aEeulArIOr OF EaIons By LAw.

The Lynchburg Republican strongly opposes the
proposition before the Legislature OF this State for the
regulation Of prices. It argues thus:
The very 6rst effect would be to drive from the State
everything which would command higher price abroad
Suppose we say that calico shall not be sold for more
than two dollars per yard, the consequence would in
ey tably be that no calico would come into this State
aud would be sold at seven aud eight dollars some here
else The same rule would operate in regard to every
o.her mentiOnabe article, and in less thAA a month
alter the passage Of such law toe people Of Virginia
would be unable buy anything without going oulsde
of their State ana paying more than they noS kaVe TO
pay al home. Ger Ainy, none can be more anxious
than ourselves TO see the price Of everything reduced
70 the lowest possible q .ure. We have nearly every
thing 10 buy, and nothing but our labor to sell. Low
prices, therefore, would lut Us admirably. But loy
prices can never be obtained by legislation, and
tuly not By individual STATE legislation. The effect Of
any sueh tempt would be % make everything higher
than AZ present, and absolutely unattSinable.
How, then, are prices TO DO kept down. We an
ssenow as We have uniformly answered. that they can
no be kept dOsn at all while the war lasts and the
ourre0cy increases L is folly 70 talk about t. Reduce
she currency and increase supplies, and prices viii in
eviaby 10 down. But until both of these things are
done prices i'll just certainly 50 up that water
win run down hill Mark our prediction.

Concert for the Rsllef of the Sick and
Wounded of the 13t Regt. Vt. Vols.

The visitors to Mansfield Mountain, stopping
at the Mansfield House in Stove, recently testi-
fed ther appreciation of the gatantry of the l5th
Vermont Regiment, just mustered out of service,
and their sympathy for the eiek and wounded of
said regiment, by giving concert at Stowe, Fhe
proceeds of which we're sent to- C"l. Randall, who
ex pended it for the relief of the needy inyalids of
the regiment. The CO, cert was brilliant atfal1.
attended in the most liberal manaeY by the ever
patriotic inhabitants of Stowe, who were delighted
with most soul-stiTrng and patriotic music select
ed for the occasion. Mr. Amy, nember OF the
Massachusetts Legislature, from New Bedford,
took the management Of the concert, most ably
supported by Miss Houston, of the Old South
Church, Boston, Miss Cummings and Mrs. Mar
cy, of New Bedford, and Mr.. Hodgdon, artist, Of
Boston, and other distinguished visitors to the
mountain. The occasion was very pleasant one,
and although the sum raised is inconsiderable
compared with the opportunities for applying it,
it is, nevertheless, testimonial of the good will
of the donors, and evinoes degree of interest felt
for the gallant men who are suffering of wounds
and sickness, which to them is of more value than
medicine or any other appliances for their res
toration.
