Hon, a, II. Fl. Stuart.

Augusta County is about to set noble ex-
ample to the other counties of the State In the
nomination of Hon. A Ell. Ell. Stuart, her first
citizen, and the first statesman in the Com
monwealth, for the House of Delegates. 1t is
by pursuing this wise policy always, that Au-
gusta has secured more for herself and the town
of Staunton, than any other county in the State
has secured of legislative favor. We would not
be surprised il she would enter the lists again
to complete for the new lunatic asylum that is
to be established. Let all the counties do as
Augusta is about to do, and though few of them
have men like Mr.. Stuart, they can select and
send 10 the Legislature the best they have
Ia this way we will get such General Assem-
bly, as the State needs at this crisis Lynch

The increase Of business done by the Ches
and Ohio Railroad is very astonishing. The
increase of passengers and freight is very great
To meet the increased demands, the company
have to be almost continually buying new en-
gines and cars. Within the past week, as we
learn from the Dispatch, the company have
contracted with some of the first makers 10 the
United States for ffts-four new freight engines
Of the best class, and are just receiving one
thousand tons of Steal rails. to be followed up
rapidly by other large supplies.
These steel rails are designed to replace so
much iron rail as yet remains in the main track,
and thus release the latter, SO that it may be
used in the construction of branches to some of
the iron and coal mines which are little away
from tie main line.
Some of these branches are already complet
ed and others are in process of construction
Their length varies from one to seven miles.
The business Of the Chesapeake and Ohio

amounting to $15l, S9422. The business for
