Among the losers is the chief editor Of
The Post General Carl Schurz. He had
two large boxes in the depot in the Mich
igan Southern railroad, containing among
other things, a very valuable portion Of
his library, a fine lot of geographi.
cal and military maps, a collection OF
photograph reproductions of the best
paintings in the Gallery of Madrid, sew
eral volumes Of manuscript, a number Of
letters from Mr.. Lincoln and other prom
inent persons, and all his correspondence
with his family during the last twelve
years, containing IN almost complete diary
of the political and military events with
which he has been connected. The loss is
. very sever N as far as the pecuniary
value Of the contents Of the boxes IS con-
cerned, but, as many of the articles des-
troyed cannot by any possibility be re-
placed, it is irreparable.

Much comment was made on the sp-

of his alleged relation to the rebel General
Wade Hampton. The alleged relationship
is denied The relatives of the appointed

What will He do with Them {

We are gratifed to see, by our Richmond
exchanges, that General SoHoFIELD has con-
tinued to deepen the first agreeable impress
sion made upon them; and this statement of
theirs is corroborated by private advices from
that city In view of the resolute intention
which he has manifested to administer affairs
with Justice and moderation, we trust lie will
not be long in turning his attention 10 the
condition Of the Peninsula. Considerations
both of policy and humanity, unite IN pro-
claiming that unhappy and blasted region to
be one peculiarly worthy his immediate notice.
With its general condition, we presume he
i. already acquainted We take it for granted,
that he knows it has been desoated by fire
and sword; that its fertile fields have been
converted into broad commons; that its orisi-
hal land owners, the first to suffer in the
country ARE still oppressed beyond description
by the preseoce of a vast supernumerary
black population, who neither toll nor spin;
and that the pressure Of population on sub
sistence is already severe. We take 1t for
granted that he is familiar with these facts;
but there are some points Of detail Of which
he may be, and probably is, ignorant These.
like the high lights in picture, give the
present condition Of the Peninsula new
meaning and expression For example. we
learn, on the very Lest authority, that negroes
labor now in many cases for their rations
alone, or with TIE following prices in add
tion in some cases, rations and ten cents;
The day book. [volume] (Norfolk, Va.) 1857-1867, 1866-09-12

others, rations and twenty-five cents; while
many of the most meritorious Of them are at
loss to-day to tell where the bread of to-
morrow will be found The tendency of af-
fairs, from Williamsburg down to Hampton,
can lead but to one result, that Of starvation.
Both, white and black people must suffer,
unless some remedy is applied, and the suffer-
ing will be extreme. The short crops, the
want Of money, tie lack Of work. and the in
dolencc Of the surplus negro population, can
lead but to that one thing; while lavless-
ness and robbery, born of hunger, will make
that fair, but unhappy region, absolutely in
tolerable There is but one remedy for the
evil. That remedy is simple. The egg can
be set on end in moment. The way in
which to relieve both classes Of the commu-
nifty, is for the surplus population to be pro-
vided with new homes. If they remain they
starve. Nor is this all; they involve the local
negro population in the same fate, while they
hold out a standing invitation to cholera, to
thin out their ranks by it's deadly attack. In
view Of all these reasons, the soundness Of
which General ScHoFIELD will not fail to APP
preciate we trust that the necessary steps
will be taken to avert the calamity of starva-
ton, which is now certainly impending ovel
the freedmen of the Peninsula.
By this means, the outside black popnia.
ton may be able to take care of themselves
while new career, now absolutely barred
will be opened to the old inhabitants of thai
blasted district, which once was one of the
fairest porto of the State

What 1T is Worth.

The Woolly Heads in their late tumutuous
meeting called for the publication of the tes-
timony of the grand shoulder-strap grand
jury which recently assembled in New
Orleans, What that testimony is likely to
he worth we have already stated; but we
have an opin OH from one of the witnesses
which is far more valuable 1t is published
in leading paper of the Hub of the Uni
verse" and will we trust have good effect
A Boston man." who is vouched for by
the Commercial, writes to his father in that
city, long letter from New Orleans, under
date Of August the oath, in which he reviews
the proceedings of the Military Commission
before which he was examined, which affected
to take testimony in regard to the late riot.
He says
My testimony, to be sure, amounted to
very little; but enough, with the manner in
which it was elected, to show the ayimus Of
the inquisition, and to satisfy me that the
result of its labors will not be worthy of
credit.
The object Of the Commission is plain, and
their report will be found nothing more nor
less than Campaign document" made to

The Cumberland Gap Railroad.

We have upon several occasions called the
attention Of our people to the Importance of
this work in the great line of transporta-
ton between this and the Western centres
of trade,
Its importance as link in the extended
chain has been demonstrated in the letter of
Mr.. Deane which We published some months
ago, and also in the able report of the late
President of the Company Col. HUaHEs,
which we spreas almost in its entirety before
our readers. The Hon. VIM. Fl. STEVENSON
it will be remembered was in this city few
weeks ago, and left with General MALONE.
His mission was in relation to the construc-
ton Of this road, the importance of which to
Virginia, Kentucky and Ohio, is admitted by
all We learn that {, meeting is to be held in
Asheville, n c., during this month, and that
Charleston and Cincinnati will be represen-
ted there. Twenty two miles of the Cincin-
natl Cumberland Gap and Charleston Road
will be finished in the direction Of North
Carolina by the fall
The city of Norfolk is deeply interested in
the construction of the Cumberia land Gap Rail-
road, and if she were in condition to do SO,
she should make an investment in the stock
of the Company She should at least give
the work all the encouragement and co-ope-
ration in her power A called meeting OF
the Company is to be held in Bristol on the
28th instant, for the purpose of filing the
vacancy created by the resignation of Gen. E.
K1RBY SMITH, who was recently elected to
that position
The State Line Gazette thinks that il
RoBT w. HUGHFs, ESQ. is elected President
it feels sure that the road will he recon-
menced soon and pushed forward to an early
completion
If such is to be the result Of the election Of
Col HUaHEs, then we shall hail his elevation
to the responsible position as a consumma'
ton to be desired by all the friends of this
important work-important if not essential
to the completion of the continuous line from
the Seaboard to the Great West Give Vir-
ginia roads the carrying of the vast wealth Of

rates and speedy transit under consolidated
