These columns, in the last fe v

number Of good people wasting time
and valuable newspaper space in an
endeavoT to devise some financial
scheme to supplant the sub treasury
plan. While these efforts are no
doubt honest they have 30 far been
futile. The people have decided to
push the sub-treasury plan to final
conclusion and will admit of M side
tracks. Sixtean State Alliances
have declared for the sub-,reasury
plan, and their action will be follow
ed by all others. There are also fully
seven hun dred papers advocating the
plan vigorously and intclligently

IL has been demonstrated since tne "a.

in the ground hog" superstition. Duo
Colonel Henry Fitzhugh, whose favor1te pas
time and pet amusement for many years was
trapping and hunting. is perhaps as famlllar
with the habits and manners OF wild varnllhts
as any man in Tidewater. and he recently re-
yealed the fact that ground hogs do, not re-
main in winter quarters till the "a day OF
Fe oruary: but that they, like raccoons' .opos-
sums. foxes. &c, ramble and seek their ac-
c,stomed prey continuously during all the
twelve months of the year. The theory OF
Colonel Fitzhugh, based on long years OF ex;
perience in trapping and sporting with Wild
came is n big set back 10 the six weeks OF
severe weather" theory so popular with the
masses.
The weather here is quite warm for the sea
son. and we have had a great deal OF rain,
which has made the roads almost impossible
for vehicles The warm, moist weather,
however. has been quite favorable for hand
ling tobacco. and the farmers have. generally
availed themselves of that fact and. notwlth-
standing the fearful state of the roads, are
marketing their tobacco. This county Is well
adapted TO bright" tobacco, and the growers
are realizing good prices. This county also
has coal granite and other minerals, and all
we need is a railroad through it.
