Senator Sumner, father OF
the Republican party and for
ten years chairman cf the Sen.
ate Committee on Foreign re-
lations, has been removed from
that position because of his op.
position to the Presidents
swindling San Domingo annex,
alton scheme. 1t remains to
be seen whether Sumner will
quietly pocket this insult and
tamely submit to the humilia-
ton and disgrace thus sought
to be placed upon him, by the
administration and its pimps
for his contumacy in daring to
oppose the favorite scheme of
his serene highness Ulyssus 1st.
From our knowledge of the
man we are inclined to think
Sumner will not surrender at
discretion but will carry the
war into Africa and make it
uncomfortably hot for the Ad.
ministration and its corrupt
and cringing lackeys and sup
porters. Look out for lively
times ahead. 1rlaa -n

MORE "VARMINTs."- appears that
the inhabitants of the northern corner Of Brady
township have been greatly annoyed, during the
summer and fall, by members Of the Wolf family,
who were in the daily habit of fcasting on mutton
This was very evident from the number of sheep
slaughtered in that neighborhood. Last week,
however, an old woodsman, Samuel Troy, learning
the walks Of Mr.. Wolf, laid for him, and having
set some traps, was no little surprised on looking
to them few days after to find that he had Sc
cured two full grown pesl,y wolves, which he soon
dispatched, disrobed and scalpcd, and on present
ing bis certificate to Treasurer illegal, drew his
premium Of S2l.

LETTER FROM VIRGINIA.
Nav sroRr, Buckingham Co., |

October 20, 1871.
Mn Enron; This county is on the south side
Of the State, bounded on the north by the James
River and on the south by the Appomattox, its
entire length, and is severed into three nearly
equal parts by Slate and Willis River and their
tributaries, so that II is well watercd. All north
OF Willis River is fine for wheat and grass, and
on the south side is more sandy and better adapt
ed to tobacco, corn, oats, ac and tho white pine,
fruits of all kinds and the smaller vegetables
The South Side Rail Road skirts It's entire south,
ern border from FIVE to seven miles off, and the
james River aud Kanawha Canal are ON its north
ern border. There is q charter for railroad from
Richmond, the capital, to Lynchburg, and the
route was surveyed, passing through the heart of
the county, very near this place. When that is
constructed, II will add immensely to the value of
the lands and timber and all other productions
along its line.
We have common school system, similar to
that Of Pennsylvania, now in operation. Our
courts of justice and churches are all in full oper
alton. Good order and sobricty prevail in tho
whole county, and an earnest and sincere welcome
is extended to every good and true man and wo-
man who comes in our midst to sojourn and find a
home. We need population and all we can get.
Quite n number of English, Scotch and Northern
gentlemen are purchasing lands and locating in
our midst.
Many tracts of land are for sale, and on easy
terms. Indeed, one coming here can always be
suited, either by purchase, lease rent as he may
prefer. l know of no field better for speculation,
even, than investment in lands here. Any judi
cous gentleman can buy land now at price which
is about half its actual value but influx of
population will carry the price up in few years.
Some persons from your town have settled here
and are doing well and have most pleasant sur
roundings, and we would be pleased to have more
