TVhat hos been done for Virginia?

This question was lately asked with a sneer-and we
We're reminded of the appointment of Minister I,
France ani OF the Treasurer of the u. States the
only good offices which Virginia had received the
hands OF the Admnisration.-And suppose she had re
ccived nothing, would that have been any reason lol
an opposition 10 A. Jackson' When did Virginia becom,
so mcrcenary that she will support Administration
which did not share with her the loavcs and fishes!
But-what becomes OF this pretended argument this
miserable appeal to selfish prejudices?-we now
understand, that another most distinguished citizen OF
Virginia MIR. John Ronlo'ph, of Roanoke, has been
nominated as Minister TO st. Petersburg. Thus
two OF the most distinguished missions to Europe
have been bestowed upon the citizens of Virginia
Many doubts have been entertained, whether Mr..
r. will accept the appointments and already insinu-
atons have been thrown out that it is only empty
compliment to Virgina-ior, that he will certainly de-
cline the honor-But, we presume the Administration
would scarcely have nominated him, without first con-
suing his wishes.

From the Oxford N. c. Examiner. FARMERS ARrTHMETIC.'

FARMERS AktEhMGEAOs
 Profits of Agricaltare.-If the great Franklin had ever lived in the country, his observing eye would have noticed, and his discriminating judgment have solved the following difficult problems:
 l. Farmers are more imposed upon than any other class of the community they pay near the whole expense of the State Government are sometimes op- pressed by the onerOus measures. ot the General Government, and by the commer- cial regulations of foreign nations never have much money, yet every industrious prudent farmer grows rich .e
 2. The mechanic receives his 75 cents or dollar day, yet he remains poor the farmer earns his seventeen cents a day, and grows rich :,
 8. Merchants, Physicians, Lawyers. and others, receive their thousand per annum, and die poor, while the Farmer scarcely receives as many tens, yet dies rich
 How are these strange results produced ! All calculations in dollars and cents fail to account for it. Those who are determin- ed to bring every thing to the standard of dollars and cents, pronounce agriculture to be wholly unproftable, when the fact that nearly all the wealth of the country has been obtained by agriculture, stares them in the face. Tn the OpinioD of these eal- culators, agriculture is the proper pursuit of such only who have not sense enough to pursue any thing else:

holiday Of our Pilgrim Fathers--the time
when they lsnelt beside the full garner
and thnnkedl Almighty God that he had
not sent starvation instead OF Plenty!--
That we have said, ever since the white
man first gathered his harvest upon the
wild shores-of New England-it has been
the signal for scattered kindred to gather
once more beneath the roof where they
were born-for the mother to welcome
her daughter--for the father to grasp the
hand of his son--for brethren and sisters
long separated upon the broad ocean OF
life, to gather once more around the hearth
stones of their sires, and recall by associa-
tien, pleasures sweeter than they were
short, brighter than they were, transient,
dearer 10 the enjoyment than they are
bitter In the remembrance! What mat
tcrs il that we have said all this' Because
we have once, OF twice, or thrice, spoken
ofthis Christian holiday, shall we do 81
no more? Are our seasons less bright, OF
our haryests less plenteous, or our homes
less dear, or our hearts less Thankful
than tney were in years gone by? Have
