The Virginia Index

We have received the first two nos of
this new Journal, just started in Richmond
under the auspices Of B. NJ. Dewitt, Esq,
this Of itself would be guaranty enough Of
the ability with which we believe the paper
will be conducted, but when we take into
consideration that there are two more as his
aids with head and hand we do not fear or
hesitate to think that it will be well worthy
Of support from the party. which it advo-
Gates. Mr.. DeWittis assisted by Mesrs.
Ellis and Goods, both ofwhcm we learn are
practical printers. It is useless for us to
say that we wish it much success and shall
use our efforts in its behalf. Mr.. Dewitt
has served his party to long and made him
self to popular in his editorial endeavors,
for them to let his new Journal languish.

New Firm.

We would most respectfully call the at
tention Of the public to the advertisement of
Messrs: P. H. Trout & Co., dealers in
Drugs, Medicines, Oils, &C., &c. Mr..
Trout is young gentleman of remarkably
steady business habits and has rendered him
self highly efficient in his occupation, by
an actual and active experience Of eight
years, all Of which have been spent in this
town, so that the public now know him and
have long ago learned to appreciate him.
Of his Partner, DR.. T. Fl. Kinney, it is
entirely unnecessary for us to speak, he be-
ing too well known in the community. We
bespeak for the new firm large share Of
public patronage, to which are merits will
undoubtedly entitle them.

We the undersigned having learned with

of the Supreme Court If Appeals for the

knowing that an election to fill the vacancy
will shortly take place. therefore, As citi-
zens within said section, we are DESTROYS
that that the vacant Office shall be filed BY
some gentleman worthy to occupy the place
lately filed by our deceased friend We
have been casting round in our minds, and
have come to the conclusion that there is
no gentleman within tie limits Of this Sec
ton, SO well qualified 10 discharge the i'm

Thomas J. Niche, Esq, Of the town Of

To the People Of the Third Judicial Sec
ton Of Va.

The numerous and aattering calls made
upon me from various parts Of this Judicial
Section, to permit my name to be used as a
candidate for the seat on the Bench Of the
Supreme Court Of Appeals, made vacant by
the death of the lamented Samuels, have re-
ceived as they deserved, my anxious con-
sideration, and ] use the earliest occasion,
after concluding what duty required, to res
pond.
/ do not pretend indifference to the high
est honor that could crown my professional
labors. On the contrary, my heart over
flows with grateful thanks to the kind and
partial friends who deem me worthy to ill
the distinguished Office in question.
Yet after the most anxious considera-
ton Of the surrounding circumstances, /
have concluded that public duty permits me
in this instance to obey the promptings of
priuate inclination in declining the pro.
posed honor. HA
This course I the more readily adopt
when | consider the eminent legal ability
which adorns every part of our section,
ready and willing to incur the labors and
responsibilities from which am dis
posed to shrink.

Review Of Trade.

The Richmond Wing Of the 18th inst. !,
has lengthy report Of the trade of Rich
mond, for the past year ending Dec. 30th,
1858. It exhibits gratifying increase in
this, the capitol of the Old Dominion, and
if our merchants will extend to Richmond
that patronage, which she asks at their
hands, and indeed, to which she has right
from her many advantages, and the induce
ments she offers, but few years will elapse
before she will be able to compete with the
northern cities in her imports, as she now
does in many Of her manufactures. There
is large amount of capital in Virginia,
which would be invested there, if dealers
would for moment reflect and find it to
their interest to deal there. It is the duty
Of every man in making his purchases,
to 60 where he can buy the best goods for
theleast money, but if Richmond offers equal
advantages with other cities. then she GER
tainly has the right to demand our trade. -
Why should she be EubServleDt to New
York and Philadelphia, as importing cities
Surely, with the advantages Of one Of the
finest harbors in the world, through which
to import, she can very safely compete
with either of those cities. The idea
is fast becoming obsolete that nothing good
can be obtained from our own importing
cities, and when this error shall be eradica-
ted, we may expect to see the cities Of Rich
mond, Alexandria, Norfolk, Petersburg,
Washington and Baltimore, taking rank
among the great cities Of this continent
It is not in our power to lay this report be-
fore our readers, but hope our business men
will procure extra copies Of the Wing and
read it for themselves.

Coast. In the same message 1t asks Con-,
gross for meaey to purchase the island Of
Cuba. $50, 900. 900 win be needed for
this last named purpose. and an untold
amount for the FIRST, but members Of Con-
gress and grave Senators take these propo-
sitions under consideration, and talk about
the purchase Of Cuba and the Pacific rail-
road, as if they had 800. 100000 in the
Treasury, when really We are in debt TO-
100000 This is then, the kind of re.
form we are to have, - this the retrench-
ment SO much talked Of! They are trying
to stop the little drops that trickle from the
reservoir, while the food-gate is open. and
the sluice is running out unimpeded.
These are the drains which exhaust the
treasury, and not the little drops, which are
paid out for necessary expenses. But it ia
necessary that we reform, and if these small
expenses are found superduous, then cut
them off likewise. = sss
What we have said above in regard to
the Pacific railroad and the purchase Of Gu
ba, might be construed into opposition to
these great and important objects. But We
conceive from pre- expressed opinions on
these subjects, that we are understood in
regard to them, but for fear Of being mis-
understood we will reiterate them.
By every right and justice, as well as
for our national safety, and tho preserva-
tiou ofour ascendancy apd power in Central
and our future requirements in S'th Ameri-
ca, we believe that Cuba ought to be ours ;
by purchase, if it can be purchased without
mourning heavy national debt; by con-
quest, if after fair and just offers have been
made for it, We cannot get it. We hold
that it ought and should be our property,
though Spain and France and England
unite to oppose it, and this too. for reasons
too obvious to require repetition here.
In regard to the Pacific railroad, we think
it "a great national highway, binding to-
gether our eastern and western shores, fur
nishing facilities for commerce and inland
trade, which could never be reached or de-
veloped by other means, or which other
means would fail to develop to the extent Of
this national work. It is besides a national
safeguard, for in case Of invasion on either
shore, troops could be conveyed 50 rapidly
and SO quietly, that no great damage coI..Ss
be done on either side Of the continent be-
fore they would arrive. Thus would it be
a double working advantage.
These are then, our views on the subject,
but we would have our representatives wait,
until the revenue has been made equal to
the expenditure, and we can see some way
in which to pay for those things, without
going heels over head in debt.

CLAIMS THE RIGHT OF PARTNERsn1p.-
The London Times Of the 9th, publishes in
its city article, an anonymous letter from
Washington, in regard to the Presidents
views Of the Mexican question, and prefaces
the letter with remarks, condemning both
Mr.. Buchanan's and Mr.. Douglass pro-
jects for absorbing Mexico, and insisting
that Great Britain, on account Of the large
debts due her from Mexico, ought to be ad-
mitted as partner in the proposed protec-
torate and sdismemberment Of Mexico
St0tes. 4s.g is47
Let her come in, and well go it under the
firm Of the United States & Co. She fur
nish the capital, and we do the fnanciering
Guess she'd dissolve soon. IS .=.ssH

aud for want Of little II that public spirit
and energetic striving for things beneficial
to the community which have characterized
us ID times past, and given us the proud
position among the counties ofthe State
which we enjoy? We trust and believe
that the response Of the liberal and public
spirited men Of Augusta to the appeal which
will be made to them will put to rest all
doubt on the subject and give assurance Of
success to noble enterprise.
