- The Lynchburg Express argues the
question of the Orange 81 Alexandria r Railroad
very sensibly with the Lynchburg Virginan.
We are not of those who suppose that Rail
road routes are to be controlled and directed
as it pleases localities /; but we are of those
who deem it to be proper to proceed with our
public works prudently and wisely-construct-
ing first those which are most important to the
prosperity of the State at large, and leaving
those which do not occupy that position for
future consideration and outlay. The Express
takes both the liberal and the just view, and it's
sentiments towards Petersburg and Norfolk
and Richmond are such as are at once CRATE
dul to them and just to the commerce of the
Suite. The Express might have alluded to the
corporate subscription of this city to the road
beyond Lynchburg, as well as the noble enter
prise of Petersburg, in the South Side Road,
as entitled to consideration in Lynchburg.
