isdom and energy. We feel sure that a Virginia Legislature will prove true to Virginia and to the South. It will be true to Southern sentiment and Southern policy, and, in any event, come what will, it will be averse to breaking up those ties which bind us to the Southern States. We are the same people; one in interest, one in institutions, one in blood, and, therefore, the language of one to the other may well be that of Ruth to Naomi, "Where thou goest I will go; where thou diest I will die; thy God shall be my God, and thy people my people." It is largely calculated upon by the Tribune school of politicians that Western Virginia will prove unfaithful to the State at this juncture. Such an allegation is a libel upon a gallant and loyal race. There is upon all questions which concern the honor and dignity of Virginia, no East, no West. Let us hope that the only rivalry between them will be which shall do most and talk least in this decisive hour of action — not of speech.
