Brayely and NoblY Done.

The City Council of this city. with but
one dissenting voice, yesterday evening
voted an appropriation of two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars to the deepening OF
the channel of James river. Congress would
not appropriate anything to this work until
the river was surveyed, and this was post
pouing the work TOO long for lis at the pre-
sent critical condition of the commercial III
terests of Richmond. The Council boldly
met the eXigency and appropriated the
money necessary for the important work.
The act assures US of the spirit and energy
of the corporation. We have, indeed,
Richmond hopeful, alive, and vigorous.
Action like this renders triumph certain.
Give us deepened channel and the straight
road to Lynchburg and we are out Of the
woods. All honor to the Council!

THE JAMES RIVER IMPRovEMENT.-Our
City Council last evening adopted the re-
commentator Of the Committee on the
James River Improvement, and appro-
priated the sum of S250,000 for said i'm
provement. In the municipal history OF
Richmond there is perhaps no action Of its
Council which commends itself so favorably
to the consideration of its people. The
question as to whether Richmond shall re-
ceiyc the great benefits to be conferred by
the completion Of the connecting link be-
tween the seaboard and the Great Wes-ln
fact, whether Richmond shall be the termi-
nus of that important work-depends upon
the depth of water in her harbor. Eighteen
feet is required; 1t can be obtained zine, and I'd
the Council, with commendable zeal, nave
gone to work to secure it. The outlay is
Simply insignificant in comparison to the
incaiculable advantages to be reaped fol
our beautiful city, and the action OF the
and command the appreciation Of all good
citizens, '.a.s ..1-. .s gas. .

The Effects Appearing.

The vigorous manner inwhich the Ghesa.
psake and Ohio Railroad Company have
gone 10 work on Che western end of fheit '!
great road has stimulated the pubic spirls
an along Che Tme Of The work from the ONO
to the White Silphrr.~ The coal companies
are looking about TO make preparaaons los
worxinr their ric, coal mines by the, time
the road is finished. h large part Of the
coal basin on the Kanawha river VIII be
penetrated by the road the present year.
One or two of the larger companies, whose
mines have been hardly opened, have
already approached the Chesapeake ana
Ohio Company upon the subject Of terms OF
transportation of coal to this city. 1t is
this heavy sort Of freight that will force the
COMPANY TO continue their line from Clifton
Forge along the river ora Lynchburs to this
city. The hills. Of Bath are an insuperable
barrier to its transportation at reasonable
rates by the present route through Augusta.
Property Of all kinds along The line mas
advanced in value, but particularly coai
lands. Those which were sold fifteen years
since at from fifsyseents to two dollars and
three dollars per acre now run high UP IN
the tens-sone having, IL is reported, gone
up to fifty dollars per acre. In few years
they viii be up in the hundreds - -,
'a These effects will appear in due time al
along the line from the Ohio to Richmond
The people of this city should be admon-
ished daily, however, that the great dement's
of this national highway cannot be COM
pletely secured by them unless they are
prepared to receive them. James aver
must be tieepened, and every accommooa-
ton to trade that can possibly be gwen
here should be promptly arranged and in
readiness rs near as may be for the PERIOD
when they will be needed.

The Rhine is German at last

The Rhine is German at last
in a military sense. New Brei-
sach, which surrendered ON the
10th inst, waa the last ofthe Rhine
fortresses of any importance
which remained in French posses
sion. The capture of Belfort will
complete the military occupation
of Alsace. In Lorraine, only Thi-
onville and Bitche are held by
the French, and the early fate Of
these it is not di&cult to foresee.
Then the Vosges and the Meuse
will become the western bounda-
ry of Germany, and will form q
stronger one naturally than did
the Rhine.
