wrsr VIRGINIA TOBACCO WAREHOUSES;
Az OPPORTUNITY FOR INCREASING OUR
TRApE,-The West Virginia Legislature
has established State tobacco warehouse at
Huntington, and another at Parkersburg,
with the view OF encouraging the produc-
ton of this staple and to organize better
system OF sales than now exist. Samples
are to be guaranteed by the State, no charge
will be made for storage not extending be-
yond twelve months, and several other ad-
vantages offered to purchasers. L. d.
SteaIv, ESQ.,, superintendent OF these ware
houses, and Hon. Eustace Gibson, Speaker
of the West Virginia House OF Delegates,
are in the city for the purpose OF confer
ring with members Of the tobacco trade,
and to induce as many as can conVe-
niently do so to attend the first break,
which is to be made at Huntington on next
Tuesday. West Virginia produces annually
about $4,000 hogshcads OF tobacco, the
greater part OF which, with much from
| Ohio and Kentucky, will find markets al
Huntington and Parkersburg. Our West
| Virginia friends think that this trade natu-
rally belongs to Richmond;' and having
made bargains for very low freight rates
over the Chcssp peake and Ohio road, expect
TO receive from the dealers Of this city Z
liberal support for their enterprise. Scve-
raj firms have indicated their desire 10 DC

The exhibition OF these dances, which oc-

and pupils, the general proficiency and
grace and ease Of the latter being the sub

OF the delighted spectators. Professor

this his crowning effort in the art OF Terpsi-

On Sunday morning the good people OF
the neighborhood of Cool Spring church
were aroused and alarmed by the report
that a strange and fearful animal was al
large, and was eating up all the early vege
tables he could lay his teeth to !; and further
that as soon as he had satisfied his appetite
he would pay his respects to the citizens OF
the county.
On Sunday morning it was seen by MeSsrs
F. L. Barnes, Nelson Tyler, and seyera
ladies, short distance above Atlee's station,
on the farms OF Messrs. Trainham ano
Wyatt, and they all unhesitatingly pro-
nounced it without doubt lioness. The
footprints in the field where it had been seen
were so large that the inhabitants could moi
mistake the fact that some strange beast was
in their midst. A reliable farmer reports
the fact that by actual measurement the
footprints in his tomato-patch were over
five inches in width.
The CONSERVATION and excitement pro-
duced in the neighborhood can hardly be
described, and from the large number ol
farmers bearing firearms and Warlike in
struments Of all descriptions, who haStcneo
to the scene early yesterday morning. one
would have readily supposed that war was
imminent. In fact, the forces had already
been organized. The cavalry appeared upor
the scene, commanded by General Lipscomb
armed with swords, guns. pistols, pitch
forks, and cowhidcs. Each volunteer
seemed to have graspcd the first weapon
that fell into his hands, and to have gone
forward with the fierce determination o.
resenting this sudden and unlooked-for ap
pearancc OF an enemy. A pack OF hound:
led the advance, followed by the cavalry
and the infantry, under command OF M7lo1
Jones, extending their skirmishcrs' ant
beating the bushes, cautiously brought III
the rear.
The result Of this grand forward move
mcnt has not yet been developed. The las
information from the seat OF war is con
yeycd in the following telegram, which WI
received late last evening:
ATLEE'S, Va, May 14.-A short distance
above Atlce's station, on the farms o
MesSrs. Trainham and Wyatt, a lioness wa
seen on Sunday evening by F. 7. Barnes
Nelson Tyler, and several ladies, and to-da,
by large number Of persons. Some tift.
or sixty are now in pursuit. The track
are very plain in many places. When las
seen the tracks passed through Captain
Richard Fox's farm, and thence down th
old Telegraph road in the direction OF DR.
Wooldridge's mill.
The animal, no doubt, has escaped from
some circus menagerie, and will soon b.
killed or captured.

sented that DR.. Baird left the city by advice
of friends, but with the conviction on hi:
own part that that course was not gooo
policy.
The grand jury yesterday also indicted
Thomas Tinsley for deceiying Julia Scott
under promise Of marriage; Robert John

4 STEAMER on TIE CANAL.-A steam
cana-boat made its appearance in the DOCK
on Saturday, and yesterday many persons
visited the locality OF its moorinss to get Il
peep at it. The craft is a huge boat for the
canal, and has an engine OF thirty-horSc-
power. She is screw-propcllcr, ana IS
said to have acted well on the Chesapeake
and Ohio canal from which place it came to
Richmond. The capacity is about ll0 or
115 tons, and with this load its power Is
sufficient in good water to tow at least one
other boat of the same capacity. The boat
is brought here by Mr.. Clcndenln@ at the
instance of MeSSrs. Archer & Booker, who
expect to use it in bringing coal from their
mines at Bclona. They have recently
struck coal in q new shaft, and presume
with these boats the great difficulty OF navl-
eating the river will be overcome. A trial
will no doubt be made this week, and II 1t IS
a success it will be used to transport coal also
from the old Powhatan pits, now known as
the "Old Dominion" coal-mines. The
steamer will leave the canal at Bosher'S $
dam, and then proceed up the pond. \
canal-boat has not yet been found that can
bring freight with any satisfaction from the
south side Of James river to Richmond and
be able to overcome the difficulty OF navi-
eating the river against high water anu
high wind.
