SEB OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. pemseiden nat enneitae cant Our exchanges im Maryland, Virginia, and this District, are all apog over railroad matters, and we trast (hat something tangible will come from so much discussion, oud the ventitation of so many projects. Alex. A. A. Stuart, of ‘Virginia, is out in a letter setting forth the merits ef the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad enterprise, and pouting out the special interest this city basin its completion, im view of the Tecent statement of Senator Sherman that if More adequate railroad communications are not furnished to Washington the seat of Gov- ernment will be speedily removed to some more accessible point. The line known as the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway (from Richmond to the Onio river ‘Was projected some years ago, but bas been in- terrupted by the war and otter causes. This line was designed to extend from Richmond to 3 point in the Kanawha valley, near Charles. ton, where it would bratca, aud on line ex- tend to the mouth of the Kanawha, and the other to the mouth of Sandy river. The — } of these branches was iutende! to connect t west river, and the other to eifec! a similar contection with the Kentucky system of roads east of the Ohio. ‘The main stem Bas been constructed, and is Bow wm successful operation from Richmond to Covington, in Alleghany county, a distance | of 24 miles. Another section of about 22 miles, West of Covington, and extending to the White Sulphur Springs, is now under contract, and | the larger portion of the heavy work, including the tunnel through the Alleghany, has been executed and the contracts require the work to be completed to the White Sulphur by the Ist of July. 1-68 A good dealot work has also been done west of the White Sulphur, anda | new company bas recently been organized, under the joimt auspices of Virginia and West Virginia, to complete the entire work according to the original design, as above stated, within three years. As Mr, Stuart poimts ort, the general direction | of this rosd approximates am air line from | Richmond and Washington to the central por- tiom of Obio, and thence to St. Louis. This | Toute is, therefore, the shortest between the Esstand West. But this is not the only ad- vantage which it enjoys over its competitors, ‘The survey develops the remarkable fact that im passing eastwardly from the Obio to the summit line on the Alleghany, (the direction im which the beavy freights would move,) the MAXIMUM grade is 29% feet to the mile. When this grade is compared with the elevation of ile feet per mile, which the Baltimore and Obio road bas toencounter, the advantag-s of the Virginia ronte will be readily understood. At must also be remembered that the Virginia Toad passes through a country abounding in elements of wealth, from the Blue Ridge to the Obio. The mineral springs will annually at tract thousands of passengers irom the Atlan. te cities and trom the Valley of the Mississip- | Pi. The coal fields, iron mines, salt well And forests will supply almost unlimited freight trom every station, sud thus swell the Profits of the profits of the stockholders and give activity to business. And to crown all the climate along the entire line is pertectly health. tul im summer and autumn. and so mild in Winter 4s to Temove all apprehension of serious obstructions by snow or ice. ‘Mr. Stuart urges that the first step on the part of the people of Washington and the West should be to push the maim line of the Chesa- Peake xnd Ohio road through to its Western Tminus at the mouth of the Kanawna and the mouth of Big Sandy. After this shall have | been done. and the current of trade and trave | turned im this channel, they can compiete the | auxiliary improvements by supplying the de- | ficient link between Harrisonburg and Staun- ton, and if they choese, py a short, direct road from Washington, w intersect the Manas:as Toad near the mountain, and thas avoid the in- creased distance of the rovte by Alexandria, | When these roads are completed, Wasuington ‘Will no longer be hable to the reproach of tu- accessibility from the West. Her avenues will be open to all the Western and Northern States, and she will be im direct communication with | the eastern terminus of tne trans-continental | railway, aud through that road with Sin | Francisco. And when the connecting links | between Louisville aud the Virginia aud Teo- | besse railroad, by way of Camberland Gap, sball bave been completed, Washington wii bave unbroken lites of communication with the Southwest, and all its ramified syst=ms of railroads and rivers. Then. instead of being isolated and cut off from the remote parts of | the continent. the Federal Metropolis will be the centre of converging roads, and more ac- crssible from the South, Southwest, and Wezt | than any other Eastern city. | The remaining point to be considered 1s, how | can these lines of communication be secured } Jn Mr. Stuart's opinion it would be but fair | tor the National Government, in view of the nstiomsl importance of the Chesapeake and bio road, to extend to it substantial assistance, and he suggests that it could be done simply by & loan of its credit. The Chesapeake and Obio road bas already expended some six or eight millions of dollars in the prosecutioa of the Work. If the United States Government will now indorse its bonds to the extent of ten mil- lions of dollars, payable in thirty years, and take a mortgage on the whole work to indem- Bify itself, the whole road can at once be put under contract, and completed within two years. The only difficulty will be in regard to tue payment of interest on the bonds while the work is im progress. After the work is done there can be no doubt of the ‘ability of the com. pany to pay the interest, and ultumarely redeem the principal. Here the city of Washington, he says, might render efficient survice, by as- suming or guaranteeing the interest for three | years, by which time it is to be presumed the | Toad will be in active and successful operation. The idea bere suggested by Mr. Stuart of | Fuarantecing the interest bas been successtally carried out in France, bat it bas there taken the shape, we believe, of a guarantee of in. | ‘™ terest by the Government upon a general rail- way system for the country. That isto say, a | charter Was granted toa company to build a network of railroads over the couatry, greatly | increasing the railroad facilities of France, and ‘he Government guaranteed the payment of a Certain interest on the bonds; but the earnings | Of "he Toads proved ample for the payment of | the interest, and we believe the Government | was never called uw: of such vital importance to us, by guaranteeing & portion of the interest or otherwise: but we think it will be building on sand to expect that | Government will afford any money-aid in its construction. This idea bad better be dis. missed im the start, as it will only give rise to | false hopes, and expectations that can never be realized. All that we epect from Congress is diberal charter privileges. Tue Crean InsvReection.—Despite the tstements put forward to the effect that the ban insurrection is making progress, weare suchined to bold to the belief already expressed, that it bas none of the elements of success, and that its suppression may be looked for at any moment. This opinion we know is held here by those well-posted in Cuban aftairs, and who bave no personal or political interest to bias their judgments. In Plorids, the Supreme Court of the State bas unspimously decided that Lieutenant Goy. ernor Gleason bas mo grounds upon which to Temove the impeachment contest to the United Saws Court, and bis counsel has abandoned bis case, ae ‘The business of sugar refining has taken its piace among the most important of the indas- tries of Battimore. Four large sugar refineries are altvady im operation; two new enes are preparing for business, and two others are in | <ontempistion. | bustin | the Exchequer and Sir Roundeli bark recently landed at Charleston a company of twe hundred fifty able-bodied German mechanics and farm Iaborers, who were on ther way to the Western States, via Balumore. Efforts, however, have been made in Casrleston to induce these industrious foreigners to remain inSouth Carolina, The newspapers in Charies- ton state that mechanics are greatly needed throughout the upper part of South Carolina, And that permanent employment would begiv- en to those who would remain. In reference to the farm laborers, the following plan is sug- Rested . In the most fertile and healthy sections of the South, thousands of acres are lying tile, and in these regions a German family could be employed for a year for the cost of their food and clothing aad ten acres of land. These ten acres would be worked by the laborer during the second year,and thus a large quantity of land would be brought into cultivation. The necessity of retaining these two hundred aud firy Germans by any feasible plan is pr Upon the attention of the citizens of Soath Car colina, The same views im reference to the set- ‘lement of emigrants Lave ybeen expressed in Mississippi, and resolutions inviting strangers to Madisou county were passed at a large meet- ing of citizens, Beld im the county town, Can. ton Miss KEtLow CLosiNe — Concret.— e the uniavorable weather the concert of he Kellogg troupe Inst night was largely and ble attended.
