This narrative is like those of ell intel
lsent ladies who have skill in writing
ardent, and graphic. 1t should
be treasured up as another cf the dagucr-
reotypcs taken while scenes were fresh
and their impressions strongest. Errors
that we're unavoidable cen be corrected by
comparison with other authors. All the de-
scriptions and details Of the thrilling period
of this narrative should be well preserved
for future use, when the historian will
need them for full and fair account of
the southern struggle.

This book is burlesque Of the style of
the various novcliSts. Some Of the imta-
tions arc very amusing, and contain good
deal Of point and force of ridicule. These
hurlcSque limitations were originally pub
lished in California, and have been col
lcctcd and placed in book form. They
will afford the reader q good deal Of en-
joyment.

The Elections.

The elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio, In
diana. and Iowa show tho waning power and
,,onnlar;ty Of the Republican party. 1t
must he remembered that the contest was
q direct and open struggle betwssyEAhe
Democrats and the Radicals. The Dens
cratic party has many sins upon itsshSS
and q load Of prejudice to fight agafnsts
and4he wsult is not a fair indication or
the extent of public aversion to the intol-
Grant and tyyanpieal party which has
ruled the aation for several years. Had
il been possible to combine tho whole OPP
position under a namesnss entanglcd with
mas, party wranglcs and strife VIC believe
the Republicans would hayss been borne
down by majority equal Aos,shosc huge

1t was remarkable coincidence that
the very Richmond papers which contained
the first returns of these northern folec-
,ions and tho rejection of negro suffrage
contained nominations of negroes to re-
present this city in the State Convention
an aSscmhlago which, in political sense,
is that of highest dignity, since it is
considered the first and primary dclibc-
ra,;ve body of the people WHICH fashions
the organic law Of the State. We find

The Chesapeake and Ohio-More Good
News.

News.
We have the Point Pleasant Journal of
the 81 instant, which contains several in
trrc>,!ng items on the subject Of tic
Chc>apeaiIc and Ohio railroad.
Cabcll county has voted subscription
81 THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS to
the preferred stock Of the company. This
is noblv done OF Cabcll.
Tie Hon. 3. Y. HORTON, Of Mcigs coun-
~. Ohio, subscribed on his individual &C
count SEvESTY-FlvE THOUSAND DOLLARS to
tie branch road from Hamdcn to Gallia.
This, indeed, is not part Of the Chcsa-
pcal.c and Ohio railroad, but it is part
oi the line in Ohio that is to connect this
civ with Cincinnati: and therefore its con-
s;ruction is of infinite Importance to us.
|, should hc stirring and animating cx-
ample to us--thiS very large subscrip-
ton TO this connecting line with the
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad by one
man. There must be great expectations
al the western terminus Of the road we
aye cndcavoring to push through, to in
s;irc 50 much zeal and cXtort such liberal
subscriptions. And yet the western end
is not the ''t0t cnd" Of the road. This
city has the good fortune Of being at that
"lat end" 1t becomes her rather to sur
pass the advocates of the great line at its
western end, inasmuch as her gains
and benefits from it must be greater
than theirs. Let us approach the project
with sense Of its Importance somewhat
Ike that entertained by our western
friends; and making our efforts common
suratc with our convictions, we shall be
astonished how easily that which seems so
gigantic an undertaking will be accom-
plishcd.
Mason county, in which Point Pleasant
(thc northern terminus Of the Chesapeake
ana Ohio railroad is situated, is cNcrting
herself with great carnestncss. Several
meetings have been recently held IN this
county to forward the subscriptions to the
great work. At one of these, resolutions
We're adopted appe aring to editors, to can
didates for the Legislative, and to people
generally, never to mention the railroad IN
connection with politics or party matters
1t was declared to be subject OF such
universal interest and dignity that it should
be kept out Of the muddy arena OF parti-
sanry, and should be supported by all the
people, irrespective of political opinions
The sentiments of the meeting were re-
ccivcd with great appreciation.
At another meeting able speeches wert
made in behalf of the Improvement, anC
several speakers were appointed to can
yass the county in support of subscrip
ton of $500, 900 to the preferred stock o
the company. We have 10 doubt the sub
scription will be made.

The Public Debt and the Currency.
There is 10 subject more discussed
than that of the public debt, which in
wolves thc question of the currency and
the yet more important one Of taxation.
Politicians are debating the right OF the
Government to redeem its bonds in green
backs, one party contcnding that the Go
vcrnmcnt must pay gold, and the other
that il has right to redeem in greenbacks.
Mr.. MCCrLl0ClI, Secretary Of the Urea
sury, takes the gold side of the discussion,
as will be seen by his letter in to-day's
Dispatch.
pom the matter Of the "cXprcSs under
standing as to the payment in gold of the
t!Vc-twcntics, alluded to by Mr.. McCrL-
Loci, many able men diner with him.
Nevertheless, whatever these gentlemen
may have 10 say, there is a view of the,
whole question which rests upon "puhl1c
necessity" and which is not very easily
gotten rid OF. Taxes arc runous and in
t"icraniy oppressive. How arc they to be

Total agricultural SIS, 500 900
Vine ii is supposed, will reach 3,Jno,ooo
gallons.
The writer estimates that the produce
of wheat in California this year is twenty
five bushels to each inhabitant, while that
Of the western Tor Ohio and Mississippi
States is only ten bushels, except Illinois,
which is fourteen bushels. He gives u
glowing account Of the adaptability Of the
climate and soil to the cultivation Of the
grape and Of silk. The mulberry flou
rishcs there as it docs hardly anywhere
else, and the worm is altogether free from
the diseases so destructive to it in other
countries. The Matching Of worms is
effected without artificial heat, and the
chrysalis is stiilcd by the sun without the
necessity of rcsorting to baking in ovens,
which so impars the life and brilliancy Of
tho silk.
California, for gold country, is, indeed,
a wonderful land for its agricultural re-
sources, for grain, fruit, and vegetables.
They arc all exceedingly abundant, and on
the mammoth order.
