Louisiana went protecting not only these
Slate cotton agents but every home ill
Texas rum the vandalism of a Yankee ar-
my ihe dire -t tendency of things was 10
cause that gallant soldiery lo go barefooted
mid shivering through the canting winter.
The more we look into this thing-llm inore
we are satisfied wiili the conduct of Gov.
ernor Murrah ; still we tire not fnlly satis-
fied with bis course in general though we
approve that part of it which Is said to be
making li i ll j si uiipopiilai. We could bavo
wished In see our young and talented Co.'-
eruiir a little more entluiiasiie in his sup-
pirt of t lies Government. We thought his
in -ssaire a linle too cool wherein lie nn-
liouuees he lul l "no comment" to make rel-
ative lo the action of ('tingie-d on llie 'cur-
rency question. Woollier! tosliclis'oieism

gress was either In be approved cordially
if right or ni-oitipily con lenincd if wrong.
Notwithstanding Ibis is our feeling we nro
bv no menus dispose.' lo give up Giivefnnr
Murrah; he is young and we I rust capable
of learning by cviterience. And if be pur-
sues henceforward a straight and independ-
ent course regardless of the croakin-:s of

that he will be snslai I bv thcpeople and

A great dcai indeed almost everything de-
pends on the mililiiry opel-Jlions uf the
next two innuihs; and this happily enough
is fully appri ciated by the people mid the
iiiiny iif Virginia. We nil feel that peace
is entiling in what way we know not h a
it is coining and its arrival is to he hust-eii'-d
