And we believe that we speak without exag-

there is not family in Virginia which would
not gladly, and even gratefully, throw open its
doors TO convalesoent soldiers from the hospi-

was contefFing favor upon thom far mora
than upen the guest. We have never heard OF
read Of such spirit as now actuatos the peo-
pie of Virginia aud Of The whole South. No
man conf Iers his property or his life his own.
All belongs to the country. Now, it remains
for the authorities to give approp rate and aae-
