Better Times.

The Vine-Growers' Association Of Wash
ington, according TO the statement OF our
Washington correspondent, has sent q COM
mittee OF three to Virginia and the Caro-
linas 10 make observation and gather facts
with regard to the adaptability OF the land
and climate in those States to the culture OF
the grape. In this State there has been q
steady expansion OF the cultivation Of the
vine. We have society, whose headquar-
tiers are in Richmond, that has gone to work
I'M a practical manner by establishing wine
mandatory Cor receiving grapes and the
juice of the grape, and for making the wine
by proper processes. and storage. This So
ciety is headed By men OF experience, and
they are proceeding In the way which their
knowledge points out as the sure way to
make wine. They are satisfied that there
are good wine-grapes in Virginia and, fine
localities for the cultivation Of the grape.
They will put the products OF Virginia in
the grape line to fair test, and we are
saDguine of obtaining good results.
Its fact which should be gratifying to
our.~ceuntry friends that there 1s a great
deal more inquiry the present season than
during some years past for good farms.
There are many northern citizens who are
seeking more gentle climate than that
they have in the North, and who admire
Virginia and desire to make it their adopted
State. We noticed day or two since re-
markable team from Pennsylvania that APP
peared in our city. 1t belonged toa Penn
sylyanian who was in the act Of taking up
his residence in the upper James-River val
ley. We could not resist the temptation to
draw picture contrasting this demonstra-
ton of the high appreciation OF the
lard and cline of Virginia in. the pres
ence of legislative assembly which
has been doing much in the way Of impair
ing the credit, and peace, and prosperity OF
the State. The picture was, alas, too true,
and, we fear, tended to disturb the quietand
hope OF our adopted citizens. But, while
the picture was true, there is the bestreason
to assure our friends and fellow-citizens OF
Virginia, and also these welcome adopted
citizens from the North, that the tcrash-
ing" readjusters, whose views and meas
ures were steadily tending to the ruin Of the
State, are frustrated and the harm they con-
cocted for the general welfare is avoided.
There is now the silyer-lining to the dark
cloud that lowered over Virginia. Time is
afforded for rest and recuperation. The
whole country is recovering. Confidence
and trust are gaining strength, the Com
monwealth will be able to resume the bust
ness Of meeting her public obligations, and
soon we shall have thrift and contentment
instead Of confusion and uneasiness.
We invite the immigrant with means and
energies, and do not believe that he will.
regret that he came to Virginia, with her
gentle climate, generous lands, and genial
society. Werealiy believe that we say WITH
truth that there now begins an era OF rest

SENATOR COMBINES 1ErTER

At the Saratoga republican conference last
Thursday the following letter from Hon.
Roscoe ConKling was read. 1t is filled with
calm wisdom and earnest sensible advice.
From its utterances men of lesser calibre
who are ready to desert a party if party re.
ward ceases for an instant can CLEAN some
reads:
MY DEAR SIR: l have your note say.
ing q number of republicans will meet at
Saratoga tomorrow to take counsel togeth-
er. This seems to me wise and timely.
The government of the country is rapidly
passing absolutely into the hands of those
who so lately sought to destroy it, not stop
ping until they had filled the land with woe
and burdened it with the debt and taxes
which now rest so heavily upon'us. This
is not wise tor any section. Raids on the
treasury, vast In amount and without right
or honesty, are mastering for the time when
a "Solid South" dominating the democrat
party as it will and must, shall again rule
the two houses of congress. Wild schemes
of reputation, financial chaos, and revolu-
ton, find encouragement on every hand,
and in most of the states the democratic
party is being drawn into q whirlpool OF
fallacious, short-sighted theories. Equal.
ity before the law aud political rights and
liberty, which the recent amendments to the
constitution were ordained to establish, are
becoming only o mockery throughout the
south, and free elections are not permitted
