Southern Mail, during. the interesting period OF
the Session of Congress, must justify an appro-
priation of public money, or other measures Tor
the accomplishment OF the object.
The Editor of the Arena may well doubt the
truth ofhis own observations, when he charges
me with jealousy of the projected Rail Road to
Potomac Creek, which is at this moment closed
10 navigation by the freeze ola single night AS
to the location of the road through Dumfries, it
is altogether unimportant; that place, like its
neghbor, Fredericksburg, has long since ceased
to rank in the geographical enumeration of the
fiourishing towns of our country.
Ifa Rail Road could be obtained on the said
route, with depots at convenient distances, how
easy would it be for the farmers and merchants
from Culpeper, Fauquier and other adjacent
counties. to choose their market. 1t is well
known that Flour, Wheat, and Tobacco, are al
ways lower in Fredericksburg than in the Dis
frict of Columbia; and even the little town OF
Occoquan usually bids higher for Wheat The
transmission of the Mail would admit of compe-
ttion for the contract, which has been, for many
wears, the monopoly of the Steamboat Compa-
ny-no one caring to invest capital in an uncer-
tain opposition The Mail would be carried
from Fredericksburg to Washington, with ease,
in five hours, and, if necessary, in less time
Thousands have been appropriated by the Gov
