W. y. BELL. Clerk.

This arrangement is equally useful to the men
of business. as they can, at any moment, see
whether the produce they may be expecting is in
transitu or in Depot. For example, citizen of
Wythe county writes TO his Commission Mer
chant to sell his crop of wheat snying he will
deliver it at the Wytheville Depot by some day
a few weeks ahead. The day before the time
arrives the merchant ieegraphs TO the Wythe.
vile Depot, finds that the delivery has been
made; he then calls on the President or Superin
tendent to know if provision has been mnde to
transport the wheat; the Superintendent refers
TO his last report from the WytheyilIe Depot,
sees that he has the requisite number Of empty
cars there, and he orders that this freight shall
come the next day: the merchant makes the sale
with rs much confidence of the delivery being
made as he would il he had the wheat in his own
lumber house in the city. The same arrange
ment is made with regard 10 the Salt and Plnsirr.
On the day of the date of the above report there
was at the Glade Spring Depot one car lond of
Salt or Plaster, and sixteen empty cars were there
ready 10 be loaded Consequently if Mr.. Pres
toms agents had demand Tor more Pnster or
Salt than the one load in Depot nj Glade Spring,
on the Doth instant this wan, could be supplied
in day or two by notifying the managers at the
Salt Works and Plaster Banks, (whn have ON the
Salt works Branch locomotive at their com
mand) to supply the deficiency; and il the branch
road was furnished with telegraph wire. rs we
are told it will be. this communication could be
made instantly. instead of requirngn day or two
by the sioc process of mail communication
This admirable arrangement of reporting daily
the supply of Tonnage nj all the Depots. well as
the means of transportation at each place of de
post, will be Of inoalculable advantage when we
have established our railway connections east
and west from Norfolk to Memphis: in this that
the connecting lines of transit can always know
what provision to make 10 carry tho tonnage that
is either in transiiu or in Depot ON the Virginia
and Tennessee Roud. We regard this matter of
police Of such interest 10 the public TINT we
suggest TO our railway officials the policy of pub
fishing daily the valuable information which the
reports furnish.
