GENERAL RAILROAD law.

We invite particular attention to an
article, which we print to-day, on the rail.
road policy of Virginia, by distinguished
citizen Of this State, thoroughly capable of
treating this important topic. Tho people
of Virginia are thoroughly aroused to the
necessity Of opening up highways for travel
and freight adequate to her mighty re-
sources. They see themselves now at the
mercy of conflicting corporations, Of greedy
lobbyists and sntiquated oil hunkers, who
block the wheels of progress, and condemn
the people to poverty and inferiority. They
demand the protection and aid of generous
legislation to invite capital, immigration
and enterprise, by throwing out to oil the
world friendly welcome.
A general railroad law, well-guarded
but liberal in its provisions, is the only
policy adapted to our present needs. 1t
will bring capital and enterprise to open
up our neglected resources, and give us the
Astounding prosperity which blesses other
states even less richly endowed than our.
selves.

rare beauty. oloquence and power, and was
listened to with marked attention by n
highly appreciative audience. 1t ia to be

the attendance of many of our citizens, and
also that the engagements of the distin.

the early train this morning.
