and improvements. The paper will be
devoted 10 fearless exposition Of Demo-
cratic principles; it will xealonsIy and un-
remittingly oppose each and every effort
10 establish mamoth monarchy bank and
other miscbievous corporations and con.
solidations Of wealth, which subvert the
rights of the people and undermine the
pillars Of the Republic; it will oppose an
oppressive aud anti.repnblican tariff sys.

Against all such political delusions, we
shall wage unchanging, uncompromising
war.

FIRE IN THE MOUNTAINS.

We understand that the mountains West of us
were on fire most extensively during the past
week, and that serious damage has been done,
in the destruction of fences and other proper
ty, in Bath and Pendleton, and also in onr own
county. The whole population, male and female,
in many places, were engaged for days in fight
ing the fire, to save their dwellings and other
buildings-the danger to which was imminent,
the weather being dry and exceedingly windy.
We regret to learn that Mr.. James E. Craw-
ford, in the neighborhood of Deerfeld, in this
county, had his house destroyed, (wbether by fire
from the mountain we have not ascertained,) and
also Mr.. Inch, (where situated we have not
heard,I and that there was large amount Of
fencing burnt under the mountain above Middle
brook, and in the Deighborhood Of jennings
Gap.
A fire also broke out about the same time in
the Blue Ridge above Waynesborough, which
report says did considerable damage.-.The only
building destroyed that We have beard of wa,

NEW ARITHMETIC.

The Petersburg Intelligencer notices in very
complimentary terms, new Arithmetic, by Col.
francis RI. Smith and r. r.. w. DUKE, Profes.
sors of Mathematics in the Virginia Military In
stitute at Lexington, which has just been pub
lished.
The work is called "THE AMgRrchN PaAcrI-
CAL ARITHMETIC" and embraces all the rules Of
simple Arithmetic, with copous Illustrations
avoiding the error of most such works of run
ming into the higher branches Of Mathematics.
Another pecnliarity Of the work is that its exam
pies are made up of statistics of our own and TO-
reign countries, so that while the student is mas
tering its principles he is acquiring other useful
information.

And, lastly, We ask YOU to cooperate with us
by assuming that control over the councils of the
State which properly belongs to you. The abil.
ty OF the Society to promote the interests agr-
culture will be vastly Increased by Legislative
aid, such asis setforth In the resolutions adop,ed
BY the Convention. To obtain it, the farmers in
every neightorhood, especially the members of
the General Committees, must circulate among
the people petitions to the Legislature SETTING
forth their wants and demanding a share of ;hs
attention and assistance Of our law makers. We
doubt not that the Legislature, in their wisdom.
VIII grant the aid asked for; but the Society can
demand 1t with much greater confidence ii the
farmers bestir themselves, and second the demand
by petitions nuaierousiy signed.
Ihe only remaining topic to which we shall
advert is the question that may be asked-is il
practicable to form such an Association in Vir.
gina at this timel We confidently answer in
the affirmative. We have the most abundant
material for the formation of such a Society in
the energy, intelligence and public spirit Of nu-
merous body of well informed farmers. The time
Is most suspicious during the calm which has
succeeded the late storm of political excitement,
and the scheme must succeed il, in the true spiri,
OF Hercules, we put our shoulders 10 the wheel
and urge it on, instead Of wasting our zeal in un
avaiiing lamentations over the lansuishing condi.
lon OF agriculture among us. Shall Virginia,
forever hugging TO her bosom the fading recol-
iecuons OF her past greatness, be content to see
her sister States outstrip2ing her In the race OF
/ Improvement, and SURPRISING her III wealth, pop
uiation and Intelligence, while she rs sinking
lower and lower in the scale of political impOr-
lance, without AN effort by her sons TO check heI
downward career! Shall we bear forever she
bitter reproach Of tagging behind in race when
honor isto be won. We look to the farmers Of
Virginia, by newborn and untiring zeal in III,
cause of agricultural Improvement, to answe
these taunting questions in the negative.

LATEST FROM TEXAS.

The steamship New York, arrived at New
Orleans, brings news from Galveston to the 25th
of March. The intelligence locks more favora-
BILE to annexation. The Houston Star announces
the passage of the Texas Resolutions through
Congress with great e1ultation. 1t says the news
was received by the people there with burst of
enthusiasm that has never been exceeded-the
victory Of San Jacinto itself scarcely exciting
such general and enthusiastic rejoicing.
David F. Kaufman has been appointed Charge
dAflaires to the United States. He is repre-.
sented to be an ardent friend of Annexation.
On the other hand, the Texas Register and
other papers, are yehemen,ly opposed to Annexa-
ton; and it is evident, if the measure is consum-
mated, it will not be without violent struggle.
meeting of the citizens of Galveston had
been held to reques, President Jones to call an
extra session of Congress for the purpose of as
certaining the will of the people in regard to an
nexation.

From the New Orleans Bee of March 26.
THE MEXICAN INDEMNITY.

We published a few days ago paragraph from
the Richmond Enquirer relative TO the last Mexi-
can instalment, in which TRioueRos, a partner Of
the firms of Hargous & Co. il Vera Cruz, and
voss u Co. IN New Y ork, is severely handled :,
for supposed appropriation to his own use of
the funds destined for the United States Govern
ment.
"A citizen Of Mexico, NJ. PAYNo, editor of the
&gIo Diez . Nuere, who is now in our city, has
called upon us and requested TO insert the fol-
lowing statement, generating Trigueros from
the accusations of the Enquirers
New ORLEANS, March 80, Isi5.
Messrs. Editors; In the Bee of Yesterday is
published paragraph from the Richmond En-
Qu'rer, in which it is stated that Mr.. Trgueros
Santa Annals fiscal agent, "paid with one hand
the last instalment 1875 ,O0O) into the other.
with which he wrote the receipt as agent of the
United States Government, and that he has alb
squatulated, carrying with him this amount
which the United States will doubtless lose"
AS friend of Mr.. Trgueros, and as lover
of truth and justice, beg leave to assure you
that he is not partner in the firm of Hargous g.
Co., nor in that of Voss a. Co.; that Mr.. 'rri-
gueros never dreamt of ''absquaiulating," mas
much as he resigned of his own free will, long
before the revolution in Mexico and the fall of
Santa Anna, and that he is now residing in Mex
leo, and has never thought of committing the
crime imputed to him.
MIR. NoSs is a merchant Of established reputa-
ton, who would not violate his engagements for
any consideration whatever. The payment of
the instalment in question has doubtless been re-
tarded by the recent revolutionary movements in
Mexico; and now that they have terminated
peacefully, feel satisfied that the new Admins
tration will afford of complaint to TO-
reign nations.
You will confer ar obligation by publishing
this correction of a misstaiement into which the
editors of the Richmond Enquirer have probably
inadvertently fallen.
Very respectfully, Nj. PAYNO.

CONDUCT OF A SENATOR

The New York Express has The following pa
ragraph respecting Senator in Congress from
New York, who was elected early in the session
of the n. Y. Legislature, to fill an unexpired
term, ending the 9TH inst, and who was at a later
period elected for the six years term, beginning
on the 4th.
"Mr. DIS. Dickinson is claiming double mile
age, as he has been at Washington under two
appointments the last being made while he was
sitting under the first! Mr.. MaDgum declined to
certify, and the Committee Of the Judiciary have
given unanimous opinion that the charge was
illegal, and could not be allowed under the rules
of the Senate. Then Dickinson proposed to
leave the affair TO Daniel Webster. MIR. hiangum
agreed, and the "great expounder" gave our era
wing Senator an exposition not at all TO his liking.
All this is very pretty business for Senator Of
New York! AS Cassips said to Brutus,

u The failures of the Northern mail still
continue to degree which is in.olerable. The
fault, it is well ascertained, is with the Balti-
more and Ohio RAILROAD Company, and we
hope our new Postmaster General, who has the
reputation of being most energetic and business
man, will not fail, upon knowledge of the facts,
to apply the necessary corrective. Being fire.

THE WHITE UOUSE

If Washington correspondent Of the New
York Herald be correct, the occupant of the White
House has hard time of it, He says--"the
daily scenes at the White House are humiliatiDg
in The extreme, and shameful in their character.
The President has TO rest. His emacaled and
anxiousiy pleading appearance would excite your
pity. He rs reduced to the shadow of shade.
His hollow cheeks, his bloodless complexion,
appeal TO the ferocious cormorants for Office to
desist. But they will not desist, in which case
we would advise Captain Polk TO promise every
man fat Office who goes home and ceases 10
torment him, as the surest way Of being saved
from his friends. Otherwise they will hafass
him to the bone-yard.'

Capt. Rynders of the VAMPIRE { Empire Club,
NeW York.-There is a gentleman connected with
the New York Democratic press, who has in his
possession some very interesting and important
letters written by Rynders, which furnish key
to the past history of that important parsonage.
The said letters were taken from d gambler, for
ger, &C., who was some time since arrested, and i,
believe. convicted in New York. In them he
displays TO the person to whom they were adj
dressed his entire connection with the Vicksburg
gamblers, &C., who were unceremoniousiy
driven from that city few years since.
Being written about that time, he enclosed a
handbill advertising himself and others, which
he tells his friend will account for his leaving
there at all, and as the reason why he took his
departure so abruptly. They have been read by
Gov. Wright, by whom the Captain and his
Vampire Club Is understood and marked for de-
mocratc degradation. The letters will probably
be shortly published in the New York city press.

Wonders in the Aoon--Efpected Discoceries.
Lord ROSES great Irish Telescope is nearly
finished, and the next steamer may bring us ac-
counts of some of the observations made by it..
Speculation as 10 the probable discoveries in the
moon is already rife in England, and many look
for confirmation Of the celebrated moon story,
originally published at the Sun Office in 1885.
The planets of some of the systems nearest Our
own, will no doubt be brought to view in this great
instrument; and in anticipation of such wonder
fu event, Sir Jonn Hershel has already called
attention to minute pontlike stars around several
of the larger fixed stars.
