a HISTORY OF W ffSTERN VIRGINIA,
"A A BOOK FOR EVERY FAMILY Just
published a History of the Early Settlement and In
dian Wars of Western Virginia, embracing an account
Of the various Expeditions in the West previous to
ger Zane, Major Samuel McCuloch, Lewis WotZel
Gen. Daniel Brodhead. Gen. Andrew Lewis, Captain
Samue! Brady, Col. VIM Crawford, Andrew Poe, and
other distinguished ia Border Wars by Will
lis de Hass, corresponding Member of the Maryland
and New York Historical Societies.
The above work, comprising 46 pages, has Just been
issued and snow offered to the citizens OF Virginia. as
by far the most in erestng and important book ever pub
hed upon that portion OF the State 1t embraces a
full and comprehensive history of the early settle
ment of the West-the trials, prvatlons and suferngs
of the old poneers-of their long and bloody with
the Indians, and final redemption of the land from
wage thraldom. Nothing, surely, can be more int
resting to the people OF Eastern Virginia than recital
OF the stirring events which marked the progress OF the
West.
For more than twenty years the frontier OF Virginia
was one continual scene OF alarm, conflict, conhagra-
ton anc massacre. The tomahawk and scalping knife
pursued the victim to the heart of the orest and spread
death and terror in every direction.
The auhor DR.. De Hass, has collected all the more
stirring incidents conneced with the settlement of the
country and spread them before us in the arac
tive form. His character for research, integrity and
ability bear no doubt. The work is in every respect,
Just what such history should be.
1t is finely embellished with numerous engravings,
some of which full of thrilling interest. Itcontains
also fac simie of the Antique Leaden Plate, found
few years since at the mouth of the Great Kanawha
Every Vlrginan should at once possess himself oil a
