Virginia Historical Society.

The public has been appraised, through
the proceedings Of the Virginia Historical
Society, which have beer published regu-
larly in our local columns, Of the extended
interest which has been manifested in its
welfare during the past few months, and OF
the valuable accessions which have been
made to its collections and OF the great in
crease of its membership.
In tastefully-printed pamphlet before
us, entitled, reorganization OF the Virginia
Historical Society; officers and Members;
With a List of Its Publications" we are
informed of the vital progress which has
been made by this useful and honorable in
shtution during the recent period OF resus-
citation. Exclusive of the array of distin-
guished names in the classes OF "Honor-
ary" and Corresponding members
borne upon its lists, we find the sustaining
'Tife" and "Annual" members to
number more than four hundred, the
majority OF whom, we are informed,
are recent additions. We learn from
tlItuIU-iclltI llIdl IL II lnt hOllN VI thN
Society to increase its paying membership
TO the number of one thousand or more.
Then a surplus fund might be laid aside,
and the continuous successful operation OF
the Society absolutely secured. It's collec-
ton of original manuscript materials for
history is important and extensive. a
series Of publications OF essential value in
the calculation Of American history is con-
| fidently expected. The first of the series
1.-THE Letter-B0ok Of Governor AleXan-
der Spotswood, Covering the Term OF his
Colonial Administration in Virginia-1710-
1722-a Marked Period in the Development
OF the Resources and Manufactures Of the
Colony and of IFS Progress lis in pro-
gress Of preparation for the press, and will
be ready for delivery TO the members OF the
Society by the LIST Of May next. Don't let
the good work falter. Let each member
and friend Of the Society do what he or she
can in influencing an increase OF its mem
bers, and we are confident the thousand
may easily be secured.

New York---William L. Royal.


Our sometime townsman WILLIAM l..
royal, Esq, is not content with the lau-
rels he has won as a lawyer-not few, by
the way. He has turned his attention in
his new home in New York city to the task
of reuniting the two wings of the Demo-
cratic party. To.tbis end he has recon-
mended, and the Young Mems Democratic
Association has adopted, the Richmond
plan of primary elections and the EUe-
ming Post has endorsed it. Ii Mr.. royal
shall succeed in this good work he will de-
serve well OF his country. He Is young,
talented, energetic, remarkably clear
headed, fair-minded, logical, and not often
misled by prejudice. We hear with plea
sure of his labors in New York.
