RICHMOND, /9, 1865 Mk Dear Sir: You have beep good enough to lek me, as ad Incident of a very 'kindly personal acquaintance, that I would state to you candidly my views of the temper of the people of Virginia; on the subject of her return to the Union since the loss of the Confederate cautia. I gave had as you know, peculiar opportunities of making My self sequatnted with the popular sentiment of iny native' State I. am not loasely or lightly informed in the matter; age candid etatemeat ell the subject, of your inquiry may avail something as well for my own people as for the country at large, I have taken the liberty of reflecting in writing what I have every reason to believe is the intelligent °pinkie of the people of Virginia, with reference to the reestablishment of the Federal authority and the reconstruction of their political system. It is trim that the fortune, of the Confed erate arms have been overthrown, but the Hiniheirotgionu /30-1 - not yet ended. It remains now for Virgin" ians,to look after the interests of Virginia, and to lay the foundation of a party in the severe and exclusive issues of the honor and welfare of their State, which shall represent whatever conservative dement there is in the times, and which shall endeavor to place Virginia in the Union by deliberate methods and on terms of hon Cr. It is not necessary, 'or do I believe it is asked oftny countrymen, to make vile affec tatioas in this time of their misfortune ; to profess a sudden love of what is Northern; to speak with derision of a cause that has been lost, and to imply in such base after thoughts that for four years they have ac ted the part of liars and hypocrites is the cause to which they so long ascribed their allegiance and a dovotiett. the people of Virysiaikunderstand that it is necessary i.e accommodate titmice - aim to circumstances'; but they are disposed to tlo so,with the dig nity of misfortune and doe behavior of men who feel that they have yet to preserve thelr, self-respect, and that all , is not lost' when something fof the historical honor of Virginia is yet in a position to be saved. The want of intelligszat Virginians, just new, id a Virginian party—one that will not go out of the severe discussion of its needs and interests to associate itself with strange parties, and to affect the tone of Northern journals; one that, ' recognizi4 the failure of the Confederate cause, may yet attempt to place Virginia in circumstances of honor no less than advantage, and to preserve, above all things, the glorious historical name which is not only her illustrious and venerable title to the regards of the world, but the familiar ornament of each of bor citizens. It is for those who think nobly and well to remember that the glory.of his tory is indifferent to events : it. is simply Honor. It is, perhaps, impassible to enumerate fully those terms on which the people of Virginia are disposed to accept the now ia dispensible necessity of a Mara to the Union. But there aro already ladiosted some oondidons of such action, which are plain suggestions of her homer Ind interest, and which are already laying the foundation eta healthy and conservative discussion of a step of so much importance and delicacy.

The oath of allegiance accomplishes no thing; it has proved a failure wherever it has been tried as a Union measure.; It has bean abused as g refuge and protection few the vilest men; it is essentially odious In our people; it gives rise to heart burnings and recriminations ; Iris regardged as the ceremony of a vanquished people; it woulld be an occasion of (limp and poignant mortilin to our pep*, it would really convert as man's opinion, and end in de moralising the publlo conscience.* the repeal of confiscations. arthese terms—which are already repor ted not inomutistent with the views of the Washington Administriti . on—l firmly be lieve that Virginia will readily return into the Linton. as of hor own amine; and with some dilinity, and without that hesitation mid reinstitute which would be the result of any unwise application of force or harsh dictation tif authority.
