Coon ADvICE.-The New York Herald
gives to Old Virginia the following advice. in
connection with the recent Buckingham Con-
vention. The Richmond Post thinks the ad-
vice first capital-but says, like most
good advice" it is as obvious as remarks on
the weather, and much more easily given than
followed:
ave must admonish the Vifginians and
Southerners generally that conventions, and &c
ports, and resolutions. are not the thing-they
are we'll enough in their way; but it is work,
practical work, which cleaves passage
through the mountains for the locomotive, and
makes the highways of the ocean smooth and
practicable, and regular as clock work-it is
work, genius, capital, enterprise which make
cheap goods and profitable markets, which line
the seaboard with cities and the interior with
busy towns and villages. Resolutions by Virgin
ianS to buy goods of Virginia direct importers,
when they can be had of them as cheaply as
fror New York, will amount to- nothing unless
the Virginia importers are provided with the
facilities for importing as cheaply as New York
ers. Until such facilities are provided, all
Southern commercial conventions must end in
smoke Still, we are gratifed that Old Virgin
ia is walking up, and we hope she will never
tire"

WIN Borrowed NY Umbrella.


A bright round dollar one ! spent,
For an umbrella, which | lent;
And though the fellow really meant,
For such he said was his intent,
Back again to have it sent.
Yet many an anxions hour | spent,
Waiting for that same event;
But wind or weather did prevent,
Or he his promise did repent,
And oft in storm though out l went
And plainly spoke my discomfort,
Yet all in vain was my lament
And so fiery document,
Rich in persuasive agument,
Though very little Establishment,
No doubt to his as.onishment
Through the Office to him went;
When back he wrote that accident,
My umbrella much had rent.
He hoped my heart benevolent,
Would never ask equivalent!
Was ever man so impudeEt?
Or brass so awful evident?
How could i the deed resent?
10 fight | was too corpuleut,
Had | been belligerant,
And myself did content,
In rhyme my anger TO give vent;
Though perhaps not eloquent,
I've told my honest sentiment,
That moneys poorly spent,
To buy umbrellas to be lent.

some small specimens of copper. In the same
