sponsibility on this subjeet,and have
come to the conclusion that it is to
be regarded precisely as Mary Lamb
and Charles Lamb regarded the in
cursion of the mania which DESTROY
ed the peace of their life. A man
who undertakes to comprehend and
cure himself has to fight his wav
back alone. Nobody understands,
nobody sympathizes with him, no
body helps him-not because the
world is unfeeling, but because it is
Ignorant Of the laws which govern
this species of insanity.
1t took me, therefore. a great
while to form my system ofselfcure
l still hope for this 1, the same and
sound, hope to provide for the in
sane and unsound intervals of nv
life. And my theory is, briefly. a
total and eternal REIMBURSEMENT of
the poisonous influence, so that ma
ture may have power to organize new
and healthy brain matter, and to re-
move that which is diseased. Ma
ture will do this, in the end, for sne
is evermerciful; there is always "for-
giyeness with her, that she NAV be
feared" Since you have known me,
you have seen that l live the life of
an anchOrite-that my hours are reg
ular,, that 1 avoid exciting society,
that l labor with uniformity, and
that l never touch any stimulating
drink. 1t is a peculiarity of cases
like mine that for lengths of time
the morbid disease leaves us, and
we feel the utmost aversion to any
thing Of the kind. But there is al
ways danger lying behind this sub
tie calm. Three or four drops of al
cohol, such as form the basis of q
tincture which a doctor will order
without scruple, will bring back the
madness. One five minutes mad
vertance will upset the painful work
Of years, and carry one away as with
flood. When l did not know this
1 was constantly falling. Society
through all its parts is full of traps
and pitfalls for such as 1, and the
only refuge is in fight.
1t has been part Of my rule Of life
to avoid all responsibilities that
might involve others in my liability
to failure. 1t is now a very long
time since I have felt any abnormal
symptoms, and IF I had not so often
been thrown down after such a peri
cd of apparent calm, might fancy
my dangers Overland myself a sound
man. In the end I expect to con
quer, either here or hereafter. Ibe-
lieve in the Fatherhood of God, and
that He has a purpose even in let
ting us stumble through life as we
do; and through all my weakness
and unWorthiness 1 still hold His
hand. 1 know that the whole temp
tation is one of brain and nerves, and
when He chooses He can release me.
The poor brain will be cold and still
for good and all, and 1 shall be free
and able to see, 1 trust, why I have
been suffered thus to struggle. At
ter all, immortality opens a large
hope that may oyerpay the most
unspeakable bitterness Of life.
Meanwhile, you can see why I do
not wish to be brought into person
al relations with the only woman
have ever loved, or ever can loYe,and
whose happiness I fear to put in
peril.

The CHESAPEAKE AND ONO RAILROAD.
Last June the gentlemen interested in the
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad took two
million six hundred thousand dollars Of the
capital stock Of the Lexington and Big
Sandy railroad, being majority of five
million dollars capital stock Of that enter
prise Nioe hundred and fifty thousand
dollars have been subscribed by Fayette,
Clark, and Montgomery counties and the
city of Lexington, besides the private SUBJ
scription. The construction Of the road is
to be pushed forward as rapidly as practical
bic, SO as to afford the Chesapeake and
Ohio an outlet in this direction as soon as
possible after its completion to the mouth of
the Big Sandy river. This will give us a
shorter line to New York and other eastern
cities than any of the existing routes, and
by equation of grades and curves the differ.
ence will be greatly increased in favor of
the new road. louisville Courier.

The sales made in Richmond on Monday

in Baltimore on Thursday night by the

"What shame that the talents of the
Evartses, the Curtises, the Pierponts, should

The Valley Road.

The provisions of the city ordinance in
favor Of the Valley railroad have at last been
complied with on the part of the road aud
the city subscription Of 1 ,000,00O was yes
terday made. The subscription of the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad of 81 100000 was
made day previously. The road now has
stock basis of So, 100000. which is not only
an unusually large stock basis, but one
which by its very size protects the stock
from being sacrificed to the bondholders.
There are now two corps Of engineers in
the feld-one between Stauuton and Lex
ington and the other corps at Buchanan, in
Botetourt county. near Salem Between
Harrisonburg and Staunton two routs have
been surveyed. Both are ready to be put
under contract, and the selection depends
chiefly upon the liberality Of the landholders
who are interested in the completion OF the
road On one route $4,000 have been
subscribed, and the right of way has been
given for seventeen miles out OF twenty six
miles, which is the entire distance. On
the other line only $4,000 has been sub
scribed, and fifteen miles right of way has
ben granted. As preparations are now far
advanced, and as Mr.. Robert Garrett, Pres.
ident Of the road, gees out this morning
with two of the directors for the purpose Of
completing the arrangements for letting out
the road, there is nov little time left fol
those who really understand aud appreciate
the advantages Of great railload to seize
an opportunity, the neglect Of which may
| literally mar heir fortunes
There is some probability that a subscrip
ton will also be made by Salem and Har
risonburg. When We reflect that thes,
towns will be the two termlni of the road, i
is impossible not to feel that, in view of th,
immense benefits to be derived by then
from its completion, they will, to some ex
tent, place themselves on the same footin!
with the city Of Baltimore and the town
and counties Of Virginia who have show
their faith in the success Of this great enter
prise.
Within two weeks the president and di
rectors of the Valley road will be ready t
advertise for contracts. The entire rout
will be let without delay, and we shall 500
have the satisfaction Of seeing this impor
tant work, which is to do so much for tn
development of Virginia and to unite still
more strongly the destinies of two siste
States, pushed forward with vigorous ener

An EHalserial RIundeE

The profound statesman at Washington
proclaimed that Marion county, S. c., was
in state Of rebellion. He yesterday issu.
ed another proclamation to proclaim that the
first was falsehood, and that no rebellion
exists in said county Of Marion But not
to be baked to his thirst for blood and havoc,
he substitutes another county, Union, which
is put under the ban and denied bread and
water
The most charitable Interpretation of this
strange proceeding is that it was clerical
mistake The last proclamation does not
authorize US to adopt this conclusion. An
African Senator in South Carolina has the
credit of opening the eyes of the illustrious
President Of the United States. He testiG-
ed to the fact that the first proclamation was
false, and that there were not and had not
been any "un|awful combinations and con.
spiracies' 81 in said county of Marion, and
kindly suggested that it was mistake in
copying.
The great writ Of Liberty depending upon
the blunder OF a clerk shows what a noble
government we possess Why.

Friday Morning, Nov. 10, 1871.

The election returns from Augusta have
knocked the bottom out Of Independent Can
didates and Radicalism in this locality for
good and all, the regular Conservative
nominees being elected, by large majorities,
as will be seen from the returns in another
column, and the strongest Independent Can
didate only receiving 1858 votes. The
boosted 100 Radical voters didn't come to
time, and they werebadly beaten. TheRadi.
