The following extracts are from two bust

Allow me, your constant reader, to ex-
press my hearty approval OF your course as
a patriotic, high-toned, ana oui-spokCn Vir-
ginia paper-that always goes for the truth
as il believes il, and for the preservation of
the honor and good faith Of the old Com
mon wealth-that always " calls spade a
spade" rogue rogue, and a demagUgue
demag0gue.
AS to the policy 10 be pursued in the pre-
sent lamentable and dishearteniHg condition
OF state affairs. | entirely concur in the views
expressed by you in your issue Of yesterday
(26th). Whatever may be our home and fam
lily ENTHUSIASTICALLY on the debt ques-
ton, but really only on "the game OF grail"
dove on one side and "lizardn on the
other(-the scramble for and division of the
Offices and revenues OF our poor old no.
ther-at least let the Democratic party Of
Virginia present an unbrOken front TO our
Radical enemies, now 30 gleefully chuckling
over our squabbles. For the Old Dominion
Row to vote for Grant, or " Jim Blaine" or
Sherman, would indeed be driving the last
nail in her political coffin.
Can't we re0rganIze the good old Demo
cratic party. and thus solidiiy in one har-
moniOus whole the now discordant Conser-
yatiye ranksi We can, think, never get
the R,adiusters back by abuse. We can
only do so by words OF love, and recog-
nizing them as our equals in the political
fold. The temperate tone OF the Dispatch
Is right In this matter, as II usually Is. Men
msy be led, but not driven.

The Executive Committee.

The Frederick burg Star says:
awe do not believe that the Executive
Committee OF the Conservative party has
forfeited the confidence or trust OF ConSer-
vdtiues. Those who are not willing to
recognize its authority, why let them rebel.
When the proper time comes we trust the
committee will not hesitate TO issue call
for a convention OF the party to select dele
gates TO the National Democratic Conyen-
ton, and ii there be men who cannot sub
scribe 10 the plan which may be enunciated
for constituting State convention, we say,
also, to such, SECT thee hence In the
coming presidential contest men will be re-
Quired to show their hand. A man must
either he Conservative or Republican in
this fight. Choose We whom We will serve"
The State Executive Committee and the
State Central Committee are not the same.
The Executive Committee, consisting OF
General LOGAN, Mayor KELLEY, and }. II.
DOoLEY, Esq, will hardly assume the re-
sponsiblity OF calling convention. IL will
most likely content itself with calling to-
gether the State Central Committee.
But when the State Central Committee is
called together, VIII the call be so worded
rs to exclude General GRoNER, or any other
man appointed a member OF it by the State
Convention Of 1871? III not excluded by
the terms OF the call, will the Readiuster
members OF the committee respect that call
III they respect it, and attend the meeting
OF the State Central Committee, will mo-
ton be made TO exclude themy IL so, will
II be carriedy
We present these matters for considera-
ton. But four months will intervene be-
tween now and the time for the appoint
ment OF delegates to the Democratic Ma
tioaai Convention. and all these questions
have got TO be decided so long before that
time as 60 allow the people full opportunity
10 send delegates TO Richmond in May.
They eaunoi be avoided or evaded.
The Executive Committee will not go too
far In the way Of conciliat,ry policy.
That much may be safely predicated OF Lo.
GAN, DooLEY, and KELLEY. There Is good
deal of :. IRISH blsod" in that committee,
and we suspect thai 1t is sup" Neyerthe-
lets, they are all men OF so much discre.
ton that we shall expect nothing OF them
that will not commend itself TO the judg-
nlent OF Conservatives generally.

Editors DiSpCtCh have read the above
card in the Dispatch OF the 9th instant
with entire approval, for 1t seems to me
that il is the whole question in Il nutshell.
The Central Committee, now existing, wa
appointed by the last State Convention OF
1877, and is the proper committee to call
another convention OF that party, whose
duty il will be, among other things, to ap-
point neW committees and perfect nelc or
ganiZalion. Now the pressing question
is: Why don't that committee act at
once in this matter? Don't It's mem
bers see that the Readiu,terS, or Mozart
party. are calling and holding meetings all
over The State and periecting their organi-
cation anew? Have they not seen the bold
aud defiant declaration Of the leading organ
Of that faction that they intend 10 control
the politics Of the State independent OF all
other parties, and intend 10 carry their
creed into the neXl congressional and preSl-
dental election? The leaders are not com
ing back TO the Conservative party. nor DO
they intend that the Conservative parry
shall go to them, unless its members 20 as
supplicants and Obedient to their arbitrary
dictatiOn and will.
This being tue manifest situation and as
pect OF things, is not the policy and duty
Of the Conservatives, and all who intend 10
act with them, plainly marked out! Can they
afford to stand still longer, and permit the
enemy to gain another march upon them,
and win recruits from the ranks OF the peO-
pie? DO we not intend 10 send Conserva-
tive delegates TO the Democratic National
Convention, aud do we not intend 10 hold
our State and congressional districts against
the Republicans if we can do soy
Then, let us have convention Of the
best men in the State-Say in May-tO re-
organize the party without any reference to
The State debt or any other local question
All Conservatives or National Democrats
can come into such a convention, whether
they are RCa1iusters or FunderS.
These remarks are respectfully submitted
to the State Central Committee. whose
chairman Senator LOvelD is now in Rich
mOnd, and to the leading members OF our
party there assembled. Longer delay is IA
tai TO our cause. ReadjusterS must be Con-
servatiyes or Republicans. ACTION.

A Member Of the State Central Com
mistec Speaks.

RICHMOND. January 20, 1880.
To the Editors Of the Dispatch:
Permit me to say that | concur fully IN
your editorial OF this morning. (26th), head
ed "A Word to Thoughtful Men," II we
desire to secure the State for the National
Democracy in the next presidential cleo
ton, we must adopt some such course as
that suggested by the Bedford Sentinel 1t
is clear TO my mind that whilst the mem
bers OF "the State Executive Committee
have no right to abdicate, yet in calling a
convention OF the people that committee
should not undertake to lay down any plat
form OF principles, but should simply call
lbe convention, and invite all who pro-
pose to unite in supporting the Democratic
nominee for President to participate in the
primary meetings sending delegates to that
convention.
So soon as the convention meets "the
State Executive Committee " will be ''.tanc-
tbs oficiO."
wilI simply add that, in my Judgment
when that convention meets. 1t should coz
fine all discu sion TO national affairs only.

CENTRAL COMMITTEE"
