t.VXCHUIM(» DEC. 3, 1825).
QJT Mr. Giles’s Speech, before tlie Knee- ,
ntive Co nmitfer, hi the commencement of the
session of the Convention, ha. been received in
other Spates with merited tlitapprobation — j
Following the example of too many politician*
of the Old Dominion, Mr. Giles exaggerated ,
her claims to eminence »ver her sisiei State*,
in the superior uioraliQr, the more orderly de
portment, an.l the greater comparative etemp*
lion from vir» atvl crime of her native rilixens. j
It .Vi . Giles, or any other man, does indeed en- I
w rtain a ladief that the people of Virginia are
mo* e pure an I uptight than their neighbors, II
is doub'le** a pleasant delusion : and, for our
own par's, he might remain in thu undisturbed
enjoyment o! it, did lie not proceed to deduce
from th- assumption, the erroneous and fatal
inference that it proreeds from the peculiar or
gnitiratioti of our Stale government—and more
, particularly from the infrequency of popular
elections, and the rextr cl ions ou the right of
sn(T aga Whan u)> can bring ourseltex to cn
lei'am such a belief, we -hall he willing to dis
pens* with off tdeciio n whatsoever, a* we shall
prefer fc be governed by hereditary oilier fg.
j leg s'itti*", executive, judicial aip| inlniMetihl.
l'.ir, by carrying o il the | tinci.de lo this full
. extent, rn mkiodtbuld nut fail, if Mr. Giles's
I assumption lie true, *0 Mi -h tile very acme ol
uncial p-rfecliofl—Guv. Giles attempted in sus.
lain hi* pi' nioii by proofs ; and his principal
evidence c-'misted ol the records nl our Pent
, len'iary. compared with those uf similar in at ■
! lotions in oilier Status. *• lie knew” vhn said)
j “ no moHe of ascertaining the moral condition
of nations fiuf one, and that was through the
assistance of llio Penitentiary system. The
I’'inlcntisry of Virginia contained 14b convicts
—the Mouses of Correction in New York a.
h im l.i'k)," " The difference was asri jhahle lo
Hie i-ite isi.i i if ihu riglll of suffrage in Netv
York. That, and that only, accifniilcd far Ihe
difference in favor of Virginia."—(in*. Giles,
wlu n he made the absurd declaration that the
citr ision of the rigln of suffrage produced this
immense dispa i:y in the criminal calendars of
Virginia and New York, forgot tivonr three
important considerations,which will inaterial'y
afflict its fairness —In the first place, no per
son can be seal 10 tbe P nittmtinry in this Slate
unless lie lie citiiviclud uf some ci iiuiual act;
and tie Shortest period of confinement in that
inslituliou peri.lined by our Ian s beuig two
veals, a jury wild nut convict, when the offence
is li IvihI, or unless the character of tht offender
he notoriously bad, but upon the clearest and
nos unequivocal evidence— so that, frequent
ly, hi, doubt, p"rsun? escape being sent lo (he
Penitentiary tmea ise the Jory liiok lUe pun
ishm.ml loo severe far toe offence, who leally
deserve some slighter |wmishinenl In New
Yurk. on itie other liaad, vngranti, convicied of
oo crime, bin who contrive to i ve wnhout visi
ble means, are “furnished with lodgings' in
Ihdir House of Curreclion— and so numerous
it this cfass of prisoners, (*'e are informed by
a Ne w Y.uU paper) that of 493 persons m the
Penitentiary ul'tlidl Stale in January latt, 3i3
were pirgran?*—leading !7o criminals ; — only
3u niore Ilian were in the Peui.'SUtiafy of Vir
ginia at the same period. So that if Hie Peni
tentiary system be the only mode of ascei'ailC
iisg the moral condition of nations, we shall
have nothing lo boast over New York. N 'al ly
half of ilia 493 persons in the N. Y prison, tou,
wer1 fjreigners, llirown into the Cdy of New
York, by the facilities of emigration lo lists I
I polo , completely cleslilule of resnurcer, and
I doubtless apt scholars in a'l Ihe ingenui iss
i pmctiied by the most accoinplished felons of
me mo hern Uabylon airuis Ilia waters.—It is
well known, that, in large cit es, vice and crime
eiisl in a very disproportionate ratio, when
compared with smaller towns and with the
coun'iy at large. New York, from its peculiar
poaition, is the grand resort in this country, of
rogurs and lascala, of all classes,—it is the
London of America—the vast field, which !
sharpers of all descriptions, from the genteel
swindler down to the purloiner of a gill ot wbis
key, select for their multifarious operations.
And therefore, even if Mr. Giles's Ibeory were
eorrect.it would be unfair to retei to that great
emporium of villains as furnishing a fair exem
plification of it. The extension of the right of
suffrage may give to some scoundrels, perhaps
many, who do not now prossess it, the privilege
of voting ; but it may safely be assumed that it
never has created a rascal since (he flood, and
that, in the nature of things, it never can.—We
(liilik that our theory, which is no other than
that furnished by the whole history of man, is
much preferable to that of Guv. G.—to wit, that
all Slates are made up of men of every hue And
shade of character, dl.criminated with surh
nicely of touch as the painter's art may in vein
endeavor to imitate—and that, no matter in
what clone they live, or under whal government
they draw their breath, they have (teen and
will cunlioue to be influenced by the snaie mo
tives, and umveisatly conducted to I lie same re
sults. fu defining the principles of a govern
ment, therefore, we are nut to be led off ftom
a consideration of ilia rights which inherently
belong to man, to indulge in Utopian specula
tions on (lie possibility of making good men
out of bad, by placing restrictions uu (lie exer
cise of ihese rights.
Gov. Giles also referred particularly to the
elections in Alabama, at proof conclusive that
the general (not universal) exercise of the right j
j of suffrage was la be deprecated as the sorest of
I all evils. The papers of that State (albi-ii
! Jacksonian.) are exceedingly indignant at the
I portraiture of their manners drawn hy Mr.
Giles, which they pronouoce an “ infamous li
bel,” and the painter himself" n pitiful retailer
c.f i.if'rliofll end JnlreclionTil! thntfr,
therefore, which Mr. (i. Haiti up, of (lie oil
Consequences of ntrinlrd thifTragr, has brtn
destroy, d, hy the veiy simple pnnels of drino
litiiing the auumption on which it whs erect' d.
And wens,moi nut hope, that he will have the
magnanimity to idmlt that crime to New A’oik
does not piI'llnuiioaie over ci line in Virginia,
in the ratio o( 8 to 1*—that he w.is mistaken in
laying, that at the elections in Alabama there
are •• searcely sober ruler* enough tell on Ilia
ground to record the voles of the dronhen ones"
—ind consequently that the metis inn oi ihe
light id snlTrege will not make a man a drunk
ard who is disposed lobe sober, or convert an
honest man into a thief.
UJ A great change Itas taken plare within
a few years pint in the rapidity of travelling hy
•luges, and in the transmission of the mail, the
advantage! ol which me beginning to he real
ized in tins quarter. Six veer* ig >, the New
York papers reached us ahuot ilie eighth or
ninth liny after their piihliealinn : we now re
ceive llient in four days. From It Itulinre and
Washington we gel papers m two days, instead
of five, an i fr.ni Hiclunond is, two, instead of
three days, as was formerly the case. Sis
years ago, the stage between llichininid and'
Lynchburg rolled heavily through, frequently
reaching the terminating point nut until almtii
midnight uf the tbiiddav—Now, it reaches
the same point at nlmul -I o'clock, P. M. ol ilie
sec >nd day. Il will he recollected how tireitu- \
ouxly I his cliHiige was opposed hy some uf •* our
good cousms ol Buckingham,"—go sirenuua.v,

New York in lour ' Such things would not have
been dreamt uf as possible six yeurs ago—and
we iimy thank the lain Postmaster General
McLean for il, It was lie who infused energy
throughout the whole Depart mini ; and by ex
citing a spirit of rivalry and emulation Hiiiimg
the tribe nf Jehu, made the wlupi crack and
the wheels roll with d mhlc *p> od. A* poor
Sain Palch was wont to say, he taught Hie con
tractors Ihel “ some things can hr done as well
as others." And we suspecl none maid lie
fnunij better calculated to second such energy,
any where, than the contractors on the Ktch*
inond amt Charlottesville runlet.—IVe shall not
conjecture how it will he six years hence, lest
an i input ion may not come up to Hi • rent, tv, as
it certainly would not have done if wn had pro
phesied si 1 years ago. We shall nut be sur
prised, if ih« mail via Churloliesvilla should
then reach us daily.
QJ’ The General Court, now silling in Itich
mond, have overruled the application of John
M. Jones, convicted uf the murder of Hamilton
at the last term uf our Supcnoi Court, for a
new trial. The sentence ol the law will of
course he pronounced on the unfortunate young
! men at the oeit term uf the Court, which cum
menccs its session on the 3d lues Jay of this

(Jj* Judge William* hat presented ins answer
to the articles of impeachment drawn op
against him. It is a well written document, in
dignantly repelling the chaige*, ether hy fin'
denials, or tiy explanations which take from
them the aspect of criminality. The Court nf

a few days, to afford Hie Managers lime lo re
