To BE D1scoNTINUED.-We understand that
in a few days the double daily trains on the
Virginia and Tennessee railroad will be dis
continued and only one train daily be run
over the road. This, we learn, is in conse-
quence of the refusal of the East Tennessee
and Georgia road longer to continue the
double daily trains on account of the light
travel. General Malone, we hear, is OPP
posed to this discontinuance, and presented
q very liberal proposition to the president OF
the connecting line at Bristol to secure the
continuance of these trains; which, we re-
greet to learn, was declined.-Lynchburg

MEXICAN RADs.--The Mexican Gov
eminent has stationed cavalry OF differ
ent points on the Rio Grande. for the
purpose of putting an end to the raids
made from that bank of the river. This
shows that President Lerdo and his
Cabinet are DESTROYS of doing something
to remove the Just cause of complaint
arising from these forays. That is well
as far as it goes, but in the United States
the public mind is getting very FESTIVE
under these constantly recurring raids,
and unless an end is speedily put to such
| disgraceiu condition of affairs, due
regard for the honor and dignity OF the
American people will compel the Gov
eminent of the United States to take the
matter in its own hands, and not only
repress these outrages and require In
demnity for the past, but also materla
guarantees against their recurrence il
the future.
