The PRESIDENTS Views. According to
the Long Branch correspondent of the Boston
Transcript, the President 10 his message to
Congress, when Democratic House of Repre-
sentatives will have the privilege of consider
Ing bis recommendations, will set forth 1.-The
depressed and suffering condition of the bust.
ness and commerce of the nation. and will d.
rect attention to the necessity of taking meas
ures to establish the currency on sound basis
by preparing for resumption under the existing
lawIn 1879, to which he will say We alone can
look tor restoration of confidence and credit
and revival of trade.
HE will eDlarge.upon the necessity of To-
creaslng the national revenues as preliminary
to resumption. He will to that end recon-
mend the restoration Of the duty on tea and
coffee, by the abolition of which the Govern
ment has lost from $40, 600, 900 to $25, OOU, 900
Year without any benefit to the consumer;
the taxation of all articles of foreign manufac-
ture, and probably the abolition Of the entire
free list.
10 addition the President will probably sug-
gest such ao amendment of the legal tender
act as will require the payment Of all internal
revenue duties in gold, as further provision
for resumption. The President will make it
clear in his message to Congress that he in
tends to practically carry out the duly imposed
upon the Government by the resuu pton act
by proceeding to contract the present green
back issue to the limit allowed by the law. Up
on this point, more than any other, he relies
Tor the support of the moneyed interests of the
country 10 the Republican Presidential Con-
vention."

ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA.
/ WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER %.

EMIGRATION TO VIRGINIA.-In the New
York World, of late date, we find 40 article
under the head of immigration for Virginia. -
the opening paragraph of which is as follows
''The visit of General Fitzhugh Lee and his
committee to this city, in encouragement Of i'm
migration for Virginia, suggests natural sur
prise that there should be any occasion for Vir-
gnians to solicit immigration. When We re.
feet that farmers from the Middle and Eastern
States are forming colonies 10 Colorado, where
every foot of land has to be irrigated at cost
per acre exceeding the prices at which some of
the best lands in Virginia can now be bought
10 fee-simple, and where their crops when
made, are eighteen hundred miles from market,
instead of Immediately on tide-water, we can
not refrain from sense of wonder. Of course,
the negro is rather Objectionable; but the class
of farmers who 90 West as rule do not hire
much labor, furnishing their own; and it is only
IS hreling that the negro can give much OF
Tense to any reasonable being. The natural
advantages of Virginia, and the agricultural
premiums which that ancient commonwealth
offers to industrious incomers, are just now
greater than those held out by any other por-
ton of the continent. In variety and excel
lence OF soil, 10 mineral wealth, 10 natural wa.
ter-Ways, and In artificial means of commuuica-
ton, Virginia is very rich. Her canal aud rail,
road systems are founded upon an intelligent
and comprehensive plan, nor is there any other
State in the Union which is completely traver.
sed, from east to west, by three great trunk
lines. Freight Cd grain to New York ought
not to exceed fifteen cents bushel from any
part of Virginia.
: This is followed, by portraying the innate
fertility OF the soil, its advantages for peculiar
productions, the character of the climate, etc.,
and contrasting certain localities in Virginia
with those Of Maryland and Pennsylvania, show
ing the great difference 10 price for the same
quality of soil. All of which is gerry true.
The World then says:
The people of Virgiaia have their pecu
Garities, to which the immigrant must &C.
commodate himself of course, Just as be
would have to do in going into auy other
strange country. But they are a generous,
kindly people, proverbially hospitable, and
frank and upright 10 their dealing. They will
eagerly welcome immigration, for they are
perlshlng tor need of it. Always free handed
and not given to economical ways, they are now
extremely poor, and must continue so until
they can divide up their immense tracts of land,
which they have no capital to improve, and
which are too uawieldy to be thriftiy managed
into smaller holdings, and find Industrious
farmers to buy these parttioued tracts and
make them productive. Virginian leaders Of
opinion thoroughly understand the condition of
things, and appreciate the fact that to reuovate
the agriculture of the State, a great iuhux of
capital is Deeded, and can be had only 10 one
way: by getting the small capitalists to come
Into the State, buy lands aud improve them. :"

CRIME IN NEW CASTLE COUNTY.

The remarks of Chief Justice Gilpin, in his
charge to the Grand Jury, on an apparent IN
crease of crime in this county, place the snpject
IN a vivid light, and are every way 70 strongly
phrased that we cannot help but seek to some-
what qualify their force Thus, we should have
vigorously denied, had any one but the Judge
asserted it, that there has been " 3 fearful in
crease OF crime in this county. is true that
the jail is full and over crowded, But TINS Is no
more than natural. There is a large increase in
the population for which the Jail is the only
place of imprisonment. There is, especially.
large growth in the city Of Wilmington, from
which, naturally, many petty offenders are sent.
The past winter was one of exceptionel severity,
and there was a great lack of employ
ment two facts that swelled the num-
her of bummers, pilferers, and yagrantF
Many of these people came from other sections
OF the country, and crowded in upon us-not to
the remote and isolated sections below ys, but
to the Northern end of the State, of which Will
mington is the easily-reached CENTRE Larcenies,
burglarea, and other depredations, assaults
and similar offences multiply in times OF want
and suffering. This is natural. That. in the
course OF six months interval between our
Courts, such recruits should crowd the one
building which is at once our convict prison, our
house OF correction, and our vagraut cells, is
not strange.
Capital crimes have not lattorly been frequent
ia New Castle county-at least not conrictions
for capital crimes. Some shocking homicdei
and outrages smirched the calendar few year,
ago, which OF late we have not been called t
complain of.
One or two more comments 1t IL eviden
that at this time the public sentiment of Ken
ana Sussex counties is more strongly in favor o
temperance and temperance legislation thar
that OF New Castle county. Two hundred ant
ftty places are, OF very lately We're, selling Ii
quor without State license, and OF these the
greater part are in this county. Is there any re
lation between these facts and the apparent
increase OF crime, here and decrease in Kon
and Sussex And further if crime terribly ant
slaimingly swels its records amongst US, wher,
is the pillory, where the whipping-post Hav'

The reports which we publish this morning
from upwards OF two hundred different points
On the present condition and prospect of the
PennsylTania wheat crop will be of general in
terest to all our readers. Thess reports will be
found specially valuable and reliable from the
fact that they give simultaneous view of the
whole field, differing in this respect from the
struggling and detached data collected at differ
ent periods and hence OF little yalue) by the
bureau of Agriculture. II will be seen that
