Volumes of Great Value and Con-
tanning Signatures of Interest.

The State Library has received through
Mr.. Armstrong, one OF the Board OF Trus-
tees Of Tufts College, Massachusetts,
some very valuable and highly interesting
documentary archives of the Revolution
airy period Of Virginia.
They comprise three volumes OF receipts
for various services rendered In the field
and in the councils of the State and for
supplies furnished toward the sustenance
OF the cause OF liberty. The signatures
to the receipts include the most famous
and prominent worthless OF the period, and
the period covered is September, 1l75-
February. 17S2.
The volumes have unique value, doubly
In that they present evidence OF service,
not elsewhere found-as well as sigma
lures which are constantly sought for by
those interested in autographs.
These volumes were discovered In the
library OF Tufts College few weeks ago
by Rev. Arson Titus. ID. D., and IL was
through his petition to the trustees of
the college that they were returned TO
the proper depository-our State Library.

Dow Dunbar whose insanity was noticed
in this correspondence last week, has
been taken to the asylum at Marion. He
became perfectly rabld. trying TO fight
almost every one who came within his
reach. and as he Is heavy and robust
ne was dangerous. At times II took four
or five strong men to manage him. IL Is
thought that the cause OF hts insanity
was partly due to disappointed love, as
he was known to be strongly attached
to a young lady who did not reciprocate
the passion. Hfs mother is aged and
infirm, and the misfortune OF her son
has completely Frustrated her.
