higher Offices was
through sectional agitation, and they cannot
now give that up. They must continue to
inflame the northern public mind with dis
trust of tine South, and ill-will towards the
South, as the only means Of banding the
North soiidly against the South and keeping
the Federal offices to themselves. The con-
spiracy in the United States Senate was got
ten up to procast the national discord by
breaking down the force and authority Of
the Administration.
President HAYES knows that while the
Republican party rests its triumph upon
sectlonalism there can be no fraternal feel
ing and harmony between the northern and
southern States. He was philosopher
enough to see that the discord and feuds
that have distracted the country could not
continue without peril to the nation, and
he was patriot enough to, throw himself
into the breach, and TO endeayor by bis ad.
ministration to put an end to the violent
partisan war. ~
Nor can he fail, The people are wearied
of the war, and those OF the North, as we'll
as those Of the South, have seen that the
best interests OF the nation have fearfuiiy
suffered from it. The extreme Republi-
cans, who hesitate not to seek to bold the

Governor Holiday.

b. We liked Governor HOLIDAY inaugural
speech so much that we slept soundly enough
unop II. we continue TO trust what the
Governor so warmly and manfuhy Pro
nounced to be his opinions and his sentt-
mcpts before the world preference to any
reports concerning them that profess to DC
obtained through personal interviews. Men
are especially excitable upon public matters
when they are made the means OF personal
ambition and the implements with which TO
play the game OF office hunting and party
conflict in office-flling. Such men, under
the spur OF partisan excitement, can hardly
be trusted to report fairly any dialogue
upon subjects prolific Of disputation, which
reports are 50 liable to he warped by the
bias Of partisanship.
Governor HOLIDAYS decorum and
blandness. are very apt to be interpreted
into Kindness to the opinions rather than
the persons Of very pronounced partIsans.
We therefore must receive with grain OF
salt tue reports of interviews with the Gov
ernor by any excitable person who attrlb-
utes to him views and sentiments ineonsist-
emf with those which, like statesman and
an honorable gentleman, he has openly pro-
claimed before thousands OF his fellow-cit-
liens. - III So
In saYiug this we only utter what we be-
lieve to be reasonable and logical opinions.
We have no authority better than anybody
else's to speak for the Governor. We be-
Iieye not in organs. and we have no desire
| ever to be one. We speak our own opin-
ions, and we would not be unfair to any
one, not even a:governor. Why should we
reject what the Governor himself says and
20 after the rumors that fly from sources
and circumstances that by no means entitle
them to q credit that can impair the Gov
errors own word?
We trust that the reporters, who gre I'M
derstood to meet in secret, and who sup
press the report of their own proceedings,
may not find fault with the caution with
which their reports OF the sayings OF other
people are received. They who keep facts
concerning their doings with regard to
public measures a secret could hardly be
considered entirely reliable in reporting
others upon the same public matters. The
bias which constrains them to IN indiscre-
ton in matter OF propriety towardo the
public might well excite distrust OF the
fairness OF their representations OF the po-
sition OF others upon subjects on which
they seek to hide their own position and
opinions from the public. ~

The Religious Herald says that all the
people who ever lived could have been
buried in Virginia rs she was before
the war, and each grave could have been
three feet by six. Let us see. There
were over $4,000 square miles Of land
in Virginia; but we will use round num-
bers. $4,000 square miles contain 32,0oO,-
coo acres, and these about 100000, 600
square feet. Divide this last number by
eighteen-the number of square feet to one
grave-and we have about 100000, 900
graves. These would contain only seven
generations such as the present, or the per-
sons who have died within the last ESQ
years. These are such large figures, how
ever, that there may be an error in them.

With its usual energy and enterprise, the
Richmond Dispatch issued, as is its custom,
a magnificent double sheet on New-4ear's
day. We say magnificent, because the value
OF the information Oh all subjects contained
in it's columns is very great, and to collect
and arrange in the proper form must have
necessitated a vast expenditure OF both
labor and capital. There is no subject re-
lating to Richmond on which you cannot
find interesting and useful information.

MAURY, LII. D., &C., late Professor OF
Physics, Virginia Military Institute, with
Notes and Additions by his son. July /,
1877. Published by Direction Of the
Board of Immigration, and by authority
OF law. Richmond: N. v. RANDOLPH. =.
This pamphlet is one OF the latest works
Of the lamented Commodore MAURY. The
Board Of Immigration thought so highly of
it that it ordered it to be published for the
instruction Of immigrants. 1t is accompa-
MED by large and well-printed map OF
Virginia, which will be useful to those hav-
ing the pamphlet. 1t is a map of Virginia
alone, and it is the presentation Of this
poor, isolated old Virginia that calls up to
our minds afresh the great outrage Of the
partition Of the noblest State OF the re.
public: o division OF her sacred soil with
out her consent, and her compulsory APP
prevail Of this great outrage committed
upon her. People have their different views
as to the greatest wrong under the fate OF
the war, We have ours, and it is that the
longest lived and most burning Of all the
wrongs the war has left us is the partition OF
eur dear mother Virginia, and her reforma-
ton in the most abominable shape our eyes
ever beheld. The wrong is descriptive OF
our most devoted feelings, offensive to
classic history and civilization. Commodore
MAURY's book is valuable, but we feel
sort OF regret creeping upon us that any
body should yet awhile undertake an in

THE INAUGURAL.
The Committee for Courts of Justice SUBJ
mitted the following:
"The Committee for Courts Of Justice
have, according to order, had under con-
sideration resolution for the appointment
OF committee TO wait upon the Governor
and request of him copy OF his inaugural
address, to be printed under the orter OF
the House, and without expressing any
opinion as to the paper, and whilst having
the pr0fouudest respect for the Executive,
vet your committee do not regard the paper
rs an official document, and for that reason
are OF the opinion that it ought not to be
printed at the public expense.
sYour committee ask the adoption OF the

"Resoiued, That the committee be dis

tee. IL is now a matter OF county and
courtesy between coordinate branches OF

inauguration he would nave SEM MS mes
sage in in the regular way; and that it was
not establishing a precedent, for that each
house hereafter would act for itself indc-
pendent of what is now done.
Mr.. HARyIE was the last person who
would do what he thought discourtesy to
the Governor; the Governor had his entire
respect and confidence. Hr. HARyIE had
read the address over and often. At first
he thought it dissented from his own views.
He had, however, called upon the Governor
and paid him his respects, and would do 1t
again.
But this address was never intended rs 4
message. Mr.. HARvIE declared he was under
the impression that there was not word
in it which he didn't endorse heartily and
thoroughly. and he would be glad to see it
spread broadcast over the State. Mr.. HAIR
VIE understood the Governor to favor the
marshalling of the assets OF the State for
the settlement OF the debt.
He believed that the Governor meant to
act in harmony with the General Assembly,
and he would, he thought, when the time
came, be found standing side by side with
the Governor.
Mr.. HARylE was, however, not to be dl-
verified from his opposition to this innova-
ton upon our customs by quotations from
congressional proceedings. There was little
Congress had done in the past decade he
approyed. But he held, with all his re-
spect for the Governor, that the address was
not official; that there was no discourtesy
in refusing to print it; that the General
Assembly had the right to consider the debt
question without Executive interference;
that the Governor had not interfered, and
hadn't uttered one solitary word Intended
for the General Assembly; that 1t would be
unfair to seize upon the inaugurai-pos-
sibly his undigested yiews-and give it
official character; that he didn't distrust
the motives OF the members and the people
who differed with him, nor did he differ 80
very widely from General ANDERSON.
General ANDERSON didn't expect the
merits of the debt question to be referred to
in the consideration of this question. de
regarded the address as an official dOcll-
.ment. 1t was delivered after the taking OF
the oath OF office and to a committee repre-
senting this body. He thought 1t cues
ton of ordinary courtesy that ought to ex-
list between the two branches OF the govern
5ment. General ANDERSON expressed tine
belief that consultation would soon bring
all, or nearly all, the memoirs together on
the debt question, and he doubted not the
Governor would be found in harmony with
them. Z e Z. s u. NJ 81. 49,.
