Virginia, the most ancient and highly
favored American colony OF Great Britain
has nearly the same area that New Eng
land has and is vastly superior to it in
climate, roll, productions, and natural
advantages, still the total value Of pro-
perty in New England is nearly three
times that Of Virginia New England
has more improved land the cash value
of her farms is greater; the value of her
farming implements is nearly double; her
manufactures are eight times greater,
and her population more than double
thatof Virginia. Now why should these
things be? Virginia, recollect, has been
controlled for more than q generation, by
Southern abstractionists, and here is the
result of their policy. Its results show
thatit must be radically wrong. Vir-

policy which now controls her will sink

On the days when gin was not sin,
Nor cocktails brought court marials.
