small degree to the comfort, enjoyment and
interest of the visitors, while many other
gentlemen have added to the numbers as
well as the interest of theparty. We cannot
refrain from giving expression to the hope,
that the pleasure manifestly experienced, by
all who participated in the expedition, and
the favorable opinion SO frequently uttered
of the character and capacity of the country,
will not fail to bear substantial fruits, either
in the shape of purchases by gentlemen of
this party, or by directing the attention of
other foreign capitalists to State which we
sincerely believe to be unsurpassed in the adj
vantages it offers to those seeking safe and
proftablei for their means.-Lyncls-

and the South, escaping the prolonged and
rigorous winters of the former, and the equal
ly prolonged and parching summers of the
latter-with a benignant and salubrious CHI
mate, a generous soil, exhaustless mineral
wealth, boundless water power, navigable
rivers reaching up to the very centres of pro-
dnction, the finest harbor on the continent,
extensive lines of railway miraculous medici-
nal springs the most charming scenery, the
most delightful homes, cultivated society,
illustrious traditions, almost every neighbor-
hood furnishing material for history or food
for poetry and romance-and whether to the
man of Drawn in quest of labor, the man of
business in search of fortune, or the man of
means longing for easeand happiness; wheth
er to the European or American, the man
from the North or from the South, from the
East or from the West, Virginia offers more
to attract and less to repel than any equal
area of this continent certainly, if not of
the world. The day is at hand we believe,
when these immense advantages will tell.
One malign influence, our relations with the
Federal Government, only remains and that
our people may and will soon remove.
The day that sees our political troubles all
put to rest will be day of resurrection to
cid Virginia. What she has been we know.
Great in soul, great in moral attributes, great
in the purity, the genius, the heroism, the
magnanimity that illustrate her annals. The
past is secure. Its record will last GoD
grant that the virtues which give it all its
sp1endur may last as well, and guide and in
spire the children as they did the fathers.
What Virginia has been we know; but what
she is to be under the Transforming influence
of the new agencies that are now to bear up
on her we may only dimly conceive. Mate
rial forces are for the first time to come ac-
lively into play. Physical development is
for the first time to be attempted under IA
voring circumstances. Industry, enlightened
by education and stimulated by the prospect
of gain, enterprise guided by experience and
by capital, all the activities and en-
ergies that spring from the desire of wealth
and the ambition Of success, are to be set in
harmonious motion and controlled to sys-
tematic results. Year by year Virginia will
rise in the national scale. Year by year she
will be richer, stronger and more influential.
That she will reconquer, at some not very
remote day, her old position at the head of
the sisterhood of States is tunlikely.-Ric
