r MT, HUNTER Almost thirty-slx years
have passed since r. NJ. I. Hunter was first
elected member Of Congress from this, his
native State. Enjoying in Virgiuia,a popularity
rarely equalcd or surpassed, he remained III
political life under the United States Govern
ment as member of the House aud Senate, land
under the Confederate States Government as
Secretary of State and Senator, until the end OF
the late war. During that long period of pubic
service extending over twenty eight years ne
retained the entire confidence ofhis constituents,
and sustained, unquestioned, the reputation OF
being one of the abest and soundest men OF his
day-a man thoroughly conservative in his
views, not prone to be extreme in the advocacy
of any measure, but always actuated by SIN
cere desire for the welfare and prosperity OF his
country. With such record, his speech deliv-
cred at the recent mass meeting in New York
city, should produce deep and lasting lm-
preston upon the people Of Virginia, who 10
the past he has served so we'll and faithfully.
DISTINGUISHED himself, and with no present
prospect of future political eminencc, Mr.
Hunter can be accused of no selfish motives IN
what he says. His words are those of man
who speaks with sincere conviction of the
truth of what he utters, who knows the dangers
he deprecates, and who is anxious to warn his
countrymen from perils they know not of. There
is no half way course with Mr.. Hunter; he de-
clares that he is for Greeley and Brown bellev-
ing that they alone can restore peace and har-
mony throughout this country. MIR. Hunter 5
speech is worthy of his best days, and meets
with hearty response from every true Fir-
pinian.

lMM1GRAroN.-In an address by the Board
of Immigration of the Northern Neck of |lr-
gipia, some excellent advice is given in to those
who desire to settle in the State 'Those who
come here to purchase lands, ought not to pur-
chase more than they are prepared to pay tor
when payments are due, but rather to have
sufficient surplus of means to stock and I'M
prove their land to some extent, and to live
while waiting for the first crop. 1t is true, there
have been instances, where purchasers have
run in debt for their farms, and by extraordl-
nary success been enabled to pay it off with
two or three years crops but any calculation
based upon such success is most frequently
followed by disappointment, detrimental to the
true interests of the old citizens as we'll as the
new settlers The surplus means needed over
and above the purchase money depends upon
the state of cultivation the land is in, and how
long they will have to wait for their first crop. "

GERMAN IMMIGRATION To AMERIcA-A
North German newspaper in Berlin has
entered on the task of explaining to the Prus-
sian people and of defending before the
nation the recent act of the Imperial Execu-
tive for the regulation of emigrant fares, the
advance Of the railroads tariff charges for
ernigrant baggage and other edicts of similar
import tending to repress the voluntary exodus
of the people to America by increasing the
cost of travel to the home points of embarka-
ton for the United States This press duty
if it be duty, is all very fair, and it may be
very patriotic. But when the German writer
comes to charge ''exaggeration'' and "dis-
tortion" of facts against the American press
for its manner Of recording and commenting
on the facts, and also to indirectly accuse
the Washington government of failing in its
treaty negotiations, by a willful delay in the
completion Of a satisfactory instrument for
the regulation Of emigration during many
years, the whole matter Of this enigrant law
movement in Germany is made to become
rather serious; not only to the Germans who
wish to come to the Republic and to their
friends who await to receive and assist them
on landing, but also to the diplomatic comfy
which should always be maintained between
great and friendly nations.
