The Richmond State pays the following

We reproduce it with pleasure, and join the
State in the hope that the legislature will
re-elect Capt. O'Bannon:
The Legislature cannot do better for the
interests of Virginia than by re-electing
Capt James II. O'Bannon Superintendent
of Public Printing. His administration of
the Office has been specially noticeable, be-
cause of its economy. The printers art is
not so easy as some people suppose, and no
matter how honest Il man may be he can
lose large amounts of money on his printing
contracts unless he understands thoroughly
all the details of printing and such elements
as the cost of all grades OF paper, binding,
&c, which go to swell the aggregate ire
mendously unless the printer is possessed of
an abundant technical knowledge. In all
these details Capt. O'Bannon is proficient.
He has served Virginia as well in this CO
pacity as he served her in her splendid
Stonewall Brigade, where he won his title.
The State knows him, because he was for
years the able and faithful foreman Of the
States composing groom"
