EXODUS TO THE WEsr.-On Tuesday last
large number OF citizens from this District,
probably one hundred and fifty, began their
pilgrimage to the Eel Dorado of the West, the
iariamed land of the "lone STAR" While
wishing that prosperity may attend the sub.
stantial, energetic farmers who are thus led
to forsake the homes Of their youth and man.
hood-among them we .court many friends,
and those who were comrades with US in
hours of danger and trial-.we cannot but
deeply regret that the old State is being de-
populated in this wholesale manner. She
needs all the energies and strength of her
sons to recuperate and recover from the losses
of war, and can lily afford to part with those
who were truest and frmest in their allegi-
ance to her fortunes Observation-Disclosures
