Not So.

We think we can take the liberty Of saying
to the New York Herald and the Cincinnati
Commercial. Gazette, which for no good rea-
son favor the changing the name Of the
State of West Virginia TO kanawha. that
they will not live 10 see that change made.
When Virginia changes her name TO Appa-
hchia West Virginia will adopt new name,
but not till then. As we'll expect Mrs. Gene
ralGRANT or Mrs. SToSEwALL JACKSON TO sur
render the name Of her illustrious dead bus
band as 10 expect West Virginia TO disown

her with the Old Dominion sud all our gle.
rious history. There mo danger that West
Virginia will ever seriously consider the
proposition under consideration. The editor
Of the Wheeling lntelligencer is not native
Of West Virginia, nor OF Virginia. nor of any
southern State, and, like the Virginia ne
groes, seems TO be wanting In State PRIDE.
lie speaks for no true West YirgInian when
he proposes TO change the name OF bis
adopted State.
The Wheeling Register very appropriately
suggests that II Was probably in acknow-
ledgment OF the remarkable ability OF the
Republican court Of Kanawba, as evidenced
BY Its recent decisions, that the Intelhgen-
Ger desired 10 exchange the name West
Virginia Tor the name Kanawha. The Re-
giser adds:
"A quarter Of century ago II was pro-
posed to christen the war-born State Kama
whA.' But sos-ehow or other tue old name
OF Virginia was dear. aud II was retained
with the addition OF West We do not
intend TO change Il st this late dsy. IN we

Last Friday the Corporation Court OF
Alexandra decided that all the Virginia eou-
pons that had been rendered for State taxes
In thst city. amounting to nearly $4,000, were
genuine, and would, therefore, have TO be sc-
cepted by the tax.collector. Whereupon the
Gazette says:
"If an extra session Of The Legislature
could result IN an honorable settlement OF the
states debt tor the sake Of the State sud all
her people, but especially for that OF her poor
people, let It be called asspeedily as possible
But not otherwise"
So say we. II IL a shameful condition OF
