Through from Richmond.

A load OF passengers including DR.. Gra-
ham. Col. Fontaine and several State SEN
ators, came through from Richmond to
Staunton, on. the GERS, on Wednesday last.
They arrived here about dark-some 4
hours in advance Of the stage. In some
places, the rails were not laid, and they
had to walk, but it is considered through
trip. This event has long been looked for
By our people. Promise after promise has
been made and broken, until now it really
seems we are to have Railroad connec-
ton with the metropolis. But the pleas
ufe Of this realization is considerably al
loyed, by the fact, that the faI mers, who
looked for the cars at this depot, as a great
commercial millennium, cannot enjoy any
benefits arising from decrease on the
wagon charges Of transportation. That
stupendous folly. and monument of cxtra,.
agance, tn. temporary track, precludes
the possibility Of heavy freight being car
ried through to Richmond; and conse-
quently, that it may amour, to prohibi-
ton, the Directory have raised the rates
Of transportation. We do not profess to
know anything about the reasons that have
prompted the Directory in their proceed
ings; but we do know, that whereas, to
induce the people Of this county to vote
the tax Of $4,000, it was urged as an ar
gument that flour would be carried to
Richmond for so cts. per barrel, and that
now. according to these rates, it will be
NO less than it has heretofore been. The
same with all agricultural and farm pro-
ducts--as we'll as stock and manures.-
These things look badly, but we do not
desire to eliminate without being fully
acquainted with ell the facts in the prem
ises, and therefore we shall say no more.
In another column will be found a sensi-
BILE Communication on the subject.

Board cf Public Works.

We publish in another column, an article
from the Enquirer, under the above cap
ton. every line Of which we most heartily
endorse. 1t is notorious fact that from
the very hour the Stanton Convention
nominated DR.. Graham for the Office he at
present holds, the entire Jrhig press of the
State setup hideous howl, which has been
continued with increasing bitterness up to
this time. Nothing that the Board can do
involves redeeming feature in their esti-
nation. The Richmond Wing, followed
by the party slaves aud automatohs of the
country press, has been unceasing in its
warfare upon the personal and Official in
tsgrity of the Board, and e.. the s;icers
connected there's it'll From the hour the
Democratic Commissioners were snnounc-
ed to be elected, that paper has been reso-
lutely at work to prejudice all the great
improvements ofthe State-to throw obsta-
cles in the way Of necessary appropriations
lin order doubtless to pave the way for a
charge that the Board has failed to do its
duty in pushing on those mproyements.-
That paper is, in great measure, respon-
sible for the defeat OF the Coyipgton Bill.
What could have influenced to this course,
is mystery 10 us, unless the damnation OF
the Board is considered by the Wing Of
paramount importance TO the prosperity Of
Richmond aud the State at large. Having
had their wishes gratifed inthe temporary
defeat Of this great State work, the editors
doubtless are rejoicing with savage delight
over the MAIN they have inflicted on the
operations of the Board. This is truly an
enviable position for Virginians to occupy
kissing The very dagger that draws the
life blood from their mother.
But we trust the wound that has been
thus Inflicted on the operations of the Board
will be speedily healed. We have no doubt
that an extra session the Legislature will be
called, and that representatives, after fresh
communion with their constituents will 20
to Richmond imbued with the proper spi.
rit, and that the difficulties which so en-.
bsrra ssed the action Of the last session will
be obyiated.
