WEDNESDAY MORma, OPT. 20,1869
A VIRGINIA SENATOR.
The telegraph informs us that Lieuten
ant-Governor JtrtrN-'Fv-LEwm -and >Tudge
John W. Jipve fc©en eleqtjed by
the General Assembly of Virginia to repre
sent that-indlgested Commonwealth in the
Senate of the United States. Judge John
ston had never been prominently' brought
forward for the office, and so the
pers did not' trouble IfeemselVdS
a sketch of his career. But Lieutenant-
Governor Lewto -was a favorite from -the.
beginning and his record has
ventilated. He is a Virginian by birth and
long descent. His family connections are
among the best in the State. Agriculture
has been an almost constant pursuit with
him, and, until 186 CL he had ngyer dabbbyj
in politics to any extent. *ln‘Ts6o ne $sR
elected from Rockingham county to the
State Convention. 1 'He VMdataunfeondUfoA-'
al Unionist throughout, and refused point
blank to sign the ordinance of secession.
During the war, he still continued to be a
Union man, though how any man of flesh
and soul could have been so passes the
understanding of those whose blood is more
meridian. Notwithstanding tlufse-Union•
sentiments, if such things can be senti
ments, he seems* to have retained'the*-re
spect of those in his neighborhood who dif
fered with him.
Since the war, he' lias had,his rtjwapd.jf
such a task can be a reward for a Virgin
ian of- noble ktock, In recphsthicting the
Old Dominion-. He never, however, affili
ated with the extremists and carpet-bag
gers. At the late election he led his ticket
as a candidate for Lieutenant-Governor by
more than 2,000 votes. He is fifty years of
age, tall and awkward, but hlff manners
are genial and persuasive. We lCai'n that
he is a bright and working member of the
Episcopal Chnrch. This is, to some ex
tent, a misfortune. Since fan
ning on an expediency schedule, she should
have chosen not only an unconditional
Unionist, but likewvse 4 qne of thaMetbejjlis-t
Church of the North. He wilfno doubt
make a very good Senator as times go—if
Will listen to' His knocking, His
unconditional Union knocking, and let
him in. It would seem that no barrier ex
ists, or can exist, to the admission of Vir
ginia and her Senators. But Congress,
like Hamlet, “ knows not seems it is
only paralleled by itself.
Liverpool. —According to a correspond
ent of the New York Times, Americans of
good standing are the only people pretend
ing to decency in Liverpool who blasheme
and expectorate tobacco juice. To protect
public resorts as much as possible from
Americans, Liverpool abounds in spittoons,
and is the onlyHoWn this Circumstanced
in all England.
Liverpool owes Its origin to th'e “almighty
nigger.” Her first start in grandeur was
by the slave trade. Liverpool has doubled
her trade every sixteen years for the past
century, and, if the Times correspondent
speaks correctly, all th* *qrpaßfijngjfk>rie§
of this imperial port may be attributed
to Sambo and the South.
The Spanish Throne. —The possible
King of Spain, the Duke of Genoa, is 15
years of age. Victor Emmanuel is his
uncle, and the daughter of the King of Sax
ony his mo theft --Hes iS : very delicat <j/antf :
very timid. For & tithe, he was in an artil-
* life. He is now at school

The Road to Fortune. —The suburb
Pantin, where the unparalleled iuiM’ilei*iwas
committed by Traupmann, has been a
great resort for the Parisians. Beggars,
organ-grinders and lemohade-and-cake sell
ers reap a rich harvest. One of-Uie.latter
arrested a customer thus:
if we could only have two or three more
murders like this, I could think I could
see my way to an independent fortune.”
That was dictated by “ French nature,”
which HAZLimsaidiwas motrhuman na
ture but an attribute sui generis.
Satnte Beuve.— This eminent French
man, who died a few days since, was the
most renowned critic in France, and one
of the most Warded’ iteo In Europe! <.He
was for many years a writer for the Pa
risian journals, and an author of great re
pute. His most famous work is entitled
Causeries du Lundi, or “ Monday Conversa
tions”—a series of sketches, biographical
and critical. He was also a member of the
French Academy and a.9enatpc pf to
pi re.
Progress.— ‘-The man who* thunders
loudest in Ffahce against the corruptions
of the Emperor aud his manipulations ot
the ballot is the noted advocate and deputy
Jules Favre. And yet, and yet, letters
of his, recently disinterred, prove that he
was a veritable Gallic Hulbekt, “ sharp
and quick,” in the''year of the “Republic”
1848.
In Doubt. —The New Era says the re
port that 4 Qoj.”, flDijjjߣRT t |as keen apl
pointed ’Sdperfntefiderit of'the Alabama*
and Chattanooga Road may or may not be
correct.
State Road, no doubt.
Hypocritical. —The New York Rjcening
Post, which fs nothing if no (free trade in
its commercial proclivities, politically re
joices over the Radical victory in Pennsyl
vania, which is nothing if not a triumph
based on protection.
A. Royal Stratagem. —lt is now said
the Empress Eugenie was sent to Egypt
to get her out of tbe way, so that, the Em
peror might arrange for the future regency
of Prince Napoleon.

De Profundis.— The students of Har

oarsmen by Oxford, have taken to races in
wash-tubs, instead of wherries.

12:30, p. m. James W. Massie, of Vir
ginia, Chairman of the Committee on Em
igration, submitted a report, which was
adopted after some discussion. The fol
jioivuig is a synopsis of the report:
f 'Tie population of the* whole country
was, according to the first census in 1790,
,very neafly equally dijided
North and the South. According “to* the”
census of 1800. the population of the two
sections was: North, 19,369,182
12,048,149. This shows that, of the emi
grants-and their descendants who had
come into the country during the seventy
years, from 1790 to iB6O, and were then
living 7,321.033 more had settled in the
North than had settled in the Sooth. Ac
cording to estimates made, every foreign
jnyiusgjgant whc|eettlpsjnj.he copotjy ad.ls
the rational vmilnr; Tra if to be
clearly within the limits, your committee
yvilj assume jt (to be SSQO
industrial capital of the North over and
above the South, from immigration alone,
has thus been increased by this enormous
sum. The North has outstripped the South
in the struggle for mineral wealth. The ob
ipft-. nf voiiv committee is to devise means
which may enable the South to participate
in the advantages of immigration. Most,
:if .not .all the. Southern States,, sines the- "
war, have adopted measures for the en
couragement of foreign immigration. These
measures have 'not''been‘'attended 1 with
much success. The emigrating class of
Europe is wholly uninformed with regard
to the Southern States, and is from ig-
and, -in some meaglfre?- -misin
formation, greatly prejudicedjigainstihom..
Ignorance must be ..dispelled* artdvthd;
prejdtfices removed, and the prejudices;
again® the Southern states apply with
equal, fort* tt> all. This obstacle should
bo rep)ovied. An impression prevails that
of the SouQt’is ansuited to the!
while- -n&H. Europe has heard of the
parallel of 36 degrees ahd # Tninates as
a dividing line between and white
labor in America Spain, Italy, Barba rv.
Egypt and Asia Minor, which lie south of
this line, and are within the same parallels
of latitude which include the Southern
Slates' arc 'lnhabited by races having
tanned or black skins. From this it is in
ferred that the climate of the Southern
States is unsuited to the Teuton. So long
as these hurt fill prejudhses/exi^t, 1 the emi
grating stream of Germans, Swedes, Nor
wegians, Britons and Danes will never flow
into the Southern States. The* removal of
these prejudices can best be accomplished
by a united effort. The plan contemplates
State organizations for the encouragement
of immigration. The committee propose
that this convention appoint a General
Agent ofTifunigration; that the States be
requested to appropriate a snmto be placed
in the hands of the general agent, to be
used in preparing, publishing, translating
and circulating gratuitously among the
emigrating classes a report showing the
physical geography of the States adopting
this plan, their individual resources, the
special advantages which they offer the
emigrant, and other necessary information.
In reference to coolie labor, the committee
said the importation of Chinamen and other
Asiatic labor does not require the means
suggested in the report. - What could be
accomplished by separate State and pri
vate organizations? The future may de
velop the necessity of using the means in
Asia now suggested in the report; there

Second. Currency is not a product of a

Third. Currency values of property and
an 'irredeemable curreney regulafc them
selves by each other, so that except tempo
rarily the amount of irredeemable currency
in circulation in no manner regulates the 1
ease of the money market, or influences tilt
rate of interest.
Fourth. An irredeemable currency re
tards {production, <by the fact tlEit it mea
sures the value of property so unsteadily
as to destroy confidence. It prostrates in
dustry, unsettles society, and should be
aud can be banished from the nation’s ex

Resolved, That Congress be requested at
once to enact a free banking law, with effi
cient and certain measures for prompt re
jdumption of.-the. currency, with a provision
that currency is to be issued only as fast as
the legal tender notes are redeemed and
destroyed, until specie payments are re
stored. : ■ v ■'
Second. That Congress direct the Secre
tary of the Treasury to cancel and-destroy
all legal tender notes that come into 'his
possession as fast as the net means of >the
Government will allow ; in case the'Na
tional Bank currency is applied for faster
than it can be furnished under the condi
