We are pleased to see it stated in the Lynch
burg News that the enterprising farmers OF
that section, the Piedmont region, and in the
Southwestern portion Of this State, and in
other localities Of Virginia, are assiduousy
devoting their time and energies to the main
objects Of raising large crops of the various
agricultural productions, during the present
year Preparations have been made for the
cultivation of large crops of corn this year, and
more than an average amount of oats has
already been put in the ground The wheat
crop, it is generally conceded, will not prove an
average one, though better supply will be
realized than was anticipated few weeks ago.
The past winter was very unfavorable for the
wheat-much of it was killed by the severe
freezes which occurred during the cold spells,
but what escaped, looks well, and is growing
finely.
The Washington Chronicle turns with con-
siderable ferocity upon Secretary Seward, and
berates him Justify. 1t is amusing to contrast
the tone and manner of the Chronicle towards
President johnson and Secretary Seward, with
what they were few months ago only. And
this, too, when they are only Carrying out the
policy which they announced when they were
the political idols of the Chronicle, to all APP
pearance; but, when, in truth, it isnow mani
fest, the Chronicle was, in Sir Jonah Barring
ton's Language, only buttheripg them up, - in
order TO sslither them down.
The cry for the blood of Jefferson Davis has
been raised again The President is charged by
the Radicals with attempting to defeat or delay
his trial We have seen no evidence that the
President is in any way friendly to Mr.. Davis,
or anxious, at all, to prevent the arraignment
and trial One Of the errors Of his administra-
ton, we have always thought was the Procla-
nation charging completely on the part Of Mr..
Davis and others, with the murder of President
Lincoln. We believe the best men Of the
country now admit this was an error
Wood pulp is now used to large extent in
the manufacture of paper. The success is
great. At some paper mills near Philadelphia
excellent printing paper is now made with so
per cent, of wood pulp. The price Of paper
has reccded cents. per 1b. 1t will have to
recede much more. The paper manufacturers
have, for long time, been grinding and screw
ing publishers, printers, and the public
