The AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE Ian

THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE LAND
FUND. Without intending to be ungracious,
We may say that three huhdrel thousand
acres of wild public land is n small fund for so
large q State as Virginia; when it is re-
membered, too, that she gave away, without
any reserve moro square miles Of better
land then are now available, she might tie
permitted to ask, aud get, at least three
millions of acres Tor school and college pur.
poses.
When the Legislature gets through the ciec
ton of Judges, it would be well for it to cor
slider the propriety OF the passage OF q joint
resolution petitioLing Congress to grant the
State at least three millions acres Of land-0nc
halt Tor common schools, and the other hall
Tor the higher schools, of the State. Waiting
for this with hope. which may be deferred
until the heart sickcnS, the fund already
granted may be attended tc.-I1ahmoHR

If the remarks of Senator Lewis at the late
meeting ut ihn Republican committees, in
Richmond, and published in the papers ct
that city, having been severely criticised and
unanimously condemned Wy the conservative
papers OF the State. that gentleman requests
US to say, for him. that the language At
tributcd to him On that occasion has been
misunderstood or wiIiuIIy nulsreprcsentcG.'
lie AYERS that he "nevcr meant to Convey any
other idea than tue one cXprcsScd-that the
safety Of the Union men as L party, depended
on the union Of all the clements OF opposition
to the Democracy"
He further said, that at would be 4 dark
day for Virginia, when tho rebel Democracy
got possession OF the State. These remarks OF
Mr.. Lewis, he assures US, were intended to
have an exclusively political: and not personal
or social, application to the Union men 10 the
State. Mir. Lewis has often expressed the
opinion, and has not sought to disguise it,
that "a Union mans person was as SAT. in
Virginia as in Massachusetts,
In this connection. we must be permitted to
say, that we think the attempt 10 unite "aIl
