have just completed seven months
commercial business trip extending TO all
tho principal cities of America, finishing
up in Richmond. Have been a close OBJ
server With business outlook for future
settlement in your beautiful and extensive
country. As ! am Lnglishman, conse-
quen,ly not projudiced. l can conscien-
tiously say, as my observations have been
very minute. that Richmond holds the
palm of any city Of its population or twice
It's size, for site, which has been laid out
with great forethoueht. to spread and
spread Il well: for the best paved
and cleanest kept stroets, best driving
roads and general air of business
prosperity attached to il, all OF
which strikes a stranger in comparison
with other cities on the continent. With
the fine surrounding country there must
be great future for Richmond. As for
myself, though only few days resident
hero and sorry cannot stay longer at
present to enjoy the hospitality OF some Of
the most social, joyisl people it has been
my experience TO meet, / shall on my re.
turn to England and on my journeys not
fail to let foreigners know what they will
miss by not settling IN Richmond. Yours
obcdiently L. l.. HOWARD.

hibitlon next Tuesday near Keller station.
IN tho lower part Of Accomac. They have
made extensive preparations in tho way Of
improving the grounds and adding new
buildings for the accommodation of exhibit.
tors. IL is feared however. that the two
fairs coming so closely together and draw
ing almost all their patronage from the
two Eastern Shore counties will interfere
somew nat with their success. Many think
1t would be better 10 hold one OF them in
