Our Position. In revolutionary times like these, it Be comea us to say but little, and to say that little plainly. And as a skillful General, in taking his position, must consider thesur- positions which may be taken against him, so do we. first, then, we deny in to-to the- right ot a State to secede from the Union: and a a State may revolutionize as well as the whole of it. .Consequently there is no more reason for\he West to lollow tjie Last into revolution than there is for the Last to follow the example of the West in her loyalty. We are equals, and because Eastern Virginia : chooses to i commit treason, it is no reason why Wes tern Yirginiashould do the same. ' A re nunciation of allegiance to the General Government while occupying territory over which its jurisdiction extends is trea son j because its authority cannot be sub verted except by force, or the overt act of war; and treason cannot be legalized!by the numbers of traitors. The hue mid cry that we must be Virginians, and that as Virginia goes so must we go, is but another trick, got up to order for the pur pose of hitching .Virginia to a Southern Confederacy. Wo ask, in all candor, who has a better right to the honor (if honor it now be) of the title “ Virginians,’' than those of her sons who are loyal to all their constitutional obligations? We are citi zens of Virginia, and owe allegiance to \the State Government, so far as its au thority is exercised in accordance with the Constitution of the United States; and we are at the same time citizens of the United States, and owe allegiance to the General Government so far as its au thority is constitutionally exercised. A secession ordinance is extra constitutional, and. consequently void. We who.remain loyal to both are still Virginians; while those who prove false to either, 1 forfeit both their security and their Honor. Second. The Virginia Convention does not possess any sovereignity in re spect to the powers constitutionally he- Jongtog to the Federal Government; be- [independent in bvertthivo.] ALTOONA, PA., THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1861. cause that portion of sovereignity has been ■surrendered and cannot be resumed but by an amendment of the Constitution i berefore, 80 ar 33 secefis > on »s concerned, the Convention is to all intents and pur purposes, a revolutionary body, and con sequently cannot bind those who choose not to be bound by it. Third. We have said thafwe do not beheve the state of Virginia can pass through this crisis undivided, as to this act of secession. We still say so. And why ? Simply because we arc sure the -Hast intends to revolutionize. Then we say to the West, let, her stand fast in her moorings; and then if any one is disloyal to the State, it will be those who attempt to tear down her flag, which is the “ Star bpangled Banner"— the flag of our com mon country It matters nothing that the Capitol of the State is in the hands of rebels, or that the State officers have left , us ; maintain our integrity, and let the loyal citizens of the State sustain our State authorities in all their Constitu tional functions, and the Eederal Govern ment in all theirs; standing true to the fatato and true to the Union. Our opponents cry, “Peace! eacc; Oh, Peace! Heavens sweetest boon to man ! The song the angels sung ! J-ct us be united, that no civil strife may occur among ourselves." But when we inquire of them on what terms we to have peace, the only reply is, on the terms of an unconditional surrender of all our rights of equality and sovereignitv, in cluding the privilege of an open an candid expression of our opinions; for we are al ready threatened with gag Jaw. We arc sometimes called submissionist, but the slave who will tamely submit to such usuf patiou, wrong and outrage as this, is made 01 mote pliable materials than those which enter into our composition. And if these are the terms on which peace is to be pre served, we accept the issue, and in the language of the immortal Henry, we ap peal to Western Virginians; “is.lileso dear, or peace so sweet, as to bo purchased at the cost of chains and slavery We are for peace, but not to the sacrifice of every interest of our section, and every bCart ° f ° frCe ' '3 our position.

One of the most thrilling reminiscehses m the American Revolution is related of General Peter Muhlenburg, whose ashes repose in the burying ground of" The Old Irappe Church," in Montgomery county, Virginia. When the War broke out, Muhlenburg was rector of a Protes tant; Episcopal Church in Dunmore coun v y i r- ,nia - a Sunday mornin'* he administered the cqmmumon of the Lord’s Supper to his charge, stating that in the afternoon ot that day ho would preach a sermon on "The duties men owe to their country. At the appointed time the building was crowded with anxious listen ers. Iho discourse, if we remember cor rectly, was founded on a text from Solo mon There is a time for every purpose and for every work." The sermon burn ed with patriotic fire; every sentence and intonation told the speaker’s deep earnesl ness in what he was saying. Pausin'* a moment at the close of his discourse,°ha repeated the words of his text, and then, in tones of thunder, exclaimed : " The time to preach is past; the time to eight and ,. suiting the action to tbc word, he throw irom his shoulders his episcopal robes and stood before his con gregalion-in military uniform.

" ■ - ■ ’ The soldier hesitated a moment, .and finally racing one of his feet, exhibited a boot with a hole in tjie toe, and generally worse for wear. ■ “ How came you here with such boots as those, my friend,” asked the patriotic citizen. “ When the order came for me to join my company, sir,” replied the soldier, “ I was ploughing in.the same field at Con cord where my grandfather was ploughing when the British fired on the .jjlassachu setts men at Lexington. He did not wait a moment; and I did not sir.” It is unnecessary to add that the soldier Tras immediately supplied with an excel lent pair of boots.—A'. Y.
