The people OF Western Virginia, tired of wait.
ing the movements of us in the East, have deter
mined TO push the project of Railroad in the
West.

Lewisburg Chronicle, the Eastern portion of our
State gets pretty rap the knuckles"

the Commonwealth cndeavoring TO make Rich.
mond their market, for the sale of their produce,
I'VE should at least give them aid in the mat.
ter,b by trying To meet them halfway.
Let them fail to get an opening to the Richmond
market, aud our word for it, they will never rest
until they aid the Baltimore and Ohio railroad in
getting the Right of Way. This is matter that
our citizens ought to look to, we have doubt
they will; after the Investigations which have re-
sontly been made the subject Of the Central
Improvement.
Ii is seen now. thai the East alone will not
have TO contribute to the proposed Improvement ::

will do, by exertng every nerve, if necessary to
cooperate with the West. We have given IN
