Senate bill authorizing the Manassas Gap
Railroad Company TO construct a railroad con-
meeting the Winchester and Potomac railroad
with their road at or near Strasburg. This is
one of the four links in the chain of thai great
Valley railroad for which Baltimore influence
has been industriously eNerted for the past
twenty years. The Winchester and Potomac
railroad is complete; from Winchester TO Stras-
burg. eighteen miles, the work will soon be
done under this enactment. The Manassas
Gap road will continue TO Harrisonburg. New
charters or amendatory clauses will be intro
duced TO continue the chain TO Staunton
twenty five miles, and thence TO Salem, eighty
five miles, there tapping the Virginia ana Ten
nessee road, and completing the grand Valley
yiaduct from Tennessee to Baltimore At
present prices OF labor and materials SAVE the
Winchester Net0s, these one hundred and thirty
i've miles of railway would cost some four
millions OF dollars. Neither the STATE nor the
people are at present in condition 10 contribute
any II nentionable part Of the outlay. IL must
come from foreign sources-Richmond Eaqusrer.

The outrageously radical measures OF Sumner
and Stevens are breaking mp the Republican
party, which could have ruled the country for
the next century had IL been properly man
aged. 1t elected Lincoln over Mcclellan in
1864. because all the soldiers and the friends Of
the soldiers gave IL their votes; but now we
see that all the great generals like Grant Sher-
man, and Thomas, have declared against the
radical policy in their reports, and that the
soldiers are indignant at the efforts made for
immediate, universal, and unconditional negro
suffrage. The result will be the organizatlou
of a new conservative party that will annihi-
late the Rel ublicans as they anninilated the
Democrats. The only military men who in
against the President are Ben Butler and OarI
Schurz- These Are all the soldiers, IL they
may be called soldiers, that the Republicans
now retain In their partly Y Herald.
