their religious beliefs from the writings,

OF common religious belief disposes

State Temperance Convention.


I The advocates Of a prohibitory liquor
law in the State Of Virginia, met in Con.
vcntion at Charlottesville, on Wednesday
the 81 instant. Delegations from twenty
seven counties. and several Of them large,
were in attendance, and there was much
Of business talent, as well as zeal and
energy in the cause, manifested by the
members Of the body. As We intend 10
publish the proceedings in detail when
they come TO hand, we shall only state at
present that an ef1icisn, plan Of operation
was devised for the ensuing campaign,
Of which the outlines are as follows:
1. The organization Of an Ani-Lieensc
Lar League in every county in the State,
TO be composed OF all who pledge them
selves to vote and use their influence in
favor Of a prohibitory law.
2. The appointment Of four Agents, or
Speakers. Zone for each Of the four great
divisions Of the State who are 10 hold
public meetings al every accessible point,
TO address the people, encourage the ap-
pointment Of local lecturers, and other
wise urge forward the grca! object in view.
8. The appointment, Of q Central Com
mi.tec to supervise and direct the work
A. The appointment Of o committee Of
three to visit Richmond next winter. TO
present memorials and ask for hearing
before tho Legislature.
5. To agitate, aud keep nglia'ing, until
law SURPRISING the traffic in inioxica,-
ing liquors shall be passed.
There are good reasons for believing.
tina: with proper exerlions on tho par, Of
every true friend Of the cause, from this
time until next Spring, the much needed
prohibitory law may be passed before the
close Of the next session Of the Legsla-
,urc.

MERIT NEGLEcTED.-Greeley, of
the New York Tribune, in common
ting upon the Dinner given by the
Directors of the Crystal Palace to
President Pierce. the members of his
Cabinet, and other invited guests,
gets off the following quain, but just
criticism, upon what seems to have
been, to say the least, very singular
omission on the part of the Speech
makers. He says:-Com. Reg.
ave sat close by the two most en-
inent men in the room, the occasion
considered. We allude to Messrs.
Christensen and Gildcmeister, the Ar
chi,ec,s of the Crystal Palace-the
men whose genius planned and super
yised it from floor TO dome. AS near
ly everything under heaven was in
,roduced into the political harangues
of the evening, we thought that by
some stray chance the names Of these
eminent and splendid artists might
be mentioned, but no more notice
was taken of them than if they had
been two hod carriers. The reason
was, they were neither Generals, Co.
lonels, Captains, Lieutenants, Judges,
congressman, ofiice.huntcrs Or quacks
but simply creative artists.

ment of New York in the Nineteenth

One.ten,h Of the entire crop in this part

Of harvesting, in Eastern Virginia, is in
