COL. RICHMOND'S MOVE
MENT.
Losing the Chain to get the Link

We Lave no means of knowing
to what extent an attempt TO co.
cree a forward movement on the
Cumberland Gap extension would
disastrously affect that enterprise.
But we have always believed and
maintained that it would impair its
progress. Col. Richmond, the
delegate from Scott, has introduced
into the House measure asking
the State TO compel the A. NJ. &
Co, to 60 forward with the work,
without regard to a Kentucky con-
ncction. We have no sort of doubt
that the Legislature will refuse to
do so, and at first view it would
seem that such a refusal would
leave matters no worse for. us than
they are. If this movement had
come from some otEer section of
the State this pleasant inference
would be more warrantablc. Un-
fortunately it may be regarded as
Il blow from quarter whose friend
ly cooperation was most to have
leen expected, and some action al
lowing more latitude of route TO
the company may possibly be the
result.
The Lynchburg News, which of
all of our State Journals has been
most hostile to the Administration
and measures on which a hope of
the Kentucky connection have been
based, very forcibly states that it
would he madness to thrust in front
OF the State lein, debt of six more
millions, which would not only be
unfruitful of tturn TO the company
but actually a drain upon its pre-
sent sources of revenue. Ii there
be no connection at Cumberland
Gap, it will be impossible to run
the road TO that point so as to yield
a cent whe-ewith to pay the four
millions due the State, and it is tax
ing human nature to q very great
extent to expect that even tie
people of the State would be so
much welded to our local interest
in the extreme. Southwest as
willing to subordinate thereto, that
four million debt and also the in
tcgrity of the road from Bristol to
Norfolk. We have been afraid to
ask the State to ieopardise the line
TO FAVE The Cumberland Gap link,
fearing it would determine to alan
don the link TO save the line. We
sincerely hope however that nc
such response may be evoked by
by Col. Rsllmond's bill, but that
both the State and the company
will agree to give us the kentucky
link whenever the Kentucky roads
shall engage to carry it through TO
tbe Ohio. We think this is as
mucll as we can ask and We are
sure we ought not to get less.

RV CELEBRATION OF THE 22ND IN
TowN.-The Orde:. of Red Men having
decided r. celebrate the 22nd, chose
saturday the 2lst. The day was bright
and far, and at an early hour members
of the Order from Maryland were seen
vending their way to the Wigwam,
where at IL o'clock they were formed
in procession under r. w. Grove, Chief
Marshal, assisted by Van S. Brashears,
and headed by the Sharpsburg Band,
marched up German street to Duke, ont
Duke to the suburbs, where they were
met by Opequon Tribe, No. 4, headed
by the High st. Band, of Martinsburg,
all under direction of G. O. Lambert,
Marshal. The procession marched back
Duke to German, down German to the
Lutheran Church. After entering and
being seated the Choir favored the au-
-dience with that beautiful Introductory,
"Charity" After singing,the Great Pro-
phet, Rev. VIM. Gerhart, offered up a
fervant prayer, trusting that the Order
before him would initiate those virtues
which the great chief possessed, the an
niversary of whose birth we to-day Gel
citrate. II. NJ. Price, Esq, Of Martins
burg, was then introduced to the audi
ence, and spoke for some time on Free
dom and Friendship, as held and taught
by the Order. A. Oden, Esq, of Ope-
quon Tribe, No. 4, of Martinsburg, was
next introduced and spoke at some
length on Friendship and Charity. The
remarks of the speaker were well-timed
and elected the attention of his audi
ence. The next and last speaker intro
duced was Zach. T. Brantner, of Mar
tinshurg, D, D. G. S. of w. Va, who
entertained the audience for a short
time on the aims and objects of the Or
der. After singing by the Choir and
benediction by the Great Prophet, the
procession reformed and marched
through the principal streets Of the town
to the Wigwam when they were dis
missed. The music on the occasion,
both by the Choir and Bands, was of
an excellent quality. The procession
numbered 10 in full regalia, Opequon
Tribe had their new banner in front,
while the Cherokees and Black Hawks
displayed Charters, War Clubs, Toma-
hawks, Bows and Arrows, Canoe, Gala
NUT, &c. 1t is seldom that our town is
favored with such large and orderly
body of men and great credit is due to
Black Hawk Tribe of this place, for
originating and carrying out the enter
prise.

Yet bliss awaits the holy heart,
Amid the bowers of heaven.

Along the restless wave.
For though our pleasures may depart,
And darksome days be given
Our only hopes we can enjoy,
