TaegraDhS.

If the Atlantic telegraph has failed, that
between Richmond and Staunton has sue
ceeaed If we have not crossed the ocean,
we have surmounted the Blue Ridge, and
brought Eastern and Western Virginia face
to face. 1t would be the sublime of the
ridiculous to compare the tTo achievements,
bHS as TIE cue .Was completed and the ether
is not 1t may be allowable to mention them
both in the same day Perhaps small en-
terprise that succeeds is as admirable as a
big one that fails Therefore we say-Hur-
rah for the Stanton telegraph Moreover,
by this achievement, Staunton, so long de-
MED any electricity brit thunder storms, is
brought into communion with thirty,two
thousand miles, more o. less, Of electric
wire upon this continent; SO that if the rest
of the porld has lost q prospect of three
thousand miles addition, Staunton has gain
ed thirtytwo thousand more than she had
before. Rich. Dicpatch

Tic New fTarkpt Law.

As was to be expected in an untried ex-
pertinent. there may be some things fonnd
useless, impracticable, and even perncous
IN this new ordinance-some things unpro-
vided for which require Legislation But,
a market law was wanting for the benefit Of
both town and country, as experience has
clearly demonstrated, and we are glad to
find most of our people determined to sus-
tain the Common Council, in giving the pre-
sent one fair trial, and affording ample op-
portunity for the making of such amend
ments as wisdom and experience may sug-
gest. We see 10 reasons for Decentralization
no ground for croaking prophecy Of evil to
GENE.
The Spectator" very properly declares
its intention to see the law fairly tested -
Yet TIE following from its editorial columns
is calculated 10 neutrsiiae its professions of
favor:
while such scenes are Transporting at
the authorized mart all sorts of smuggling
is perhaps going on down town"
If this is SO, the attention of the town
authorities should be directed to the correc-
ton of 50 crying an evil But, if the Spec
tators authority only authorizes a perhaps
At had better have let the matter alone, rs
the expression Of such a suspicion is calcu-
lated to prejudice the cause in the minds of
those already predisposed to look on Il With
dsfavor
To see it shrewdly suspected in the Spec
tator' that smuggling is carried on is calcu-
lated TO cause persons TO think that SNUG
Cling may be carried on With impunity. We
therefore call attention to the prompt manner
in which the vioiators of the law have been
brought to justice We consider that the law
IS necessary and, whatever may be its de-
fects, will, on the whole, operate for the
good OF the community.
