MIR. GETTINGER'S RESOLUTION.

We beg leave to differ with Mr..
Gettinger as to the propriety of pas
sing the resolution offered by him in
reference to the so-called Virginia
debt. There is, in truth, no debt OF
any kind that West Virginia is bound
to pay, and no contract Of any kind
to which the State has been a party.
requiring anything in the shape of an
admission or pledge, acknowledging
responsibility, If ANYTHING shall be
found due from West Virginia. Vir-
ginia has repudiated, time and again,
her debt, and has put upon the mar
kets of the world a certificate of in
debtedness against West Virginia,
similar in nature to the uttering and
publishing Of forged paper. 1t should
never be recognized, and the people
who are bowling about holding West
Virginia's certificates, had better 90
to the legislature at Richmond, where
they were issued, instead of trying
to inyeigle the West Virginians, by
resolution, into the parentage of a
bastard monstrosity. The resolution
is published elsewhere. We hope it
will not pass, and then it can never
turn up in the Supreme Court Of the
United States as an admission of
debt, if any be found due.
