" ' In the Virginia CohserVative State Convention Thursday night, the Chair called for thei -report from the Com mittee on Business, and Mr. Barbour, of Cnlpeper, Chairman of; that jCom mittee, came to the ' stand, '.and, -read the following as the report, which was unanimously adopted: tfc i i st I I We, the representatives of, the Con servatives assembled, do declare: 1. That a contrast of the condition of Virginia under Conservative gov eminent with the condition of those Southern States ' jrhich '4 have " been under Radical rule' illustrates the wis dom of the people of Virginia in the adoption of- this plan of State policy, and demonstrates the "necessity of continuing the powers of the State government, in, the, control-of the Conservative people o this Common wealth. . ' 2. That the chief, purpose of the Conservative party of Virginia is to secure to every citizen of the Com monwealth, whether native or adopt ed, of the white for ;f the colored race, exact and impartial justice, and to promote by wise aiid beneficent legislation the prosperity of our whole j people; '.t ': t' 1 3. That the Conservative party of j virgirua, disclaiming all purposes of I captious hostility to General. Grant, will judge him impartially by ' his of- I ucial action, and will cordially co-op-1 erate iu every measure of his adminis- j tration which may be beneficent in its design and calculated ,to promote the welfare of the people and to cultivate peopk sentiments, of good will between the different sections of. the. Union. " 4. We feeogulze as a' fundamental political truth; that r upon ;theintelli gentse and virtue of its people must rest the prosperity,' power and: per- manence of a State.

' Lib- yi provision ougnt to ; oe continuea for he support and extension of Ithe free schoojs for the white and colored! races respectively. " ; 5. That the interests of a large section of this Union no less than -ose or Virginia demand the speedy enlargement and -completion? of the great James River and .'Kanawba water-line that - should connect the waters of the Ohio with those of the Chesapeake, affording to the teeming population of the West cheap s trans portation of their ; products to tlie poiuU of shipment and marts of trade "J the East. The completion by the government of this great design of jeorge Washington, would be an ad- -'"uuai Dond of union between the communities whose products and ik in i ry (VOL.

Oii motion of Mr.' Riley, the Con yention proceeded, to consider the resolutions seriatim. v; General Early id" he ', could, not give his sanction to the last resolu tion.

The IteareB Working. I The Baltimore Gazette, leading journal of the country, says: Kot only here in Maryland, but all over the country, there is a growing distrust ofmenwho make a business of. politicsUand a growing determina- tion to put them downrand to keep them down, ihe protests against ring rule, and the manifold corrupt prac- tices that degrade American politics, by subordinating party principles to the 'selfish' ends of mere politicians, who trade on the credulity or cupidi ty of the great mass of voters, are ev erywhere becoming stronger, sterner, and more vehement. " And those pro tests must be satisfied. The old at tachment to party organizations is gradually loosening. - The old appeals . . , - a.1 J.U i to party allegiance are iueetnig wiiu I a tardier and more reluctant response. The old spirit of personal indepen- dence is asserting itself.
