DEATH OF THE HON. JAMES MCDOWELL.
OF VIRGINIA

1t is with heartfelt sorrow that we perform
the duty of announcing to our readers the de-
cease of the Hon. JAMES MCDOWELL, Rep
resentative in Congress for several years past
from the State of Virginia, and formerly for
some years Governor of that State. He
died at his residence near Lexington, Virgin
ia. on Sunday last, at about the age of fifty
six years.
A nobler gentleman, a more upright man,
a truer patriot, never graced bis native State.
1t is recently. in comparison with the Pc
Rod during which we have ourselves been in
contact with public men, that we have had
the opportunity ofobserving the public course
Of this excellent and distinguished citizen
So elevated were his aims, SO ardent his de-
votion to bis whole country, so free wac bis
character from all the dross of humanity, so
true to all the duties of q citizen, and all the
instincts of gentleman and responsible
titles Of a Christian--so learned, so enlight-
ened and so modest withall--that he has
left behind him no superior in the estimation
and regard of all with whom he was associa-
ted in public or private life.
As Representative of the People, we may
sum up his character by saying that Of all
men we have known he approached the near

VIRGINIA AND A DIRECT TRADE.

The Journal Of Commerce, one of the most
sensible papers in the Union, and for years
past remarkable for the general business and
sagacity of its national views, thus notices
the proposition for direct importing trade
for Virginia:

de held at Richmond, on the 10th of Septem-
ber to take into consideration the establish.
ment of a direct trade between Virginia and
foreign countries, has hcen signed by the
principal mercantile houses in Richmond

experiment will be made; and If So we hope
it will De successful. Virginia has as good a
right to import goods for her own consump-
ton as we have to import them for her."
