It is much to be dcplorcd that there should

Many ports, it is believed, boston certainly
have no harbor master. 1t is said. by those
who know, aud have no direct interest III the
matter, that there will be much difficulty in
getting any vessels to stop here to load coal
when they can be towed, free of charge. to

The agents Of the companies now doing bust

business in Georgetown, where they, fortunate

in time we will be in great danger of loosing
the whole A heavy company is or was about
coming here, but this new burden on the coal
vessels will drive it Of. Some Of the com

In YESTERDAY, Gazette saw letter from E.
Dillingham; to the State journal, in which he
makes very encouraging statemeut 0t the
present condition Of the wv oodIawn Colony:
and, also, brief history Of the same. W lsh-
lug all success 70 this and all similar enterprises
it is with regret | notice some points in this
letter The writer evidently seems TO think the
people of Virginia are unriendly in feeling and
inmical in practice to Northern settlers. Hence
for mutual encouragement and aid and social
advantages, they should come in colouics-or
not at all. He adds: ''rhousands Of emi grants
who came into the State with equal advantages
in all respects with themselves but who settled
promiscuously over the State, have become dis
couraged and left long siuce, or are trying to
sell and get away at sacrifice. That many
have been discouraged and left and others are
willing to sell at sacrifce-may be very true.
But is it not equally true that the cause OF this
disbursement and loss may be found in the
fact that in majority Of such cases the settlers
undertook too much for their means? Hence.
debt, encouragement and failure very much
doubt if more changes. fluctuations and fail
ures and successes, have attended any equal
number OF settlers, promiScuous or otherwise,
in the State, than have attended tins vannted

letter in question is notable instance.
We utterly repudiate the theory that Viz
ginia and Nirginians are no fit home and aSsocl-
atcs for Northern families. A short time ago

to be equally true of the people all over the
State. flad friend Dillingham; confined his
statements and advice to his own friends whose
social habits usually prompt them to form or
seek settlements composed Of persons OF like
habits and sentiments, no exceptions would he
taken But applied generally, ] regard them
as erroneous in fact and mischievous in ten
