OF TIE RICHMOND DAILY DISPATCH

MADISON Mills, Va. Feb. II, 1853.
Since my last we have had fine snow for sleigh
ing and n good prospect for filling our ice houses:
aud the '.juIeps" won't be so bad after all.
The canvass for county officers has regularly
commenced. Messrs. Taylor and Hill are the can
didates for Clerk, Berry and Aylor for Sheriff and
Finks and Banks for Commissioner of the Revenue.
The general impression is, even in this, the lower
part of the county, that Messrs Thomas Berry,
and Finks will lie elected though they are all from
the upper part of the county, aud their opponents
from this part. IL il free fight, however, and
there is no telling what may be the result, though
the upper boys have the inside track There is
some fun in anticipation
Mr.. Fitzhugh Talaferro has a sword which was
found in cutting drain on his farm, in swamp
about four feet below the surface Of the earth. IL
Is in good state representation, and is supposed to
have been lost during the Revolution, aud as La
fayette was encamped in that immediate vicinity,
it may have been lost by some of his officers.
Yours. &C, MADISON.

On HAPPINESS Nor A PURCHtsABLs COMMODITY. -
John Jacob Aston once observed that man with
SjU0WO (ouIy) might begin t. feel comfortable The
500 of that millionaire, it is said. has an income OF
S3,ND n day, or $l,Ga5tO0 a year. We think the
world could be commenced with less sum than
that. For instance, $4,000 would be a comfortable
sum to begin the world with; or $4,000 or $50 600
Now, there is a chance for either of those handsome
sums by sending to s. SWAN 4 Co.'S legaized Loite-

DESTRUCTION OF ST. ANNE'S CHURCH, ANNAPOLIS.
We regret to learn from Annapolis that the ven
cradle Protestant Episcopal Church of st. Anne.
situated in the centre of the city, was entirely de-
stroyed by fire on sunday night, nothing but the
wallis being left standing. The fire originated
from some defect in the furnaces by which il was
heated. The wind being low at the time the pro-
perty in the vicinity saved from threatened
destruction, with the aid of the citizens and fire
men.
This church was erected about the time Of the
American revolution, and was named after Queen
Anne, who presented it with organ aud a mag
nifcent toned hell, which hung i'll the belfry at
time of the confagraton. The interior of the
church was very large and capables Of containing
numerous congregation. 1t was built by Robert
Key, long a worthy and respectable citizen of An
napOlis, and the bricks of which it was built were
brought from England-tRtt. Amer.
