RICHMOND CORRESPONDENCE.

- Extract Ola Letter from A.
WADE, Esq. to Il gentleman Of this
place, dated
RICHMOND, Feb. T, 1852.
| have no news Of importance L"
communicate, hut having nothing
much to do at this time, as the Senate
is virtually taking recess, while the
chamber Is undergoing some repairs,
and there not bcinga quorum present,
VIC do hut little. However, ] think
the question of lislricting the coun.
ties may be considered as pretty well
settled. us,hrcc proposilionshayc been
discussed ut considerable length, viz:
lst. That the Governor appoint I'd.
That the county Courts appoint; Sd.
That fifty committees, composed Of
the Senators and Delegates in each
District, aud that they report proper
persons in each county, not to exceed
eleven. The joint resolution that
passed the Senate provides that the
Committee should fix the number of
Districts, as well as appoint the per.
sons TO perform the duty Of laying
then. oil. The amendment OF tho
House of Delegates is that the num-
Der of Districts be determined by tho
Commissioners. l think there is but
little doubt of the above being in sub
stahce tho plan ~ which the counties
will be districted.
I believe it likewise pretty well set
tied now that no appropriation bills
will be discussed until the new Con-
stitu,ion is set afloat so say to the
candidates for county Offices they had
better take time by the forclock, for
when the spirit once gets up in the
Legislature, they may make the day Of
election rol! round too soon for some.
There is some interest manifested
ut this time on the application Of Mr..
West, of Wetzel, to make railroad
from Huntington to Martinsville.

fire dollars for tar eggs, which had been
prescribed by physician for sick child.

Interesting from Mexico.

A correspondent of the N. York
Times, writing from the city of Mex
leo, under date of the 2Sth of De
Ieember, thus refers to Santa Anna
and his future movements.
Saota Anna, the prince of Next
canconspirators, you know, has new
er relinquished ! his hopes of again
securing his Dictatorship of his IN
happy country. His Punishment and
disgrace simply afford him secu ire
opportunities to mature his plans.
1t is well known that he is even now
contemplating another revolutionary
stroke at n early day; but, with
mo re than his usual adroitness, be
has succeeded in keeping from the
Government the particulars of his
movements. It's very probable that
he will make his descent on Mexico
at Acapulco "a point farthest from
the suspicious Of his enemies. /
know that such was his intention, al
though circumstances may lead him
to change his plans. 4 house has
bee built there and furnished fol
him by one Of his friends; and many
things useful for a campaign are land
ing there daily. The day l left ]
saw $50 or 200 camp kettles going
into the warehouses of the leading
Santa Annaists there, and many
bales Of blan kets and clothing. You
need not be surprised if you heal
stirring news from that quarter soon
All the officials in that State
(Guerrero) are Santa Anna friends
General Alvarez, the Governor, is al
most omnipotent. a firm friend Of thE
great conspirator, and bitter enemy
Iof President Arista. He has plentJ
Of arms, and can call into the felt
1900 Indians at any moment.
The government is almost powerles
against him, as the soldiers from tn,
more northerly part of Mexico ''cav,
i'm with the dysentery as soon a
they get into Alvarez's mountains
All the military officers of the dill
ierent stations in the State are ar
pointed by his influence, and are hi
creatures, and of course Santa Ar
nalsts. | suppose Santa Anna $ RAJ
