were upon US.
Next, they stated that they would reior1
the Court of Appeals and repeal nrs' wv
funding bill, aud next the McCuLLoch ui'.
And what OF thatf Why, JAMES ahfhel
JONES, noble virginian and aole hwy. :,
declares that he ABHoRs the "no,e iue
~ reforming the Court OF Appeals anu
now Judge WILLIAM j. ROBERTSON - ou.
against the aborninable scheme TO oresh
down Virginia justice and scatter oy seu'.
ton the peace and happiness OF the peopie
o! Virginia; and thus we nave TUG se'ono
:. abortion,' In which Virginia r1ses supp :,
r-or 70 calamity, and to that frustrated eYl
which, had planned the disaster OF tne SSonu,
rnonwealth and the triumph over FH'oe u
dishonesty aud corruption. .%
The whole scheme OF the Destruc'iSe
party which had planned to DreaA oo"n
the Commonwealth Of Virgins thus laiis W
the ground. The men who had been grossly
iusulted with the idea that they cou'd DC
empioyed as the instruments for the oesr'''
da,ion OF their Commonwealth have bravery
and nobIy repudiated the part allotted 10
them by such men as MALONE and MASSEY.
Great was the insult offered them. ihey
proudly repudiated it. JAMES ALFRED
JONES has yindicated himself. Judge no.
sERrsoN has done the same thing; ana
where. then, will MALONE and MASSEY ana
the lesser lights hide their diminished heads
from the lightning OF public indignation
which has been gathering in rage over
them under their accumulated deceptlons
We shall see. Never was there such an
amount OF proyocation piled up for public
wrath and how 1t is possible for the recu'
SAINTS to deliver themselves from their en-
barrassments, We know not.
Mr.. HUNTER has hurled upon them
weight Of ignominy which it is not possible
for them tostand up under. They must be
crushed down into the very dust. MI.
HUNTER rises like ATLAS under the load
which those who wanted to force him to
submit cndeavored to Cypress him with,
and with one great exertion hurled upon
them the ponderous load that was intended
for him and brushes them into annihilatloB.
That's it. ~. ..
He stands like triumphant giant for the
peace settlement, for the order OF the social
peace and serenity Of the Virginia homes,
and for the dignity and grandeur OF the
Commonwealth.
Now what is left? Shall those who sought
TO ruin the State by the ''taoo thirds -,
shall those who followed the sordid and sell
fish MAHoNE-continue to hope for any
earthly advantage from the Court OF Ap-
peals? Are they madmen? Are they
pirates? For nothing on Gods earth short
of violence and convulsion-short of uII-
setting the government itself and Destroy
ing the peace and happiness Of the COM
munity-of the Virginia people could &C.
compish anything whatever, and what
would that be? Fellow-citizens, that would,
after all, be ruin to the people and annihila-
ton to the grandest OF all the States Of the
UnioI-the Commonwealth Of Virginia.
Need we call upon such men as MALONE,
and MASSEY, and FULKERsoN, and BLAIR,
ell i'd omne genus, to contemplate such ruin
as this ?
Do they dream that they are capable OF
this ruin? Would they dare to commit this
ruin if they were able to perpetrate it?
But, people of Virginia, is it in order to
address such question to such undeserv.
ing persons, who have brought their State
to this fearful precipice? Are we Virgin
ians going to leave these people to consider
a question OF this kind?
Never. Let US at once determine that
this extremity shall never come. Let I'll
all, brothers and fathers, determine thai
sooner than that shall come we will all pc
rish, and blot out the name before such in
effable disgrace shall cover the past glorei
OF our glorious mother, Virginia!
No, good friends and devoted brethren
we shall save Virginia from this over
whelming misfortune and lift her up tri
umphant above plot and treason and treach
erous combination, and, more than all
above the ingenious alliance OF bsrbarisn
and vice to overthrow the iairest and most
just Political fabric that ever administered
law and cultivated virtue amongst men. -
