The war

has developed many resources of Virginia before comparatively unknown, but nothing more gratifying than the capacity of the State to produce hay for home consumption. Hitherto we have been almost entirely dependent upon the North, our people preferring to patronize the Yankees rather than looking to Virginia for an article so necessary for the raising of stock. We saw yesterday, at the hay depot of the Quartermaster's Department on the Basin, a vast quantity of long forage well baled up, and more arriving by the boats. The mountain country penetrated by the Central and Danville Railroads produces hay of good quality and in vast quantity. We predict that the North will be deprived of that profitable branch of its trade henceforth and forever.
