[R solutions of the Editorial Conrt'n Of Va.
These resolutions are some OF the results OF the
collective wisdom and the bitter experience oil me
Editorial Corps of Virginia that were assembled I
a, Richmond, on the 18th of January, ISIS.
By these resolutions we are determined 10
abide. The interests of the press recommend,
and our own interests require, an iniiexibie ad-
hercnce 10 them. Several of the American
presses are driven into the English custom OF
cash payments No class OF men has lost more
by an abuse Of the crcdG system, than the EaitorS
Of newspapers. The great difficulty consists in
the transition from one system 10 the other. Not
whs,anding the Resolutions OF the Editorial
Convention, we have been induced 10 continue
several old subscribers ON the book, who are in
Arrears 10 this office We must change our
course. The name of every subscriber who is
in this prclicament, viii positively be stricken

A STRIKING FACT.

The people of Vermont, though almos,
exclusively an agricultural people, in iS4O
used | 50, 900 barrels Of flour the wheat Of
which was grown in the other States Of The
Uaion. This large amount Of breadsiuis
they were enabled TO bug in and import
from other S ates, because they were en-
gagged in The raising of sheep to supply the
Eastern manufactures with wool. Should
not this striking fact carry to the minds OF
every rejecting farmer, proof Of the ne
cessily of supporting the Tariff, whose pro-
lection uphods and secures so excellent a
market for those of them engaged in The
growing OF corn and wheat. Break down
the Tariff tomorrow, and the farmers OF
Vermont will be compelled TO abandon wool
culture and 10 grow their own breadslufis,
and thus will this market for so much -four
be broken up.-AmericaH Wig.

A aughable circumstance took place al
the Wheeling Theatre on Monday evening
of last week, which has been related 10 US
by a friend who was present. The play
was the " Hunchback," and grave old
gentleman in spectacles, who sat near the
stage, was observed TO maultest en- intense
interest in the progress ofthe piece. Miss
Eliza Logan was playing "Juha with
great force and earneslness, and IN the last
act, while the young actress seemed 10 be
choking under the effort to smother her
towering Indignation, the restlessness OF
the old mans feet and the conynlsve
twitchngs of his face attested his emotion.
At length, when, with flashing eye and
diated nostrils, the fiery julia Numbered
forth, do = the excited auditor sprung
to his feet, and addressing the astonlshed
Master Walter, exclaimed, Stop, sir,
you've carried this thing far enough :
You can't force her to marry in this coun-
Try |" A roar of laughter from the au'
dience reminded the old gentleman of the
fiction OF The scene, and he sat down the
most abashed individual imaginable
