Tlio following extract from the
Staunton (Virginia) Vindicator will
show how the people of Virginia view
the restoration bill of Congress which
wc publish in another place to-day:
"Tacked on to this bill is a proviso
for the ratification of tho filleenth
amendment, as a necessary precedent
to restoration. JLhcrc i great fear
among Hadicals that this amendment
will fail to be ratified and henco the
. jm m
proviso coercing its ratification b
Virginia, Texas and Mississippi.
enough States ratify it, not counting
Virginia, lexas and Mississippi, Con
gress will tako its time about admit
ting these, no matter what wc do, but
if the ratification by these States is
needed to engraft the 15th amendment
on the Constitution then they will ad
mit them. V c know not what others
may think or desire, but for ourselves,
wo never iikea to play tho part ot a
cat's paw to pull hot chestnuts out of
the lire lor any one, and in tins in
stance wo would leave them to pull
them out as best thev may. We have
no very strong predilections for resto
ration, on the terms proposed from
time to lime; and with this last pro
viso wc would have none of it. We
would prefer a military governor for
all time to come, rather than tako ;
hand in sowing the seed of an irrcv
ocablc mongrelism in this country.-
We arc not of thosc who believe that
tho mongrelism forced on the South
now is irrevocable, and hence, in re
gard to restoration, with the ratifica
tion of the 15th amendment as an act
precedent, we would advise all, in the
classic languago of Beast Butler, "to
ice in suue."
