AVALLEY INDUSTEY.-We direct atten-
tion to the advertisementin another column
OF Jas. NJ. Hickerson, manufacturer OF
stoneware, at Strausburg, Va. Mr.. Ii. has
one OF the largest manufactures in the
country, and certainly the largest ir the State,
and the character of his wares stands very
high. He has built up a large trade by his
industry and thorough acquaintance with his
business, and by selling the various articles
OF his manufacture at the smallest possible
profit. One fact that should commend this
establishment to Virginians is that it is a
Valley enterprise, operated BY a native OF
the State, and contributing to the active bu-
siness of the locality where it is established.
Its work is superior to most of that import
ed into the State, and as it is sold on equal
ly as favorably terms, should find general
patronage throughout the Commonwealth,
and especially the Valley. We commend
MIR. Hlckerson and his work to our readers
In and out OF the State.
