speech made by Governor kEMrER TO the
"Richmond Knights" upon the occasion o.
their return from Massachusetts as IL proc
that the spirit of rebellion is still alive:
"You went as Virginians should 90; moi

some of you with the smoke Of battle still
upon your garments, proud to be greeted by
The men of New England, not humbly rs in
feriors, but With pride, as the peers of the
loftiest."
Exactly! Do the people who carp at this
paragraph suppose that the people of Massa'
chusetts desired or expected to tiud in their
guests pack of dogs? Would they wish to

that single point made b." the Dispatch Is
answered by the Chronicle. 10 what the
Chronicle says about The growing wealth and
power of the Ohio cities we earnestly con-
cur. But that growth and wealth depend
more for its continued increase upon the
eastern line Of transit than the northern anu
southern; and we assumed that 1t was n ! !.
wise in Cincinnati to cripple her resources
for the construction Of the proper route lot
her communication with the east. The
lake cities are crowding her, and her BEST
protection against their rivalry is line strik'
ing eastward to the Atlantic 10 the LATITUDE

The southern line to Chattanooga, We re-
| neat. il not likely to be thrifty passenger
line: for the Cuff people are not going TO
Cincinnati to buy imported goods. Nor can
Cincinnati be cotton market. The great
business of the Chattanooga line will be the
TRANSFORMATION Of Ohio produce, and it will
be found a costly business to build a ROAD
for that, when the Mississippi aud the pre-
sent means of distribution by railroad would
he ample for that purpose. !
We therefore adhere to our opinion that
the Cincinnati and Chattanooga railroad is
heavy draught upon the resources of Cincln
natl. and must seriously diminish her ability
10 strengthen her true line of communities
ton with the Atlantic tide. That is the
line of her greatest commerce. Isis the line
upon which she will finally have to rely ior
protection from her greatest rivals.
We know that the best line OF commerce
for Cincinnati is ria The James River valley
| and this city: of course this makes us none
the less auxious to see that prosperous west
crn CITY devote her best means and Influence
to this route. Nevertheless, We do feel an
interest in that city that we would entertain
whether there were any sympathies between
that city and Richmond or not. 1t was the
first of Ohio cities, and ran up 10
very high prosperity by dint OF the
energy and enterprise of her people,
and we certainly felt no satisfaction
in seeing her lett behind by the great City OF
the Lakes. We feel convinced that the de-.
rcnsiye line of Cincinnati is upon the Ohio
river. If that city can give facility to the
eastward and westward flow Of the great
commerce of the Ohio-if she can make that
commerce bug the Ohio riverside will not
only check the advance of her rival, but soon
rapidly gain upon her. We do Rot believe
that the line to Chattanooga will help to put
a check upon her opponents, aud, as the
friend Of Cincinnati, we regret that she had
not first applied her great means in the di-
rection which was the best for her. She
should have put on the water first where the
house was in greatest peril.
1t is in this light that we regret the OK.

of this morning | felt that we were friends.
would be glad to take you BY the hand, or,
for that matter, 10 put my arms around you,
so heartily do echo the sentiments you have
published under the above clpti0n.
Ium from the North, and we differ in poll
tics but when hear southern men OF po-
sition and Influence discuss the situation as
you discuss It am reioiced more than can
tell in the hope that the time is near
at hand when it may be said of all
the sections Of our common country,
as YOU eloquently say OF the minglng of
North and South at the Boston centennial,
.tThey have at last broken out Of the bonds
of bitter prejudces and maignities which
have surrounded them. They have broken
loose from ncharitabeness and blind bigot-
ries, and are free. Their hearts leap with joy,
and they thank heaven that they feel once
more for one another the sweet sentiments
of charity and brothery affection"
It is, indeed, ga great blessing to empty
the bottles of bitterness and ill them With
the fragrant oders of charity and gentle
ness"
Intercourse will do more for us than poll
tics. The masses of both sections are
friends-only they do not sufficiently know
1t. They are learning it, perhaps, in spite
of some who aspire to lead.
There is no prosperity which is not pros
perity for all. Our interests lie in the same
direction. Our happiness depends upon the
same results.
You have announced the true watch words,
Concord" "Amity," "Mutual respect "
Let the whole country but learn them, and
the work is done. And when done, what
sight shall the whole earth contain more
pleasing to heaven? What strength shall be
stronger than such union? What national
happiness firmer than such a brotherhood o.
