Bourbon County (Kansas, United States) (search for this): article 1
such a majority as was never before given in Virginia for any man or measure. The vote in the East, the Valley, the Southwest and the Central West will be nearly unanimous. There will be no contest except in the Northwest, and even in this section there will be a majority for the ordinance outside of the Pan Handle. We have already sufficient information to justify the expectation of decided majorities in favor of the ordinance in the counties of Wetzel, Tyler, Pleasants, Hitchie, Lewis, Bourbon and Marion. In Wood, Taylor and Monongahela, it is believed that the majorities will be the other way.--From the other counties of the Northwest, outside of the Pan Handle, our information is not yet sufficient to determine with confidence to which side the majorities will incline; but in all of them many votes will be cast for the ordinance.

The Capitol Buildings, &c. Alluding to the present condition of the Federal Capitol, a writer says: Its costly and elaborately finished apartments were already so greatly defaced and abused that the arrival of a Southern army for its destruction will be scarcely necessary.

Along the line of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad we learn that the Western counties of Jefferson, Berkeley, Morgan and Hampshire are not only for secession, but are supplying volunteers to the State with great enthusiasm. In view of the certainty that the Ordinance of Secession will be ratified, some persons in the Pan Handle are beginning to organize a rebellion against the State. Citizens of more wisdom and loyalty will rather infer that a different course will become the people of the Pan Handle.
