THE New York Day Book is pouring its
hot shot thick and heavy into the Greeley
camp, and witha large class of Democrats,
that journal is not only a power, but the
political textbook by which they take their
Democratic vows and shape their entire po-
litical course. 1t spits on the action of the
Baltimore Convention as piece of political
treachery, unparalleled in the history of
the country, and calls on every true Demo-
crat to unite with them in crushing out
Horace Greeley and his 'cabel of sord!d,
soulless, unprincipled Democratic traitors"
engaged in the Baltimore treason. The
following is a fair specimen of the general
style and quality of the articles which it
is laundering through its forty-eight column
weekly:
democratic readers, this base job-the
taking up of Horace Greeley, the bitterest
enemy Of our party, by a so-called Demo-
cratic convention, convened for the purpose
of a Democratic commandments be met
by the stern rebuke of the great and OUT
ragged host. This traitors ticket must be
beaten. 1t is fraud upon the whole coun-
try. 1t is a fraud upon Greeley's party
proper, who have nominated U. 5. Grant
as the exponent of their principles, and it
is most damnable fraud upon the DEM
ocratic party, because Horace Greeley has
not one sentiment, one idea, one opinion in
harmony with the great and healthy princi-
pies of Jefferson, jackson and Buchanan,
and every true Democrat should put his
heel upon the Greeley ticket, and work
night and day, early and late, heart and
soul, to defeat it. 1t is base and infamous
trick upon the great three millions cf Dem
ocrats, who have waited twelve long years,
and most patiently, for an opportunity to
unite upon patriotic nomination T; and this
is the feast they are invited to-the support
of Horace Greeley, their bitterest enemy
and the yilest political blackguard of our
party, OF the entire past quarter Of a
century ~.

COLONEL THOMAS A. SCOTT.

The recent visit of Colonel Thomas A,
Scott to the Gulf States has been much
commented on by the public press. The
object he had in view was one of great inn
portance to the South, and can hardly fail
to be productive of greatly beneficial re-
suits. The New Orleans Republican has
capital article upon Colonel SCOTS four
words to the people Of that city, after he
had given them emphatic advice in favor of
the completion of a direct railroad be-
tween New Orleans and Shreveport, "Will
you 60 ?' The lassitude of the
people Of New Orleans in reference to this
great enterprise, says the Republican, is
something startling. II is true, they have
been wofully embarrassed by commercial
and speculative complications, but good
deal Of the delay should be charged upon
themselves. When Colonel Scott showed
them how this road could be built by SIM
ply raising two millions among themselves
and by relying upon the advantages of the
route to secure credit enough to raise the
other eight millions, and then put the ques.
ton, "Will you do it?' he reached their
hearts directly. r -
1t is well known that Col. Scott seeks to
establish a through line of rail from New
York to New Orleans, and il unnecessary
obstacles are not thrown in his way by the
several States through which sucha line OF
thoroughfare must pass he will most unques-
tionably accomplish his object. With any
thing like proper management on the part
of our people, this great through route of
| travel will include Richmond as one of the
leading cities to be accommodated by it;
and this great route would do more to-
wards making our city the centre of rail-
road facilities in the State than any other
that could be named.
What we want in Virginia is carefully
framed and well-guarded general railroad
law which shall encourage all legitimate
railroad enterprises alike. The more rail-
roads built by capital coming from outside
the State, the better for our people. Every
mile of road thus built adds so much
to the aggregate wealth of the State.
besides largely enhancing the value of all
real estate within miles of it's line
of construction. Nothing can be more
senseless than the idea that railroad must
be built by our own capital and managed
by our own people in order to be of benefit
to the State. If foreign capitalists expend
fifty millions in railroads in this State, it is
fifty millions added to our grand list, and
the several roads built have precisely the
same value to the people, in the accommo-
datioIs they afford, as if the capital We're
distracted from our other branches of in
dustry nay more, for the other branches
of industry, kept up by the unabstracted
capital, will add to the value of the road in
the ratio of their increase and permanence
along the line of railway transportation and
travel.
We hope the Legislature, at its next ses-
sion, will see the Importance of such gen.
eral railroad law as we have named, and
bring its best efforts to the work of duly
framing and passing it in the interests Of
the State. .... -..s-
