The PARDON BROKERAGE BUsINBss.-
The attempts to stop the disgraceful bust
ness Of pardon brokerage at Washington
have not succeeded; the President has
again made a pause in issuing ~pardons,
and it is reported that he will issue a
general pardon to all but a certain class of
prominent rebels, about a thousand in
number. It is to be hoped that this is
true, on many accounts. General Baker
has lately been setting traps for the pardon
brokers, and has caught several of the
worst Of them in the act. He set one OF
his detectives at work in the disguise Of a
Sou.herner seeking pardon, and a good
looking woman who has had access to the
White House and the Departments, agreed
to obtain a pardon within t~hirty-six hours
for $500 in advance. The pardon was
promised and a receipt given for the
money, and then Baker arrested the wo-
man and compelled her to restore the
money and agree not to visit the White
House again. The shameless creature
has since gone before the Grand Jury and
had Baker arrested for unlawful arrest.
If the case to trial there will be dis
gushing revelations as to the cormorants
who hang around the White House and
extort money from Southerners seeking
pardon.

The indebtedness Of Virginia city
amounts to over $40 on every man,
woman and child residing within the cor
porate limits at the present time. For this
Indebtedness the city has to show, in
property, two engine houses. Three
quarters of the indebtedness is now in the
hands Of parties who paid from 20 to 80
cents per dollar face therefor. Present
holders-with rare and triAing exceptions
of city bonds, never paid over As cents
per dollar face therefor. The city never
realized 10 per cent of the indebtedness, in
any service done for the corporation, or
property obtained. In view of the ap-
palling magnitude of this debt, it is now
proposed to sell the two engine houses !
May not and should not the Legislature
pass a general, peremptorily termed fund
ing bill, and so relieve the people and
place the city finances on a hopeful basis ?

MINES IN rHp OLD SoMn1oN.

HNRrBR's for November contains an
article on old VIRGINIA and her mineral
resources that viii prove very enter tanning
to readers hereabouts. The writer de-
clares that the Old Dominion i the rich
est mineral State in the Union-particu-
larry pitting her resources against Cali
fornia ; attributing her lack Of develop
ment to the la=yciring influence Of slavery.
The writer states, furthermore, that the
mineral wealth of the Blue Ridge and Al
leghany range were known and announced
by distinguished ~geologists at and long
before the discovery of gold in California ;
and that many of these said that the "pio-
neers" of California were making q wild
goose chase to the far West for the pre-
cious ore that sprouted almost at their
doorstep. The article then furnishes an
account Of a visit to some half q dozen
mining localities; where mines were seen
that had been worked since lSS2-'34 but
in such a miserable n as in most in
stances to yield little or 10 return to the
owners Of mines. These mines are a part
Of "Farms," containing from 800 to 900
acres, and well watered-for mill, and
grazing, and general irrigating purposes
so that all the natural conveniences for
entire domestic working Of the ore are a,
hand. 1t is said that out of one Of these
gold mines, in two years, Commodore
Stockton made $25o,Ooo. It is eviden,
that the article is not from the pen Of o
Californian or Nevadan. for in such case
we should have had a more minute and
satisfactory description Of the workings
that have been had on these plantation
orebeds. The single strictly mining fac,
is recorded, that no shafts have been sunk
on any of these mines to a depth of over
seventy feet

"What OF tho Night %

A Southern correspondent hits the ex-
act condition Of the masses Of the South
ern people when he says they are loyal but
not patriotic. They have abandoned Sc
cession ; they believe that the Union is
invincible and perpetual; they felt long
ago that slavery must fall with the con-
federacy, and so acquiesce in the accom-.
plished fact a., q matter Of course, and
without any change Of moral conviction
on the subject. But they do not love the
Union or rejoice in the freedom OF the ne

but all that we should expect. II the
people Of the South honestly intend to be
loyal, to obey the Constitution and the
laws, and to accept the consequences OF
defeat, this gives a sound and safe basis
for reconstruction. They profess all this,
and the President has accepted their pro-
fession as sincere. He could do no other
wise. But Of late there have been indica-
tions that the old secesh leaders are too
much trusted, and are getting control
again. The election Of Worth as Gov

the disposition manifest in Mississippi to
