Affairs i'm Southwestern Virginia.

NEW YORK, June 16.-The Worlds cor
respondent On q tour of observation of the
condition of the people and country in
Southwestern Virginia, writes that he finds
much poverty, destitution and suffering
The battle-felds and highways of the
armies constitute one vast tract of desola-
ton, and but little has been done'in the
way of restoration. Whilst acknowledge
ing the freedom of their slaves, the late
masters in a Convention resolved that it
would be better for the slaves to remain
with and work for their late masters until
better arrangement could be made; that
they would not employ negro without
the consent of his former owner; that all
civil officers be requested to take the ann
nesty oath, so as to enable them to resume
the functions of their offices, and pledginS
themselves to employ all slaves. who will
properly demean themselves, and refuse
employment to the idle and vicious. ..sls
-ri Lynchburg, though never the scene of
strife, looks shabby enough. There is more
tobacco in store there than in any other city
in the Union, and there is much in the sur
rounding country. Among the people
there are some petty manifestations OF
spite left, but as general rule the fraternity
is more complete than could have been ex-
peSted. The upper classes are moody, 81
lent and sullen. The merchants and small
farmers seem to think their whole course of
reasoning may have been defective. Some
of the more ar1ent rebels are certain if the
North could see the results of its emancipa-
tion policy it would undo 1t. I'D ~ ~

iHE SoLDIERS AND THE LIQUOR SHoPs.-
For a week or more, soldiers have been ar
irving at this point and daily departing for
their homes, having received their pay and
discharge at Camp Chase and Tod Barracks,
yet every citizen will bear witness that
fewer soldiers have been seen lettering
about town than at any former period sin6B
the commencement of the war. While
civilians are daily arrested and fined for
drunkenness and disorderly conduct, it Is
rare, indeed that a soldier is found at the
morning levees of Mayor Bull. ....,
1t may be said that this is owing to the
military order closing the liquor shops,
But such cannot be the case; for The Joau-
nal complains that the liquor shops are not
all closed. We do not know how this IS;
but The Journal probably does, as it posi-
lively asserts that all the places where Ii
quor is sold, are not closed, and hints
strongly at more rigid enforcement of the
order; and this, Notwithstanding the fact
patent to every one that there are no loaf
ing, drunken or disorderly soldiers about
the city, even though, according to The
Journals statement, all the liquor shops are
not closed.
At the time the order was issued The
JJtrnal said there was a military necessity"
for its issue. But experience has proved
that the soldiers, instead of coming to the
city to drink and carouse, remain at their
rendezvous till paid off and discharged,
apd then at the earliest possible moment,
take the cars for their homes. n''3l

CIRcLEvILLE, Feb. 10th. 1863.

The Warm Air Furnace invented and
manufactured by Mr.. Peter Martin, of Gin
cinnati, was put into the Union school
building OF this city in November last, and
thus far it has given entire satisfaction. ., 1t
surpasses other furnaces in the following
important particulars: 1t has, compara-
lively, a greater heating surface; produces
a larger volume of heat with given amount
of fuel; the condition of the air in respect
to temperature, moisture and purity, is SUI
periOr; the admission of cold air, the sup
ply of warm air for the several rooms, and
the fires, are more easily regulated.
To avoid scorching and decomposing the
air, as is done, to some extent, by other hot
air furnaces, and to secure to each room an
abundant supply of pure, fresh air, warmed
to apleasant temperature, as well as to pro-
tect the wrought-iron air-6ues from
the effects of the fire, it is essential that
the warm air-fiues leading to the school
rooms, should beat least twelve
inches in diameter. This will insure the
influx of such a large and rapid current OF
fresh air as to prevent the wrought-iron
tlues from being overheated, and thus secure
the durability of the furnace, and keep the
warm air in healthful condition. 1t is
deemed proper to State in this connection,
that our Board of Education was induced
to order Mr.. Martins Furnace, because two
other furnaces had been previously used in
our school edifice without satisfactory re-
suits, and because, after careful examina-
tion of a large number OF furnaces and
other modes of warming school houses and
other public editices, not only in Western,
but also in Eastern cities. Mr.. Martins was
believed to be decidedly the best.

than enough to last the farmers through the

10000 persons now, and this number will
be increased next winter.
