VIRGINIA.

Judge John W. Jones, for Several Years a Resident of Terre Haute,

Wiites an Interesting Letter From gtevensburg, Culpepper County, Virginia,

About an Old Settled an .l Historical Locality.

Stevensburg, Culpepper Co Va.) September nth, 1S7S. To the Elitor ot the Gazette:

Culpepper is one of the oldest counties of the old Dominion, having been established in the year 1738. It has borne a prominent part in three wars, that of the revolution, the war of 1812 and our late civil war. In the war of the revolution it furnished eight companies, of eightyfour men each, commanded by the following officers: John Green, Gabriel Jones, John Thornton, George Slaughter, Gabriel Long, John Gilli^on, Abraham Buford and Captain McClanahan, a Baptist preacher. In the war of 1S12U was one cf the first counties in the state to proffer assistance to the general government, and in the late war it is well known that no portion of the country Buffered more from the, invaders of the two armies.

In the Mexican war it took none or no part. Stevensburg, the place from which I write, is located in the southern part of the county, about seven miles from Culpepper court house, and about four miles from Brandy Station the former, as its name implies, is the county seat, and the latter the point from which supplies were furnished to the army of Gen. Grant, during its occupancy of the county in the winter'of 1863-64. Stevensburg, like the county, is decidedly ancient. It is beaufuliy located upon a hill that rises somewhat abruptly from a pianc—here known as the "Flat Ground"—which reminds me of the small prairies ot the We&l. Like most cf the towers of the old dominions, Stevensburg has not increased in population correspondingly with its years, as it now contains fewer inhabitants than it did half a century ago. Still the old town is not without its advantages, not the least of which is its exceeding healthiness. I know of no place cf its size that contains so many old people. In Kentucky they boa of the youthfulr.ess of Col. Craddock and Gen. Combs. Why, here in Stevensburg, I daily sec a man S4 years old who looks like a boy campared with either of these veterans. Day after day he works on his farm from morning till night, both winter and &ummer, and to judge from his appearance, will not only outlast the present century, but the best part of the next. lie has already gone through three wars, and if our soldiers on the frontier make haste and hurry up the next war with Mexico, will be ready for that. This oid^ellow now lives in fifty yards of where he was born. Like old people generally, he is very much given to denying against the follies and extravagancies of the times, and if» a firm believer in what my old fiiend Dr. Reed us'd to term the "demoralization of civilization." Although. well enough posted in what has transpired immediately around him, he has not been much of a traveler, and is not very well versed in what he calls "book larnin." A few days ago in referidg to this morbid curiosity of the people of the present day, he declared that there was no place into which it did not enter, even the churches not being exempt from its constant.exhibition. Reflecting, however, a moment, the old fellow said, "Well, I suppose it is natural, as we all know that when Noah landed with hia ark the people flocked from all parts of the world to see it."

As already stated, no county in Virginia suffered more during the war than Culpeper. Before Gen. Grant's army arrived here in the winter of 1863, il had been swept of all of its stock of every description, and a large portion of its fencing. 'I he timber and land were about all that remained. When that army left on its march to Richmond, pretty much all the timber was destroyed, so that at the conclusion of hostility, Culpeper county looked more like a Wisconsin prairie than the finely timbered region which it. was when the war began. On a number of .he farms, that portion of them which was formerly in timber has not been cultivated, and as a consequence, bushes that begin to assume the shapes of trees have made their appearance. Still it will be a long time before this growth will be of any substantial advantage to the owner of the land: for thcush

Large trees from stumps, as well as acorn?, *rrow. It takes them *n awful loug time to do so.

I have intimated that this place is set on a hill. It is emphatically so, and the view from here is one of the finest of the many fine ones in the state. From the point where I now writy, looking northward, the eye teats upon the high lands of Fauquier county, twenty miles distant, while in a weslwardlv direction the Blue Ridge bounds the horizon with its bold and unbroken outline. The view eastwardlv and southwardly though not so. expensive, is still very fine. Stretching in the just direction, half way to the battle field of the wilderness, and embracing in the latter,is Clark's mountain,where General Lee had his signal stations in the winter of 1S6--4 while his army occupied the south 6ide of the Rapidan river, and that of General Grant lay encamped in this county and picketed the north bank of the stream.

But, however much this prospt ct may please the eye of the I over of nature, to the practical one of the farmer, who badly missed his timber tor fencing and other useful purposes, the effect is altogether different.

As before stated, at the conclusion ot the war scarcely a rail remained in the entire country, the whole of its territory being one vast commons. Even now many portions of it are unfenced still the owners of the land are gradually enclosing it, and I notice marked improvements of the farms in this respect, as indeed in every other in this condition when I was here three years ago. Not only nre

the farms better enclosed, but they are also better tilled, and better grassed, as khown by the crops bf the present season, whether of wheat, corn, or grass. Most of the farmers resort to fertilizers for wheat, which, though expensive, amply repay those who use them, in the increas ed yield and a fine set of grass the following season.

On my return here after the war nothing 6truck me more* forcibly than the change which had taken place in the feel ing8, ideas, and customs of the people. In this respect they were entirely unlike what they were formerly the war hav ing seemingly obliterated their high, social qualities, blunted their energies, and hardened their consciences.

Previous to the commencement of hostilities, I never knew a community where the social qualities of the people was more fully developed, and more freely indulged in, or in whom a higher moral sentiment prevailed. Since this conclusion social enjoyment is almost a thing of the past, and that nice sense of honor whicn was so preeminently found, eeems to have in a great measure faded away with the fortunes ot its professors. I know of no better illustration of the fact that nothing so thoroughly tries man's honesty as pinchine poverty, than the contrasted history of the people of this section beore and since the war. Men, who, years ago, when tortune smiied upon them,and prosperity shielded them with her golden wings, would have refused to do anything bearing the slightest taint of dishonor, now that the evil days of heavily pressed debts have come and they and the probability of their families being turned out of doors without a support, are daily found, as they will be everywhere, under the same circumstances, doing the very things from which they would have turned away in their brighter and better days, with the exclaimation, "Am I a dog, that I should do this thing." Fictitious sales an dishonest bankruptcies and shuffling transactions of every kind, are as common now, as they were uncommon before the war.

Th'e idea seems to be that a man who will not provide for his household is worse than an infidel. Shakespeare says that "The devil can quote scriptures for hispuipo«e." Here they do worse than this they prevent it for theirs.

As to political integrity, where there is so much demoralization among the whites, and &o many depraved and lazy negroes, it is not surprising that it is 3 very scarce article. Votes are openly bought and sold both at the primary and final elections, the price averaging from a drink of whisky to a five dollar bill, according to the size of the purchasers pile, the closeness of the contest, and the tenacity with which the seller holds out. The general price among the darkies, however, is fifty cents—the amount of a days work, with a drink thrown in. This class of voters is always on hand on the day of the election,ready to be bought, well knowing that the emissaries of the rival candidates will as surely be present ready to buy. The only persons who stay away from the polls are those who are really interested in the results.

I am 6orry to write thus about the people of old Culpepper, but what I have stated is true, and "pity 'tis 'tis true." This is one thing that may be said ot the ri&ing generation however, and that is that they are being taught what their .fathers never were, to work for their living. Years ago manual labor in this section was hardly considered respectable, and young people were allowed to grow up in indleness, and of course were unfitted for the responsibilities of life when thrown upon their own resources.

It is to be hoped that when fortune smiles again where she has forwned so heavily of late years, this same people, who has so fallen from th'eir high estate, will return to the good old ways ©f the past, and once more become what they were in their brighter and better days, the salts of the earth.
