LOUISA. The corn crop was lot very
good in Louisa, but the tobacco was a
decided success this year, particularly
In the Green Spring neighborhood. Mr..
WV. F. GoRpoN's tobacco crop is spoken
Of as ''splcndid,' both in quantity and
quality. A very large crop of wheat
has been pitched. Negro-sqiatting
goes on apace ; fifteen new huts have
been built near the Green Springs with
in the last month. The stealing of hogs
and sheep continues to such degree
that some of the largest planters are al.
most wholly without meat. This makes
the people gloomy.

TIE FREDERICKsBURG AND GoRDoNs-

contract was yesterday concluded at
Fredericksburg. between the owners OF
the Fredericksburg and Gordonsville
railroad and u party of Philadelphia
capitalists, prominent among whom is
II. c. Wainwright, Esq, by which che
road will be completed in accordance
with the terms and within the time
specified in the amended charter, passed
by the Legislature during the winter of
1866. This gives them, we believe, I'M
til July 1871. to complete the road.
1t is proposed by them to commence
work as early next spring rs practica-
Bile. Col. c. NJ. Braxton, now Presi-
dent, Is to be Chief Engineer, and Mr..
II. q. Wainwright, OF Philadelphia.
President of the company. The gen
tlemen who embark in this enterprise
are said to pc ssess ample capital to car
ry 1t to successful completion.
About :wenty-three miles of the road
had been graded, when the work on it
was discontinued tor want of funds. Its
entire length is forty miles.
So says the Richmond Wing. The
Dispatch adds;

ORAEaE. premiums recently
awarded our coun:ymen, Messrs. MoY-
Frs It JONES and A. p. Ro urT at the
Valley Fairs, have brought Orange very
prominently before the public as the
cite OF agricultural implement factories.
When Maj. ScoTT completes his estab-
lishment at Madison Run and the wa
t-r-power at Rapidan Station is put
fairly to work, we may expect Orange
to take still higher stand. Our fat
lands and our perfect climate ought to
make us second to 10 county in the
State. All that is needed is co-opera-
ton. Before the war, farmers clubs
were tried without success. Now that
there is pressure we never expected
to feel, cooperation becomes impera-
tive. What prominent citizen will in
augurate the movement?

tered gentleman who knew her, and disclosed
