Louisvule.

The Louisville, (Ky.) Commercial,
in paragraph quoted by us in the
Dispatch, says:
"If the connection with the Chesapeake
and Ohio can be secured for that city by
the completion of the Big Sandy, Louis
vile will be the first city west Of the Al
leghsnies which the travel and traffic over
that route will reach, and all OF its con-
neetions will center and diverge from
there. Not,only the action OF the South
west. the western freights from the great
railroad system centering at st. Louis, but
all the grain from Central and Southern
Illinois, will come to Louisville TO find the
shortest and cheapest, because the easiest,
route over the Alleghanies to t:de-water
The opening of that road through to
Louisville would be the beginning Of a
new era in her growth and prosperity, as
at present all her connection east Is
through Cincinnati"
Exactly! And Louisville, through
her Press, has been expecting that
Richmond was to build the short bit
of road that is to secure for Louis
vile these important advantages !!
Louisville, rolling in wealth, must
get these great things through money
from poor Richmond, the child of
adversely ard calamity! 1t is pain
ful to hear it. We have reached
the Kentucky border after the en-
penditure Of millions, which cur peo-
pie are now burthened to pay; we
have built four hundred and twenty
miles of road, and Louisville hesitates
to make her connection with US by
the construction of some eighty miles
of road--Louisville. so rich, so -four
.shirg and whose future growth is so
much dependent upon her energy
and liberality in completing her line
Of connection with the roads that
open the gates of the Chesapeake 10
her commerce.
We cannot doubt that 4 proper
view of their interests and their dan
ger will induce the people of Louis
vile to make an effort to throw their
line to Huntington in advance OF
Cincinnati. They have less road to
build, and there is no apology for de-
lay. -Richmoad Dispatch.

DESTRUCTION BY FRosT AT Nor
FOLK, VA.-The Norfolk Landmark
gives the following details of the lies
tructive effects in that vicinity by
the frosts of Saturday and Sunday
last. 1t says:
We have reports from several To-
ca!ities, showing that ice was strong
enough to bear a heavy man, and in
some sections the ground was frozen
to the depth OF four inches. The fol-
lowing is q very eOrrec, statement
of the extent of this great misfortune,
and the damage sustained in the vi
entity Of Norfolk: The pear crop is
entirely cut oft. The Hon. John b.
Whitehead has $500 pear trees, 3
900 being Duchess, 1900 Bartlett,
and 1000 of other varieties, fron
which he expected to ship 5000
bushels Colonel q. L. B. Leighton
has 1000 pear trees, which would
have produced crop worth $40, 900.
Other large pear growers have lost III
the same proportion. Pmms peach
es and cherries are nearly all cut off,
and apples are considerably injured.
The esrly straw berries are entirely
ruined; also all kinds of early vege-
tables.
In some instances truckers have
los, their entire stock of tomato
plants, numbering thousands. The
loss on traits and vegetables is vari-
ouslv estimated at fyom $500 900 TO
81 ,000,000. Some idea Of the IN.
tensity Of the cold can be formed
from the fact that in some places the
little creeks which make up from the
river ere wholly frozen over.

that il Gov. Jacob had ex-
MS constitutional RICH; and had
the same candor and strength
n which he has argued the eousti
aliouality of the law, and IL oblisa-
,iun on him, refused to sign the bill
aud returned it 10 the Legislature
with his reasons for diSapproval, he
would have at least earned Tor MIN

weakness however in this letter when
he says, in speaking of the f'ct,
"that il is neither stItesmaullSe or
wise To make the capitol of State

not the duty of a Governor when
