Five of the largest counties in the State have in public meeting of their citizens adopted resolutions honorable to their humanity and their patriotism. Their examples should be followed universally. Old Augusta especially takes strong ground.

Albemarle, Buckingham, Louisa, Augusta and Monroe lead the way in these honorable resolutions. If some other counties which send their produce to this city would imitate their example, the prospect here would wear a more cheerfully.
