The various Mining Companies Of
London and other parts Of Europe,
which have at different, periods sent
their agents 10 South America or Mex
ico, with enormous funds, expecting
to realize large profits, have, in many
instances failed IN accomplishing their
objects, by the dishonesty or incapaci-

be the case ia Virginia. The agent or
superintendent Of mine, acting un-

Board OF Directors, hardly has il in his
power iobe dishonc st.-and his want Of
capacity and skill would Immediately
be discovered.
Taking into view the mining cspa.
bilitIes of Virginia, and all the circum-
stances favorable 10 the prosecution Of
mining, either on small orlargc scale,
the conclusion Is irresistible, that Com

have at any period, or in any part Of

are not actually rery poor; and no
doubt many investments OF but small

suit IN comparative wealth.
