VIRGINIA.

Gov. Pierpoint, in his message to
the Legislature now in session, ex-
presses himself decidedly opposed to
the passage of any law looking to the
reputation of private debts. He
however, makes the following sugges-
tions:
The law passed last winter to stay
executions for debt, will expire on the
first day of January, 1868. In my
opinion, some actor should be taken
at r1present session in regard to
the collection of debts after the expi-
ration of the term prescribed by the
present law in order that those interest
ed may make arrangements according
ly. A lage number of judgments have
been rendered, and if executions shall
be issued as soon as the law expires,
great distress will be brought upon the
numerous debtors in the State. If the
terms of future payment shall be now
prescribed it will give those debtors
time to make arrangements to dis
charge their debts believe the Leg
islature has full power over the sub
ject of priority of liens, and l think
the great error in the law of last win
ter was, in failing to abolish the priori
ty of judgment liens and placing all
creditors upon an equal footing. The
law, as it stands, has only provoked
suits by the more importunate credit
ors. But we must now look to the fu-
ture, and it strikes me that it would be
wise and perhaps the courts and cred |
itOrs would concur in the measure, to |
direct the further stay of executions
upon the payment by the debtor of the
interest and twenty-five per centum of
the principal within ninety days from
the first day of January, 1868, and
like sum with the interest each ensuing
year.

We see it stated that the constit-
uents of Massachusetts Congress
man have have had a committee at
work to investigate and report whether
-tAair representative had INDUCED in a
glass of grog, more or less, during a
late stumping tour. Raymond thinks
it would perhaps be as well for soci-
ETY. ifthere were no grog drinking at
all But itcannot surely as yet have
come to this that tee-totalism is to be
made political test.

Until within the last day or two such

after delay of few days, will be for
warded into the interior Of Texas,
where they will be employed as agri-

inr statement: Tie met h0distS organized
Il church here last spring. 1t has now
about twenty members" We understand
the tact to be that the church organized
with about twenty members, and has now
nearly fifty. The mistake was not inten-
tional: but our informant gave the original
for the present number of members The
readers of THE CALEDONIAN will remem-
Der that a little son OF Gilmore Chase of
Concord Corner last July broke one of his

BURNING OF The STEAMER FAIRFAX.
Wednesday night the fine steam ship Fairfax
Of the Atlantic Line, between the District
cities, Alexandria, and N. York, which had
arrived at the eth street, wharfin Washington,
was discovered to be on fire. AS soon as the
fire was discovered, the ship was run up above
the wharf, that the flames might not spread,
to the warehouses. The Union and United
States steamers prevented a very rapid spread
of the flames until the arrival Of the other
steamers, with the aid Of which the flames
were eventually eztinguished, but not until
about two clock this morning. The Fairfax
brought around full cargo Of merchandise
which fortunately had been discharged. A
portion of the furniture and some Of the person
al effects of the captain and crew were destroy
ed. It is yet uncertain as to how the IRE orlgl-
mated. Captain Winters states that it was
first discovered in the engine room, and that
at the time full watch was on duty. The
Waterman states that three men went on board
the vessel about niue . clock and that be took
them to belong to the crew, but the crew state
that none of them were off the vessel last night,
and it is thought by some that these. men set
FIRE to the ship. The inner works of the vessel
were almost entire burnt out, but the hull was
not damaged. The loss is estimated at about
$4,000. The Fairfax was one of the best
steamers of the line, and was elegantly fitted
up and furnished for the passenger business.
She was valued at $4,000. = Wash. Star
