The following views are from an enlightened

For the Enquirer.
VIRGINIA.
Virginia is the centre Of the Union. The
shortest line from the Atlantic TO the Ohio, strikes
the very heart Of the West. Al Guyandolte, The
Athens extension OF the Ohio canal through The
vsey Of the HockiEg-lhe descending wealth Of
the upper Ohio and Of the Muskinsum-he
main stem Of the Ohio canal terminating at The
the mouth OF the Scioto-he Xenia and Gin
cnnai Railroad and The Mad river i'm
provements-will all be feeders Of the cen
iral highway through Virginia 10 the At
lantic. Without any outlet through Virginia,
these immense arteries Of trade and commerce
must throw their wealth into other channels
The Richmond and Ohio Railroad will meet al
Guyandotle the two millions Of dollars which
Cincinnati is willing 10 advance To The Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad 10 continue that road IRON
The Little Kanawha TO that city-ior |, is a hun
ded miles nearer, and it is in the straight line for
Cape Charles and Cape Henry. Twenty-Five
counties on the Southern slope of The Ohio
containing a population Of over five hundred
thousand watered by the Muskingum, the Hook
ing, the Sciolo The Miami and other streams,
concentrating al be very mouth Of The Virginia
works, will supply an incaculable amount Of
exports and imports. AT Cincinnati, this great
Gordon Of national strength and State and indivi-
dual wealth, will branch TO Nashville and TO 81.
Louis; and these again being great centres q
trade, necessarily seeking some communication
with the East, will converge at Cincinnati, and
| will terminate al the mouth Of the Chesapeake,
instead OF The narrow inlet, two hundred and
twenty miles above. The wealth Of The great
valley-world Of the West and South must flow,
under This suspicious movement, through The
public works OF Virginia The hrcng Of travel
pouring from This side Of the Republic will make
the stock OF the Richmond and Fredericksburg
Railroad the richest in The world, and will ne
ccssarly induce-compel, the construction OF this
road through 10 Washington. The high desti-
ny Of Virginia stands clearly unfoIded in the has
