Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Nugae, by Nugator: Or, Pieces in Prose and Verse
Court day! What an important day in Virginia! What a day of bustle and business! What a requisition is made upon every mode of conveyance to the little metropolis of the County! How many debts are then to be paid! - how many to be put off! Alas! How preponderate the latter! If a man says, I will pay you at Court, I give up the debt as hopeless, without the intervention of the la. But if Court day be thus important, how much more so is March Court! That is the day when our candidates are expected home from Richmond, to give an account of their stewardship; at least it used to be so, before the number Of our legisla tors was lessened, with a view of facilitating the trans action Of business, and with a promise of shortening the sessions. But, somehow or other, the public chest has such a multitude of charms, it seems now to be more impossible than ever to get away from it.
