Virgtuia Politics, OUR RICHMOND CORRESPONDENCE. Rucwmonp, March 24, 1855. Te Progress of the Canvass—The Secessions Srom the Whigs and from the Democrats—The Feeling in the Bais, do. gave you in my last a sketch of our candidates for governor, lientenant governor, attorney general, and eommirsioner of the board of public works. I have now te say that, as the news comes in from all quarters of ‘wis widely-extended State, the mominstions are every- where responded to in the most satisfactory manner. The whigs of the State are generally satisfled, Here and ‘there are some stiff-backed old fellows, who love a demo- ‘erat as the old boy loves holy water, and who vow they @annet go a ticket with one whig and three democrats on it. Some of them, perhaps most of the few who thus talk, are perfectly sincere in this, but there are also seme who, if their particular friend had been the “‘one whig,”” could have swallowed with great ease three or bree dozen democrats. As a general thing, the whigs af the State are delighted with the ticket, and the inde- pendent democrats stand up toit in a solid phalanx. The Enquirer, of yesterday, made a great shout of tri- ‘umph over the fact that Thoma J. Michie, of Staunton, whem it pronounces the first lawyer of the first bar of Virginia, and who was formerly an unflinching whig, bas ‘announced his aetermination to support the Wise ticket Jeheerfally admit all that the Enquirer can say in favor of Mr. Michies’ talents and virtues. He is an ornament toa bar which was once graced by the mighty Iatellect of the illustrious Daniel Sheffey, and at which Johnson, Peyton and Baldwin exerted their lofty powers. Bat if ‘we have lost Michie, who is the head of the Western Dar, have we not gained Patton, who is the head of the Eastern bar? Moreover, Michie is not a recent acqui- sition to the democracy. He refused to vote for Scott, and, as I doubt not, from conscientious motives. Now, as a set off against an accesion here and there to the de. mocracy, the rank and file of the democracy are desert- fog the Wise standard by multitudes. The Wise papers Rave got up a cock-and-bull story about there being but one democrat in the Winchester nominating convention, ‘he rest being all whigs. Now, Sir, although I have no personal knowledge of the fact, I am informed by high and undoubted authority in the Order, that of this con- vention, which consisted of one hundred members, fifty- two were whigs, and forty-nine democrats, That is & fact, and those who feel interested in the subject may with confidence adopt it as the basis of any caleu- dations they may see At to make. This fact, as weil aa the nominations that were made, show that party ties wore forgotten, and that the Kuow Nothings were looking to the most competent men for the service of the Siate, and not to the political ascendancy of either of the old parties. From all quarters we hear of prominent members of the democratic party bolting in the most open and de- Sant manner. Beale, Patton, Morris, the Know No- Pring nominees, are all old line democrats. Edmond Roffin, the great patriarch of the egzicultural interests of Virginia, and a Calhoun democrat of the straightest sort, will not, Iam informed, give Wise his support. Ye the Franklin Congressional district, Mat. Claiborne, ene of the regular out-and-outers of the young democra- —a stripe more progressive and radical than George ers—a real go-ahead, rough-and-tumble Davy Grockett sort of a fellow, has come out flat-footed on the Know Nothing platform, and will probably run for Con- ainst Bocosk,’ In the Williamaburg district, uel J, Bowden, formerly a democratic rasmber of the Iegislature, and held in high repute by his party, will not support Mr, Wise. In Caroline county, Mr. DeJar- mette, the regularly nominated candidate of the demo- eratic party for the Legislature, boldly owned his opposi tion to Wise. The party held another saall caucus, and bromght out another candidate, but the wasjority of the democracy of Caroline stand firmly by DoJarnctte. : Then there is Jones, of James City; Hoge, of Montgomery; Keily, of Appomat- tox, and other leading democrat, in open groun} and hopeless rebellion. Jones had been appointed deiaocratic eleotor for James Ra but refused to accept, on account of his opposition to Wise. At the democrati moeting at last Buckingham Court, David J. Woodfin, Esq., a good and truco democrat, being loudly called tor, came for- ‘ward and announced that he had hesetofore acted with the democratic party, but that ho now stood upon the great American platform. This announcement fell like ® bombshell among tho faithful Mr. Woodfin pro- eeeded to hurl back the charge of abolltioviam which bes deen brought against the Know Nothinga, and eontluded by expressing bis regret to sce the Rich- mond Enquirer joined hand in hand with the New York Tribune, Albany Evening Journal, &e. I give you these as specimens of the developments that aio occariing at eeunty court meotings all over Virginia. . It is in vain for the organs here to pour bot stot into ‘Whose incependent democrats, who have opsned their in- vous minds to the truth, and are not restrained by Enquirer's thunder from declaring their conscien- tious convistions Better treat them kindly, uso soft words and try and coxx them! That's the way old Mr. Ritchie would have done, and he would by this time ave hadallfithe refractory steede working ‘kindly in har- nets.

But where is proof of th’s? I donot ree it in agy of the pabliahed platforms of the arty. ‘The Know Nothings, aI understand, object to the Pope’s temporal power, net to hiv spiritual. If the Pope should to-morrow caaso te be a temporal prince, the Know Nothings would havo pomore pretext to make war upon him than upon the Archbisbop.of Canterbury, or the Moderator of the Ge- moral Anrembly of Seotlani. I freely coafow that [ think it would be better if the Know Nothing press would keep this distinction before the people. aA diller- ent course gives the impression, which I ato sure is not ‘true, that the object of the Know Nothing association is t down the Roman Catholic Churely, instead of pre- serving the ballot box from foreign influence. 1, for ene, and Iam sure many others feeias Ido ia sympa- thizing with whet Iam in‘ermed are the objs Knew Nothingiam, have no sort of idea of img imany crusade against the Koman Cath mpy other church. 1 would have its the most perfect ani entire religioue freedom.

KNOW SOMETAING. ACCEPTANCE OF THOMAS 8. FLOURNOY, AMERICAN CANDITATE FOR GOVERNOR OF VIRGINIA, Haurrax, ©, H., March 22, 1856.

Tntimately com: with this question of To im- migration is the growth of the Roman Catholic Church in our country.

If, with these opinions and this position, the people of Virginia shall elect me to the distinguisse office of Go- vernor of the Commonwealth, I will dissharge ita duties with fidelity and what ability I possess I will endeavor to advance the prepay, guard the honor and protect the interests ond institutions of Ma ey by all the power veated in me, and I shall do all that { can, consistent with her interest and honor, for the preservation of the Union.

It wilt be seen by the following letter that Hon, Jon C, Breckinridge declines making a canvass for Congress the prevent ye ar:— + Lexineton, March 17, 1865, T have obterved that the county meetings and the de- mocratic press of this district have expressed @ profer- ence for me ae the nominee for Congress, and perhaps I am justified in supposing it to be the desire of my part: that I shallagain bea candidate Yor nearly a year have foreseen that it would be im my power, at pre- sent, to mako another canvass; and I should have made this snnouncement earlier, but that it seemed to me more decorous first to complete the term for which I was elected. At the earliest moment after my return home, I communicated this conclusion to the delegates irom the district, assembled at the Democratic State Con- yention, and now make it more pablic in this form, that ae democracy may iake the proder steps to select a can- ate. Feeling strongly the bonds of pol.tical and personal friendships, forged in the heat of ardent contests, nothing lea than the most controlling reasons could in: ,duce me to decline the canvass. These reasons are purely private and domestie, but they are euch as the obligations of honor and duty do not permit me to dis- regard. And in asking, for the present, an honorable discharge, I hope it is not improper for me to say here, that I do it with a heart full of gratitude to the people of this district for their unwavering confidence, and that the remembrance of their kindness will be che- rished by me with enthusiastic memory until the pulses of Hife forever cease to beat. ‘To my political b 4 pgmorated ldesire to express my ac. snowledements for the general fairness and courtesy of their courss in contlicts characterized by great exsite. ment. If, like myself, they feel no sting in recurring to the past, I am sure we shall jog on together in social life with reciprocal sentiments of good will. Indeed, the old whig Ca § of the Ashland district was a bold and manly party, and for my part, I have seen it surren ‘er its name and lower its tlag with regret. We retire from the field together; but ahould it ever be my fortune to rs.appear on the political theatre, I shall be happy to welcome our cld friends im ther old uniform—of whom, at least, it could be said that under the name of wh’ge they offered a fair field and en open encounter. JOHN C. BRECKENRIOGE. STRENGTH OF THF AMERICAN PARTY IN MISSISSIPPI.

Although I promised on my departure to write to you often, moving from one place to ahother has prevented me keeping my promise, I have now, hewever, some news to send you, and hasten to do so, General Santa Anna, accompenied by General Blanco, his Minister of War and Marine, left the city of Mexico on the 26th ultimo for Cusrnavacca.’ It was stated by the government press that the caugg of his absence was mainly'to re-establish his health—that he was going for afew days toa warmer climate, and at the same time @esired to be nearer the focus of the revolution, and be able to dictate prompt and energetic measures to check it. Some of the newspapers even feared for his Serene Highners’s life, as he might, io the heat of passion, ex- pose himself to all kinds of privations and fatigaes. It is to be observed, however, that before his Serene High- nees left, his troops, and even the majority of his body guard (Guias de S. A, S.) bad left, with the intended purpose— according to the papers—of attacking the re- volutionists. Gen, Woll, a Frenchman, it is said has also accompanied the one-legged hero. On the 6th inst. the only paper in the city, (ZI Ecodel Comercio) published an extra, giving an account of a battle won by H. 8. H. over the rebels, and the capture of a city—Alvarez and his ron having had a very narrow ercape. The same paper also stated that Col. Moreno, who had passed over to Alvarez with the column under his command, had been captured by some of Santa Anna’s troops and shot; and that his Highness was about re- turning to Mexico city. But the truth of the whole affair is, that there is nosuch battle won or fought, and that Santa Anna himself caused said report to be made out and spread, in order toentertain the public attention while he retreats to Tampico, where, itis said and be- lieved, he willembarx in the English mail steamer for Havana or Jamaica, His wife left Mexico city some days ago, taking with her several articlesof furniture, and it is believed she mt away by the last trip of the Englich packet, which left here on the fifth instant. And this report is further to be credited on account of here that on the evening of the 3d instant Madame Senta Anna had arrived in Vera Gruz, and being cheered by the Guards, she stated her wish of pasmng unno- ticed. A carriage belonging to Gen. Santa Aumh, and three millions of dolars, were embarked on board the British mail steamer which left on the th. A revolution is daily expected in Yucatan, of which State Gen. Ampudia, of fried ofl memory, is at present Governor. His two nephews, Col. Enrique and Francizco de Ampudia, together with several officers, are here awaiting the arrival of one of the Mexican steamers, at present on the Rio Grande, to convey them to Cam- peachy. Gen. Ampudia has asked of the government to send the steamer Iturbide to cruise on the coast, so as to help him, in case of any movement, to keep the poor Yucatecos Cown; but it is most likely they will not send any steamer there tefore the revolution breaks out. jen. Marin, the’ new Governor of the Island del Car- men, residing at Laguna de Terminos, has sent over a delegation to the government, with a view of making them acquainted with the necessities of the country, and authorize him to establish a dosk yard and a navi- gation school at Laguna.

Commodore Valle left on the 15th of February for the city of Mexico, to return im filteen days, but at latest eccounts he had followed Santa Auna to Cucruaraca. His place of Commander General of the Navy is pro- visionslly occupied by Captain Mateos. The stecmers Iturbide and Santa Anna, which loft for the Rio Grande on the 15th and l7thot February, are daily expected with troope from Matamoras end Tampico. They took with them $100,000 to pay the troops in Mata- moras.
