The New Railroad to the Sea.

On the first Of February the first
passenger train arrived at Richmond,
Va, ffom the Ohio river, over the
Chesapeak and Ohio Railroad. For the
present, Richmond is the terminus of
this new route, but will soon be con-
tinued to Newport News, at the mouth
of the James river, near Hampton
Roads. This road may fairly be classed
as one of the great outlets of the inland
to the sea, it now connecting the Ohio,
at Huntington, West Virginia with the
sidewater of the James at Richmond.
The course Of the road is the same as
that Of highway surveyed by George
Washington during early days, and
which has been in use for an hundred
years. The railroad was begun in 1886
soon after the introduction of loco
motives, and at the commencement OF
the civil war had two hundred miles
in operation. In 1869 NJ. II. AspinWell,
A. a. Low and others took the road in
hand, and its completion through to
Ohio on the Goth inst, was the result.
1t will prove in time, to be the great
highway of the middleSouthern States,
FOR business will flow to it as natural as
water to the lowest point.

The Cadiz Republican in an article
upon the connection of Hon Jno. a.
BinghalA with the Credit Mobiler, says:
AT first we th0ggitit matter OF
regret that Mr. Bingham should ever
have given two thousand dollars to
Oakes Amcs To invest for him in any
thing. But in the whole transaction
there is rot 4 shadow OF evidence OF
any corrupt motive or any corrupt ac-
ton. And to ask that a man in pub
lie life for twenty years shall always
conduct MS private affairs SO carefully
rs never to leave an opportunity iOr|
ceazura from his enemies, Is TO ask =
ftyor that has never been vouchsafed
10 any eminent man in history. But
whatever may be ones Surroundings
there is a lnfuite distance between
guile and Innocence, and the American
people are able 10 distinguish between
the two. And in the light of the
Credit SIobilier investigation, John \.
to-day commands the re-
spect and confidence of intelligent men
OF al parties to a degree never equalled
in his past life.'7

EDITOR CHRoNICLE:-Until recent,
ly the fine sleighing has so occupied
our minds and originated so many
places of amusement for US to attend,
that we had almost forgotten to ac'
quaint your readers with the local
news of our place. But since the warm
rains and sunshine of the past few days
has sent the Beautiful snow" cours-
ing toward the mighty deep, we have
been thrown back upon our own refiec-
tions; and looking back over the dim
vista of the past few weeks We find
that wonderful things have transpired
heretofore unnoticed. II is true we
have been visited by no wild beasts
such as .'Giles" of Businessburgh, has
been blowing his conch so loud about,
that devours man and beast (blood-
raw and bids defence to all their eff
forts to capture the "varmint." But
more wonderful than this by far. We
were visited by the Oakland String
band on Saturday night the 8th inst
This band is headed by Prof. S. Doug
lass, the noted violinist, Che makes it
speeiality,) while McGaughy plays
seconds, Scatterday bass, G. Milligan,
Jr. grinds the organ, and Coulter
"comes down Columbus" on the trian-
gle. The entertainment had been pre-
viously announced, and by G P. NJ. the
school house was crcwtlrd to overflow
ing. At 6! the troupe arrived, and,
after elbowing their way through the
crowd, they finally gained the rostrum.
By this time the excitement ran pret-
ty high, but by a signal from the lead
er all was hushed to quietness except
an occasional mufiled oath from the
under layer of the male portion of the
audience. After q good deal of saving
and having exhausted the last speck of
resin they at last struck out on "Ala-
bama again." by the time they had
finished the second stanza the excite
ment began to prevail again, and when
they played two Or three others of the
most popular airs, such as Yankee
Doodle" and the ''Old Grey Horse in
Wilderness" it was intense. During
the confusion that ensued the lights
were blown out. The result can more
easily be imagined than told. The
groans of the males, the shrieks of the
females, old ipon aud women looking
for Overcoats, shawls and furs; young
men looking for "sweethearts" and
the incessanu grinding Of the organ
which had never stopped from the
first, Notwithstanding it was five
stopped organ, presented a scene such
as the Oldest inhabitant had never saw
nor will, we hope, soon see again. The
entertainment was pronounced by the
larger portion as grand success.
Revs. Shaw and Kountz commence
series of meetings here on Saturday,
the 22nd inst. which will be likely to
continue until Quarterly meeting,
which will be the End Of March.
Some of the farmers are beginning
to run short of feed. We presume ii
we should have late spring that
|sheep-pelts will be plenty.

made God known, but in truth it has
made known more devil than Deity,
and played an internal part towards
the heart and life of man far more than
heavenly. The anathema has been
the headlight of the Christian engine,
and Christianity has been more ready
to curse and damn than to bless and
comfort man."
Can the friends Of Christianity and
of virtue and a sound national mOrali-
ty maintain neutrality, when the ''de-
mands" of Liberalism, as seen in the
above extracts, would sweep every
shred and vestage of "Christian" NOR
al;ty from all the institutions OF this
Christian nation? When Infidelity
demands" the abolition of every fea-
ture of the "Christian". civilization
which gave distinctive moral features
to the Common Law" of this land
to the features Of the. first and simplest
forms of this goverlment-tO the Dec
laration of Independence-to the State
Constitution5-tot the laws, State and
National-to the administrations, and
to the time-honored usages OF every
department of our government, with
all its legitimate offspring, our Institu-
tions of fCharity and our highest type
of civilization? Are we ready for the
change that will abolish the Sabbath
the Bible in our public schools, ahd in
the end the schools themselves? That
will Danish the Bible, from all our
Charitable Institutions, and in the end
abolish them! That will Danish the
Bible from every prison of the State,
and in the end abolish the reformatory
life-principle of penalty! And then,
are we prepared to legallze polygamy,
and every form of licentionsness op-
posed to a Christian civiiizat on p
Rather, let us hear what a Christian
Statesnan-Hon. Horatio Seymour
in an Address on "Prison Reform"-
has to say:
"There is prevailing idea that the
spread acknowledge will check crime;
but in my opinion it is no specific for
immortality and vice. Without moral
and religious training it frequently be-
comes an aid to crime. Science, me-
chanical skill, knowledge of business
affairs, refinements and accomplish
ments of life are used by offenders
against law. knowledge fights on
both sides in the battle between right
and wrong. The most dangerous
criminal is the educated, intellectual
violator of law; learning by itself ouly
changes the aspect of immortality. We
must look beyond the accidents of
knowledge.or ignorance if we wish to
learn the springs of action. To check
sin there must be high moral standards
in the public mind"
In this address, Mr.. Seymour, as a
wise statesman, refers US to "moral
and religious training" not to mere
"secular" training for the safety of the
State. For "high moral standards in
the public mind" nc never dreamed
of the highest "moral standards" of
Atheism or Infidelity. But the "high
moral standards" of the Christianity of
his own Christian government and its
christianized Institutions, from its lof-
ty and noble asylums for unfortunate
humanity, to its most dreary cell for
the vilest criminal, from whom the
Infidel demands" the Bible to be
wrested by law. Why?

School Hall, on Friday evening. Sub
Iject, the "Animal Creation, ,"-i. e. the
dog! Unfortunately, most Of his au-
dience did MT wait to hear him through.
The only difficulty is that the Prof.
didn't copyright his lecture, and Mark
Twain, Nasby, "John," and several
other second rate authors have copied
his lecture till it has got to be old on
his hands. The audience thought il
was the "doggedest" bore they ever
saw. All the audience he had at the
close, with the exception of two, were
representatives of the press, or his
ticket agents, or the. school board.-
We noticed Messrs. Nuzum & Leet of
the defunct Standard, Mesdames
Hoover & Hall of the Commercial.
Messrs. Anderson & ThralI of the In
dependent, and DR.. Judkins, formerly
of that paper, and about six-eights of
the editorial corps Of the Notion. The
most astounding revelation he made
was that every dog has ten tails, which
he proved.
