THE DANVILLE RAILROAD.

As proofthat we have never overesiimated
the importance of this road, we will make
simple statement. 1t will carry conviction
along with it.
In March the receipts were a little above
$1,000. In April, they had risen above $1,000.
la June, they were upwards of $4,000, and dur
ing the month of August, they were more than
$4,000! When it is recollected that i, has
only gone sixty-fve miles, some idea may be
formed of what it will be when it gets into the
rich portions OF Halifax, Charlotte and Pitt
sylvania, and obtains command Of the tier of
tobacco counties lying along the frontiers Of
North Carolina and Virginia.
We think the public here will justify us for
pushing this road through. At FIRST they were

stone work of this costly and important work
is rapidly approaching completion. The high
walls are up. with their cappings on, nearly
the entire distance between the entrance from
the Basin, in the rear of Messrs. Ludiam g.
Watson's Ware. house. and the termination at
the lower bridge leading to Messrs. Haxaifs
Mills. And more substantial or more beautiful
stone work we have never seen. Nothing
short Of an earthquake can ever derange 50
permanent structure. The walls are very
wide, built Of heavy blocks Of granite, and
cemenied in the best manner. There are two
basins for boats, also with heavy.granile walls
around them, one Immediately below 10th
street and the other immediately above 18th

gaies 10 overcome the difficulties Of the great

Bile to separate the gold. The machinery 10 90
cheap that il will render quartz mining as sim
pie as the common process Of separating allu-
vial gold. We have not the slightest doubt
that there is as much gold in what is called
the gold region Of Virginia, as there is any
where. The only difference between it and
California, or Australia, is, that the gold of the
one is alluvial, while that of the other is in the
quartz. We hope TO learn tina, this machine of
Mr.. Cochran's has reduced the difficulties of
the two nearly to the same level. s.s
We learn that our article made the Dispatch
very popular ia "Old Flue," and that they in
tend to send Us down barrel of "Possum
To-day" in return. As we intend to join the
Sons OF Temperance, nothing could be more
acceptable; so send it on as soon as you
please, and we will be ready to receive it.

Inc pT0"S USSeHSeT VdheU Up.
Our readers will see in the account of the
news brought by the Crescent City, that an
attempt was made at Havana to offer an indig-
nifty to the Commander, Lieut.. Porter of the
Navy. We have heard much of this gentle..
man from persons connected with the Navy
He is the son of Commodore Porler-the same
who fought the Phoebe and Cherub in the har
Dor of Valparaiso, with the little Essex. The
son is said TO inherit a double portion of the
fathers spirit. He is known in the Navy "a
one of the most gallant spirits that was ever in
it-as man who would rival Decatur, or Mel
son, if he only had the opportunity. We have
heard many anecdotes of his determined reso.
luton since he has been in command of this
vessel. One of them was peculiarly charac-
teristic, but whether entirely correct or not, we
do not pretend to say. 1t is to the effect, that
on a certain occasion, his engineer, they being
at sea and thousand miles from land, rebelled
and taking advantage of the peculiar position
of affairs, refused to obey orders. Porter did
not hesitate an instant. He clapped him at
once in irons, calling upon one OF the firemen,
asked him if he could work the engine. He
replied that he could. Then said he, sir, or.
der you TO put on 80 much steam manning the
quantity.l and TO carry this ship into the har-
Dor of New York. The Thing was done ac-
cordingly.
Are we not right in saying that when the go
vernment of Cuba took hold of Captain, Tor
Lieutenant Porter,) they walked up the wrong
