From the .very argent manner in which the
Washington Chronicle is advocating the convic
zion of the President, under the impeachment
charges, ''as soon as possible if not sooner" it
would seem that some slight fear is felt lest
5here may, possible, be hitch in the game.
But as the triggers have all been set, we do
aot think there is much likelihood Of that The
Chronicle may as well let the thing go on quiet

INCREASE OF POPULATION The success OF
our Land Agencies, and the appreciation Of
this section Of Virginia as place of residence,
is becoming more and more apparent. The
number of new faces on our streets daily demon
strate the fact They are coming even from
the Far West, where the frOsts hold high car
nival full half of the year, and where the
cost of feeding stock destroys the profits OF
raising. They are coming from the North too,
many from that section having imbibed the de-
liciousness of our climate during the war, and
many acting upon the representations Of otherF.
The distant South, too, is sending her quota,
impelled to a change of residence by the desire
of getting beyond the control of Cufee in the
political and Dinah in the social circle. Eir-
GINA is the only State south sure OF having a
white mans government, and as soon as her
political rights are restored and she RENTED to
