R. IT. DANIEL.

We are authorized to announce to the voters of
Richmond, Mr.. R. T. DANIEL, as candidate
for the office of CONFERENCE.-The Attorney. We
cannot refrain from expressing the pleasure it at
fords us to make this announcement to our readers
Mr.. Daniels fine legal abilities, and his distin-
guished talent for public speaking, to which he
gives point and finish by knowledge derived from
classical sources, render him before any trbu-
nal, a most formidable opponent. Having just fill
GU inc office OF commonwealth Attorney, for
the county OF Henrco, he is, therefore, peculiar
ly fitted for similar office, now in the gift of the
people of Richmond. la view of the we'll estab-
Hshed reputation of Mr.. Daniel as Il lawyer and
aoVoeate' no feel authorized to speak of him thus
| highly without any Hsparagement of the claims
OF any gentleman who may DC his competitor in
| the election.
| But we desire to call the attention IF our read
ers everywhere, and more particularly the atten-
ton of those who may reside in towns and cities,
to the Importance of filling the offices of public
| prosecutor with gentlemen whose abilities COM
pare favourably with those of the advocates around
them. Towns and cities are apt to be the
| theatres of dangerous crimes, for in them are
| to be found great masses of men and great accu-
mutations OF property. Not only are the object
and subject OF temptation thus brought into close
contact, but in them likew Use are to be found, in
their hungriest aspects and most most malignant
types, the wants and the passions that stimulate
men to the commission of crimes. If the cities
of the earth, which have not inaptly been styled
''centres of civilization and corruption,' are in
deed the theatres for the tragedies fcrime,
in them too are to be procured all the appliances
for its defence and immunity. The talent and
the professional skill that criminals always sum-
mon to theiraid, must be encountered by talent
and profe ssiona skill of as high an order, or they
will be turned loose to continue their trade of rob-
berry and murder. In addition to this, an able
public prosecutor, such one as we have describ-
ed and such one as Mr.. Daniel would be,
would in himself constitute an important proven
tive of crime, by producing upon the minds of the
criminal population reverence for the stern pro-
visions of the criminal law, to be derived from no
other considerations In its important effects
upon the safety aud order of society, the office of
Commonwealth Attorney is scarcely inferior to
that of Judge,

M. KossUTH visited Jackson, Miss. on the 22nd
inst and was received by Governor Foote, in
the House of Representatives. He made a
lengthy speech in reply to the welcome extended
by the Governor. A despatch from Jackson
says:
Little or no enthusiasm has been shown in
Kossuth's regard by the citizens of this place, and
it is not at all probable that his doctrines will be
received with any considerable degree of favor in
Mississippi He will find no material aid here,
that is certain. He is by no means SO fluent in
the use of the English language as he has been
represented by the northern preseason, at all
events he does not show it here. He is spending
the day with Governor Foote, and will probably
leave to- morrow for New Orleans"
We have already announced the arrival of the
distinguished Magyar at New Orleans, where he
was received with cool Indifference. Kossuth's
Western tour has turned out to be failure so
far as material add is concerned; and we ina
CINE he will be unable to realise more than suf-
fcency to pay the expenses of himself and SUITE
during his soJourn in the Crescent City. His
unwarranted attack upon Mr.. Clay has excited
much hostility towards him in New Orleans

THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.
The Point Coupe (La.) Echo of the 18th inst

The Point Coupe Na.) Echo of the 18th inst.
says:
"For the last month the weather has been de-
lightful and very favorable to planters. Vegeta-
ton is extremely rapid, and the young corn and
COTTON present in many places, where they have
already made their appearance, healthy and vigo-
| rous growth, fruit trees, too promise more than
usual YIELD the intense cold ofmid winter having
kept down their sap and prevented their blossom
ing prematurlly The apparently secure state of
our evees and the sowness of the rise of the river
leave the minds ofour planters embarrassed by the
anxietes of the last three years, and permit them
to bestow undivided attention Oh the cultivation of
the soil.''
The Indianola (Texas) Bulletin ofthe 18th inst,
says:
''The crops of the western portion of our State,
never at this season of the year, looked better
than they do now. A large number of planters
have Tor some days past been engaged in scraping
| their cotton; corn is from ten to twenty inches
tall in many fields; vegetables are to be had now,
and for weeks pnst it has been the same in the
greatest abundance, fastened only to the hot
houses of this most delightful climate"
The Loudoun Chronicle says 1.-The late Sc
we're winter has had rather deeterious effect
on the young wheat; but the opening spring. and
the few genial days we have had, have caused the
young blades to peep forth and show considerable
greenness. In our short excursions in the coun-
try we could not help noticing the thrifty appear
ance of that wheat which had been put in with
the drill, and its superiority over that put in by
the ordinary process. There are only one or
two things to keep the drill from coming into gem
eral use. One ofthese is its cost ($l0O) many
farmers not being able to encounter tho expense.
Another reason is that it cannot be worked to adj
vantage rocky orstumpy land.''
