From tho Richmond Dispatch Of the 20th

The report is signed by Jonathan NJ. Ben.

cluslon arrived at is thatas West Virginia
whilst part Of this State paid more
money into. the Virginia treasury over
and above tho ordinary expenses Of the
State government than was expended
within the borders Of the new State, she
now owes no part Of the public debt Of
Virginia, At least twothirds Of the coun.
ties still remaining in Virginia could set
up the same plea. In word, the conclu.
sion Is contemplate. Such report re-
