Mr. Pelouze, in a communication to The Richmond Virginian, asks the cooperation of the farmers in New Kent county. He says that it will facilitate the work if obliging citizens of New Kent county courthouse, Toana, and Slatersvllle will cut a few posts — a half-dozen at each point will be enough, he says- and leave them here they can be obtained by the signposters.
