The action of the Democratic mart,

The action of the Democratic party,
rs announced in the programme else
where, is likely to prove great blrrac';
for it virtually rccedre ffoGi The position
assumed ty the party, and at the same
Hnlc offers the President another oppor-
tunity of putting in veto, which he will
no doubt avail himself Of, to the utter
confusion of the Democracy. ii wc
cannot pass the appropriation bills With
the riders on rs n permanent Ian, we
cannot pass them with what is tanta-
mount TO them for one year. A veto
from The President on this ground would
confuse US more than all the others com
blncd. If Congress would pass both
appropriation bills with the riders on
them, and adjourn without waiting for
the Presidents signature, ne RESPONSE
bility of withholding supplies from the
government would bc shifted from the
shoulders Of The Democratic party to
those of the Republican President, where
it really ought to rest now. II is not
the Congress, which offers the supplies
under Wholesome restrictions, that is
blocking the government, but it s the
Republicans President who asserts his
will as stronger than the wishes of the
representatives Of the people. Instead
of defending our action, we ought to be
raising n tempest Of popular Indignation
against the undue use Of power on the
part of Mr.. Hayes.

If Henry Clay, who in his day and
time was considered prc-emincntly II
conservative man, had lived in this age
he would certainly not have sail: "Thc
great principle which lies ut tho founda-
ton of all free governments is that Tie
majority must govern, from which there
is nor can be no appeal but the sword.
That minority ought to govern wisely,
equitably, moderately and constitutions
ally; but govern it must, subject only to
that terrible appeal" A peep in nt the
present session Of Congress would immc-
diately convince the departed statcman
that he WAS mistaken, for ne see minori-
ty controlling the majority, who in def
ercnce to their wishes, back down from
the measures passed, and actually cringc
before that minority, to the extent of
claiming that in attempting the proposed
changes in the law they had no idea of
enforcing them, if they were sufficiently
distasteful to the Republican minority to
induce the President to withhold his
signature. Our course Mt the time
when Tildcn WAS elected President by
more than quarter of million mnjori-
ty, and yet Mr. Hayes obtained the office,
would also confirm him that he was mis-
taken. Mr.. Clay, however, would 10
doubt have n contempt for the majority
which would he run over in such n man
ncr, and If we ,io not mind iir; IL the
feeling which the course Of our party
will enGcnhcr in the public estimntion.

Doings of the Commission.

SAN PINOs, Col, December 3.-Ges-
terday witnessed the first success OF the
commission. COlorow, of the White
River Utes, came and gave testimony
and then voluntarily surrendered HIM
self a prisoner in the following speech:
General Adams has been an Agent of
ours, and is now an officer of the United
States. General Hatch is high officer
of the government; Ouray you are also
an officer of the United States appointed
to settle this affair and part us, who
have foOlishily and Criminally gone to
fighting. ! hereby surrender myself;
what more can dO?'
The expression on Ouray's face at the
end of the speech was a study. What |
have seen | will tell YOU, whether for or
against my people. | will not tell Il lie,
was his response to an interrogatory OF
General Adams. He gave the names OF
twenty Indians killed, two missing and
several wounded in the Thornburgh
fight; said that Abraticr Pccuit was the
Indian who took Mrs. Price prisoner
who claimed 10 her that he
was an uncompaghnic tte. He
never met the Mormons personally, but
knew those who had, to whom the
proposition was made to furnish arms
AMI ammunition. General Hatch S
theory that the fight between the In
dians and the soldiers was an accident
was clearly proven. The Indians had
left the main road to avoid the soldiers,
and if Thornburg had kept the main
road he would have reached the Agency
unmolested. The Commission will on
Saturday, probably demand the surren-
der of the twelve Indians engaged in
the agency massacre. Ouray will at
tempt to carry out the demand and a
lively Indian fight may be witnessed by
the Commission.

Since the railroad meeting OF last Fri
dav night, which resulted favOrably for
the building of the Wheeling and Park
ersburg road, there being fair repre-
sentation OF the people Of this county, |
have interviewed considerable num-
Der of people through whose lands in
all probability the railroad, il built,
will pass, and | think, from the repre-
sentations made me, there will be no
difficulty rs 10 the right OF way. In
deed, SO far as 4 pretty thorough search
made among our people in reference to
the building OF the road will authorize
me. can say that have not found a
man opposed to il. Both the Wheeling
and Parkersburg, and ParkerSburg and
Charleston railroads are the principal
themes OF conversation. Wood county
will do her share OF the proposed work.
III the other river counties will dO their
share as well as Wood county, the frui-
ton Of our hopes is but question OF q
short time.

VIRGINIA.
Meeting of the Legislature.

RICHMOND, December 3.-The Gener-
al Assembly Of Virginia met to-day IN
its first biennial session under the re-
cent amendment TO the constitution pro-
viding for a regular session once IN
every two years. All the Senators, forty
in number, were present, and in the
House ninety-eight ont of one hundred
answered To their names. The work OF
organization began at once and pro-
gressed quietly to the end, the re-adjust-
ers electing all their officers in
both House and Senate. The
majorites by which the officers OF the
House were elected ranged from 10 to
Is, while in the Senate they ranged from
S TO l., showing an average Joint ma
jority OF % for the Readjusters. After
perlecting an organization the Joint
committee waited on Gov. Holiday TO
inform him ofthe fact, and he soon there
after sent in his message, which was al
most wholly devoted TO the discussion
OF the debt. He fully endorses the
settlement made during the last
session, known as the McCulloch
Bill, and states that Notwithstanding
all the agitation looking 90 the repeal OF
the measure, which had a tendency TO
check the bringing in OF old bonds,
nearly eight and half million OF dollars
of old bonds had already been eX-
changed for new ones. He regards the
States credit as far above all other con-
siderations, and SAYS that nothing save
inability can justify or excuse the non
payment of the State debt.
After reading the message in the
Senate resolution was adopted, under
suspension OF the rules, fixing Friday,
the ath inst, for the election OF State
officers, including the Secretary OF the
Commonwealth, First and Second
Auditors, Treasurer, &c, fourteen in

joint ballot justities the assertion that
