NE virginia and Kentucky RallrOa

Tact. a
The Virginia and Kentucky Railroad
has, until recently, absorbed the undi.
vidod attention of our people The SUBJ
ject of the Norfolk and G.. W Railroad
has, however, for short period diver.
ted our energies from that great work.
There may be some danger to Us in lay.
ing bold of the idea that in order to in
sure the former we must expend our
means and our skill in securing first the
latter, To expcud onr whole power on
either one while in their incipient stage
would probably be unwise; but it be-
comes US to consider which Of the two is
the more likely to secure the terminus
of the other for Bristol. We think we
hazard nothing when we say that with
US the strategic point in the contest is
the early completion Of the Kentucky
Road Here are our reasoosY The
trade Of the Ohio valley is clamorous for
q short route through Virginia to the
Atlantic. 1t has practically overcome
the difficulty from louisville to Cum.
berland Gap, The "air line" through
Va. to Norfolk necessarily must form
the channel which that trade will seek
TO tap. Now while there may more
direct line drawn on the map than the
one from Cumberland Gap via Bristol,
we believe there il none which com bines
80 many advantages, aud certainly none
can approximate it for moderate cost =
The present generation must pursue q
plan which greatly reduces the cost OF
construction at only trlAing expense
in distance. 1t is proposed to build q
road upon this parallel to Norfolk which
to certain extent, at least, is rendered
non-essential by the one already in ex
istepcc at the expense of some 60 miles
in distance, aud while we can see thai
when the Va. & KY, link is supplied
both lines will be necessary to accom-
modate the through trade and travel, i
teaches Us the more imperative duty o
first securing that link, because it wll
then demand the other If, however
we shall fret aid exclusively the Nor
folk line it will then seek its specifies
opening to the Ohio, and then we viii
become, at most, only competitors TO
the termini. Might we not then los,
both ? Unless then we can see, certain
~, beyond pcradventure that the N. 4
G. w. Road must have its terminu
here, we must seek now the Kentuc,
Road, and then this Norfolk line an,
many other things will be added unit
us. But we by no means wish it under
stood that we should for momen
abandon the Norfolk Road. On the con
trary we should see that Col Flourno
is aided sufficiently at once in maxim
the survey from this point eastwar
without an hours delay. Bat we mui
make the Va. & Ky. road an assure
fact as our first step, for in order t
make sure of the Norfolk road all meas
ures are but subsidiary to these. 9th
err steps may tend to this result; thi
one compels it.

4 SUGGESTION ABOUT CATERPILLAR$.
The discovery of sne fnll grown cater
pillar by one of or most vigilant plant
ers has been brought to our attention
aud in such way, that we are disposed
to give the information full credit. The
worm was fully identified as the genuine
cotton caterpillar. and was nearly ready
to go into its web: We make this an
nouncement, not for the purpose of af-
fecting the cotton market, or producing
a panic among planters. but to put plant
ers on their guard, and to suggest what
seems to us of great Importance, that
the planters all over the country cause a
strict search of their cotton to be made.
with the view of DESTROY ing every worm
or chrysalis which may be found. One
worm or chrysalis killed now will cut off
thousands Of caterpillars in August and
September. For every ten destroyed
now, probably five bales of cotton will
be saved to tho planter when he comes
to gather his crop in the fall. The enor-
nous increase of the cotton worm in
passing through only three "crops, :"
while it il most unwelcome fact, is nev-
ertheless the key to the planters iudem-
nifty against it's ravages. Only destroy
the pioneers, or the first .'crop,1 aud
there is an end to all apprehensioDs of
danger. Search the young cotton, weeds
and bushes thoroughly for worms and
chrysalis now, on every plantation. and
the result will be failure in the cater
pillar crop" as certain as fate. Out

CONFEDERATE HERoIsN. - Whatev yer
else written about the late war may be
true or false, the following. from the per,
Of Gen. J. A. Early, of Virginia, will
never be disputed: .5 .'..
II believe that the world has never
produced body of men superior in cour-
age, patriotism and endurance. to the
private soldiers of the Confederate ar
miles, have repeatedly seen those SOL
diers submit, with chaerfalness, to priva-
lions and hardships which would appear
TO be almost incredible; and the wild
cheers of our brave mea. (which were 90
different from the studied hnrrahs Of the
Yankees,} opposing hosts of Federal
troops, staggering. reeiing and flying.
have often thrilled every fibre in my
heart. I have seen. with my own eyes,
ragged, barefooted and hungry Confed-
crate soldiers perform deeds which, if
performed in days of ypre by mailed
warriors in glittering arnlor. would have
inspired the harp Of the minstrel and
the pen of the poet. I

The result of the Virginia election
goes to sustain what we have said here
tofore as to the causes at work towards
Transformation of parties. Both can
didates for the governorship, Walker
and Wells, we're Northern men and men,
bers of the Republican party. But they
differed broadly with respect to the CON
stitution that was to be submitted to vo-
ters for ratification. Wells stood upon
the clauses requiring the test oath and
rebel disfranchisement," while Walker
went for giving equal rights to all in
point of qualifications for voting and for
holding Office. The one desired to have
all the disabling conditions imposed by
the conquering power upon the con-
quered vindictively perpetrated the
other opposed the incorporation into the
constitution of provisions that would
embody the spirit Of conquest on the part
of one class, and keep alive bitter sense
of wrong and deep feeling of disaffec-
ton on the part of another class.
The overwhelming defeat Of Wells
plainly signifies that, in Virginia at
least, the Republican party cannot hope
to maintain itself simply by nourishing
the passions and the policies which at
tended the progress of the late war. And
yet it is difficult to perceive on what
other basis it is possible for all the ele-
ments aud ambitions of the party, North
and South, to unite in cordial and effec-
tive harmony. Nominally, the Virginia
Governor elect is a Republican; but in
the canvass he represented the Conser-
vative interests of the State and was
supported by the influence Of nearly the
whole of its white population, against
an opponent who relied for success on
gaining, by extreme Radical professions,
the almost entire negro vote. Mr.. Bout
we'll is said to have remarked in Cabinet,
when asked whether he was for throw
ing the patronage of the government in
favor eff Wells or of Walker, that there
could be but one Republican party in
Virginia, and that Wells, as tho most
radical Republican must necessarily rep
resent it. According to this theory, Mr.
Boutwelfs party has suffered. in the first
State election in the South under Grants
administration, a disastrous defeat
The result OF this election is suggest
i've Of some gratifying reflections with
regard to the tendencies of the negro
vote. 1t would seem that about as many
negroes voted for Walker as for Wells.
The attempt to array them i'll 4 solid
body of voters against the mass of the
white population utterly failed. Let us
trust that the fact affords good ground
for anticipating the failure of any like
attempts by incendiary 1e,nagogues
anywhere else in the South.-N. y. Conn.,
