observers reasoning from analogy and pieces of ma
tive gold ckcd up at various places and times on The
surface, between the Rappahannock and Roanoke
think that the region OF Virginia ecdistant from tht
mountains and tide water, is also rich in this precious
metal. IF the account of the width of the mine il
Davidson county go fect be correct. and its wealth
prove proportouatc to its breadth, it far SURPRISES
that OF Brazil and Peru Capital and enterprise are
turning their attention to working these mines. Th
gold mines in China have never been allowed to bt
worked, aud some think this not the least evidence
OF the wisdom which has presided the rule of that
ancient and extraordinary people. The history of tbs
world certainly shows that tile people possessing thc
precious minerals in greatest snpcr1nity, arc mol
those whose condition has been most a,neorated by
them Spain and Portugal are ready illustrations o
the remark. Their pristine power aud greatness va
nished when they possessed themselves of the metal
lie wealth of Mexico, South America and the East
and since they have been little better than ewers
wood and drawers OF water 10 other nations. So may
it not be with our fellow citizens of North Carolina
but rather may their gold prove succedancum foi
their baak paper.
