The course of Walker, elect. ed as Republicin, but whose sympathies appear to be altogether with the, political enemies of those who elected iftt,' has proven that unanimity of interest and action can alone prevent the destruction of the Republican party -of Virginia. Per— sonal' feeling bas been the tree cause of much of this trouble, and one of . the best of the results of this coCreneei has been to bring together th ough ndly consultation leaders who, same party, have been estranged for many months past. The election of Judge Al— exander Rives as chairman of the con• ference was an act tending to harmonies the conflicting elements, and his opening speech in favor of the unification of the party .1n Virginia exerted an excellent influence over all the members in the subsequent discussions. On Friday even- 1 tog %ha, results became apparent in the adopt Vin of the following platform: - - The Republican party. of Virginia in conference assembled, announce the ftil• lowing declaration of principles: lira An immediate enforcement( of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the National Constitution; Inletter and in apirif, and the adoption of any,' other measures necessary to guarantee I universal fteedomof thought, speech, end action. • . 1 I Bee-ord.

Subsequently a resolution in the form of a substitute, and to the effect that the conference had "no confi dence in the alleged Republicanism of the Governor of Virginia, but do not consider It worth while to characterise isle politi cal course" was adopted. The Republi can journals of Virginia pronounce the , conference a success, and feel that it will be productive of greet benefits to the party In the next campaign, when the united support of a candidate In whom all have confidence will place the State in the hands of the Republican party. Alrealm access Ullissactuants Pelson , -An Old MA reintened After 7 wanly Year* of Connnement. A. most touching scene occurred in the Massachusetts State Prisein in Charleston, last week one 'afternoon.. Over twenty years ago a young man named George Hunnewell, with every prospect of a bright and prosperous future, fell from • proud and upright station of sobriety and integrity to the lowness of drunkenness and vice, and, as too many have before and since done, soon became • willing follower and an easy victim of that curse of humanity, strong drink. In Oc tober, 1E47, alter a relent from an ini. prisonment ores months, he deliberately set fire in the night time to his own home, and a brother of his, in endeivoring to secure sums .papera from the petished in the tames. Hunnewell was arrested tried and convicted and sea tenced ' to be hanged, that being the penalty for arson in thew days. The sentence, however, was commuted to imprisonment for life. About the let of February, twenty-two years and two months ego, he entered the gates of a prison from which to him there was no returning. Isolated from the bright and I busy world without, dead forever. in this existence, to the blessed gift of freedom. he seemed doomed to live on, and per haps die within the walls of • building to him a living tomb. Only once dining these long and weary years, and then only for one short hoar, has he been per mitted to gaze upon the scenes of his early yearn, and then only from the cu la of his prison. Never his confinement has he been *minedduring to go outside, the gates he entered so many years ago. Hebei lived on day after day, patient, yet hopeful that he might yet be pardoned widget free, but never daring perhaps a realization of his wishes But last week opened a new leaf in the experience of his life; for at noonday he stood, for the first time for nearly a queer. ter of a century, a free man. By the =sent of the Governor, arrangements were made for extending to this old and patient priioner a full and unconditional pardon.. About ten o'clock the prisoners were canal to the chapel, Where were seated quite a numerous audience, and after the usual devotionelexerelles by the chaplain. Warden Haynes offered a few remarks, comprising a returns of his ex perience during "Ms connection with the ' prison, and after britfly alluding to the alined . custom of the Goverior of par doning an inmate. of his large family, he stated that to-day it gave himgreat pleas , rare to announce as the subject of. execn7 five clemency the name of George Hun. newell, and requested him bearing that name to stand up. In - response an old, gray-haired man, fifty-nine years old, slowly rose with mingled feelings of joy and surprise depicted on his features. Mielted cheers arose from the -audience, Which was gladly joined in try . the no son. ere, l and in the ceinfulon and excitement Hunnewell was hurried Out of the chapel, to throw aside foreter the, garnitnta of a felon.
