Dying to be Counted In.

A special despatch from Bath to the
Portland Argus says:
The seat Of Mr.. Edwin ID. LamsOn, repub.
lican, in the Senate from Sagadahoc county,
il - be contested by Mr.. Barker, on the
grodnd that the former 10 ineligible. never
having been naturalized. The matter Is now
before the Governor and Council.
1t will not take take the Governor and
Council long to decide, if such case Is
before them. that they have no more au.
thority to determine such question than
to say who are eligible in Massachusetts,
or South Carolina. Some of the green.
hackers have very peculiar opinions abeu,
the power Of the Governor and Council,
evidently believing that they are law
unto themselves in regard TO senators and
representatives, and can count out or in
whomsoever they please. They arr
greatly mistaken. The constitution and
the laws point out the duty Of the Govern.
or and Council very clearly. and that duty
is not to decide in regard to eligibility, OF
to count out or in anybody, but to examine
the copies of the lists returned and issue
summonses to such persons As shall ap-
pear to be elected by q majority of the
votes in each district to attend and take
their seats in the legislature. 1t 10 an In.
teresting spectacle TO witness with what
pertinacity these don'twant-Any Office
candidates cling to the idea that the Gov.
ernor and Council will override the con.
stitution and laws just to help them into
Office! Have they neither sense MOI
deccncy that they will make such An ex.
hibition OF themselves?

politics, but we stand aside before his i'm.
pressive entrance and his stately steppings,
and bend listening, eager ears to catch his
earliest utterances and learn from the pur.
poses he declares the things Fate has in store
for mankind. In his Freshman and Sopho.
more years in college the Youth Of America
devotes his energies chiefly to the scheme of
education, in which he finds serious defects
which demand immediate reform. Could he

remain of the same mind, he would undoubt.

vogue, and he would certainly bounce the in.

We are amazed at the Valley Virginian.
We have never said one single word
against the negroes. We have merely IN
sisted upon the truth of the statement that
il was their vote that turned the scale IN To-
yor OF the Readiusters, and we have als-
tipctly stated that they voted SO because
they considered that they were Young
against the Conservative party ana not
against the McCuLLocH bill. We have never
charged the Republicans as party win
any design to repudiate the State debt. we
have merely retorted upon the New York
Tribune and other Republican journals
that il was Republicans that carried the
Virginia elections for what they called re-
quotation. In 4 word, every charge that
the Yirginian brings against us is false.
Read what we say, not what you choose
to think we mean, and then you Will not
fall into such errors again. .,@

EDITORS U,spatch entiemen,- seeing
that your paper Is regarded, and deserYsaly
no. as the chief exponent not only OF Con-
seryat,snl. but or Democracy In virginia
Vol, will r,nrdof1 me for the following sus-
restiof,, which strikes me rs being OF some
irnportnnce in the present attitude OF aiialis.
!, Since the. election the Conservative press
has labored, and is laboring, to show 10 the
country that the Rcsdiusters' victory, iay-
ing the State liable to the charge OF repuai-
alton, IS owing entirely to the negro Yo.e'
that the best class OF people OF all parlles,
and Chiefly the Conservative party, as =
party, an,agonized and fought the heaa-
iusters. Yet your paper ana atl lns otuels
are constantly alludlng 10 Inc heaulusts's
az Conservative Readlusters anu ioi
DAYS you have been noting the parry con-
pIsSien OF the approaching LEGISLATURE
giving the Republican members as RepnD-
licas,s, and br your classification dlqldlnS
the Conservatives into two classes--to-Wlt,
conservative Debt.payers and Conservative
ReYdiusrers. Now. what is the natural and
inevitable effect OF this upon the general
reader, rlnacquainted as he is, aud unmind-
fIII OF the real party lines and party histo-
ry? No other than to indicate to him that
the question OF the public debt wasa minor
question with the Conservatives, on which
members OF the same party were allowed to
differ, and both shades Of the Conservative
party engaged in the common cause OF
lighting the Republicans; and (observe
you) that the Readjusters were elected rs
Conservatives, inside OF the party; that
they are the nominees OF the Consei yatlVe
party, aud recognized by the authorities OF
the party. The general public Is thus mis-
led, and the party which has boasted OF bay
ing the wealth, intelligence, and integrity
OF the State in its ranks brought into disre-
pute. think it about time for us to learn,
and to bear 1t in mind, that the Radjusters
are separate and apart from us. They have
openly thrown off their obligations long
since to the Conservative party, and tried
in every possible way 10 get clear out OF
our party and have one to themselves, and
we ought to see that they don't take our
baptismal name with them.
[ merely designed to offer the suggestion
that the prominent organ of the ConserVa-
tiyes ought not to class members OF sepa-
rate, distinct, antagonistic organization as
Conservatives. Yours truly, ID.

Virginia Reputation.

The Virginia negroes voted very solidly
for reajustment," While the Democrats
voted quite rs solidly for the payment OF
the State debt in full. This shows what all
element of confusion and trouble the en-
frauchisement OF the pcgroeS. without quail
tcations OF any kind, has introduced into
southern civil affairs. Still this trouble
could have been got over had the Republic
cans not poisoned the minds OF the negroes
with prejudice against the conservative,
property white people OF the South,
making the former feel that the latter are
their enemies, and that some Republican
Moses at Washington or elsewhere will de-
liver and protect and provide for them. The
two races in the South have only one in
terest. The labor and the land, the work
and the clpita. the industry and the intelll-
geuce to direct it probably, should go to-
getDer, and I've united in the closest bonds
OF amity and goodwill, as they are in in
tereSt. The Republicans have sown discord
where otherwise there would have been
harmony. They have set the two races
against each other in order TO control both.
And the deplorable, the disastrous. conse-
aucnccs of their work appear wherever they
have had sway. And the determination OF
the Virginia negroes 10 vote against the
wishes and in opposition TO the ideas OF the
conservative white men in this matter oil
reputation is one result OF their diabol!cal
policy.-Ne,o YORK; E1preSS.
