The prospect of the early completion Of

The prospect of the early completion of
the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad is attracting
considerable attention in the north and in
New York city especially. The Herald
thus speaks of this road destined to be one
of the greatest in the country:
''The Chesapeake and Ohio line occupies
the only remaining eligible pass across the
Allegheny mountains, and is the shortest
route from Chicago, St. Louis, and Cincin-
natl, to the Atlantic seaboard. Our CORE
spoDdent at the White Sulphur Springs, in
announcing the conclusion of the contract
to complete this line, says that owing to its
lighter gradients and longer curvatures it
has greater advantages for speed and econ
omy of traffic than any line south of the
New York Central, and it has advantages
over that line for the reason that the more
moderate climate of the Virginia lines rem
ders the working expenses and mainte-
its northern rivals.
NEW York can afford to rejoice in the
general increase of the national wealth, as
well as in the development Of the prosperity
of Virginia, that must ensue from the sue
cess Of this new and important railway en-
terprise
"We may hope that in due time she may
retrieve her losses and acquire more than
her ancient wealth. Norfolk, with its safe,
accessible, and unrivalled harbor, may vet
become another New York /" '' 81.

~ sons are forbidden to hunt, or COMM t
trespass of any kind on the grounds of the Insti-
tuition of D. D. & B. Those failing to observe
this notice will be dealt with according to law.
10 we'll disposed persons mere suggestion as
regards hunting would seem to be sufficient, since
it is well known that the occupants of those
grounds are for the most part persons who can
not hear, and cannot see, whose freedom on the
grounds is of course largely cpftailed by those
acting thoughtlessly in this matter
It is, moreover, respectfully asked that the
drivers of fast horses will rein them up little on
the road around the buildings to give the deaf
and the blind time to step out of the way.

Ex-Gov. Thos. H. Seymour, near rela
tive Of the distinguished Democratic nomi-
nee, died at his residence in Hartford Con-
necticutt, on Thursday the 3rd. inst. He
was man of extraordinary ability, infexi-
bic integrity, indomitable courage and a
Statesman Of no ordinary merit. He had
filed many important public positions. Such
men can be but lily spared in the present

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
FOR PRESIDENT,
HON. HORATIO SEYMOUR,
OF NEW YORK.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT
Gen. FRANCIS P, BLAIR,
OF MISSOURI.

There has been great anxiety everywhere
to learn the result of the conference between
Gen. Rosecrans and Gen. Robt. E. Lee
The correspondence which transpired has
been made public. The letter Of Gen. Rose
Grams is frank and evinces patriotic desire
to see the whole country at peace once more
and prosperous. It is lengthy, however,
which prevents our giving it entire. AS the
reply Of Gen. Lee, and other di distinguished
southerners, is that, alone, from which good
is expected to result, we publish it elsewhere.
Gen. Lees course and advice have been
ppr eciased and needed by southerners gen.
orally and have gone a great way to soften
the asperities incident to defeat, in cause
believed just, accompanied. as it was, by
humiliating conditions calculated to irritate a
high toned and brave people, and his letter,
which is plain, candid, calm, and statesman
like, will be heartily endorsed by all.
That it will accomplish much good we do
not expect The North and West are too
much given to an earnest belief in the state
ments Of journals, which have been accus-
toned for the past seven years, and especially
since the surrender, to deal in sensational sto-
riss, detrimental to the South directly, and
indirectly to the whole country, to implicit
ly believe the expression Of opinion by Gen.
Lee to be that Of southern people generally.
We, therefore. caution all not to expect too
much from Gen. Lees reply. Southern
men have but little influence North now,
however honest and however respected at
home.
The pocket-nerve is the great lever there.
When that is touched it produces its effect.
The restlessness under Congressional absorp-
ton Of power and the great desire for change
everywhere exhibited are due alone to this.
The enormities of taxation, in time of
peace, to keep up an abnormal condition OF
affairs will tell, in fact are telling. The
large monthly increase Of the public debt is
greater argument against Radical misrule
and retention Of power, than any declaration
of sentiment even if subscribed 10 by the en-
tire South
But as an honest expression Of opinion
and declaratory of the sentiments of tho
south generally we endorse the letter Of Gen.
Lee and others.
We hope it may result in good, but ex-
pect it to accomplish but little and that only
among the few who can arise above partisan
prejudices and allow reason to take the place
Of passion.

1866, in regard to newspapers, he declared
that the persistent publication of articles
calculated to keep up a hostility Of feeling
between the people Of different sections Of
the country cannot be tolerated. If that
order were enforced to-day, how many news

would be left to advocate the General who
promulgated it?

to 8 pounds, and these again being put in
