Another authority declares that "the in¬ fallible evidence of the existence of a city as contradistinguished from the village or mere country tosvn ls that the constabulary or police authorities are more mindful of thu reputation tiny univ make by a vigor¬ ous nnd faithful execution of thc ordi¬ nances than iilitrincd l>v fear that in doing their duty liny may offend this, that, or the other magnate."

The senator passel upon the appointment of many of tin-e officer*-, and may pass upon thc question of their n appointment or re¬ moval.

fired the hearts ol the Revolutionary lathers

and moved tis to Like up arms tn 1M61 sur-

yin* ls the breasts of Virginians, they willresolve this -Baaj to throw off the yoke and

tyranny ot Mabonk. Next year it will notbe easier, hut more dittleulL To thinkthat this State should be tor all politicaland governmental purposes the pro|>ertyOl that man; to think that tbe Legislatureean !>*.<« no bill, elect no Judge or other of¬ficer, and appoint no clerk without lils i>er-mlsslon; that the President will eommi*-slon no |K>«tmastcr, appoint no postal clerkor revenue officer, or allow no man fromthis State to romain in a department nt

Washinilton without his SSaaSaSJjjWshouldrouse the burning Indignation of the j>eo-ple. If, with the posvcr in our hantls Io

correct tills monstrous evil, we lat lin- No¬

vember election go by and risc not to over¬

whelm the tyrant, Chin, indeed, Sjil we

prove unwnrlliy of the liticrty which was

lieqiuatlicd BS.Thf bsSsI between MviioNKand AitTiini

L« mutual Interest. To brcrik it we have

only to show that Mahon*-: cannot controlVirgtnii in Ai-Tiii k"h Interest. lb- willwnnt nolhlng to do with Mahon*: when bsfinds Hint Mahonk has ni'itl.erilie pmvcr to

deliver him Its or six Ke|.ul>li.nii coll¬

en **men nor to secure for him the Stalsvartdelegation from Virginia to thc KattOBllRepublican Convention. If xxc can, there¬

fore, gt\TB Mahonk a exTiaMBgdetest al this

election -ll sst but rout and flt-troy him.as it is quite po.il.le for us tu do.wc xviiisunder the bSSld "jBtBfBSB Un and Aktihtiand oi>en the way to our recovery of thcSLite government.

If the whites ot thia Stab- do truly feelthe galling effects of this political slaverythey will soon have the opporl unity to lib¬erate themselves. Neither the Federal of¬fices that yet remain to be disposed of, nor

the campaign fund so much talked aboutand the bJsb of which ls so purposely exas¬perated, nor thc prospect of alliance withs party which has ever been the relentlessenemy of the South, svill compensate u-
