E We would call attention TO the
sixth annual announcement of this well
known association, which may be found
in our advertising columns. Those who
visit New York city know that the an
nual exhibition Of Paintings and Stalu-
airy by this association is considered one
of the attractions of that city, %compris-
ing. as 1t always does, a large number of
fine and valuable specimens in both of
these departments Of art. These works
are the products of the pencil and chisel
of many of OUT best artists, who compose
this association. The association annu-
ally issue a beautiful engraving of some
celebrated painting, which they send to
each Of their subscribers. They also is
sue the Art formal, aquarterly publica-
ton filled with beautiful plates. and fine
ly printed, which they also send TO their
subscribers. The subscriber also has the
privilege of admission to their gallery,
and besides all, at the close of each year
all the works in the gallery are distribu-
ted to the subscribers by lot, the draw
ing being conducted under the super
vision of men whose names are a sure
guarantee that everything connected with
it will be done fairly and imparlially.-
For three dollars then, the price of sub
scriplioE, the subscriber has free admis-
sion TO the gallery, receives four numbers
of the beautiful Dirt Journal, has a copy
of a splendid engraving, and has a chance
of drawing a prize in the distribution
many of which are extremely valuable.
The engraving for tie present year is en-
titled "Shahespeare and his friends,''
and is one Of the most splendid speci-
mems of the engraver's art we have ever
seen. 1t is about 81 by 81 inches in
size, and is alone worth doub BILE the price
Of subscription. The inducement to sub
scliPtion, then, is very great, especially
in view of the fact that it is giving eli.
enlargement to our own artists. j. S..
WOODWARD, Esq, has been appointed
Honorable Secretary for this county, who
will receipt and forward all subscriptions.
and at whose office or the Guardian of
fee the engraving may be seen. No man
will object to subscribe after viewing the

money, and we hope u county will
number many subscribers.

Of her starving period she suffered in

no movement of the bowels, except OIL
TWO or three occasions. when she was pre-
vailed on to take some cathartic pills.
She would not have taken any medicine,
had not her attendant given her a dozen
pills at a time. She thought that quantity
would put an end 10 her life. She did
not know that all but the requisite mum.

Yesterday, by coincidence or by pre-.

any concert in this thing. or can it be

doubt. it may not be impossible thai
there is design in these simultaneou:

about. they are in our midst. u~ttering
their seditious sentiments and Kissing of
their insulting remarks on our citizens.
Night before last one of these hvenas

that deserved the tar bucket and feather

the city. And yet these things are GO

Gg The Attorney General of Virri

Gv The Attorney General Of Virgil,
MIA in answer to an inquiry of Gov
WISE, has given a written opinion to the
effect that although the National Govern.
ment has the right to carry any kind o
a document through the State, yet it has
no authority to distribute or circulate
documents, or in other words, has nc
right to deliver them from the post of.
fees. He says:
1.-THE circulation of incendiary doc.
uments is prohibited by Virginia there.
fore the United States government has
no right to deliver Northern Abolition
papers in Virginia through its post Off
ces; post masters, being citizens of Vir-
ginia, have no right to deliver incendi-
airy documents sent by mail to their posi-
Offices" All this, we presume, is prelim-
mary to more authorized mail robbing,
such as has been practiced before at the
South. The good democracy of the
South have certainly gone crazy over
