| We regret to see any Virginia editor using
such language in relation to the public debt of
that good old Commonwealth, mother of honest
as we'll as of great men, as we find in the Rich
mond Wing. Speaking of the money in the
| treasury, far more than enough to pay the IN
tcrest then due on the debt, that paper says
with money in hand we shall be in better posi-
ton to make terms with our creditors" Make
terms, sorsooth Is the State of Virginia al
ready sunken as low as that?-Neto York Jour
nal of Commerce.
A correspondent of the Richmond Enquirer,
writing from Farmvlle, under date December
22d, says:
1.-The people of this section have been no in-
different readers of what has been trans pirlng
in our legislative body. We of all men need
relief and yet we are too poor to allow Virgin
la 8 credit to receive SO deadly blow without
warning our lawmakers that may be they are
making us poorer. If the outside world lose
confidence in Virginians, dark indeed is the fu-
ture. We appreciate the efforts made in our
behalf, and yet most sincerely deprecate the
results of the first move in that direction. That
measure cant be healthy one which SO de-
preciates our securities.
