PETERSBURG, December 10, 1867.
The town was taken quite by surprise
this morning at the sudden unexpected
announcement of the resignation OF the
Rev. John Cosby as rector of st. Paurs
church. Nothing Of the kind had been
whispered among the congregation, or
even suspected, and the resignation was
only considered and accepted by the yes
try last night at q late hour; Mr: CosoyS
wife has remained at her iather's IN NECK
lenburg, nearly the whole time OF MS pas
torship in this city, being too feeble in health
to undertake the duties OF domestic life /;
and the long and painful separation from her
is the reason assigned for relinquishing his
position. A very general regret is ex.
pressed at his retirement. He also is a
native Of Mecklenburg. In his youth, it
is said, he labored under influences not
altogether propitous for the early develop.
ment of his character, but from the force
of his talents he was not long in acquiring
distinction; and though yet young man.
he was unanimously called by the St. Paul's
congregation to the high position he has
Just vacated, as the successor OF the Rev.
Mr.. Platt. AS man, Mr.. Cosby is emil
nently genial; as preacher, his powers OF
rhetoric are of superior order. AS the
successor Of Mr.. Platt, a less eloquent man
might not have been SO highly favored as
to be placed in his seat. There is ye
no rumor designating the person who will
be called to take his place. But as the
clergy Of Petersburg are distinguished fol
their ability, we may presume that to none
else than a frst-clasS preacher will an In
yitation be extended.
A man by the name of Upshur was ar
rested by the police here to-day on suspicion
ofbeing the person who stole pair of oxen
in DinWiddie about three weeks ago. The
animals were traced to Manchester, and
found in the possession of Messrs. Crawley
g. RAIN, who had purchased them, but
gave them up as soon as they were identi.
fed By the owner.
Patrick Curtis, the man who was shot
by negro on Saturday night, is still alive
and was thought to be somewhat easier
this morning. he is in very critical con
dition.
The Petersburg delegation to The Con
servative Convention will 60 over to Rich
mond tonight in full force. have not
list of the names at hand, or else woul'
give it. Suffice it to say that the city vii
be very ably represented. 5.

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.
Present Generation of Young Men not Quail
fed for the Present ENiSency-Necesslty o.
MANY Small Farmers 10 Supersede the Plan
1ution System.
PETERSBURG, December 6, 1867.
The present generation of young men II
Virginia have not been brought up to those
habits Of steady industry enabling them to
dig with their own hands the treasures con-
tanned in the soil. The altered circum-
stances of the country, therefore, find
them totally unprepared to act the part
which those circumstances imperatively
REQUIRE. Hence we see many Of them
t1ocking to the cities in search OF more
easy avocations, or moving OIL to other
and younger States to seek their fortunes.
A few stand by the old homesteads, and
summsnirg to their aid something of that
resolution which impelled them to bravethe
hardShipS of four yeals' military service,
have gone to work with viii. These are al
most the only persons that have made
money by farming this year, and they are
laying the foundations Of future fortunes
in case the country should recover from
its disquieted condition. All the fail
ures Of the present year-and they
have been jnnumerable-are to be
traced to adherence to the old syS-
TEN of agriculture that is to say, by
working number Of hands, and extend
ing their labor over wide surface. The
only difference is that the labor is now
hired instead of being compulsory. The
fruits are perhaps not so great as formerly
from the same amount Of labor but had
not the slaves then been eXchangeable for
money, the losses Of cultivation would
probably have been nearly as great as they
are now under the general features Of the
old system.
The results of this year demonstrate one
thing to certainty-that cotton cannot be
cultivated after the present fashion, and
at present prices, except at loss. Such
are the accounts that come up to US from
every one Of the cotton States. Does II
therefore necessarily follow that it must
be discontinued Not wholly; but the
plantation system must fall into disuse
If small farmers will take it up-and we
do not yet see what other crop is to take
its place-there may be money IN IL al tel
cents q pound. The farmer ana MS sou
will be obliged to do their own work.
large crops are ever grown again, ~ Cal
only be after the country mas peen olVlue'
and sub. divided into hundreds OF thousand
of small tracts, and occupied by indus
trious immigrants bringing their own laoo
with them, If the negroes would settle
down to steady work they might do grea
deal; but this is no part OF their charac
ter. and no sane man can believe for mo
ment that they will ever add anything,
left to themselves, to the wealth of tn
State. They are potent to destroy, Blu
impotent to build up.
The moral of all this is, that parent
must henceforth bring up their sons t.
work. Labor should cease to be looked
upon as degrading; on the contrary,
should be regarded as honorable above al
things. No young man can have fortune
that will stand him in better stead thai
industrious habits and good education.

v;l, he son,ewhat of a shock 10 the

rissey, will be somewhat of shock to the
sturdy yeomen Of the Granite State.
II is very gratifying to northern man
in finding that his native State is not dis
graced by representation in these Destruc-
tive Conventions at the South, and espe-
cially that from the old Keystone State
from which has come the greatest num-
Der of settlers to Virginia-not q single
one has yetchanged his race and heart by
changing into negro.
