The followilog letter from ex-Governor Wells, of Virginia, was laid before the Reconstruction Committee to day: Richmond, I`u., December 10, 1809. Col. R. A. Hughes-1V Deer Bit : I had hoped that there would be at the open. log of Congress, no division of sentiment In Wanttlogton, on the subject of the Ito mediate restoration of Virginia, and am surprised at what oecorred before the Reconatructloo Committee, yesterday. We have arrived, It aroma to me, at a stage In the work of reconstruction where It la utterly Idle to attempt the correction of any evil whit% may exist here by a longer dental of Federal repre sentation to the Stain. No Ittneervative nor Democrat will be mole a Republican: no bitterness assuaged, nor any epirlt of amnesty encouraged, nor oblivion of the past be secured by either an exclusion of the State or individuale from many of the rights; which belong to thamost favor ed of other Stater or eitlmns. Whether such desirable recall? are ever likely to be secured byttratoathe and disfranchise. manta or not, it is certain they can have no operation from this time forward. If we are ever to secure prosperity in our national Interest, harmony In our social relations, or justice and ...path) in our political rights and privileges, it mutt be done by such a universal act of notable amnesty, and deprive every man of the ventage of such power ?err inflicting M imi:Jos upon others, and retaliation for wrongs or political W.W.l'S°a offered by Mrnaff. One may doubt the Rene. or even belief that such a measure of liberality will fall of any results: still it Is the only ratosenow left, and wise men ought not to hesitate ■tout making the trial. It should An done In no un gracious spirit, but friendly and freely, with the broadest generality. It is idle to find fault with or cavil at [bemoans or way by which we have been brought to this condition. It Is entirely immate rial how [he Republic in party was de. featedi nor shall we be likely to contem plate its overthrow more graciously by longer Indulging In animosity, bitter -12210, or recrimination. 1 certainly hope Virginia may bo restored before the week ends without a single dissenting vote, and that before the llorietnass holi days, by one tingle act of amnesty, the disabilities of every culsim of this Com monwealth may be removed. The .polioy of selecting here and there indi. eldest* fur railer not became of their superior claims tint rather on ac count of the friends they have at court, or the diligence with which they move their snit, Is plainly unwise, and mania featly unities. It tends largely to awry, vatal the Irritation already exist fog. The two hundred man whose dlaauilittm are In this way removed, are not thereby rendered any more friends of the Gov. ernment than they were beton', while all where unrelieved, find In this last act of unjust Congressional discrimination • ' new cause of more substantial nom plaint, &alike and bitterness. II is' useless' longer to rely on half measures. Sever the knee by one blow. if this pol icy does pot eumued. then t o other can afford any hope of s better result.

Yeur petitioner most earnestly asserts that he is innocent of the crime of which he Wands convicted; that within thirty days after sentence be applied to be allowed a writ of error to the Supreme Court, so that he might have reviewed by that honorable Court manifold errors which he alleges exist in the record of the court below; that said application wee refused, I but in making said application he had no hearing by his counsel, either written, printed, or oral. In assigning the errors be had not the means to print the record, and by a rule of court enlorced in Cumberland county his counsel could not take the record out for any purpose, Ile was therefore ob liged to resort to a printed pamphlet which had been printed for general cir culation, and which did not contain the evidence as fully as it shoulftave done. Through this he could not "explain the errors he specially complains of, and which he is satisfied were not and could not be under,tond by the Supreme Court without an oral or printed explanation. As your peoUtioner'slifelainvolved, he prays that he shall not die without at least hearing. He therefore petition' for a review of his application, and for a hear ing In regard to the errors assigned.
