ural that his despairing thoughts should turn
thitherward again in the dark days of the rev.
olution.
AT the date, 1776, of these reputed words
of Washington, the District of West Augus-
ta'' had been long known as distinct
and different section from the county of Au-
gusta, and had its separate delegation in the
Va. Convention Of IT'S, and was assigned
distinct delegation, as the District of West
Augusta" In the old Va. Constitution of l776.
In July 1776 (Henings' Statutes, 262), an
act passed entitled AN act for ascertaining the
boundaries between the county of Augusta
and the District of West Augusta, and for d.
viding the said District into three distinct coun-
ties" The new counties were named Ohio,
Monongalia and Yohogania; subsequently, o.
settling the State boundaries, Yohogania com
prising all the region around Pittsburg, fell to
Pennsylvania and in 1885 ceased to be coun-
ty of Virginia, and the territory and the title
Of West Augusta lapsed into Pennsylvania. =

The President has issued proclamation in
regard to the enforcement of the Ku Klux
law, "enjoining upon all good citizens, and es-
pecially upon all public officers, to be jealous
in the enforcement thereof, and warning all
persons to abstain from committing any of the
acts thereby prohibited
''This law of Congress applies to all parts of
the u. S.. and will be enforced everywhere, to
the extent of the powers vested in the Execu-
tive. But, inasmuch as the necessity there
for is well known to have been caused chiefly
by persistent violations of the rights of citi-
zens of the T. S., by combinations of lawless
and disafected persons in certain localities,
lately the theatre of instruction and military
conflict, do particularly exhort the people of
those parts Of the country to suppress all such
combinations by their own voluntary efforts
through the agency of local laws, and to main
tain the rights of all citizens of the u. S., and
to secure to all such citizens the equal protec-
ton of the laws.
For ourselves we hope that in the whole
Southern country there will not be any occur
renee to afford the slightest excuse for the ex-
erclse of the unconstitutional power given to
the President in the law, or which can be used
as a justification for the suspension of the ha-
beas corpus, the use of the military, or other
arbitrary measures now allowed by Congress
sional legislation.

The following letter, addressed to the Enouii

was received last evening by, the Chesapeake

writing with the signature of Beard at one OF
the hotels renders its genuneness certain, and
the jailor and others who have seen notes from
him say that this letter was evidently written
by him.
We are not familiar With the cheyalier's chi
Biography, but know that the hand writing OF
the appended epistle is identical with a letter
shown us year or more ago which purported
to be written by him.-Enquirer of 4th.

Stanton to Richmond distance 1876 miles) is
64 cents
The cost Of carrying a barrel of flour. from
Harrisonburg to .Alexandria distance 1856
miles) is As cents
Thus the charge of the Chesapeake & Ohio
koad is l9 cents per barrel more than on the
Orange & Alexandria Manassas Road, for
the same distance
The effect of this high charge on the road to
Richmond, is to drive to Baltimore trade that
used to seek the Richmond market
The dividing line Of the trade to Baltimore
used to run a very little South of Harrison
burg. But the difference of 10 cents per bar
rel in transportation, is gradually pushing the
line OF division further South, and unless there
is reduction by the Chesapeake & Ohio
Road the day is not distant when most of the
trade North of Staunton, will go to Baltimore
lhoae are practical suggestions If carried
into effect they will yield fruits Immediately
There need be no waiting on the remote future
They are not merely practical, but they are
practicable They can be carried into effect All
that is necessary, is activity, energy and CO.
operation Mr., Huntingdon and his associates
arc sensible and practical men, Let the Board
of trade and the Corn Exchange of Richmond,
take the proper measures to bring this matter
TO the attention of the Directors of the road
at its next meeting, and we cannot doubt that
il would receive the proper consideration.
We may offer some other suggestion hereaf-
ter to our Richmond friends, but this must
suffice for the present.
