The RIVER RAILROAD.-If q railroad from
Clifton Forge to Richmond is to be made for
the low grade on the tow-path, and with the
necessary bridges crossing the river, how
shall it stand future freshetS, and what
would have been the damage to its line and
rolling-stock by the last flood? Ii the At
lantic, Mississippi and Ohio road lost on
James river (Which it merely crosses) over
100000, what you'd have been the loss of
a railroad down the river for 229 miles
Lucado's line Of boats was caught by the
food at Bent creek with 1000, 900 pounds Of
freight, and saved it all by the floating OF
his boats. What would have become of that
freight il it had been on train or in a
depot at that point during the flood? The
bridges Of the River railroad would take the
place OF the dams in crossing, and would
necessarily be low. The dams are all stand
ing, and all their bridges would have been
swept away by tue last MISUNDERSTANDING
Nel0S. ......-...
Our friend of the Neoos, while indeed not
indulging much his ruling spirit in his
paper, is so much inclined to Righteousness
that we suspect strongly the above para
graph. The questions are posers imagining
things adjusted, as the NepS states them
But suppose that both road and bridges be
built at elevations above the reach Of aoater
what then? And does our good friend sup.
pose that any sensible people are going to
build bridges or railroads beneath the
water-rlarks left by past freshets? The
freight of the future railroad will not bt
where Captain LuCADo's was, nor will the
l,r.loae ~ fbe f,f,Iro road be where those
at Lynchburg were. The short-sightec
incompetents Of times past have certainly
enlightened engineers and builders suffi
GENTLY to enable them to keep out Of th'
water. Ii, as would seem to be the idea o
our friend, we can't keep out OF the watel
by getting above it, why, let us keep dry b!
going under il.

Blaine and the Pacii5ation.

Poor BLAINE, on his way to get his nerves
and tendons soitened by little southern
warmth, vented his party bitterness in eX-
pressing his views to a St. Louis reporter.
Poor man, what a torture he must endure in
,subordinating anything that is genial in his
heart to his policy Of keeping up sectional
hate as the only way by which he hopes to
reach the presidency. If he never gets to
Heaven until he is President, Paradise is
shut forever from his vision. ..
He cannot give up his fears and sus-
picions OF the South. lie is inclined to put
little faith in the southern civilian; but
the man brought up to war. he cannot, so
BLAINE thinks, shuttle Of his hate OF the
North. What blind creature BLAINE is !!
The chief bitterness that is cherished in the
South is fostered by men who know nothing
of war whatever. They are elderly men,
who think OF liberty and law as they were
regarded in their young days, and never
can forget the wrongs inflicted upon them by
the North, N their estimation. The regular
soldiers, however, are the best reconstructed
men in the SOUTH. e., they obey orders,
and fight until tEfe orders are countermand-
ed. That being done, they are just as law
abiding and devoted to the national defence
as any in the North.
But BLAINE was compelled to doubt some
body. 1t was a political necessity, and so
these soldiers, being amongst all classes the
most defenceless at the present time, were
the most convenient and to him the safest
persons to denounce. So he declares his
distrust OF them, and, like the Irish tutor,
calls out to them, "Come here till bate
YOU some MORE" But his growls are the
growls of a toothless lion. BLAINE Is dead
man. The southern warmth Of the Arkan-
sas Hot Springs won't help him. We trust
they may restore the health, bot they cannot
change bis obstinate and ungrateful nature
Neither can they restore his political pros
poets. HAYEs's policy has put to death al
such bitter and malignant politicians as
BLAINE and CoNKLISG.

JOIN A. BINGHAM, oar Minister to Japan,
has sent to the Foreign Department his
tory OF Japan, written by sayan Of that
country. The Hon. John A., we imagine,
is much interested in things that have as
little to do as possible with his own country.
We have some most unpleasant reminis-
cences OF the honorable gentleman In con-
nection with the painful and long obstructed
effort to establish the political autonomy OF
Virginia. Mr. BINGHAM played most de-
ceitiul part on the subject, insornuch that q
member Of the " Committee OF Nine y being
informed one day that BINGHAM promised
to, give help on particular point, exclaimed
impatientiy, I" BINGHAMs q dog" y; aud this
gentleman was one OF the most polite and
decofolis we ever knew. BINGHAM, too, Is
followed by prediction that he does not
like much. TWAS that none who had part
IN hanging Mrs. suRRATT would ever come
I to- quiet, natural death. Thus FART looks
very much Ike fulalment. Z.
we shall see whether the missionto Japan
shall save B,sGHAM. s. 49,. s.5

GOVERNOR Remembering Governor
Kemper's administration, although the time
has been one Of distress and difficulty, there
have been few executive mistakes, and he
leaves the gubernatoral chair with clean
record. His manly and consistent course
in regard to State finance has commended
itself to all good men of every party. We
have always thought his veto Of the canal
bill was both mistake and misfortune !;
but we have no doubt OF his purity OF in
tention. Upon the whole, Governor Kemper
will 60 into history with little to his dis.
credit, and bold, consistent, and honest
administration in his favor.-Ctinch VaHey

The Financial Bills.


There is great panic amongst the gold
worshippers. They have been panic-strtcKeh
by the Washington reports. They have the
most extravaganza apprehensions. me Ne"
York Tr;bane, which is the GOULD organ Is
flaming with alarm.
EXACTLY, This is the way with the pre-
sumptucus and arrogant gold-worshIppcrs'
Silver and gold have by turns been pro-
duced in quantities that tended TO disturb
their relative value, and the self-compiacent
money-changcrs have, under the influence
Of these vicissitudes, at ore time wanted
silver and another time wanted gold to be
the standard OF value. Tie sensible and wise
ground was to trust to the control OF Proyl-
dence in the matter, assured that the provi-
dentiallaw OF production of precious metals,
although temporarily disturbed, would in the
long run assert itself and restore the proper
relation between silver and gold. In 1850
the worshippcrs were frightened to death
because California was producing SO much
gold, and now they are equally alarmed De
cause Colorado is on q silver rampage.
Therefore. the people who wanted TO re-
monetizc silver, which had without tue
consent OF the people, and BY trick which
should have hung the man that played 1t,
been demonetized, were denounced rs Sill
yer ]unaticS. The language OF vulgar de-
nunciation was exhausted by the worship
pers upon the silver people. Now, how
ever, it is all changed. Lamentations and
no NJ q
ridicule.
We are not surprised. But what is the
necessity OF all this? Had the narrow
minded blockheads OF gold-worshippers
been sensible and reasonable they would
have avoided the folly OF swinging with
the pendulum and settled upon the centre
line OF policy. They would have Joined
with the people upon the platform OF JUS
tice and good human practical sense. They
would have concurred in widening and
strengthening the specic-basis by a bi-me-
tallic foundation for the national currency,
and instead OF denouncing really the wisest
and most patriotic people in the country as
"silyer lnnatlcs !" would have assisted them
to maturcthe silver RECOMMENDATION bill, and.
uniting it as an auxiliary measure with the
resumption act, have carried through tri-
umphautly the best policy for the whole
country.
But these mariacs OF golden visionS-so
lately blinded with tic silver lining that
BIASED all they saw-had not wisdom
enough to ioresee their real interests and
the best way to pacifcate the country. A
wise law renonetizing silver at its proper
relative value with gold, and holding on to
the already appointed time OF resumption,
together with an act declaring that the Gov
eminent should receive its own paper in
payment of all OF its claims, would have re-
stored confidence and peace to the country
and brought about resumption even before
the appointed day.
It will be found before the day is gone
that all wisdom does not belong to the mar
and poory-informed upstairs
OF Wall street

THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY.-The rc6rgan-
ization OF the Conservatives in the General
Assembly under the leadership Of gentle
men like Messrs. Bocock, Echols, Coghill,
Hanger, Taiaferro. Anderson, Daniel, w.
II. F. Lee, aud Smith is the right thing at
the right time. The Simon-Puritans are
now set down IN their proper places as al
lies and abettors OF Radicalism. I" He who
is not for us is against w." and this decl-
sive action on the part OF genuine Conser.
natives may be understood to mean that
that eternal vigilance" which alone can
maintain Conservative principles will be no
longer abandoned. Secret caucuses and
Radical partnerships will now be faced by
the open and undisguised Conservatism
which despises mystery, hates wire-pulling,
and acknowledges no responsibility to the
Star Chamber. The people need not dread
the result. -FarmuiHe MercurY.

THE S1MoN-IMPUREs NOT IN THE SADDLE
ST. Andrew writes the Mercury from Rich.
mond thusly: Those who imagine that the
Simon-Pure rcadiusters are sweeping all
before them are vastly mistaken. The truth
is that while by Radical aid they expect to
be strong enough to distribute lot OF fat
Offices among themselves, they are making
no Roadway whatever in the definition OF q
policy. The leaders are in dilemma. III
they PROFOUND policy their organization
will at once drop to pieces, as they cannot
unite all the eontendng elements within
their secret caucuses. II they do not pro-
pound policy they know that the people
will hold them to strict account.

The gold-worshipper are now much
aroused at the idea that the silver lunatics
are bulldozing President HAYES. We know
well that the gold maniacs have been at
tempting to bulldoze the President. They
were foiled, and now they are dreadfully
scandalized that anybody should attempt to
bias the President by pretending to antici-
pate his views. We want the President to
do exactly what he thinks the best for all
people. What that may be we know not.
But we are inclined to think the President
will do exactly what he ought to do.

President HAYEs's Christmas visit to New
York is at the invitation Of the Union
League Club Of that city. There is some
discussion as to the feelings existing in the
League at this time ON the subject. The
invitation was given before the CoNKLrNa
war, andsthat may have curdled the milk
OF human kindness towards Mr.. HAYES in
the breasts Of some OF the members OF the
refined club-the Union League clubs were
all composed of most refined people! Mr..
HAYES, having accepted, goes, and we
rather think he will hold his ground.
