lowing Card from D. B. Lucas Withdrawing
his name:
CnAn1Esrows, Sept. 2oth, 1871.
TO The Nominating Conrenti0" for Jc.gtrsoH
County:
Believing it probable that my name may be
proposed for nomination, as one OF tho dele
gates to The Constitutional Convention, have
Tluccd this communication in the hands Of n
friend to DO read to your body, in the con-
tipgeucy referred to. Should my name be
Proposed, | ask that it be rith'irGrH, for rca.
sous partly personal, and in part connected
with the harmony o! your dclibCraiiuns, aud
the success of your candidates, You have
older and ADLER men, willing to represent you,
and who, il selected, will carry with them a
weight Of iunucGcc which could NOT cUm-
nand.
Let me take the liberty of impressing upon
you tho importance Of sending your bust men
to the Convention; men whose experience,
ability and knowledge Of constitutional law
will cuublc them to promote the beat interest
of the Commonwealth aud to represent with
credit the intelligence, wealth, aud legitimate
influence of our county, bet every man
whose name is proposed to your body, he con-
sidGred as pledged, through his friends, tos sup
port your nominees; aud, it possible, let
every nomination DO declared Nanimo@,-
Above all, let no mere local prejudiccs or dis,
cussiODs ugilatc your body. It's only by sac
rifccs, harmony, and organization that victory
eau be assured
Although do not desire ut present to re-
ccivc any political nomination or Office, yet my
interest in the constitutional reforms 50 much
needed in our State will remain unubnted, ind
it is probable that | may take an opportunity,
through the press, to express my views more
fully than did during our late canvass.
In conclusion, let mo call your especial OF.
tention to the subject of RaiirUud Frcights,
and advise you to nominate no man for the
Legislature not 10 favor OF their Reduction to
the standard fixed by tbeirresprctiyr charters.
Such reduction will be an annual saving TO
your County Of from thirty to fifty thousand
dollars Farmers look to your interest in
this matter! 1t is an issue moro important
to you than any other.
To my friends by whom have been ap-
preached, and requested to allow the use of
my name, return my sincere thanks, nud as
sure them that whenever any blow Of mine
can advance their interest, or that OF the
County or State, will strike boldly, and with
such efficiency as may be able to command.
Very Respectfully,
DANIEL b. Lucas.

~ Judge Underwood has written Al letter
to The Fairfax county News, in which he gives
notice, that having "maturoly considered" tho
subject, she feels very confident that the 18th
aud 10Th amendments Of the U. S. Constitu.
ton together with the enforcement act of May
81, 1870, have secured the right to vote, to
our female citizens as fully as they arc now
exercised and enjoyed BY male citizens" Ho
prefaces this with sayiOg:-"I would not be
understood as prejudging any case that may
be brOugh. before me for official action and
shallalways be open for conviction and change
Of opinion on every legal question" But it
is sufficiently obvious that If a case is made up
for his decision, the right of female suffrage
will DO ad,nitted-as far as bis decision will
go-iu this State. Else why this notice
and apparent Invitation to test the question
BY uu appeal to him. So look out for an at.
tempt at a new agitation.

The Valley Railroad.
From thc sllunton yllgiuI.n


Tbs survey of tho western or Glade route
Orthc Valley Railroad between Staunton aud
IIarrisonburg, which has been progressing for
the past SIX weeks, under assistant engineer
cambridge, has been completed, and the per-
maueut location determined should this route
DO selected. Tho cost of the two routes is
about the same, aud as We have been inform.
ed BY Mr.. cambridge, the final location OF the
route now rests with the people along the res
pectivo lines. On the Glade route, there
have been 50 releases Of land damages, and
$4,000 10 stock subscribed. onthe eastern,
or Mount Sidney route, there have been only
81 releases, and sl5, 900 in stock taken. The
friends Of this latter line are now actively
engaged in trying to secure additional sub
scriptious aud other releases. As the matter
now stands, the chances arc decidedly in IA
favor the Glade route, and il the people along
the eastern line do not exhibit more liberality
than has heretofore characterized their action,
they certainly will lose tho road. Mr.. Dam
dridgc informed us that it was now ques-
ton Of private liberality, aud iuasmuch as the
two routs presented about tho same advanH
tages, the whole matter would have to be de-
tefpiued by the people themselves, The
final action Of tho board will be had within
the next fifteen days.
Tho above We clip from the stauutOu |iir>
ginian, hoping that it will DO read carefully
by the gentlemen who were appointed by the
last Circuit Court, at Charlestown, to condemn
the lands required III this county BY the Shcn'
audOah Valley Railroad. ilIbe observed
that, along the Glade route alone, from stnun'
ton to IlarisOnburg-a distance certainly not
exceeding 25 milcs-therC have been as many
as 50 releases Of land damages by persons
through whose land the road is to pass, aud as
much as $50 900 in stock subscribed. Sup.
posing the distance from HarrisOuburg to
Stanton to be no greater than we have csti,
ma,ed-aud We do not think it is-therc have
been more than twice as many releases as
there arc miles between the two points ;-or,
in other words suppOsiug each farmer, through
whose land the route lies, to own BALI mile
of land immediately upon tho line, not a
single one between the two places charged
any damages. -four estimate Ofthc amount
oflaud Owned is too great, We have two re-
leases to throw in for good measure. The
people Of Jefferson arc certainly not poorer, or
more oppressed with taxation, than those Of
Augusta aud Rockingham, and have never
heretOfOrcshOwu themselves less public spirit.
ed. We hope that when the Commissioners
to whom We have alluded, visit those through
whose land the road is to pass, they will be
met with becoming public spirit and liberality
