This is all right, if he had con-

Our own opinion is, he ought to have

long ago-by force, if necessary. He
has told Congress, on several occa-
sions, the Acts they passed were un-

RAILROAD CoNNEcr1oNs.-I,he Rich.

RAILROAD Connections Rich.
mond Times says:
There are Indications that the great
agricultural producers of the West
are already alive to the benefits which
will rebound to them, both in time
and money, from the completion of
the Newport News Railroad and its
connections, leading to the Missis-
sippi and its tributary streams. And
not only Y are the shippers of the West
beginning to appreciate the superior
advantages of such a route to the sea,
but European capitalists, who ara
proverbially keen and far-sighted, are
looking to the windward of their
interests. The adventof the Ephesus
to our waters was nothing more than
an attempt, on the part of trans-At-
lantic capital, to grasp the coming
trade by this fore-stalling effort.
When it Is reflected that upon the
completion of that line from Cincin
natl to the sea; of which the Newport
News Road is link, we shall then
have a communication from the Ohio
to the Atlantic over this route 100
miles shorter than by any other, il
cannot be doubted what course West
ern trade and travel will take. Under
the compulsion of Interest, Western
producers will. of course, select IL
route which will enhance the value of
their products by diminishing the
cost of transportation.

NEGROES METAMoRPHosED INTO IN

the negroes West of Arkansas, wi~
wei formerly held as slaves by the
Choctaws and Chickasaws, have been
metamorphosed into Indians by the

incorporated into the respective

the rights, privileges and immunities
