Editors Richmond Dispatch:
The particulars of the great calamity
which lately befell the town of Fincastle,
resulting in the destruction Of more than
one-haIf of our beautiful mountain vii.
iage, has been. pretty generally dis
seminated through the press of Virginia,
and indeed through that OF other States.
Ourneighboring counties have come nobly
to our relief in furnishing supplies of food
and clothing to those who lost all by fire,
and the present necessaries of life, such as
flour, bacon, groceries, and clothing, have
been abundantly supplied. We have been
also the recipients Of considerable amounts
Of money both from our own and our neigh
boring countrymen, and also some money
from q distance; but there Is nothing like
O sufficient amount, even to assist those who
are entirely destitute Of shelter other than
that afforded them temporarily.
There has been appointed standing
committee of finance to receive and dis
burse funds-frst, to aid mechanics to pur-
chase the necessary tools with which TO
carry on their trade and make living for
themselves (many having lost all the. tools
they hadD; second, to aid those who have
been deprived Of their homes to rebuild
and to place themselves upon firm footing
to go on with their usual avoeations.

Railroad Connections.

The railroad connections through Rich
mond should all be completed at once
They are demanded by trade and the pub
lie convenience. There should here be NJ
facility wanting that it is possible to give Il
trade. The great competition in transpor
tatiou of all sorts requires the utmost dis
patch, and no line which cannot give expe
lition to all freights entrusted to it can sue
cessfllly compete with the active lines now
running in all directions. 1t is important
to Richmond that the lines running through
her corporate limits should not carry the
heavy weight of delays at this point. A large
business in transports bn ON those lines will
strengthen them and enable them to
conduct their operations with increased
yigor and regularity. This strengthening
and improving the conduits Of trade pass
ing through city is immensely benehclai
t, it-improves its business, and increase
the activity of its copmerce. Convenience,
cheapness, expedition, and regularity OF
shipment, is the very life OF trade, and no
city can flourish without it. That city
which obstructs commerce by allowing
gaps in its railroad connections is ever an
object of criticism and denunciation. The
passenger who is driven to the. omnibus
after a long journey, to be jolted over tie
stones mile or more to another depot, is
ever disposed to shake the dust from his
feet upon departing from the city limits,
and TO leave, instead of his blessing, his
curse upon it.
The liberal and enlightened spirit of COM
merce of these days fayors these conncc-
tions. They are indispensable to successful
competition in the carrying trade. We
were long, long years without a single line
through the city. At last the FTedericks-
burg and Petersburg roads were connected.
Since then the Danville and Fredericksburg
roads have been connected. 1t remains
now to unite the York River road with the
Chesapeake and Ohio and the Danville roads
These connections are of very great import
ance, and should not be delayed. We hope
the companies will proceed at once to make
them. There is pressing necessity iol
them at this time. 1t is altogether expe
dient that to this extent we should dispense
with the " shaved-tail mule"

There seems to be smaller number Of
voters registered in Richmond this year than
were registered last year. This apparent
falling off is due to the fact that hundreds
of newcomers and new voters were added
in 1869 to the old lists, whilst other hun
dreds who had registered in 1867 and 1868,
and had afterwards removed from the city,
were left upon the lists. We had upon our
lists last year many Of the voters, white and
