THAT hush.

Slavery abolished, there was to be
Rush to these Southern States, and
chiefly TO Virginia. Rush OF Yankees,
Rush of Irish, Rush Of Germans, Rush
of Everybody. Time was when We be-
iieved i'm That Rush. Now nobody, ex-
cept a few land agents, believes in That |
Rush. There is, indeed, q momentary
excitement about supposed Rush OF
Chinese. The Dispatch is agitated.
1t is well for US that we are getting
better of the delusion about That Rush.
It is not to be. The Pacific X. K. opens
a domain so vast that century Of
Rushing will scarcely fill it. And the
movement Of That Rush is IN that d.
rection, not in ours.
Be it so since so 1t Is. Let us take
the fact to heart and act upon it. Ours
is to be the growth of the oak, not OF
the mushroom. Ten years hence, the
population OF Virginia will be what it
is now, little more perhaps, perhaps
little less. What we shall gam by
Northern immigration will be lost by
emigration of our young men and the
decrease of our blacks. We must aban-
don at once and forever all idea Of That
Rush. 1t is not coming.
We must build this ruined State with
our own hands. 81 have learned" said
the melancholy Pestalozzi, "that no
man In Gods wide earth is either will

Help must come from ourselves alone.
That Rush will never help us. 1t is SC

But our business is to recognize the
truth and act upon 1t. Fora while, the
