va. Central Railroad cotusa nj,

Au interesting question discussed among
some Of our farmers is, whether the Rail-
road Company will be prepared tosearry
the large hay crop raised this year. to
Redmond. This, in many aspects, is an
important question. The people Of Rich-
mond have been porting thousands, aud
we might almost say. millions. of dollars,
into the lap Of New England for hay
The counties of Augusta, Bath, Allegheny
and Rockbridge have vast surplus Of this
article, which they would gladly send TO
Richmond, where they could realize $40
per ton for it. The construction of the
railroad and the completion OF the sunnel
will almost entirely destroy the home mar-
ket for hay. We must have market for
this commodity. Can the Railroad carry
hay 10 Richmond We have no hesita-
ton in saying it can. and that too at prices
which will not deter the farmers from
sending. 1t is necessary, however, that
the company should prepare for the trans.
portation. Our object in adverting 10 the
subjects is, 10 direct their attention to it,
We hope Messrs. Baylor and Carpenter
will bring this subject before the Board Of
Directors, that something may be done in
the way of preparation before the season
fol- selling hay arrives. If the large amount
Of money which is annually payed to the
North for hay were expended in the heart
of Virginia, there would be percep,ble
change in the prosperity Of this part Of
the State. If the farmers Of this region
could ge! the Richmond price for hay.
batting reasonable charge for transposta-
ton, they would find it tt most profitable
business that many Of them could engage
in. Their lands would be greatly i'm.
proved by rest from cultivation.
1t is time we were studying to live in
dependently of the North. and this is one
Of the thousand instances in which we
could.
We respectfully inyts the attention OF
the Presidents and Directors, aud the Su-
perinteudant of the road to this subject.

Kansas-Nebyaska Bill and the Missouri
Compromise,

Kansas-Nebraska Bill and the Missouri
Compromise,
An erroneous impression exists upon the
minds Of some, as to the condition Of the
territory South Of the Missouri Compro-
mise line previous 10 the passage Of the
Nebraska-Kansas bill.
The Western territories were acquired
by the blood AMI treasure of the whole
country, and are held in trust, by The
general government, for the benefit of all
the States. When Missouri was admitted
into the Union, restriction was imposed
upon the Southern States, by which they
were prohibited from removing with their
slave properly into the territory North Of
given line, called the Missouri Compro-
mise line. light which they had enjoyed
be fore the enforcement Of this linerof re-
striction upon them. The territory South
of that line. was not guaranteed to the
South by. the compromise, but was left
opel to the occupation OF the North equal
y with the South II the North obtain
a majority i'll il, when it adopts constltu-
ton, as a State, they will exclude slave
property South Of the line also. The
North was guaranteed the territory North
Of the line, and was left to take equal
chances with the South in the territory
South Of the line. This is what the South
regarded degradation and gross injustice.
The NebraykA-Kansas bill removed this
odious and unequal restriction, aud opened
up the territory North Of the line, and
placed it upon the same basis with that
South. If a majority of the settlers in the
territory North Of the abrogated line
should prefer, when they form aState con-
stitu,ion, TO retain slaves they can insert a
provision to protect them. II majority
shall be opposed, then they can insert a
provision prohibiting slavery. This is
just and equal. But. TO guarantee the ter.
r,ory North O. the line to the North, and
to leave that South 10 CIR equal chance
between the North and the South,
is unequal and unjust, and implies an in
feriority in the Southern States and is a
domination on the part Of the North.
Let no Southerner, therefore, be deceiv.
ed into the belief that the territory South
Of the line was guaranteed To- the South,
and that the removal Of the line was an
encroachment upon the rights ofsbe North.
The North enjoyed privilege under that
compromise, which was not sustained by
the. constitution and which she South did
not willingly allow.
