MINERALS FOR THE STATE L fAIR.-N take
pleasure in calling attention to the follow
ing communication, hoping that the papers
throughout the State will copy it, and that
its suggestions may be literally responded
to:
"RICHMoND, VA, September Is, 1870.
cit is very desirable that the exhibition
of minerals ut the approaching State Fair
shall be rs large and complete as possible.
So much has been said Of the mineral re-
sources Of our State, and such sanguine
expectations are based on the wealth we
are to derive from them, that much interest
has been excited. 1t is to our advantage,
therefore, that no effort be spared to pre-
sent TO visitors the most complete collection
possible of our actual resources. Having
been appointed superintendent Of the de-
partmcnt Of minerals, I'deSire to do all that
l can to assist in it's objects. Much Of the
value of this collection depends upon its
being arranged to be both attractive and
instructive. The mere collecting together
an immense mass Of heterogeneous speci-
mems, no matter how valuable in them
selves, will be Of little effect. LII this view,
offer my services to assist those who are
willing TO cooperate with me.
81 earnestly request every person in the
State who has minerals OF any description
to forward specimens of them. Let those
who are interested ia each county make it
their business to see that a complete collec-
tion of every mineral known to exist in the
county comes forward. To those who will
forward their specimens to me personally
before the Goth Of October, I promise to
give them my personal attention. l will
examine them, label them properly, enter
them for exhibition, and arrange them in
the general collection and, if desired, will
communicate to the parties the result of my
examinations as to the nature and value of
their specimens. / particularly request
those who have valuable private collections
to contribute them for the occasion !; they
shall have my personal care, and after the
close of the Fair 1 will carefully repack
and return them. .. &.
81 will forward q schedule of premiums
offered to all who may request it. A full
collection of the marls Of Eastern Virginia
is very desirable, also of mnerls useful for
paints, and of foundry and glass sands, fire.
clays-in fact, every mineral and ore found
in the State. Send everything, and / will
select such as are desirable to exhibit.

the officers, but they will enforce such pro-
cesses and provisions rs they are assured
they will be sustained in executing. The
preparations for the purpose are being per-
fected every day, and there will be no lack
Of authority to back up the officers.
The officers charged with the duty of

preservation of the purity Of the ballot,
