ALEXANDRIA, VA.
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER %.

STATE Matters used to be alleged that,
in Virginia, too much attention was paid to
National affairs to the neglect OF home and
State matters. This complaint can no longer
be made. Never we're there people more
disnosed to attend to their own material inter-
ests, and to turn from the politics of Washing
ton and of parties, than are the citizens OF 'lr-
ciuia at this time. OF course, they feel natu-
raj and proper anxiety about what relates to the
government under which they live,-and have
their decided opinions as to the course OF the
executive and legislative departments OF that
government but their great and leading idea
is, to employ themselves in what Is connected
with the Improvement Of their own State
They think much more and talk much more
about their lines of railroads, their agricultural
mineral and manufacturing resources, their
commercial advantages, the growth and pros
perity of their cities and towns, their prospects
for an increase of immigration. the value OF
their lands, and all such things, than they DO
about President making, or the revolutions and
changes of political parties and their leaders.
This is a good and wholesome state OF feeling
and one which should be approved and en-
couraged Our blessings, in the future, are
under Providence, to flow, not from the general
government; but from the energy and industry
of our, people, aided by the capital which is
now here, and that which We all hope will be
induced to come from other countries and
States, to be employed in farming, in mills, in
vessels, in hundreds of branches Of trade
What are Offices, or the temporary advance
meut of individuals, or the smiles and the re.
wards which power is able to bestow, to the
solid independence, and happiness and pros
pcrity of the PEOPLE of the State? Nothing
absolutely nothing That Virginia may attain
the object which her people so ardently hope
for-and which by their course they are seek
ing to securc--is our fondest wish We 90 for
Virginia, frst last, and all the tune!
