GOVERNOR WALKERS VISlT TO WASHING
roS.--The Governor left this city for Wash
ington yesterday morning to look after Fir-
gnia's quota of arms due from the Federal
Government for four years past. The bill al
lowing the quota has passed the House OF
Representatives, but hangs fire i'll the Senate.
If we had it, our volunteer infantry would
not only be at once handsomely equipped,
but the two artillery companies would be
supplied with the pieces so necessary to their
equipment. 1t is probable That the Governor
viii also use his influence in behalf Of the
state Board of Education in favor OF the
passage of the bill making further appro.
priations CT public lands for educational
purposes, now before the Senate.

in variety of patterns, beauty of texture, and
smoothness Of finish. They are not sur-
passed by the products of my factory in this

comparative merits of these and like goods
of the best foreign factories. We trust that
southern dealers especially will continue to
