We see that DR.. j. b. Stovall, who is
spoken of as the Republican candidate for
Congress in the Pittsylvania district, has
rendered his resignation as deputy collector
of internal revenue, on the ground that no
one ought to be a candidate or aspirant for
any other political position while holding a
Federal office. This shows that Virginia
delicacy, and the high sense of honor
which has long characterized the politics of
the State, are not dying out. DR.. Stovall
is deservedly popular in his district, and we
should rejoice to see him elected.

between the capitalist and the laborer.
That is certainly better than organizations
Of either class to promote hostility between
the two. The more open, frank and free

ANOTHER RAILROAD ARRANGEMENT

No one can fail to admire the energetic
and persistent efforts Of Mr.. Thomas Scott,
of the Pennsylvania Central Railroad, to
meet the necessities and demands of the
public, in furnishing the best and shortest
lines of railroad communication which are
attainable on the great routes of thorough
fare in the country. The long and appar-
entity bitter struggle between Mr.. Scott and
John Taylor johnson, President of the
Long Branch Road, has been abruptly and
amcably terminated by the following adj
iustment of difficulties: The settlement
concluded a few days ago was made on the
basis of union bridge across the Raritan
river with sufficient draw for the commerce
| of the Delaware and Raritan canal, and a
union track from the river to the junction
of the Perth Amboy and Woodbridge
branch of the Pennsylvania railroad. By
this arrangement Mr.. johnson gets control
of the line to Long Branch connecting with
the New Jersey Central at Elizabeth, and
Mr.. Scott for the Pennsylvania Central
controls another all rail line from New York
to Philadelphia via Perth Amboy and Cam
den, making shorter and better route than
has heretofore existed. The bridge and un-
completed lines and connections are to be
vigorously prosecuted, and it is promised
that the through road to Philadelphia will
be running by January l, 1878, and that
the Long Branch road will be finished by
July /, 1878. This settlement secures rail-
road connections of great moment to the
public, develops hitherto neglected por-
ton of New Jersey, and makes of Perth
Amboy an important railway centre.
