THE WILMOT PROVISO.

While the Whigsssf the north are
telling us that any rev territory that
may be acquired by the present war
will inevitably become slave territory,
and that therefore the war should be
stopped-the Wings of the south play
another tune, and say that any new
territory that may be acquired will in
evi'ably become free territory, and
urge that as reason for stopping the
war. Gen. Waddy Thompson, a
prominent Wing par'izan, who has re.
sided in Mexico for number Of years,
and whose extensive knowledge of
Mexican affairs has been frequently ap-
plauded by the leading organs Of the
Wing party, said, in a recent speech
in South Carolina:
s. II do notsexpress- an opinion light
sly formed, but one upon which would
stake my existence, that whether the
principle Of the WiImot proviso be
enacted by Congress or not, slavery
never will exist in any Slate which

dark paper upon which the present
No. IS printed. 1t was purchased Of
a gentleman in Winchester, recently,
who assured us that it should be of as
good quality as that we have been US

Effect of Railroads. At q meeting at Char
Ioue, Va, on the 7th ult, for the purpose of
prosecuting the Louisa Railroad to the Blue Ridge,
the Hon. William @. Rivcs bore strong testimony
to the beneficial effect of Railroads in appreciat
inc the value of property coming within the spere
of their influence He said that his plantation
on which he1lived was within eight miles of the
present termination Of the Louisa Raj at
Gordonsvilie, and that his lands were now worth
fifty per cent more than they were previous to the
construction of that road. He said the extension
of this road would not only enhance the value Of
land, but it would enable the farmer TO send his
producezlo market at cheaper rates than he now
does, and thereby put more money in his pocket
The twn great staples hitherto relied on by the
farmer, Flour and Tobacco, were often preear-
GUS, and attention must be turnrd to other and
smaller things to keep the farmers pockets supp-
ed with money; his gardens his dairies, and even
his hen houses, could be made to yield profitable
income" Rich. Times -
