Ba,ley,s English Grammar.

The National Mteuigencer has an extended
and very favorable notice of the English Grammar
Just published by the Rev. r. w. BAILEY, late
of this place. 1t says Mr.. B. evidently possesses
the qualifications for the proper performance of his
task in high degree, land has discharged the high
est and most useful function of the grammarian
with intelligence and fidelity. "lie has given
u.s." says the Htelligencer, ga grammar which
does all that, in our opinion, grammar can DO J!
it furnishes source Of authoritative if not final
appeal on nearly every important difficulty in the
language, to which person in doubt as to the
grammatical propriety of certain expressions can
refer with as much confidence as he would to a
court of educated men. His book will not teach
the ar: of speaking and writing correctly to him
who now murders the Peoples English but it
will, if faithfully studied, discipline his mind and
resolve his doubts on nearly all obscure points re
specting which the authority of established prac-
tice and good usage are themselves at fault or va
rance. English grammar, for the English learner,
can do no more"

Richmond Mercantile Market.

We are pleased to learn from our country mer-
chants who have returned, that very many ofthem
made their fall purchases entirely in Richmond
They seem satisfied that if they had "gone far
Their" they might have fulfilled the proverb by
"faring worse" The Richmond houses cater es-
pecially for our country merchants, besides it is
to their interest to plesse-both to win and to re-
tain the State trade. Hence they will be found
more accommodating and more likely than North
ern houses to form permanent relations of trade and
friendship with Southern dealers. The Northern
salesman feels that each bill no sells Southerner
may be the last, therefore he finds it not against
his interest to shave all he can at the time
There is no reason in the nature of things why
Richmond should not furnish the staple merchan-
disc of our country as cheaply Northern cities,
especially with tho saving of carriage in favor Of
Richmond. All that is necessary is for our mer-
chants to give assurance of patronage to induce
Richmond to increase her stores and furnish all
the advantages Of variety Of assortment and Of
competition as the Northern markets Let the
press of the State continue to call attention to the
fact, and this result will be all the sooner reached.

Mr.. Ererett,s Letter.

While the Richmond Enquirer is endeavoring
to disparage the recent letter Of Mr.. EvRRETT to
Lord JOHN RUSSELL, it is pleasing to observe that
some Democratic papers, equally respectable. do
ample Justice to that distinguished statesman al
though he is Wing, The Washington Senti-
mel says
Mr.. Everett's reply TO Lord Johns despatch
will be found in another column of cur paper.
No longer invested in the robes of office, Mr..
Everett writes rs one private gentleman to an
other His first letter, written when he was Sec
rotary of State, and giving in a mastery manner
the reasons of our government for declining to join
England and France in the Trpartite treaty added
greatly to reputation already high. 1t was one
of those performances which, elected by an emer-
gency, will sometimes, in moment, make man
famous As literary composition. it dehes crltl-
cism as political state paper, few can equal 1t.
II adorned our literature, whilst it illustrated true
American diplomacy.
Shortly after writing it change in the admin
istration sent Mr.. Everett into retirement, and
nothing was heard from Lord John Russellon the
subject until recently, when his dispatch made Its
appearance 1t was this dispatch that drew from
Mr. Everett the communication we publish to-
day, which is well worthy its precursor from the
State Department. that was received with so
much applause. Lord Johns facts are turned a
gainst him, his arguments refuted, his sophistrles
exposed, his want of courtesy rebuked, and all IN
the most humane, polished, and elegant manner.

state Agricultural Fair.

JONI ID. IMBoDEN, Esq, of this county, has
been appointed one of the Marshals for the State
Fair. It may be Of advantage to our farmers who
expect to attend, or to have stock for exhibition,
u have acquaintance with the officers of the Fair
in case of any trouble it is well to have ga friend
at Court"
Augusta has been complimented in the number
of Judges and officers of the Fair selected from her
people, and we hope she may justify the compli-
ment in the number of members and the quality
and quantity of stock aud articles sent to Rich
mOnd on the first of November. Ample provision,
and well perfected arrangements have been made
for accommodating everything sent for exhibition.
Five hundred stalls, and other room in the same
liberal proportion, are already prepared, and PROV
ender in abundance will be supplied free Of charge
f,r the stock on exhibition. 1t is recommended,
however, that all stock should be broke to the hal
ter, and hand should accompany to take special
care Of it, if requiring particular attention The
officers and agents of the Society, if notified will
give any personal attention which may be desired,
at the Depots Of the Railroad.
This Fair will undoubtedly be the greatest ies-
tiyal to which the farmers of Virginia have ever
treated themselves At least 10000 farmers are
expected to DO present The hosPltalltles ofthe
generous city of Richmond have been cordially OF
fered in advance to all who may attend. Our
seighbor county OF Albemarle, We understand, is IN
high gfee in anticipation of real farmers frollc,
and will pour down torrent of visiters to tbs
Fair. We hope to SEQ the Empire county" ae
well represented.
All Farmers DESTROYS of attending, by paying
two dollars to NICHOLAS G. KINNEY. Esq, will
receive certificate of membership in the State
Society, and be entitled to free passage for them
selves and stuck over the Central Railroad, and
also to free access to the exhibition at the Fair at
oil times.

Rai1rond Convention.

The following has been handed to us for publ
cation. Other editors in the Valley are requested
TO copy:
Upon consultation amongst the friends of the
measure assembled at the Federal Court in Staun-
ton, on the LIST of October, it is proposed to hold
a Convention on Monday the 9TH day of No
vember next, at the town of Stanton, to adopt
such measures as shall be most likely to secure
the extension of the Manassas Gap Railroad to
some point on the Lynchburg and Tennessee
Road. All who are interested in securing for the
Great Valley of Virginia a continuous improve
ment throughout its whole length, are cordially
invited to cooperate with US by sending Dele

The Alexandria Standard.

We are pleased to add to our exchange list the
Alexandria Standard, which is edited with much
courtesy and ability by our friend and kinsman
Mr.. GEO l.. GORDON. The article in recent
number of the paper to which the pindicator in
vites our attention, had already met our eye
The Standard is opposed to the introduction of
political prescription into Internal Improvement
companies, but thinks the Wings are not guiltless
in the premises. 1t says Mr.. Price was the Wing
candidate before the Democrats had made any
nomination for Commissioner Of the Board OF Puo
lie Works The Standard surely forgets that
Mr.. PRICE was not brought out until the Demo-
Gratis had called a Convention to nominate party
candidate, and she Enquirer had announced that
the office would be ga political machine"

At the last session ofthe Legislature an ACT
was passed incorporating company under the a
boye name with capital of not less than Soo,O00
nor more than S2,0OO,O0O, and the right to pur-
chase and hold lands not exceeding 5000 acres,
with the nominal rights and privileges of not mure

fsttering reports of their mineral wealth. The
coal is found in four veins Of from ten to four feet
thick, water free, and of the finest variety Of An
thracite, containing on analysis % per cent. OF

rich strata of iron ore, of the finest quality upon
the lands, and which may be worked by the COM
pany to great advantage.
The coal fields are distant from Staunton about

distance. The Company contemplate making
railways from their lands to connect with the Cen
