VIRGINIA ClTY.--On recent visit to the Capital,
we found things pursuing the even tenor of their
way, and business healthy and good, with slightly
depressed money market. Virginia City has been
the best town in the Territory the past year. Tne
merchants have done twice the business they ex-
pected to do early in the season, and as general
thing money has always been easy. Certain
branches of business have not come up TO expecta-
TONS and particular lines are represented by large
stocks and small sales; but general merchandise
has met large jobbing trade, and retail buyers
have not diminished. Virginia is surrounded by
the most substantial elements of permancy in her
rich agricultural districts and immense quartz lodes
and time and enterprise will develop her into
healthy growth.
