VIRGINIA AND CoLoNIzATIoN.-Itm may not be
generally known to our readers that Virginia is
the leader in the of African Colonization yet
such is the fact. We stated some weeks ago tina,
the Colonization Society of Virginia sent 273 emf.
grants to Liberia in 1854, being nearly five times
more than were sent by all the non-saveholdina
States together. The 273 emigrants from Virpinis
were distributed among the counties as follows:
Alexandria 6; Amherst 18; Manchester N: King
George 13; Nansemond 16; Henrico 80; Madison 9;
Petersburg e. Norfolk l; Richmond l3 Fauouier
"a; Loudon 12 Portsmouth 49, Botetourt IA; Jeffer.
son 4, Big Lick 8; Berkeley 8; Hampshire 9; Rock
bridge 9; Princess ANN
From Eastern Virginia 229. From Western Vir
ginia 4s.
Since the year 1920, Virginia has contributed to
he population of Liberia 2O93, being nearly seven
mes more than all the -slaveholding States to.
gether. The largest number was sent last year
273 and the smallest in 1885, l. while In 1885, none
were sent. The revenue of the Virginia Coloni-
zation Society for 1854 was $13 OOe; besides which
about o., 600 were received directly at Washington
from Virginia, making the whole sum accruing to
the cause In Virginia, little more than SIS, ,Oo0.-
The non-slaveholding States last year sent So
emigrants and the slave States 495. Thus 1t will
be seen, that while ioud.mouthed fanatics at the
North are making the States ring with their camors
professedy for the benefit Of the negro race but in
reality for the advancement of their own notorety
the South, and particularly Virginia, is quietly
Pursuing course characterized ty true philan-
thropy, which carries with 1t abundant testimony
Of its benefcent results.
