PROSPERITY OF MARYLAND.

We have heretofore frequently had occasion to
advert to the fact Of the steady increase in the value
of Maryland lands. The advance Of agriculture
in our State has been steady and sure, and, by the
aid Of agricultural associations, the application Of
various fertilizing substances, and the energy and
perseverance Of our Maryland farmers, lands which
a few years ago were considered not worth cultiva-
ton have been resuscitated and made to pay well
for their improvement. As an evidence of the in
creased value of land, need only cite the follow
ing facts from gentleman well versed in the mat
ter, and who has furnished them to the Cecil Wing
One farm has increased during the last ten years
from 1900 to $s,400; another from $4,000 to
$4,000; another tract of Ill acres, from 1886 TO
$4,000 and for another large tract which, 10 years
ago sold for $l2,lO0, $4,000 have lately been
offered. These farms are situated in the fifth cleo
ton district Of Cecil county, and are buta fair sam
pie of the increase in the value Of land in that Sec
ton of the State. We are happy to add that these
evidences Of prosperity are not confined TO Cecil
alone, but throughout the State wherever the proper
and attention has been paid to agriculture, the
result has been quite as satisfactory.

THE SOBER SENSE OF VIRGINIA.

~ "yALLEY WING" OF DECEMBER 20.9.sr2.
II has been conceded on all hands, from the first
adoption of the measures of compromise to the pre-
sent, that ninetenths, not nneteen-twentieths of
the people Of Virginia were the steadfast and I'M
wavering supporters of the Union. While both at
the North and the South, Secession and Nullifca-
ton have been advised and threatened in various
quarters, still in Virginia the great mass Of the
people have moved on in the even tenor of their
way. The Secessionists in the Old Dominion are
entirely too ,ceak eUen to auoW their sentiments,
much less to attempt to carry them out in any
practical FORM If Modification is ever popular in
Virginia, the people must be brought TO it by de-
grees-and that too by strdfdgena and disguise.
The pill must be administered under some other
name. The Disunionists already understand this
fact, and they are by no means idle in devising
schemes for bringing Virginia to the /" sticking
point" Instead of Disunion meetings, we now
hear of Southern rights associations, Non.inter-
course Resolutions, &C. Meetings Of this charac-
ter have lately been held in several counties Of the
State. tt #@ ,a a2@g 1851 ,sl
AS to the scheme projected for adopting sys-
tenn Of Non-intercourse ,oifh the North, we regard
it as euevy ,cay in,practicabe, short Of dissol1-
| ton OF the Union. And if even practicable, il
would in its operations be impolitic and unjust.
| While the adoption Of such course would be
highly proper in relation to some of the non-slave
holding States, yet all must confess that it would
4 be unjust to abandon all commercial intercourse
with such States Pennsylvania and Indiana, boti
i of whom have given abundant evidence that they
are determined to abide by the Constitution ane
execute the provisions of the Fugitive Slave Law
Even in New York, it is well known that the enc
mics of the Institutions of the South not to be
found among its commercial and business men, but
among entirely different class. In fact, the
best. and perhaps the only true friends which the
South have in New York, are to be found among
its commercial population. By adopting this non
intercourse policy, we fail to reach our enemies,
and only punish our friends. But, even if it was
desirable for the South to abandon all commercial
intercourse with New York, Massachusetts,, and
some other Northern States, yet it would avail
nothing so long as we continue our dealing with
any of the non.slavehoding States. Suppose we
repudiate the trade Of New York, and continue that
Of Pennsylvania. Would not our non-intercourse
with New York prove a mere farce? Gould not
New York still continue TO trade with us through
her agents in Pennsylvania We regard all such
schemes as disguised plots to endeavor to commit
the people Of the Old Dominion to what they have
always repudiated-- Notification and Disunion.
