Henry A. WISE is indignant at the
rumOr that he proposes to be an in
dependent candidate fog Governor.
Though eccentric, we never believed
him capable of thus giving aid to the
Radicals in their efforts, to dishonor
and enslaye the land of his nativity.
The governmentweuld freelygivehim a
large bonus in consideration Of such
candidacy, but though he may err. be

INan editorial on the Credit No

marks that it would not be surprised
at any depth of infamy that might be
discovered in political circles in the
United States, since "the gentleman of
the South have been suppressed by the

ONE of the proprieters of this paper
had an interview, a few days since,
with prominent citizen of Hickman
county, on the subject of the Clarks-
vile & Waynesboro railroad. The
gentleman interviewed was very earn
est in his advocacy of the road, and
stated that the people, between the two
points were becoming fully alive to the
importance of the project and would
contribute largely towards making it a
success-not caring however, for its
extension north of this place. He
said that the tobacco of the several
counties interested would all be brought
to this market and its culture largely
extended; that corn, wheat, beef, pork,
wool, tan bark, peanuts and variety Of
other articles would be brought here
either for sale or shipment-thus In
creasing the business and growth Of
GAINESVILLE, to a greater extent than
any railroad project that has been sug.
gested. In addition to this, he argued
that the development of the iron trade
would add immensely to the business
of the road and of GAINESVILLE, and thai
the owners of iron works already il
operation, would be liberal contribu
tors to the building Of this road.
4 In view of heinterest manifested il
the construction of the road from THU
point to Waynesboro, we think step
should be taken to ascertain, in prac
teal way, the chances for its success
We have argued, heretofore, the i'm
portance Of this road to GAINESVILLE
and have never wavered in the belle
thatit is the road for this town. w
shall not dwell longer upon the subjec
at this time.

He is firmer. He WAS elected
