WasHINGTON, August 15, 1869, ‘The great moral effect of the recent elections in Vir- ginia on politics and parties in the South renders the views of prominent pubiic men in this section at the present time interesting throughout the country. Your correspondent, therefore, avatied himself o1 the opportunity afforded by # recent visit to Raleigh, the capital of the State of North Carolina, to call on Governor Holden for the purpose of ascertaining his sentiments on public affairs, He found the Governor very affable and communicative. Ife docs not be- lueve in @ dogged and obstinate adherence to ex- ploded or dead tssues, but acts on the priaciple that astatesman must keep up with the progress of events, if he cannot guide and control taem. Your correspondent introduced the conversa- tion by remarkin; I notice, Governor, that you have been particularly bonored by the opposition paper since my arrival here, which represents that you Were one of the most prominent instigators of the rebellion in the State, and supported tue doce trine of secvasion, aud that you Only changed your opiuions When the repeilion became? a faiiure.

As a proof cf this, in 1362 1 earuestly urged Governor Vasice to meet Governor Stanley at Kinston aud treat for peace. I determined wo seize the frac occasion to ovtain peace on the basis ofa resiored Union, Accordingly in 1863, after Gene- ral Graut had captured Vicksburg, I Loox oven grounds in the Sianctard newspaper for negotia- tons. In two months eighty peace meetings were heid in tae State, But la September of that year my printing office was sacked by Confeticrave troops iront Richmond, and the peacs move- meut was repressed by the military. I was in great personal porilfrom this period till General suerman reached Kaleign, being coustantuly denounced a8 # Lincolnite and @ traitor to the con: federacy, Keing an uaconditional Union man, I giadly hailed tbe mcoming of tae Union troops, 1 endeavored as Provisional Governor to carry ous the so-called piau of President Jonson on a legal basis.

The Chicago Times revives this littie bit of history, which should be taken in conuecuion with the late Gettysburg fatiure:— Some years ago a bill was before the United States Senate making appropriations for decorating the national Capicol. Senator Suinner moved a proviso that chere should be no decorations designed to cuin- memorate a victory by Americans over their couniry- men, As this was wiile civil war was raging and the passions of the people were stirred to intensity, the motion was an eminently patriotic one, aad met the approval of the Senate, A democratic exchange says John A.
