RAILROAD CONNECTION BETWEEN
THE NORTH-WEST AND THE
SOUTH ATLANTIC COAST.

In order to give cur citizens, and the
people Of the entire region interested in the
railroad system centering at this point an
insight into what is being done and project
ed around and about them, we extract the
following article from the Charleston Courier
Of the 10th, about the Louisville, Knoxville,
Rabun Gap, Blue Ridge and Charleston rail-
road. If vigilance, enterprise, and capital
are not soon brought to bear, the interests of
Middle Tennessee will feel the effects ofthe
superior energy Of rival regions:
The stockholders Of that influential and
wealthy corporation, "the Louisville and
Nashville railroad" at their annual meet
ing ON LIST October, determined upon the ex-
tension Of their Lebanon Branch road from
" Crab Orchard" It's present terminus, tohe
Tennessee line, at point to which the Knox
vile and Kentucky railroad is now being
built.
This fact in itself would be an unimpor-
tant event, but for its ultimate bearing on
the prospects of the Blue Ridge road.
where the great Northwest crosses the Ohio
River, on permanent iron bridge, which

unbroken line of frst-class railroads. 1t |
will not be for the purpose Of making Knox |
vile its depot, far from it. The stream Of |
travel, the gigantic tonnage from the vallies |
of the Ohio and Mississippi, and from the
shores Of the great lakes, are seeking an outlet
on The South Aaantie coast and the connecting /
link Is the Blue Ridge Railroad.
We may crowd it out'of sight under the
more urgent needs of the present time, some
may say sit win never be-" but the seeds
planted in the "Rabun Gap" must grow and
will bring us ample returns.
Three millions Of money in tunnels, in
and in actual road, is too important
a fact to be overlooked, when the commerce
of the great West shall have reached Knox
vile. Il will not be overlooked if our peo-
pie viii but do their duty. Admit that they
have no money for any railroad freight
good will does not cost anything. Let us
then never forget the importance of keeping
this project always in mind, and if we can
not work ourselves, this year or next year,
The year after may bring us helping hand.

PROBABLE RESIGNATION OF STAN
Ton AND APPOINTMENT OF SHEER
MAN As SECRETARY OF WAR.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer telegraphed on Wednes-
day as follows:
Lieutenant General SHERMAN has written
a letter to the President emphatioally and
unequivocally indorsing the policy of the
Administration, and deprecating the course
of the RSdicals in the treatment of the
Southern people. / will send you a copy of
this important letter in few days.
My paragraph Of last night relative to
the Withdrawal Of Mr.. STANTON from the
Cabinet has produced a sensation, and caused
numerous kilograms to be sent here to in
ouire about the authenticity Of the state
ment. What / stated is correct, and, as be-
fore mentioned, upon high authority.
Whether Gen. SHERMAN can be spared
from his duties in his Department or not is
yet an open question. He is known to be
in favor Of the Presidents policy, and Mr..
JOHNSON desires Gen. SHERMAN to act as
Secretary Of War until it shall be deter
mined who shall permanently succeed
Mr.. STANTON in the Cabinet

touch which ran through the country few
days ago when il was belived that President
JoHSsoN had shown his hand ready 20

Of resisting US. We are strong, and we
