We regret to hear that there is any doubt Of the
success Of this important measure in the Senate.
VIC consider il based upon justice, and its passage
is essential to the success Of other Wing measures,
and will prove omincnlly bcnsfcnl 10 the States.
Oh Virginia needs her quota Of or 100000 per an
mum, greatly. Il would enable her, without bur.
dcning her citizens 10 perfect all her great improve
ments, and establish a system Of common schools,
wh sh will diilso light and know ledge into every
