ISuch law was passed last winter


10 the Editor Of the Chnch Valley NcooS:
In looking over the proceedings OF the
rcadiusters' convention held ut Richmond
on the 18th ullimo. see that have been
appointed chairman oil the neer-pdrty COM
mttee for this county.
/ can see no good to be accomplished by
the formation OF new party in Virginia ut
this time. All that the friends OF readiu>t-
ment have been striving for for years has
been accomplished, and I think our Lcgis-
lature will do Virginia an irreparahle injury
il it refuses the terms now offered by the
.bondbolders. confess that in those terms
my most sanGuinc hopes have been realized,
and as a reidjuster | am more than Wiling
to accept what we have so long demanded.
The declaration Of principles contained in
the platform Of the new party seems to me
only calculated to keep alive that bitter con-
tention and Strife which discussion OF the
public debt has engcndered, and which |
earnestly hope is soon to cease. | think we
should all exert our influence to bring
about the immediate settlement OF that I'M
happy question which has so long disturbed
the public mind.
nm sincerely grateful for the honor con-
ferred; but, holding the principles above
expressed, I must decline to accept if.
Respectfully, r. X. HENRY.
MAJ CHI D, 1879.

WELL Done, GOVERNOR HoLLIDAY.-The
plan for Il settlement OF the public debt
reached the House OF Delegates in ample
time for its consideration and adoption by
that body, but by dilatory tactics the small
number who arc opposed to settlement
defeated it by tilbustcring until the time
arrived for the adjournment of the session ];
but the Governor came to the rescue, and
Immediately convened them in extra s@s-
sion, and it may be now pretty safely as
sumed that tue liberal offer OF the holders
OF the State bonds wilt be accepted, ana the
debt question be peaceabiy and forever SET
tled. Fuirfdr Messenger.

| The mougrel convention, by its il-timed
asscmbiage and notorious Misrepresentation
of the popular convention, may Justly share
10 the odlum attaching to this prolonged az
tation OF disturbing questions. Whether
| this added burden can sink that body
deeper into the vortex OF popular damna-
! ton is doubtful; but the feeling among the
people is overwhelmingly in favor Of an
immediate settlement on the terms pro-
posed, and those who have obstructed such
settlement will, as they should, be set apart
as utterly unworthy of trust and dangerous
to the welfare Of their constituents
Ciinch Valley NeuS.
The California Constitutional Convention
has srasped the Chinese problem with a
strong hand, and utters IN emphatic protest
against the degradation OF labor. 1t has
adopted provision prohibiting any corpo-
ration now existing, or hereafter to be FORM
ed Ia the State, from employing any Chinese
or Monaghan in any capacity, either direct
Iy or indirectly; also, forbiddlng their en-
ployment on any State, county, municipal,
or other public work. Thus does the SOW
ereign State of California rise in her might
and veto the veto OF the bogus President.-
Washington Post.
The readjusters' convention has brought
hundreds, il not thousands, over 10 earnest
~ demand that the debt-compromisc shall
be accepted, and the cry everywhere among
the people, as heard on their courtgrcens,
is that this matter must be now settled, and
she unity of the Conservative party pre-
served. More than that, the action OF the
reldiusters in forcing an extra session at the
cost VI the people has satisfied them OF the
absolute seliSsiness OF the leaders OF this
new par4y.-Lynchtary NenS.
Major Henry's letter is another evidence
that the true readiusters are no longer in
sympathy with the new party. that has done
all in IFS power to defeatreadiustment. The
effort that has been made to bind a large
party OF bonest men and carry them over 10
the camp OF the repudiators has most sig
nally failed. The sentiment OF Major
Henry's note is the sentiment of nineteen
twentietbs OF our people. They want read
justInent, and think that now is the time
10 get it, Ctinch Valley Ne,cS.
We trust that the Legislature willspeedily
adopt the bill to settle the public debt. 1t
is liberal and just; aud Us thus adjusted

What Chief-Justice fancy Said.

We Yesterday denied that Chiei-Justice
TANEY had ever said that negro had no
rights which white man was bound to re-
spcct. So general is the impression that he
did say so, that perhaps it will crafty many
persons to read the exact words which lie
used in the connection in which that dis
tinguishcd jurist employed them. We
therefore quote them from the opinion OF
the Supreme Court OF the United States in
the celebrated DRIED SCOTT case. The Chief
Justice said:
at is difficult at this day to realize the
state of public opinion III relation to that
unfortunate race, which prevailed in the
civilized and enlightened portions Of The
aporld at the time Of the Declaration Of In
depenie,ace, and when The Constitution OF
the United States was framed and adopted.
But the public history of every European
nation displays it in manner too plain to
be mistaken.
"They had for more than century be-
fore been regarded rs beings OF an inferior
order, and altogether unfit to associate with
the white race, either in social or political
relations, and so far inferior thai they had
no riqAts eohich THE lrhite man tcdS 0onnd
10 respect; and that the negro might Justly
ard lawfully be reduced to slavery for his
benefit" ~s
= We have italicized a few words. 1t will
be seen that Chlef-Justice rANEY's language
expressly refers to what was thought Of the
negro hundred years ago in the world at
large. He did not in this language allude
to what the negro's rights were in his day,
nor under the Federal Constitution. He
did not state it as fact "that the negroes
had no right 8 white man was bound to re-
spect.' He merely said what people thought
of the negro aAl over the civilized world in
the last century, rs shown by the history OF
every nation in Europe. See, therefore,
how outrageously unjust is the Cincinnati
Commercials language which we quoted
yesterday:
"Judse fancy stated as fact, not as a
point Of law, that a negro had no rights q
white man was bound to respect; and we
are afraid there is something in it yet in our
southern America"
But the Commercial gave utterancc to the
almost universal belief CT the northern peo-
pie. They are so deeply preiudiced against
the southern people that they cherish false
hoods as truths and publish them as such.
The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1879-03-11

When the late Judge GUlGoS OF this city
sras asked to summon negroes as 1urymeh
be gave the subject much consideration
and reached the conclusion that to 40 50
would be to summon them son account OF
race, color, and previous condition OF serVi-
tude - He therefore declined to do 1t.
Judge RrvEs, however, orders negroes 70
be summoned upon the yenfres IN DIS coui'
because they are negroes; thus violating
the law which forbids him to ran 10 sun
man anv white man on account OF his race.

In it. Nearly the whole OF the regular SEES

were most interested-a settlement OF the
