LORD NAPIER. great deal Of stuff and
nonsense has been written and uttered about
Lord and Lady Napier, who visited this
city, last week, at the invitation of the Va
Central Agricultural Society. Some peo-
pie are SO intensely Republican that they
would scarcely justify decent respect to-
wards such distinguished strangers, because
it might degenerate into ''toadyism" Who
is Lord Napier" they ask, .'more than any
other man 2" We will answer that lie is
the accredited representative in this country,
Of the United Kingdom Of Great Britain
and Ireland, and, as ambassador from Queen
Victoria is entitled to reciprocation of the
lofty respect which is ever manifested by the
British public, towards the American Minis
ter at St. James. He is, moreover, a
scholar and gentleman one Of the
naughty, purse-proud creatures which a
morbid Imagination might picture him to
be, but an unassuming, genial, and intelli-
gent man, whom any nation might be proud
to own as citizen. Lady Napier possess
es similar characteristics. and, unostenta-
tious demeanor, would be fit examplar for
many of our aristocratic danes. We are
gratifed to learn that every proper atten-
ton has been paid to these distinguished
strangers. THIS morning, they will proceed
in company with several ladies and gentle
men Of Richmond, to 'sShirley" the beau
tlful James River estate of Hill Carter,
Esq. After spending day or two at his
hospitable mansion, they will visit "Bran-
don,' and then return to this city. We
wish them pleasant excursion.

! The statement in our last issue of the bu-
siress of this road for the last fiscal wear.
will be highly gratifying to its friends eve
rywhere. With an increased business of
$45, S01.35, over that of the preceding
year, its expenses have been diminished
$29, 1879, showing clear increase of
profit for the last year of $75, 437 IA, over
that of the fiscal year 1861 It's receipts
for the year 1878 were 1886, 1872. Is, and
its nett profits 1926, 1852 after paying
all transportation expenses, including the re-
building of shops and repairs and renewal
of tools destroyed, repairs of damage done
to locomotives by fire, tax on passengers
to the State, City and County lcvies, insu-
rance, &C. These clear profits represent the
interest at 6 per cent. on nearly SIS, 200, 900,
which is greatly more than the whole cost of
the Road, and should they never be increas-
ed IN future years, they give assurance to
the stockholders of more than six per cent.
dividends
But that the profits must increase i'm
mensely in future is demonstrate on many
grounds. 1st AS the roadway shall set
tie and become firmer every year, the ordi-
nary repairs will become less and less
End. AS the country opens up and becomes
improved and enriched along the road line,
the business must increase more and more
3rd. The completion Of the railroad now I'M
der construction from Lynchburg to Char
lottesylle, opening up the whole MISSISSIPPI
pl Valley tc Charlottesville, by an almost
direct line from Memphis, will inevitably
throw vast travel on this road, both up to
the Springs region and down to Gordons-
vile and Richmond from Charlottesville. e.

4th. The completion Of the Covington and
Ohio Railroad, will ultimately make it one
Of the most productive and remunerative
.lines in the Union. This last is distant
prospect, but yet must come at last. The
other sources of increased profit are at hand,
even now operating, and destined every day
to operate more powerfully.
We therefore feel authorized to congratu-
late the stockholders Of this great improve
ment that the long day of their trials, is at
last over, and that signal success is now
about to crown their patriotic efforts. We
hope the Company will now feel authorized
to improve the value Of the stock in market
by declaring a handsome dividend at its next
meeting. After the application of the whole
profits Of 1861 to pay the floating debt
we cannot doubt that the condition Of the
Company would justify dividend of 6 pei
cent. and such a dividend would add hun
dreds of thousands at once to the market
value of the stock. sE

Rev Daniel Downey for the alleged MUIR
