Sothern in his wrath at having the part
assigned him, it will be agreed, if the
Erds figures are correct, that the wrath
OF Lord Dundreary of 1868 was a more
profitable outburst Of passion than
usually falls to the lot OF man.

A WARMING.

The failure of an eminent banking
house in New York, closely identified
with an improvement of momentous i'm
portance TO Virginia, should open the eyes
of our people to the effects of Conserva-
tive policy. This house failed because the
bonds ofthe company could not be sold suffi-
GENTLY fast to keep pace with the expenditure
necessary to complete its improvements
though offered at high rate of interest
and of unquestoned security. And why
could not these bonds be sold? Simply
because they had to be bought by parties
who were not born in Virginia. These
people, who had already invested largely
in the state, got tired of hearing those
upon whose enterprise depended The value
of their Investments styled, day after day,
