Pleasant Reflection.

There was no occurrence on election day to
mar the pacific feeling which inaugurated the
days work and promiseda smooth and friendly
contest. 1t seemed to be the ambition of each
political party to show fairness and justice,
and to respect the rights and privileges of all
classes. There was a little sharp practice on
Monday evening" by which several colored men
were won over TO the service of the Democrats
and the influence thus exerted was slightly
felt. Upon the maxim that everything is fair
in war, this might be tolerated. But it is a
species of endeavor that we have never appro-
we'd or tolerated, and with the conviction that
it was wrong, we suited our action and advice
to the rejection of every proposition that look
ed to the use of improper means to control
votes.
1t afforded us pleasure to notice the general
ly unexceptlonable conduct ofour political OPP
ponents, and to testify to the fairness of the re-
suit. We refer to the manly and honorable
conduct of Capt. James Bumgardner, Chair
man of the Democratic County Committee and
Commonwealth Attorney with especial graft
fcation. While we could have expected moth
ing less from him, from our knowledge and
estimate of his character, it is a pleasing re-
Election that in the heat of frey and excit-
ing contest, party was forgotten in the prompt
ings OF right and justice, and that to his po-
litical opponents the rule of right which gov
erns his private life, was applied with scru-
pulous exactness. Such men deserve and will
receive the commentator of political friend
and foe alike, for they constitute the salt ofthe
earth, and dignity and ennoble humanity

The editor of the BOersen Courier, Ber-
lin, has been sentenced to eighteen months
Imprisonment for imputing unworthy mo-
tiyes and actions to the Minister of Works
and the editor of an anti-Senate journal,
and intimatiDg that Prince Bismarck. as the
private owner of Warren, used his public
position to circumvent and crush a liz igant
peasant population. What gives spec al
interest to the case, and has caused no little
sensation, is that the Court. departing from
its usual practice, decreed the immediate
arrest of the accused, on the ground that
there was strong manifestation that he med
itated fight.

The Washington correspondent of the AL
eXandria Gazette of Saturday has the follow

The Washington correspondent of the AL
exandria Gazette of Saturday has the follow
ing:
In the bureau of captured and abandoned
property there are 100000 900 of Confederate
bonds, 100000 of Confederate Treasury
notes, Cancelled by subsequent issues, and an
indefinite number of Treasury certificates.
The Treasury officials are disposed to believe
that there are no funds abroad with which to
pay any of these, from the fact that the cor
respondence of the foreign agents of the Con-
tederate government, which were also cap
tured, shows that those agents were continu-
ally calling for money which would not have
been the case if there were funds upon which
to draw outside the limits of the Confederacy.
The Secretary of the Treasury has refused to
allow the Confederate bonds in his possession
to be sold during the existing demand for
them, and many are disposed to censure him
for not avaling himself of the opportunity of
disposing of otherwise worthless paper upon
the advantageous terms now offered. To many
a poor man in the South the sudden and I'M
accountable acquisition of value by such bonds
has been veritable God-send. One gentle
man i'll Fauquier county, Va, who had 50,-
600, which was made glad one day by selling
them at seven dollars thousand, but was
made sorry the next day by hearing that if he
had only waited he could have gotten ten.

The Result.

The indications are that the Coalition
ticket has carried the State by from ten to
twenty thousand majority and majority OF
25 in the Legislature-thus giving the
entire control of the State into their hands.
1t is the close of one of the most bitter and
exciting contests ever waged in this State,
but it is to be hoped now that the sharp
conflicts have passed, any unpleasant feel
ings arising out of them, will pass away
with the cessation Of the strife. 1t is one
of popular elections, that in the heat and
excitement of the antagonists of parties,
individuals lose their balance and allow
their feelings to subordinate their iudg-
ment, and indulge in per sonal ascerbities
which leave unpleasant remembrances. But
with rational men these things are soon
forgotten. and the return to business ayo-
cations and indictments soon alb sorb atten-
ton and obliterate such abnormal inf1u-
ences. Let US hope that in the present in
stance it will be as it has been in the past,
and that all will cAlmly accept the result,
and patiently await official acts affecting
State interests rather than indulge in
harsh pre-judgment. we have never
thought that any party could be formed
out of the people of State, which would
not, in its best Judgment consult the pub
lie welfare, and direct its efforts to the Sc
curement of the public veal. When We
consider the record the Re-adj listers have
made since they were advanced to power III
the legislative body, and the studied policy
adopted and pursued to ameliorate the con-
diton of the people, economic in the adj
ministration of government. and apply the
probe to all wrong-doing. we may safely as.
sumo that the future administration of pub
lie affairs will be of like character, and
the extravagaut apprehensions expressed
by the leaders of the opposition. for the pur
pose of'influencing public favor as the result
Of that partizan ms anity which recog
nizes no merit in those who oppose, and NJ
virtue, except what is distilled from thei
own intense selfishness, give way to more
sensible and catholic reflections.
Apart from the legislative reforms which
may be instituted under the new regime
there is an importance attached to the re
suit we are contemplating affecting thu
future of parties in Virg mia and thu
South, which will not escape the considera
ton of the country. 1t introduces liberia
methods and ideas, looking to the abate
ment of the obstructive and repressiv,
agenci es which have been applied to sup
press or pervert the popular will, and maxi
mockery of the laws and constitution o
the country. 1t matters not by what part,
name this result has been consummated.-
The principles involved constitute the mer
it of the success, and it is to the operation
of these principles, grounded in the funda
mental structure of our institutions, tina
the fruitions of this new departure in tn
politics of the South must be traced. w
have bright and propitious hopes of the fin
ture. and confidently await the more assur
ing facts which may attend the admnistra
ton, both legislative and executive, whic
will be youchsafed to the people of Virginia
