The Old Dominion.

AAAE OAu OoAlANLONs
A correspondent of the New Haven Reals
ter, written from Stauuton, Va, says: 90.
After writing with almost lightning speed
through portions of five States, find myself
in this section of the District of Virginia
formerly, and better known as the State of
Virginia, the "Old Dominion :, the "Mother
of States and Statement" A close observation
along the line of the railroad from Washing
ton to this point, revealed many evidences Of
the wonderful recuperative powers Of Virgin
ia, in the rich cultivated farms, and new resi-
dences springing up all through the country,
as well as in the cities and villages
The people here appreciate the tact Of the
great change in their social and labor system.
and the approach Of an entire new order of
things; and they appear aware of the fact that
the resources Of the old dominion are bound
less, and yetwiuhin reach of all that desire to
SOW and reap the benefits Of her productive
powers, hence the Northern man, no matter
how limited his capital may be, who comes iu-
to their midst in search Of home, is welcomed
cordially aud without reserve, and made to
feel that he is among friends and honorable
men. The resources Of the State are sufficient
to support eight millions of people in comfort;
from the cultivation Of the soil alone and no
State IN the Union has more water power for
manufacturing purposes, nor mere valuable
mineral springs Indeed taken in all, in nat.
ural resources she far SURPRISES all others in
the great confederation of States, and all that
her people now ask, is that your people cf the
bleak hills of the cold North shall come down
here, and with your machinery, indomitable
energy and perseverance, assist in developing
these great resources, and mako yourselves
mllllonaries in SO doing They want YOU to
come down here, and reconstruct them and
live with them under the reconstruction laws
you would make for the government of the
State, They do not care fig what kind Of re-
construction you make, provided you come
down aud lie in the same bed with them. for
you are the same color, the same race. Won

The farms here are large and unwieldv bnt
are being rapidly cut up into small farms. to
suit purchasers, and it is notorious fact that
much more is produced on these small farms
IN proportion than on the large ones, from the
tact that the small farms are better cultivated
The railroad communications throughout the
great valley are good and few hours travel
