ed, Mr.. Sterrett (Whig) is running, 10 opposi-
tion to Messrs. Snodgrass and Lewis, Demo
rats;) but our information does not lead us to
anticipate the election of the Wing candidate.
Ia regard to the Richmond district it is unne-
cessary for US to say anything. Our opponents
manifest great confidence 10 the reelection OF
Mr.. Caskie but as they have often been de-
ceved in their calculations heretofore, we at
tach no great weight to their Vaccinations on
this occasion. We shall not undertake to argue
the matter with the Democracy, but content our
selves with calling the attention of our Wing
friends 10 the district and particularly IN this
city, to the necessity, of prompt, energetic and
efficient exertions to bring out the Wing strength
on Thursday next. But little time is now left
for action. and what remains to be done must be
done quickly.

TO The Editors Of The Tunes.
Gentlemen: The advocacy of the city Of Rich
mond making a subscription to aid the Central
Railroad Company by the press, has won golden
opinions from the reading community here, and
surprise has been felt that on subject of such
vast importance to the future destiny of Rich
mond, there should be- two opinions enter
tanned by any portion of her citizens know
that you are strong and decided friends OF
internal improvements, but possibly may be
opposed to the city taking 100000 in the
stock of the Central road. l firmly believe
that such a step now will be the browning point
in her fortuue-it will ensure the steady, rapid
and early completion of the entire road to the
Ohio, which, if not done by the bold and liberal
move, which the good people of Richmond
hope aud pray are about to take many long years
will pass before it is consummated; and the cur
rents of that mighty and enrichipg trade will
have sought out and fully established other chan
neIs besides one so desirable and advantageous
this great Central one must be, if not delayed
and crippled too long. The bugLear of enormous
taxes, of course, will be held up to Brighten as
many as possible but what signifies the fact of
doubling ones taxes, if his capacity to pay is
quadrupled! When went to farming my indebt>
eduess was several thousand dollars more than
my land would bring credit, and the frs,
thing did was to purchase several hundred dollar
worth of grass seed and plaster (coyer seed selling
for SIS per bushe and plaster about SIS per ton
If had not pursued this system. but had per-
mitted my indebtedness to deter me from
purchasing the necessary materials for i'm.
provement, l would have been inevitably forced,
to sell out and seek home elsewhere. What
will the debt of Richmond he to her, when the
and connection is made with all the Southern
and Southwestern roads-and the Central, bring.
ing the trade of the richest count ry in the world
| by the shortest aud best route to the Atlantic,
uniting with roads for Nashville, Lexington,
, Louisville, Cincinnati, &C.? What citizen of
| Richmond, what genuine son of Virginia, would
not swell with feelings of pride, ut the consum
nation of so noble and glorious an object! Who
would rot be willing to be taxed much higher
to accomplish so great good! l do most sin
cerey hope that when the 23rd arrives but few
will be found to prevent Richmond taking that
bold step, which will settle her destiny.
Let them look around them and see the noble
example of the little towns of Lynchburg and
Alexandria, in our State, and then look to Bal
timore and the Northern cities; what they have
done and are now doing, ought to convince all
what is the true policy of Richmond. A.
