We published last week the Premiums Of

give place 10 those Of Orleans County. We
hope the Farmers, Mechanics, and tlie Ladies
eyenin zach County, will begin early 10 make
PREPARATIONS 70 present something for eshibi-
ton.
IN this County portion Of our people are
engaging In tie matter With new zeal the
same feeling should be general. Ia Orleans
County a good degree IT interest has been
maintained for several years past aud, Judg'
Jog from the Julicious arrangement, as well
As from the multiplicity Of the premiums Il
cannot but be sill more increased
The COMMITTEES Of Orleans County, We oh
serve, oler more than the ordinary number
Of premiums upon wheat An excellent idea
ANY thing that will call the attention Of our
producers TO the enlarged production of wheat
I u commendablc. la ordinary seasons, under
! iudcious cultivation, lhe raising Of wheat Is
one Of the most profitable branches Of farm
ing. Iiesides, if we can supply ourselves with
Gour the great amount Of money which Is an
nually sent to tho West for the purchase Of
wheat will be saved at home Our farmers
aud tho State would be enriched by retain
ing the money at home. If this can be done
we shall not only feel, but actually become
more independent than We now are.

Dr. The Legislature of Virginia has pass

union. These resolutions are in answer 20
an invitation extended TO Virginia by the
State of South Carolina, 10 send delegates 10
Southern Congress, 10 devise ways and
means TO dissolve the Union, One OF the
resolutions very coaxingly asks South Caro-
lima to forego the notification antics mas
much as the South has got all they want from
Congress at this time. Another resolve di-
reefs the Governor to send cupic1uf the Sc
ries TO the Governors Of each of the States Of

Post very APPLY remarks, "ths'iream of the
Southern Confedorscy IS regarded as an idle
ehimera, and however willing certain of the
Virginia politicians might have been to en-
courage it while il was likely TO serve the de-
sign OF extorhng concessions from the North,
