Mr. Goode IN Bedford.

Hon. JOHN GooDE, Jr., made speech in
Liberty. Bedford, at the last Circuit-Court
day, which is spoken of by the Liberty Sen
tinei as one of great power. Dir. GooDE
explained the advantage gained by the peo-
pie at the last session Of Congress by the
repeal of obnoxious legislation, by which
we got rid Of packed jaries and armies OF
deputy marshals at elections intimidating
voters. He said that while there were en-
couraging features in national politics, in
Virginia the Conservative party was in
danger, imperilled by party Of agitators,
known sometimes as >Readiusters, again as
Repealers, and again as Regulators. He
gave concise statement Of the benefits OF
the McCULLocH bill, and answered objec-
lions to it. The Sentinel saws the Snnn"i,
was one OF the most eloquent ever heard
there. The Sentinel says:
In conclusion, be spoke of the difficulties
in the way OF repeal, showing that revo-
Iutionary measures would have to be re-
sorted to, our own Court Of Appeals re-
organized for special purpose, and, last OF
all, they would be met by the Supreme
Court OF the United States with its un-
broken line Of decisions; and, instead OF
having taX.collectors OF our own choice,
our State would be overrun by an army of
tax-collectors appointed by the United
States courts. 5..r

nounced 3. JOHNSON BARBOUR, of Orange.
Mr.. BARBOUR, in frank and devoted man

TIE OLD CoMMoNwEALTH.-This is an
excellent newspaper published at Harrison
burg, Rockingham county-one OF the most
Furnishing counties in that magnificent
land, the Valley Of the Shenandoah. There
should prevail the spirit OF independence
and the pride and integrity OF well-to-do
and favored community. But Inc sisns,
we must confess, show that press OF
sound principles and irreproachaole con-
sistency there is in the place where 1t can
do great deal OF good. The Otd Common
,nenlfh is this sort OF a newspaper.
We refer 10 it especially just now TO no.
tice the retirement Of Mr.. 2. Is. DELANEY
from its editorial department. He is a gen.
tleman OF talents and public devotion, with
a fidelity and practical good sense that are
nnincumbered with embarrassing personal
party alliances.
Mr.. K. SMITH, the partner OF Mr.. DE-
1ASEY. will continue the Old Common
aoealth in the line OF public devotion it has
60 faithfully pursued.

MECKLENBURG.-We had the very great
pleasure on Saturday evening OF CONVEX
sation with gentleman from Meckcnburg
who is a true Conservative, and one who
holds in adherence the hetcrodox opinions
and wild ideas which have been dlfuscd so
largely amongst the people OF that county,
OF such fine past history and OF such plea
SAINT aute-war "reminiscences. We remem-
her Meckenburg when she was one OF the
most proud and respected counties OF VIZ
ginia. Her calamities from the war were
great. With that went her property, and
the social revolution that fell upon her sadly
changed her character and her concep-
tions, and she drifted away OUT OF
the happy paths once familiar to
her, and she became not what she
was morally and socially in brighter days.
No man out OF Mecklenburg has sympa-
thized more deeply with her. We knew
her well when WILLIAM o. GooDE was her
eloquent leader and MARK ALEXANDER was
her pattern of patriot and statesman OF
unsullied integrity. In these days there
have been things in Mankienhnrs whi'h
could not fail to grieve the heart of any
man who ever knew and enjoyed amongst
the people and the places Of Mecklenburg
what we have.
But the interview with the worthy Con-
sentative from Mecklenburg which we en-
joyed on Saturday gave us new hope, and
we felt that in short time that good old
county would be herself again-her indie
pendent self-proud and consistent. main
tanning her loyalty to the community and
the State, and rejoicing with her sister
counties over the peace and contentment Of
the Commonwealth, with her reestablished
credit and order

August. 2
The portion OF the above paragraph
which appears in italics was quoted by US
in our paper Of the 10th August. General
MAHoNE's newspaper assumes that the sep-i
arating of the sentence which appears in
italics In the above quotation from the rest
Of the paragraph is unjust to the paper,
and bases some characteristic remarks upon
this assumed injustice. The reader has the
whole paragraph above; and does the OBJ
iectionable sentence lose its offensiyeness
by being included in the mass Of yerbiage ?.
We think not in the least. It is a bad
sentence. Any man who is OF opinion, that
an, act Of positive dishonor by State in re-
pudiating its honest obligations would COM
mendi 1t to men Of means and good people
In this civilized day must be man whose
opinion Is Of no value and whose counsels
are-bad. Such ideas might be tolerated by
persons inclined 10 approve such dishon:

EXactly!

So thoroughly convinced is the Conserva-
tive party that the MCCULLocH bill will en-
able Virginia to meet all the expenses OF the
State and discharge her honest obligations
that every Conservative candidate for the
Legislature is requested to proclaim that IL
elected he will not vote to increase td1eS.
This, it would seem to any fair'mlnaeo
man, is a conclusive argument IN faVor OF
the debt compromise, especially when the
Mozar.ers propose nothing in lieu OF 1t.
