Election or state oaicers.

The election Of State officers by the Legisla-
ture came of on Thursday last. Mr.. Johnston
having resigned the First Authorship. George
w. Clutter was elected TO fill that Office. Mr..
Cutters name is entirely new to Us, but we
learn from the Richmond papers that he has been
first clerk liz the Auditors Office for some years
past He is therefore, no doubt, well qualified for
his duties. We regard the principle of promo
ton, acted upon in this election, as worthy Of
general adoption. Instead of broken down poll
ticians we shall get experienced officers, and
moreover, the hopeof advancement will stimulate
subordiuates TO increased fidelity.
The incumbents Of the other offices were ro-
elected for the next term, without opposition, ex-
cept the Superintendent and Store7keeper of the
Peni,entiary. 'fhe reelection of Mr.. Morgan TO
the former Office, opposed, for the reason that
he had recommended convict known as "Red
Boot Smith" to the clemency of the Executive.
This somewhat famous individual, who derived
his title from the sign formerly displayed before
his shop in Richmond, was sentenced to the Pen
itenhary for running, off slaves to the North
Several members Of the House intimated that the
mans subsequent good conduct justified the re-
commentator, and if so, the opposition of others
to Morgan's election borders on fanaticism. The
matter, however, was regarded Of sufficient i'm
portance to require committee Of investigation
before the election could procefd.

Central Rniirond Bill.

When the bill making loan to the Central
Railroad Company was up before the House Of
Delegates on Friday, an amendment moved by
Mr.. VERIFY was adopted, requiring the Company
to pay for the four miles of road on this side of
Mechum's River, which has been constructed on
State account The act authorizing the Blue
Ridge Railroad required the Board of Public
Works to construct the road from the Eastern
base of the mountain, sat or near Blair Park.p-
The Board accordingly commenced at Mechum's
River, but now the Legislature undertake to say
that they should have begun four miles further
West. The cost Of these four miles is $l26, 600,
and the Central Railroad Company are allowed
five years in which to pay it, We should think the
question one not within the province of the House
TO decide, but the enemies Of the Central Rail
road have the power to exact payment under the
penalty of withholding further appropriations
1t is probable, however, that the Company will
not accept the act with such a condition annexed.

The Greenbriar and Monroe Routes.

The Report Of Mr.. Fisk, ChiefEngineer ofthe
Covirgton and Ohio Railroad, is devoted chiefly
to an examination of the comparative advantages
of the two rival routes. These routes diverge z
or 8 miles west of Covington, and unite again in
the Valley Of the Greenbriar river, 5 miles above
its mouth. e The distance between the two points
is 81 Is miles by the Monroe, and 54.l by the
Greenbriar roue-making difference of q miles
in favor of the former; but upon the latter the
grades are easier and the curyaturcs less.
On each of the routes there are sixteen tunnels,
the aggregate length of which on the Monroe
route is $3.50 feet, and on the Greenbriar route
1910 feet. The longest tunnel on each route is
at the summit of the Allegheny. MIR. Fisk esti-
mates the time necessary to complete the longest
tunnel, which is $500 feet at years. and states
that all the tunnels are through material easily
worked.
The cost of graduation is estimated at S., 05l,-
o4S on the Monroe route, and $4,000 73 on the
Greenbriar route.
Mr.. Fisk gives the preference to the Greenbri
ar route because consequence oits easier grades
and fewer curves, it can be traversed in shorter
time than the other; can be worked at less cost;
its capacity for the transportation Of tonnage is at
least Is per cent greater than the other, in con-
sequence of the larger loads locomotive can haul
eastward over its heaviest grades; and, owing 10
this difference in the capacity of the two routes,
the Monroe would sooner require double track.
The larger the business, the greater will be the
difference in favor of the GreeEbrar route.

Boys at Play.

One evening last week our spirits were refresh
ed by witnessing party of boys in meadow
near town, playing the game called "town ball.
Two ''boys Of a larger growth" who were
through with the labors of the week and had laid
aside care Cor the hour joined in the sport and rel
ished it, apparently, as keenly as the others. If
time had permitted we would have asked to be
taken in ourselves, and tried to realize for brief
space the aspiration of the song,
would were a boy again
The most notable figure on the groundw that
Of little urchin who from his appearance aud the
skill with which he used the shialah in striking
the ball, evidently had a good deal of Irish blood
in him. He was about the smallest boy of the
party, but he acted his part well, and with de-
gree of philosophic gravity that contrastcd udi-
crousy with the boisterous merriment of his com
panions. The scene has left most agreeable i'm
preston upon our minds, which is marred, how
ever, by one incident. A boy, who is probably
proud of being something Of bully, accused an
other of playing falsely and finally called him in
plain terms liar. The game went on-no fight
ensued-but that word grated harshly on our ears,
and whatever others may have thought, our res
pect for the boy that used il was not increased
And now, boys, take word Of friendly advice
play fairly and don't use bad words, or quarrel and
fight. .eH cl4t. 1854.

The European News.

The news by the Pacific gives ne positive an
swer to the question Of Peace or; war, but leaves
lils3e room for doubt on the subject The Gar
has replied evasively to the last overture Of the
Your Powers, from which we infer that he is only
seeking time to complete his warlike preparations.
Both England and France seem to have conclu-
ded that war is inevitable, and whenit does come
the tempest viii doubtless break with fury pro-
portioped to the time in which it has been gath

tions, and tho whole world will feel the shock
No man can foretel the consequences. Existing
governments will be destroyed and new nations
arise upon their ruins. That Russia can accom-
plish anything with such odds against her, is
hardly possible. Turkey will besustained by the
united power of England and France, to drag ont
feeble existencea little longer aud ultimately
fall into the hands Of one or the other of her allies
Probably a contest will arise between these allies
in reference 10 the influence claimed BY them 70
spectivcy in the East, and lead to further warfare
But whatever happens, we trust that England
may maintain her supremacy We view her pro-
gress, whenever she has right on her side, not
only withou. Jealousy, but with feelings of graft

christianity and constitutional government follow

rrans-AlIeghany Bank.

The Legislature last winter incorporated an in
dependent Bank at Jacksonville, in the South
west part of this State, to be called the Trans AL
leghaby Bank. Coupon bonds to the amount Of
$4,000 have been deposited with the State
Treasurer and notes issued thereupon, but the
Bank seems to be without local habitation, there
being no banking establishment at Jacksonville,
and consequently no place where the notes are re-
deemed. The Richmond and Lynchburg Banks
refuse to receive the notes, although the brokers
of Baltimore take them on the same terms as 9TH
er Virginia money. Messrs. Selden, Withers Il
Co., Bankers of Washington city, wore supposed
TO be largely interested in the concern, but they
have published denial, and Elk Governor Floyd
is now understood to be the principal stakeholder.
