If5eTeraauy people under the sun had
redsou 70 rejoice over their deliyerance
from tyrants, from traitors and misrule, we,
the people of West Virginia have greater
reason than they for rejoicing over our de.
ltTerance from the old pntrid carcass to
which We have been tied, the poor old mis-
srable seeded State of Virginia.
Groups of new State men might have.
been seen here on yesterday evening rush
ing tothe telegraph Office to inquire and
ire=inquire If il could be true that we were
leut loose from the aforesaid pntrid and
rancid carcass. They were soon assured
of the fact. Then followed cheer after
cheer, waving of hands. friend congratula-i
ting friend, amidst the firing of cannon
and universal ou;bursts of joy. To con-
yey even feipt idea on paper of this glo-j
rious, rejoicing wOuld,he impossible. One
thing Imustinot omit to note, and that Is,
that amidst all the rejoicing of the occa-
sion some one suggested. that we should
use Wheeling Ptssses for wadding. This
met with the general approval of the
crowd Some of tho number were imme-s
diately detailed to hunt up that old anti.
division orgAn, the Wheeling Press. They
soon appeared with dead loads of that lu
fninary, and theYiWere immedfately applied

Now, Mr.. Editor, if ii should become ner
cessary for me to prove, from files of the
Wheeling Press, !thatit did absolutely op-
pose our New State, up 70 this date-for BY
the by, see it hurrahs for it to-day, after
We had shot our old files away-you' or
some, other friend of the New State, will
have to come to my rescue and furnish the
evidence, from the very fact have stated,
viz; all trace Of the past history of that lu-
mfnary has been shot away We have
therefore, no files TO refer TO. You will
seeat Oncethatit would place any citizen
of Moundsville in, a very bad position
You must then, really try and save some
files OF the luminary in Wheeling, or the
first thing We know, the editors of that lu.
minRry will say that they were always for
q New State, and we citizens Of Mounds
vile, could not disprove it, from the fact
that We shot all the files we had away Do
save a file of it in Wheeling. We are
afraid here that some one in Wheeling
might suggest the wadding Of y6ur big
gun with it and then all trace of the past
course of that paper would be gone. EiSee
to it and preserve itif for no other pur-
pose than to save the citizens of Mounds+

7a .RRsToRATION OF THE RAILROAD.


The importance Of the great trans
Allegheny iron road to Baltimore aud
Washington directly, and indirectly To.
New York and Philadelpbia, Is seen and
felt more at this junction than ever be-
fore. The destruction of the line Of way
from Harper's Ferry for some twenty odd
milesWestward is complete aud thorough,
and yet the company is prepared, with
all the requisite materials, rails, cross
ties and bridges, to rebuild it within
twenty days. They are only waiting for
the government to drive the enemy effeC-
tuaily out Of the northern end of the val
ley, and to occupy Winchester in sufficient
force, which viii speedily be done.
StonewalI jackson thought he had put It
out of the power Of the company to open
their communications again for months
to come but he had not estimated their
resources Alright The closing of this
avenue to the West has sent up coal in
this market to eight dollars ton, beef TO
fifteen. cents q pound, and other, articles
in the. same proportion. Its opening
again will bring back prices to their old
standard. the effect Of which will be felt
in New York and Philadelphia, nay, in
Boston itself To the government It is
absolutely necessary in the way Of afEor-
ding an adequate and pFOmyt supply Of
forage, coal, beet, &c. learn it Is design
ed BY the company not to re-establish
their depot at Martinsburg until after the
war is over, so that Cumberland will be
the first depot 10 the west after leaving
Baltimore. None of the tunnels ON the
road have been injured. The p6blis
confidence in the ability of the eompany
to recover speedily from the present re-
verse to its line is undated, as is seen
by the prices of their stock and bonds,
which keep up to the standard they were
at when the road was working through
and through The bonds of 1885 are
above par, and the stock is near . tu
eighty. This condolences IL maintained
through the siennl ability of. the manages

States Railroad King, John Garrett, and

sample of its iachieVements, which is8one
of the hitherto unpublished incidents Of
General Pope's-V Virginia campaign. When
General Halleck found that Washington
wns5endangered by the rapid approach Of
the urebel army from Richmond, threat
ening to annihilate General Pope Iusufi-
eient forces, which were thus exposed by
the failure Of the army of the Potomac to
reinforce them, he ordered the transpOrta.
ton of General Cox's West Virginia or
Kanawha army, consisting of eight thou
sand troops, from Parkersburg to Manas-
sas by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
President Garrett and Master Of Transpor-
tation Prescott Smith, undertook to execute
the order and performed the task with
the most eminent success. The whole of
General COX'S army was embarked on the
trains at ParkeFsbuTg, which set of for
theirdestinatiOn Within siShfof each other
and made the whole distance to Manassas.
four hundred and-forty miles, in forty
four consecutive hours, without detention
or Inishap Of any kind, overcoming all
the steep grades and curves on that noun
tain road with perfect ease. 1t there is
any railroad feat ikeIthat in the history
of railroad transportation in this country
it has not yet been recorded. II was this
prompt transportation of General Cox's
army of eight thousand men to the scene
of conflict in the memorable days of the
latter part of August, 1862, that enabled
the gallant Pope to bdffle the enemy and
save Washington, while the army of the
Potomac was inexcusably kept back from
flying to the relief of thearmy of Virginia,
and, for this timely assistance to the
in the dark hours of its mis-
fortunes the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
will be gratefully remembered by q
grateful country. .-s51--voIi iu lssa
