THE CITY PRIMARY.

We assume that those gentlemen lit
they were Democrats) who opposed the
Primary on Tuesday last and warned Dem
ocrats by hand bills to ''steer clear OF it, :"
on the ground that it was gag law, were
conscientious in what they said and did.
When man takes position in politics or
anything else on wrong view, we pre-
sumo that he only needs to he enllghten-
ed, to have the independence of a man and
acknowledge he was wrong, and retrace
his steps. We propose to submit the his
tory of the Primary and the subsequent
acts of the City Committee under it, to
those gentlemen for their inspection and
information.
On the 28th Of April lumber Of the old
City Conservative Democratic Committee,
feeling that their choice by the people was
Of too old date to justify them in assum-
ing to express their views, called a meet
ing of Conservative Democrats at the
Opera House on the night Of May Sd, to
say what should be done by the party. That
meeting was the largest Of that character
ever held in Staunton. It was presided
over by the representative of the young
Democra cy,' H. st. e. Tucker. There
were nearly three hundred voters present.
That meeting appointed committee
to 60 out and bring in names for City

U. S. SENATE CHAMBER,

Dear Mojor.-I have not had an earlier
moment when I could reply to your letter.
Briefly, the matter is this. 1 was not
in the Senate at any time, during the pro-
ceedings on the so-called Tebbs case. until
the morning when the resolution propos-
ing to refer the bill, and all the amend :
ments which had been offered, to the Ju-
dietary Committee, was called in regular
order.
Without word of debate the vote was
taken. voted for the resolution. l had
meanwhile run my eye over the proceed
ings, as they are given in the Record, and
thought then, as do now believe, that
understood the merits of the question.
voted without hesitation, and am now
the more assured of the correctness and
the wisdom of that vote.
T he reference was strictly the legislative
hing dc; it was the thing to do to ar
rest a farther ill-tempered line of discus
sion which had been unhappily provoked.
Yuu will observe that the original pro-
Tebbs of the disability imposed by a GER
tain statute of the United States. l am
quite sure there would Lot hare been a
word of objection to this distinct PROPOSE
tion. Uniformly, believe, all and singu-
lar, the applications heretofore made for
such relief have been granted. even in
times when there fingered prejudices Of
the war as to individuals and section.
This simple proposition, however, was
made the occasion for a bill repeating a
statute, practically dead, in the form of an
amendm emit to the Tebbs Bill. 1t was the
absolute conversion of an individual bill
of relief into one repeating statute, No
one on the Military Committeeman
Republican Senator. it appears. objected.
In this form the bill came up for consid-
