Decrease Ia Emigration.

The year in which there was the greatest
number ofarrivals from Europe in New York,
was 1854, when 3la2a aliens were registered
The next greatest number was i'll lo52. But in
le59 only 1916 2;S3 came, and this falling OFF is
said to have been relatively the same in every
portion Of the country where emigrahts We're
landed In I:5e and leJ9 combined, TIE arri-
walls amounted to only 1921. The cause il
attributed TO an unusual degree of prosperity
in EurOne.

We trust that every Southern member of
Congress at least, and every citizen Of the
South, will oppose every proposition and
every project for the acquisition of Cuba
against the wishes Of its lawful proprietors.-
Surely, after the scenes which have lately
trans pired in Virginia, NO Southern man can
countenaEcs a hilibustering invasion of 4
friendly island, nor condemn the sevrrest
measures which the Spanish authorities have
ever taken, or may hereafter take, for their
projection. What Virginian is there, who, if
q Cuban, would hesitate to deal with fillibus-
tiers just AS Virginia has dealt with old Brown !!
The idle stories Of the oppression Of the Gu
bans are just as groundless as the abolition
stories Of Southern oppression, those wretch
I'd fables which Inspired BROWN and his COM
panions with their quixo,ic purpose, and
which are even now inflaming multi,udes at
the North with false sympathy for the blacks
and vengeance against their masters. Even if
the Cubans are oppressed. are wecalled upon
to break their chains Must we become, like
tho abolitionists. the self.constituted cham.
piOns OF oppressed humanity! We demand
Justice from the North let us exhibit it to the
South. We cay to the North, "hands off," let
US keep our own hands off Cuba and all our
weak neghbors. let us show that 1t does not
require "misht" to make US respect "right )"
Let US do to others as we would that others
should do unto us. We are we'll aware that it
IL the North which must be principally bene-
ited by the acquisition Of Cuba but dosing
ing men in that section have always sought,
aud are still seeking to make the South i cats
paw for the purpose of taking that tempting
chestnut out of the fire. All that the Sou til
has ever gained by fillibus.erinS ard the lille
gal prosecution of the African slave trade, j.
the reputation throughout the world Of an ag.
&ressivs, piratical race, whilst Northern capi-
tai and Northern commerce have been the
main spring, and have reaped the principal
advantages, Of both kinds Of enterprise.

We surely need say nothing, at this time of
dag, TO sindicate the superiority VI the Canal
TO all other means Of Transporting heavy
freight Suffice it to say that, even in its pres
snt unfinished condition, having a length Of
only 3i2 miles, it transports ., 5s} more tons
than the Danville, Central, Petersburg aud
Fredericksburg Railroads, which have an ag
eregats length Of 4gs miles. 1t exceeds by
3;36t tons tho Virginia and Tennessee, Orange
and Alexandria. Manassas Gap, Winchester
and Potomac, Norfolk and Petersburg, Sea-
boaid and Roanoke, having an aggregate
length Of 582 miles. The freight business of
all the railroads in Virginia, ten in number,
amounted. for one year, to 1868 tons, for
which they received q, tG3, 5W.6i, while the
freight business Of the Canal amour ted TO 2O6,-
295 tons, for which il received $i:2, -i?.G2.
A striking Illustration Of tho peculiar ca
pscity of canals for transporting heavy freigh
Is found in the case Of the Chesapeake AMI
Ohio Canal, which, though an almost hopeless
sufferer from any number OF casualties, trans
ported during is.5s, the amount Of 25i,G>i tons
Of coal from Cumberland to Alexandria, Isl
milee, even in competition with the low rates
Of the Baltimore aud Ohio Railroad, which
was only able to take n, rs tons from the same
point.

Dan River Coalfield Railroad.

The bill authorizing u connection between
the Richmond and Danville Railroad and the
Dan River Coalfield Railroad, (under the pat
ronaxe Of Mr.. DICKINSON, Of Prince Edward,
in the House OF Delegates passed that body
on Friday night by very decided vote, re-
ceiving rs votes, being IL votes more than the
Constitutional vote necessary for its passage.
Mr.. D., as one OF the delega es on behalf of
Richmond, visited that fertile region to he
penetrated by the road. last summer, in COM
pany with other delegates from this city, APP
pointed by the Bonrd IF Tra!e, to aid in inau-
gurating necessary measu for the construc-
ton of this road, and was, therefore, abe to
speak from personal knowledge, and impress
others with something Of his own apprecia-
ton Of the value of this important connec-
ton.
This bill, which does not appropriate 4 dol
lar from the public treasury, and is now Il
law, secures the commerce Of the rich valleys Of
the Dan and Yadkin, to enrich Virginia roads
and Virginia towns.
Richmond, particularly, will have reason to
be thankful for An improvement SO important
and which is made SO cheaply to her. ems uring
SO much to her future increased prosperity.
