lected by acclamation
Messrs. 7 WALKER, Esq, of Rocking
ham, and Fl LErcHER, Esq, of Rock
bridge, were nominated as altcrnates to Dr.
MoFFErr. These gentlemen were called on
to express the line of policy they would pur-
sue, in case they should be called upon to
represent the District at Charleston Mr.
LETcHER stated that he was for the Hon R
NJ I Hunter first, and if he could net be
nominated, he was in favor of any sound
Democrat who could beat the Black Repub-
leans.
Mr. Walker said that every one who knew
anything of his opinions was aware that his
first choice was Henry A. Wise; but as a
majority Of the districts had elected delegates
to the Charleston Convention favorable to
Mr. HUNTER, and it being the usage of
the party to cast a unit vote, if he were to
represent the District in the Charleston Con
vention. he would acquiesce in the action Of
majority Of the delegates. II Nh Hunter
could not receive the nomination, be would
endeavor to have the name Of Henry 4 Wise
presented to the Convention, and use all
honorable means to secure his nomination
In the event of Gov. Wise failing to get the
nomination, he had no hesitancy in saying
he would DO for Stephen A. Douglas, or
any other man that could beat the Black
Republicans,

Central Railroad.

At meeting of the Directors of the Gen.
trail Railroad, on the Sd inst, it was resolv.
ed that after LIST May, the freight charged on
goods consigned to persons actually residing
at Staunton, Waynesboro', Charlottesville,
Gordonsville. or Louisa G. H., may be col
lected at these points In other words, the
regulation requiring the payment of freight
by Richmond merchants is to be rescinded
Heretofore, only such goods as were con-
signed from the North to the care of the
railroad company, could be transported to
the points mentioned, without said prepay
ment-an arrangement which obviously
operated to the disadvantage of the Rich
mond merchant but now all are PLAYED upon
an equality; or the advantage, if any, ac-
crues as itrightfully should, to our own peo-
pie. The Directors have also wisely re-
solved that the company will not continue to
act as forwarders, after 1st July, SO that
goods sent from the North, to pass over the
road, must be consigned to the care of some
forwarding merchant in Richmond.
