THE NEW PARTY.

THE NEW PARTY.
The Honorable Congo NJ. Davis, whose
,ar.tign name Is Cepbas, and who repre-
,.D,. ,bc .Nacklingburg deestrick in the
..ns,e Of Virginia, aired his views in that
,nsr N wednesday with considerable voice
r,,n The subject o! social equality between
- r,rrs when the election OF SuperiD-
.oodsn. o; Public Printing was up. The
III, Cong. took very little pains to conceal
,he far, that in bis opiuion negro is about
a. ,,ool rs white man, and perhaps little
he,ter: and the Hon. Mr.. Riddleberger, In
.ome remarks submitted BY him directly
.rsrwarGs, said that he fraternized with
,be representatives. sent to that body by any
and every constituency, and that every one
e,.e would have TO come TO doing the sane,"
which iusties the remark, by the way, that
/. ,b,re does not seem to be any very vide
difference between the views Of Hon. Cong.
and those Of the Hon. Dir. Riddleberger
upon that subject.
T, the course of his remarks, the afore-
said Hon. Cong. said, "When meet with

Now. wc confess to having beard this
5,claratjon from the Hon. Cong. with pecu-
yi,r pleasure: for 1t enabled us by the in
tyorablc laws OF logic to place the Read
iv.,er in his exact position in the social
.cafc. II is an elementary tbeorem that
things WHICH arc equal 10 the same thing
are equal TO one another; and it follows
tAal il, when Congo mccls.-a Readiuster,
be meets his equal, then when Readjuster
mceis Congo he meets his equal also, and
20 bv The rules Of logic, which never mis-
lead. we know exactly where to place the
Resdjusttr in the human family. III the
Hol. Ccphas does no other good during
his legislative career, he will ut least have
entitled himself to the gratitude OF the
State for hnyin. solved this problem. y
The Hon. Cong. Mr.. Davis made the
! speech to which reference Is made above
on Wednesday The 10th. On yesterday he
agan aired his views on matters and things
In two or more dlscourses. A member OF
the Senate having 1eferred to the fact that
Colonel Randolph Harrison twhom he was
rlaciug in nomination for the office OF Re-
gi,ter OF the Land Office, which he has
ilcd most acceptabIy ever since the death
Of Major i;oykin) was one-lcSged Confed-
crate soldier, the Hon. Cong. proceeded to
give his views touching the status or the
Confederate soldier at this time. We made
notes oil what he said, and present them as
VIC took them down. He said it was nul-
sance To continue to talk about Confederate
soldiers in the Senate OF Firginiu; that he'd
Hike 10 have rule Of tue Senate passed to
prohibit mentioning Confederate soldiers
in that chamber. The Legislature OF Nir-
glnia was not the body to reward Con-
Iederatc soldiers. He had heard a
great deal OF talk lately about the
onc.lcgccd Confederate soldier who was
defeated for the office OF Doorkeeper OF hhe
House By G. W. Cook, the ,colored man.
That soldier ought to have been defeated.
lie went into the wrong party in the war.
! anh OH. BIT to have lost his leg. He ought
never 10 mention his services in that cause
here. After having taken that side and lost,
and confessed they were wrong, tho Con-
iederalc soldiers ought never to come to the
Legislature OF Virginia for anything. The
Confederate soldiers, instead Of coming and
asking for rewards, ought to be satisfied
10 let their names 60 down to oblivion.
We confess to observing the great advances
which the new party is making in ideas
mir ;cfo 4 G
this rubbish about the people who lost
limbs In trying to protect the women and
children and bearthstoneS Of Virginia to be
laid aside. Let us have no more OF 1t, and
let them perish with starvation and want.
By the way, we recall attention to the
fac, that the Hon. Mr.. Riddleberger de-
elarea that he f"Qtern;zed with every sena-
Tor on tha, floor. FrdterRiEed is good
from the Latin Of trater, q brother In
other words, Mr.. Riddleberger acknew-
lodges brother in every senator there. Is
possible that some Buttercap presided
over the youth of the Hon. Cong. and Of
Mr. kiddleherger? We all recOllect how
