States lose their identity? Was it before or
after the adoption Of the amendment to the
Constitution Of the United States abolishing
slavery? The same Governor exists in Vir-
GINA, or did few days ago, who was elected
under the State Constitution formed by the
Radical Convention at Alexandria, and every
Legislature elected since was chosen under
that charter. It is time that the ex-
act date Of the destruction Of the State govr
eminent should be definitely fixed. Virginia
is a State when Underwood and the Devil

Having been fourteen months Resident Physi-
clan of the Wills Hospital for diseases of the Eye,
in the city of Philadelphia the oldest and most
celebrated Institution Of the kind in the United
States, he fatters himself he will be able to give
entire satisfaction to all who may consult him.
He has had ten years experience in the treat
ment of Diseases Of the Eye, since leaving the
Wills Hospital and knows, from actual expert
ence that he can Treat Successfully all Diseases
of the Eye that are Durable, and nearly all are,
whether requiring
MEDICAL OR SURGICAL AID.
The public are aware that Physicians general
y pay but little attention to diseases of the Eye
having never had the opportunity or time to ac-
quire thorough theoretical and practical knoyl-
edge of this class of diseases, and consequently,
they cannot be expected to treat them as satsfac-
torily as one who has had both.
am well aware of the objections in the popu-
lar mind to advertising, because this has been
heretofore practiced by foreigners and pretend
ers in Science, whose only object has been to de-
ceiye and humbug-but, as native of this coun-
ty, well known to most of the citizens, with am
pie opportunities and facilities for acquiring
knowledge of
OPHTHALMIC DISEASES.
and enlarged experience in treating Eye Diseases
PRACTICALLY, think can demonstrate my fitness
for this speciality to all who may extend to me
their patronage. Persons afflicted with
DISEASES OF THE EYE,
Of long standing, and who have been subjected to
various modes of treatment WITHOUT RELIEF,
should not be discouraged, as it often happens
that those cases having been sadly neglected or
badly treated are
MOST READILY AND RAPIDLY CURED,
although it must be admitted, as general rule,
the longer the duration of a diseased condition,
the longer the time required for its eradication.
1t is needless to speak of the value of sight
those only can properly estimate lis advantages
who are unfortunately deprived Of it.
REMEMBER, there are some in every commune
ty and many in the Blind Institution of this
place, who have been either partially or totally
deprived of their sight on account of delayed
unskillful treatment.

the rccitations of the day, would turn my
back on all indoors, and seating myself at one
ofthe windows that looked to the west, would
gaze upon the mountains bathed in the glory
Of an autumn sunset, ssolemn, yet beautiful to
behold"
But it was not Of the old home that start
ed to write, but of our new one here in the
mountains. "Cold, bleak region," you call it?
Now let me tell you, despite all privations. we
do manage to enjoy ourselves sometimes. The
country in thinly settled, and facilities for
"getting around" are scarce yet dare say,
your city bellies can't boast of a gayer Christ
