she scarcely failed to those old chronic TO-
male complaints that had resisted all ordinary modes
of treatment. Many years ago, the writer of this,
while engaged in the practice of medicine by little
strategy succeeded in procuring the secret of this
wonderful Vegetable Regulator, which had never
been known to the Medical Profession.
He gave 1t fair and impartial trial in the treat

SUBSCRIPTION 10 the valley railroad. But
as the bill passed, and Col. Cochran again
carried his point and the road triumphed,
it is not necessary for us to give any more
of the Majors speech on that point.
The Wing has a column on "What Vir-
ginia Needs" As what she needs will
readily occur to the minds of all, and is
contained in the simple sentence, "Capital,
immigration, and good government" and
as that is the quintessence of all articles
on that subject, it is useless for US to bur-
den our columns with an extended cata-
logue of "Virginia's needs"
The Rhig, however, reduces her "Needs"
to the one thing of internal improvements
These, it says, are our only hope. If it
will add manufactures we will agree with
it. But perhaps it means that internal
improvements will bring US manufactures.
Why not start them both together? We
do not lay out the streets, parks and pub
lie places, and build hotels in city, and
stores, until there is business to be done
and people to be Accommodated. Give us
capital and manufacturing enterprise, and
our internal improvements will prosper.
The iron bands will make a network
all over the State, and the whistle of the To-
connective will become so common that even
the lactiferous kline will not pause in their
nominations beneath the outrageous shade
of the wide-spreading oaks, when its
music wakes the echoes of the hills and
reyerberates through the valleys. elbows
that for high?"
But the Wing is progressive, and is on
the right track, when it says, in replying
to the objections urged against giving
privileges to foreign corporations
The greater, the richer and more powerful
these corporations are, the greater their use

first item puzzled him; it was new. The d.

subject was laid before them. Chairs were

until the following speech was made by one OF
the members:
Gentlemen of the board: These bills OF ours
received to-day have cost this bank large sum
of money. The eugraver. the printer, the pa
per-maker and incdentals, all have to be paid
The thought of these expenditures, so Justly in.

bills are very fine and an ornament to the bank
But, gentlemen, when it is proposed to send

traded for cattle-torn, soiled, and perhaps ut.
terly destroyed-I, for one solemnly protest.
venture, this moment, gentlemen, to assert the
opinion, that should you be so unwise as to al
low these new bills to be sent North and West,

SUNSHINE AND SLEEP.-Sleepless people

sunshine out Of their house and their hearts,
they wear walls, they carry parasols, they do all
possible to keep off the subteest and yet most
potent influence which is intended to give them
strength and beauty and cheerfulness. Is it not
time to change Ill this, and go get color
