Annual visits.

--Capt. J. B. Keesee, one of the Commissioners of the Revenue for Henrico, who was an apprentice to the saddle and harness-making trade more than half a century since, in the house on Main street, at present occupied by Darracott, Harris & Co., has yearly since that time been in the habit of paying a visit to the scene of his early exploits. Yesterday occurred his fifty-fifty annual visit. The occasion must have been suggestive of some serious reflections on the mutability of time and other matters connected with a sojourn here below.
