Your State, which had her fortune invested in
lands and bondmen, has become in proportion

The Richmond Wing impudently ascribcs
the good qualities of the colored people in Vir-
ginia to their training while in slavery. How
readily these poor rhapsodists catch at every
straw that can be made to sustain fiimsy ex-
cuse for their idiocy, The miserable scribblers
