WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,

If there is one place more than anoth-
or where the weary deniZen of hot and
dusty cities, the seeker of cool and de-
hghtful temperature, no matter from
what section of the country, can enjoy
himself or herself it is here at these
famous and beautiful springs. The 10.
cation of the White Sulphur resembles
a vast and, rs it were, beautiful, natural
amphitheatre, formed by the towering
Alleghanics, from the peaks OF which
the snow has but recently disappeared,
even in this warm climate. Dellghttul
breezes, laden with thousand fra

tops, cooling and exhilarating in de-
pree that reminds one of Paradise; and
the visitor becomes so Intoxicated with
the scenery and beauties here that he
signs with regret when contemplating
his departure at the close of the season.
Under the management of the Messrs'

If the following story appears little

full of "antidotal poison" had strayed

down to rest He soon fell asleep, but
was shortly after awakened, he raised his
head, when, oh horrors! he was con-
fronted by hideous rattlesnake, which
had coiled itself up in his lap, and, be-
ing disturbed, now raised its naughty
crest, brandished its forked tongue, and
assumed most threatening attitude.
What should be donei The least
movement might cause the dreaded
monster to strike his fatal fangs into the
terror-stricken young man. In the most
awful agony ofmind conceivable, he re-

unable to endure the situation any long

echoed far through the woods, shook off
the horrid monster, and fell senseles to

his victim, who was repeatedly struck
upon various parts Of his person, for
tunately doing no injury, being protect

soon recovered his senses, and left his
antagonist in full possession of the
field, and returned to the city, but, made
no mention of the frightful affair until
several days after, and then only in
with the opportunities of his
friends, who observed his detected and

that something strange had happened to

New YORK, July 12.-Some man has
discovered in the Revenue Law a clause
which forbids cigar dealers from expos
ing cigars for sale except they are in
boxes properly stamped. Even if all the
duties have been paid this must be done.
An organized raid has been made on all
the cigar dealers in this city, and hun
dreds have been arrested and fined not
less than twenty-five dollars each. 1t is
said that ring exists in the Marshaps
office, and that these fines are gobbled
by the ring. The cigar dealers in the
city are greatly excited.
Delmonico has been arrested, and has
been compelled to pay $50 fine.
A meeting of the cigar dealers is soor
to be held, and measures are being
taken to find ont what becomes of the
fines after they are paid. The MarshaPl
ring say that there are $50, 900 in the dis
covery.

lit will indeed have negro
suffrage, but it will not have
white disfranchisement, and
the vote Of the blacks will be
controlled by the respectable
whites whenever and wherever
the latter shall choose to con-
troll it. The Radicals have had
their day in Virginia, and a
long and terrible day it has
been. But it is over. The
chief Radical outrages that
shall be inflicted upon Virgin

direct work of Congress, per-
petrated With the consent, or
at all events tolerated by the
inertness and inactivity, Of a
nation that nothing can appar-

could say as much of our own

commit gross outrages upon
the people. Nor are they slow
to use their power. Would

TEae Norfolk and Petersburg
Railroad.
TO BE CONT NUED

From q long and interes-
ting letter in the New York
Tribune, in relation to the con-
solidated line ofrailroads in this
State, we make the following
extract, as eff interest to very
many of our readers
We came now to the third or
seaboard link of this great Con
solidation Line, and fortunate
Iy have no occasion to stop to
contrast the present with the
past condition Of this road-for
if there is a finished railroad
in this country the Norfolk and
Petersburg Railroad may pro-
perly be so classed. In every
physical relation it may be
characterized as a first class
railroad. 1t is 81 miles long,
70 of which are absolutely
straight. The little curvature
upon it is light and the grades
are easy. All the structures
of this road, buildings, water
stations, and bridges-are of a
permanent character and taste,
full in design. In every respect
it is most admirably appointed
and is fully equipped with the
best description Of cars and
first class engines, all as good
as new. The rail upon this
road is Ga pounds to the yard,
Of the Fish joint pattern and
as good as new. The financial
condition of the Company is
incomparably superior to that
of any railroad in Virginia,
perhaps in the South. Its
funded debt is merely nominal
and it has no floating debt that
cannot be at once discharged
by available assets. The bust
ness of this road has steadily
increased since the war, and
for the six months of the cur
rent fiscal year the business
statements exhibited the fol-
lowing results An increase in
gross revenue Of 20 per cent;
in current expenses only two
tenths of per cent an increase
III net revenue over the CORES
ponding period Of the past year
OF 100 per cent, and clear net
¥ue for this period amply
more than sufficient, double
the amount, in fact, of interest
upon it's funded debt for a
whole year. To this it should
be added that never: yet has
this corporation failed to meet
its semi-annual interest. With
all these striking facts before
us it can scarceley be necessary
to say that no better security
Norfolk day book. [volume] (Norfolk and Portsmouth Va.) 1868-1880, 1869-07-28

can be found anywhere in this
country, either for the safety
Of the investment or the regu-
larity with which interest is
paid.
Here, then, is a review of
the Consolidated Line made
from personal observation and
knowledge Of facts. The
subject arises above mere indi-
vidual of local interest. The
operations Of this great line
vitality concern Virginia and
the West, especially The Vir-
ginia cities Of Lynchburg,
Richmond, Petersburg and
Norfolk, and the seahoard cities
Of the Atlantic. All of these
communities have an interest
in the maintenance OF this line
looking to the superior advan-
tages it presents for conduct
ing, more promptly and econo-
mically than any other now in
operation their important trade
with the boundless West, whose
great basin it penetrates at
Memphis, and by lateral lines
at Nashville and points south
Of Chattanooga. 1t is the main
artery upon which Virginia and
Virginia cities must depend
for the development oftheir re-
sources and trade. 1t is their
main reliance, and, as we be-
lieve, the only available line
through which Virginia and
her sister States of the South
and West can confidently ex-
pect to realize their cherished
aspiration and object-direct
trade--8ut this great line is
not alone important to them
it is also Of material Consequence
to the metropolis of this con-
tinent, the City Of New York,
whose intelligent business men
should note the following fact,
viz: Of the $4,000 GOO of
pounds of Western produce
transported over this line last
year, 1000, 900 found their
destination at New York,
whence 5000, 200 pounds of
merchandise of the AZ, 900, 200
carried over this route were
shipped.
The purpose Of this letter is
to direct public attention to
great trade thoroughfare which
connects the Mississippi valley
with the Virginia seaboard,
which can be made to play a
great part in the commerce of
the whole country, rather than
to pay compliments to mere
individuals connected with it's
management, But it would be
unjust to close without adding
that we are indebted to the
genius, energy, devotion, and
indomitable will Of its presl-
dent, Gen. William Malone,
for the admirable condition,
physical and financial, of this
line, and Of the several corpor-
ations composing it.
