PROGRESS IN VIRGINIA.

The Virginia Agricultural State Fair in
Richmond, now underweigh, proves the
truth of what we have more than once of
late taken occasion to say concerning the
current rapid progress of the Old Domin.
ion, in the various elements of real pros
perity. Never before were such crowds
of people seen there, and never before was
there such a display within Virginia's
borders of evidences of her substantial
improvement in the arts, as we'll as agri-
culture. All public conveyances to the
city for some days past have been crowded
beyond expectation, and the Richmond
hotels, oarding-houses, and indeed, pri-
vate houses are said to be chock full. In
horses, horned cattle, sheep, hogs, fowls,
as well as in machinery, there are many
specimens on the ground equal to any
similar ones ever produced in the United
States. May Old Virginny never tire"
in this commendable race of general i'm
provement, now that she shows that her
heart and soul are, indeed, in the good
cause,

1t is said that there are but seventy six per-
SONS in New Hampshire between the ages of
fourteen and twenty one who cannot read and
write. There are 1000 pupils on the school
lists of the State.
1t is estimated that this present year the
yield Of gold in the world, from all sources,
will amount to 5000 OO, 900. In 1916, the
production of gold in all the mines of the

The Albany Knickerbocker says that thirty
two years ago there were but twenty-five sail
ing vessels on the Hudson river; all the freig
ing business was done by them, the steamboats,
at that time carrying only passengers In
lS48, this number had increased to 8l5; in
1849, $40; in 1850, 667; in 1851, 633; and in
1852, $685. The great bulk of the freighting
business is now done by steamboats, and barges.
The river tonnage has more than doubled in
twelve years. The last FIVE years the increase
has not been so great as in previous years on
account of a large number of canal boats
going through from New York city to the lake
ports.
1t is stated that certain capitalists have
purchased some eleven hundred acres of land
just below the Guyandotte river, in Virginia,
for which they pay SSS,OOO. They contem-

Arthur Stevenson, a confirmed inebriate, in
Concord, Lewis county, Ky, went home drunk
late on Saturday night, and while carslessy
walking about the room with candle in his

Mrs. Stevenson could get out of bed her clothes
were all on fire, and she was burned almost to
death, surviving but few hours. The house
was burned to the ground, with its contents
The old man was going about on Monday, ac-
