Virginia Feeling.

The attachment of FirginianS 10 their
State amounts 10 passion, so strong
thati bids defiance 10 Distance and change,
and burns with bright flame even in
death. We have never yet seen the Vir-
gilman, in the Western or Southwestern
States, whose chief pride was not of Fir
ginia. Ofcourse, with those who re-
main at home, the feeling is predominant
and powerful. 1t is sometimes the sub
ieCt of rdicule with those who like one
Commonwealth as well as another, and
rove from State to STATE with as little re-
Iuctance as bird wanders from tree TO
tree. But it is feeling which deserves
respect, and, what's more, will command
respect in time of need. 1t is al once
Credilable to the State and TO her children,
for she must be a good mother who in
spires such love, respect in the bosom Of
her sons, and they must be loyal sons,
who are so proud and loving towards
their mother in her old age. These re-
marks were suggested to us in reading the
following passage iH a speech of Major
w. w. Wallace, in response to toast
offered by Hon. Samuel Chiffon at the
WarrentOn dinner to Gen. Foote
"None but the cmigrant," said Mai.
Wallace, "who has experienced them,
can conceive his emotions when acluated
by spirit of enterprise, he quits the
home of his affections, and see Ks a d0m.

This Is not the solitary experience OF

such is the attachment cherished by all
or sons" We know of no country bu,
Hungary, in " hich is found the same
proud and passionate patriotism. Ii is

people fight for their homes and their

prowess and devotion of Hungary, and
would secure fright fortune from the
battle. for luckily we have no Russia or

might be tempted to assail Southern indie

their love TO their old mother in the more
painful and self,denying pursuits of Home
Industry, Home Trade, Home Manufac'
