THE DRIFT.


The political tendencies of the Ameri.
can people have been thoroughly
sampled" by the State elections of the
past six months. The popular feeling
has been tested not only in one spot,
but in several-not only in one section
of the country, but all over the country.
To illustrate State elections have been
held this year in New Hampshire in
the extreme East, and in Oregon in
the extreme West, in Kentucky and
Tennessee in the centre, in North Caro-
lima on the South Atlantic coast, and
in Arkansas in the valley of the Missis-
sippi Thus all parts of the Union
have been sampled y New England,
the Pacific, the centre, the South, the
Southwest. and (including the New
York town clcction) the middle Allan
tic. Without single exception, wher.
ever there has been n contest between
parties, the Republicans have been dis
astrously beaten. Here is the record
of the changes in two years.

The ELIGIBILITY OF DUELlSTs TO Con-
GRESs.-The Dispatch of Thursday makes u
l. of a mistake in its view or this question.
In the first place, it spells the word duelist
with two rs, and hcnce we are satisfied,
upon the authority of ali modern lexico-
graphers, that however the argument upon
the legal points involved may result, we
have beaten it out Of sight on the spelling.
1t won't do for it to lay this blunder to the
charge Of the Devil Enquirer.
son the contrary, quite the reverse" You
are as clearly wrong in the spelling of the
word as in the law Of the case. All mod
ern photographers " except WEBSTER, and
all good ones Of every age, spell and have
spelled the word " duelist" with two els.
WEBSTER supposed that the second " |" in
"trayeller,'' 90 dueliist," &e., was unneces-
sary. 1t seemed to him to be useless and
out of place. But he didn't know every
thing. TRENCH says of the "g" in "reign"
that it is" silent on the tongue, but eloquent
to the eye" Sc the second 81" is put into
!" duellist," ''trayeller,"H &C., to tell the eye
at the first glance that they are words of
three syllables. The natural .supposition
would be that they were words Of two syl.
tables if they were spelled with only one
"l"-as due-list," traveller" So
changelipg,n if it were word Of three
syllables would have to be spelled with two
els

A SIMPLE REsEpy.-Eyery one accustome

A SIMPLE REAEDY.--Every one accustomed
to travel by rail has noticed the crowding
and jostling that takes place between those
who want to get off the car and those who
want to get on when the train stops at q
station. The passengers who are at their
journeys end ought to have the right Of way
through the narrow door and down the
platform steps, but the impatient people,
who fear that all the seats in the car will be
taken up before they get in, will not waite
them, and the result is q struggle for prece-
dence most provoking to all engaged. We
sometimes meet with that politeness which
yields and waits, but it is rather rare except
in private dwellings. In public convey
ances, as general rule, the average Ameri-
can citizen, male or female, has great de-
sire to secure whatever may be most eligi-
BILE by being first, or at least as far from
last as circumstances will permit. -
The Boston Advertiser suggests very
simple remedy for the jostling and jamming
now experienced by all who take the cars
or leave the cars at way stations, Let rail-
road companies make rule requiring all
passengers to leave the cars by the front
door and enter by the rear. A notice to
this effect should be conspicuouSly posted
in every car, and the conductor might also
be required to call attention to the notice
when he calls out the station. Placards
might also be hung up at the ticket Offices
and In the waiting-rooms, so that the travel.
ling public might be advised Of the rule. In
short time, entering car by the rear door
and leaving by the forward door would be.
come fixed habit, practiced by all travellers,
except, perhaps, by those who are making
their first trip.

The Clifton Forge Road.

A very interesting project, especially
worthy the attention Of the people of Rich
mond, is now under earnest consideration.
ii is a railroad from Clifton Forge to
Buchanan. The immediate object OIL 'is'to
construct road bywhich the coal OF the
Kanawha Valley may be brought to the rich
iron mines Of Rockbridge and Botetourt.
Those mines are not developed except par
tiaiIy-only enough to show their great
value. With the fine coal of the kanawha
brought to them they could be worked with
immense profit and to the great advantage
OF the State. RI
This object is interesting to all. But the
point of peculiar interest to the people OF
Richmond in the enterprise is, that this road
to buchanan will form part of the pro-
jected road from Clifton Forge cia Lynch.
burg to Richmond. That is the point that
directly affects our interests. To the extent
that it SO interests Richmond does it interest
the State Of Virginia.
By the James river route the ponderous
freights from The West may be brought to
this city upon the easiest grades, thus avoid
Ing the steep grades Of Allegheny, Bath,
Rockbridee, and Augusta, on the Chesa-
peake and Ohio road. We indeed accomp-
lish double purpose in the construction Of
this river route. We avoid the sharp grades
above alluded to, and We put the heavy
freights in line from which they can hardly
be diverted before they reach Richmond,
to be there handled, traded In, manufac.
featured, or Immediately shipped to sea,
This is the point to which the attention Of
the people of this city must be steadily d.
rected. They must now be on thealert, and
for once play out really Richmond hand
All Virginia should combine to give Rich
mond the direct benefit OF this important
line. All Virginia should SO combine for the
sake or Virginia, since Richmond is the
great tax payer of the State; and in no other
way can the State SO multiply her public reve'
nue. as by cherishing this city.
There are questions ofright of way which
must be considered, and which will have due
attention in the progress of the subject. The
people of the valley Of the James, west OF
the Blue Ridge, are greatly aroused upon
this enterprise.
