COmIcaI legislation in Virginia.

The Legislature sitting in Richmond is discussing
with much animation proposition to reunite West
Virginia with old Virginia. The latest phase of
the subject is the following appeal gravely offered
in the Richmond House Of Delegates las. week by
Mr.. Hansbrough, of Stafford county:
Resoiued. That the Committee on the Union Of
Eastern and Western Virginia be respectfully re-
quested 10 examine into the propriety Of adopting
the following appeal
Sometimes in the course of human events trivial
circumstances separate good friends; and, in the
case of Abraham and Lot, one goes to the right
hand and the other departs TO the left; bu: when
passion subsidies and reason is enthroned the
brance Of ancient friendship prompts the kindly
feelings Of nature to reconciliation and mutual
esteem Il grioves US that there has been separation
between us and our western brethren. Bound to-
gether by common blood common language, and
the iron hooks of interest what shall separate US
And bound together by mutual limits who shall
separate what God has joined together Shall
poverty, shall tribulation shall the sword tear
sssunder from our brethren? And how shall We
divide the glory of the Old Dominion You are
700 brave and generous to require US in bondmens ;
key, to say, Pray, master, forgive u.s. And we
ask 10 submission, no humiliation from you; but
with outstretched arms we invite you to our affeC-
tionate and tender embraces And behold how
good and pleasant it is for brethren dwell togeth-

NATIONAL BANKs-A few days since we
noticed, says the ChrOnlcat and Sentinel, the
winding up Of some National Banks. From
an official source we gather the annexed in
formation in regard to these institutions;
\ National Bank cannot fail to pay its is
sue because it is based upon deposit Of
Government Bonds in the Treasury of the
United States. For every one hundred dol
lars deposited with the Treasury in the Five
Twenty Bonds, bearing six per cent inter
ests per annum in gold, payable semi-annu:
ally-the Government issues to the banking
association ninety dollars in National Bank
bills, holding in reserve ten per cent. to Sc
cure the note or bill holdcr-in case of the
bank failing to redeem. And when a de
posit Of tcn-forty bonds is made, the Gov
ernment only issues eighty seven and half
per cent to the Banking gassociation-hold-
ing in reserve twelve per cent. over the is
sue. The Government holds the plate from
which the bills are printed, and in no case
can there be an over issue. Each Stock
holder is liable for double the amount Of his
stock
Our readers will perceive that the bills of
the National Banks are good under all cir
cumstanceS--whether the bank is in full op-
GRAFTON or is in process Of being wound up.

Touching Appeal.

aye children of moderate drinking pa
rents children of so many hopes, solici-
tudes, and prayers: the sin of drunkenness
apart, here are two classes Of men, and tlco
plans Of life, each proffered to your appro-
baton, and submitted to your choice: The
one class use intoxicating liquor, moderate
ly indeed, still they use intoxicating liquor
in some Of its forms; the other class use it
in none of them. The one class, in conse-
quence of such use, furnish all the drunken
ness,-three- fourths of all the pauperism,-
ive-sixths Of all the crime under the accu-
mulating weight Of which our country
groans-pay an annual tribute TO muscle
and sinew, in intellect and virtue, ay, in the
souls Of men,--a mighty tribute, embodied
in the persons of inebriates taken from the
ranks of moderate" drinkers, and deliver
ed over to the Jail, the madhouse, the house
of correction, and the house Of silence.
The other class pay no such tribute !;
not even portion Of it. Other burdens Of
the community they share indeed, in COM
mon with their brethren; portion Of their
earnings goes [unjustly] to provide and fur
nish those abodes of woe and death which
Intoxicating liquors crowd with inmates
but the inmates themselves are all trained
in the society instructed in the maxims,
moulded by the customs, and finally deliv-
ed up from the ranks Of the opposite party,
the drinkers.
Now beloved youth, which Of these two
modes Of life will you adopt? To which Of
these two classes will you attach yourselves?
Which think you, is the safest, most noble,
patriotic, Christian? In one word, which
will insure the purest bliss on earth and af
ford the fairest prospect of admission into
heaven ?-ReU. Dr. Mott

Preserving Pork,

The season is at hand when many persons
will be called on to salt their pork, and some
Of them will be at a loss as to how to do it.
An article is going through the papers, sug-
costing that the right way is to put TWEEN
ty-tive pounds Of salt to the barrel: then
make a brine and put on cold After it has
become picked through, scald, skim the
brine and turn it on hot, as it has settled.
scald as often as it is bloody"
There.it is, rerbatim ct Liberatum Just as
clear as mud, and enough to distract any
one who has a barrel Of pork at stake.
Nothing is more simple than to salt n
barrel Of pork SO that it will keep forever,
aught we know, if you don't eat it,
In the first place, have q good hog, dress
him in a cool time and let him hang until
the whole carcass is cooled throughout
Cut out the fat pork neatly, taking away
every piece that is bloody, or wash out the
blood clean with cold water. The strips
should be three or four inches wide. Lay
them in 4 cool place each piece by itself for
twenty-tOur hours then sprinkle the bottom
OF perfectly sweet barrel, half an inch
thick, with what is called coarse-tino" salt.
and on that hay strips Of pork, with the
skin next the barrel, and SO continue until
the bottom is entirely covered. Pack it
closely. Then cover that layer with half
an inch Of salt, and so continue until the
barrel Is nearly full; coverthe top with salt,
and then lay clean strip of board over it.
and on that a stone sufficiently heavy to
keep the whole from rising. bet it stand
twelve hours, and them fill the barrel with
clean, cold water.
We have practiccd this method for twen-
ty years and have not lost a round Of pork
1t is ''as sweet as nut, and gives an ex-
cellcnt relish to many kinds of food in cook
ing that nothing else will.
If lean pieces are desired they should be
most carefully washed before being salted
In taking the pork from the barrel, no
piece must ever be allowed to float above
the brine, as it viii be likely TO ruin the
whole.
If the weather is a little warm when the
pork is salted, it will be well to take it out
in April wash the barrel, scald the brine,
and when cool, return it, and add new salt
as the pork is laid in.-Nlar England Farm

AGRICULTURAL SOCTETIEs.-There is one
thing our citizens should do, and our State
should act on We should havean hgricultu-

an Agricultural Society, and at Nashville the
State Agricultural Society should lave a

make us better acquainted with each other
Il would develop the resources of the State.
Tennessee, with its mines, its soil, its coal,
its beautiful wales and towering mountains;
It's navigabie streams and salubrious climate
its fruitful fields and grand old forests
can be brought prominently to the notice of
capitalists by State Fair. Interest capital

and upon all the sparkling streams, little
houses are built, and presently the hamlet
grows into a village, the village to a town,
The town to city We must print and
publish. Men must be informed that we
are glad to see them and welcome them.
There must be no halfway measures. When
we do a thing, let US do IL with a
zest. Let US tell our Northern neighbors
that everybody is welcome in Tennessee.
We do not ask your politics. We do not
care to know what side you fought on, and
