QUIT CORN AND RAISE TOBACCO,

Under the above caption the Fredericks-
burg Herald asserts she utter impossiblity of
Virginia farmers competing with those of the
West in the matter of raising corn, and ad-
vocatcs the general culture of tobacco as
more remunerative crop. We learn that some
of our own farmers are beginning to think
seriously of this matter, and will probably
enter into the cultivation of this valuable
commodity. 1t is asserted by many that our
soil and climate will produce the finest tobacco,
and whilst we confess our own ignorance of
the matter, we breach the subject in order
that those so inclined may be induced to guin
farther information in regard to it. At least
an experiment will test the question of the
adaptability of our soil and climate to the
culture of tobacco, and of its proftableness
there is no cause to doubt.
re- That excellent daily, <the Baltimore
Gazette, will make its appearance on the 10Th
in quarto form, and will be similar in size to
the New York dailies Of the qnarto species.

pleted, and the articles for exhibition have
not been fully arranged. A telegram to the
New York Herald says it will be the end of
June before the Exposition can be seen in full
blast, and that seven thousand carloads of
goods are on the way between Vienna aud the
frontier, which at the most can only be un-
loaded and placed in position at the rate of

Who Fired the First Gun?

1t will not do for the Jacob men to say that
the Legislature is making war upon the Gov
eTnor-neither it is becoming in the Repub-
licaus to fan this flame; for every we'll in
formed man knows the contrary to be true.
1t has not been forgotten that Governor jacob
distinctly announced that be would appoint nc
man to Office who had opposed his election.
This declaration was made to judge Charles
s. Lewis, as We are informed, on the occasion
of the appointment of Judge to sit upon
the trial of Judge Lewis contested election,
and bow far he carried, and would have carried
out that principle, was limited only by his
hates and desires. We are aware that the
Governor afterwards qualified this sweeping
declaration by general statement that it ap-
piled only to those who had been most active
opponents, and who had been inscriptions
in the means of opposition but he has never
attempted, by person or by any of his ndvo-
Gates, to deny the general charge in this re,
gard that has been made against him. The
Governor having thus ''opened the ball -
should not grumble a. the consequences his
declarations and acts have brought about.

cHAPPED HANDS.

In healthy condition the skin is kept
supple by an oily secretion. which answers
the same purpose as oiiing leather. Dur
ing warm weather this secretion, in COM
mon with all the other secretiens Of the
skin, is more abundant thanin cold. When
it is insufficient the skin becimes dry and
harsh and on those parts Of the body
where the skin is thick and subject to
motion as on the hands, it readily cracks
or assures. The amount of this secretion
is so much reduced in cold weather that
the frequent washing of the hands with
soap causes them to chap readily, and this
the more certainly if the soap is not wash
ed off The aikali in soap is usually in ex-
cess, and this combines with the oily se-
erection, and so deprives the skin of its nat
urai lubricator To prevent the hands
from chapping, then, be careful TO wash
all soap from them thoroughly in clean
water. This win ordinarily suffice: but, Il
not, it will be necessary to make good the
