ga Son of Norfolk" referring to para
graph which appeared in the Dispatch re-
Gently, sets forth in the Landmark his theo-
~ as to the power of heGeneral Government
to acquire land within the States. We agree
with the "Son of Norfolk" that the fathers
OF the republic never dreamed Of giving to
that Government the power to take land
without the consent OF the owner and Of
the State; but inasmuch as that all-power-
full Government swallowed all the States
and abolished the State governments during
the last war, taking and using lands where
ever it chose so to do, and will do the same
thing again whenever it shall please to do
it, we think the Supreme Court OF the
United States merely recognized fact when
it declared that ''there is no question that
the United States may hold real property in
the State whenever needed for the use of
the Government in the execution Of its
powers, nor that in such case, IL it cannot
be acquired by voluntary arrangement with
the owners, it may be taken against their
will by the Government in the exercise OF
the power of eminent domain"

and Major John B. Stanard, who. having
been brought out as an independent candi-

name to be used in opposition 10 the Con-

to that effect, was, Notwithstanding, elected
by large majority, aud made Mayor IN

Culpeper. Mr.. johnson, in his bid, made
several suggestions as improvements to the

We understand that General 'Taliaferro
will get the entire vote Of the lower coun-
ties Of the Northern Neck, that he will di-
vide the vote OF Essex il he does not carry
the entire county, and will get the solid
vote OF the peninsula between the Kappa
hammock and the York. The Second con-
gressional district, it seems to be generally
conceded, will support him, as will also the
Eastern-Shore counties. In conversation
with prominent gentlemen Of King William
on Monday at court, we found that Talia-
ferro had a great many friends here, and

The questions chat have been presented
touching the Mississippi !etties will prob.
ably not be heard of again. The fact that
they are altogether successful is 80 entirely
established that no person will have the Inn,
spudence to dispute it. The only danger to
the ietties that now seems to be apprehend-
ed is that the channel may wear its bed
down below The mattresses, and that they
may slip into the channel and thus obstruct
it. This depends upon the length OF the
piles that were driven to keep the mattresses
in place, and the depth to which those
piles reach. II they are long and deep
enough, the undermining OF tho mattresses
would only drop them down deeper. AS
they sink in their BEDS other mattresses
could be placed above them, keeping up the
walls that contine the channel to their proper
level. OF course Colonel EADs and his as.
sistants have their attention fixed upon
these points. They know the depth OF the
piles, and will surely take steps to bolster
ND the jetties should there be any danger OF
the undermining Of Che piles already
driven. go {.
We have entire faith in the improvement,
and believe that the plan will continue to
maintain proper current for the exit OF
such maritime commerce as should exist
between the grand Mississippi and the
world. .s...-.,.s, /, .,s;r.st4. -.,,a, )
We see that the St. Louis aNobe-Derno era
is endeavorIng to spur up the businessmen
OF that city to do something that may enable
them to profit by the immense advantage OF
a depth OF twenty feet of water from he
Mississippi to the Gulf 1t will be deeper
than that Certainly 1t is great thing for
St. Louis that this outlet to sea has been
established. The transit by water from st.
Louis is the cheapest that can ever be.
That economical waterway OF unlimited
capacity intercepty the arts and tricks OF
railroads in their strategy OF concentration
and vexing the business and prospects OF
cities, and secures To st. Louis that facility
OF direct communication with foreign ports
that liberates her from the burthens and in
eonveniences OF other ways. She becomes
city of vastly increased power-one to be
respected and courted rather than CO.
creed by strategists and combinations.
St. Louis we regard as the most promising
city off of the seacoast in the United States.
She is proud ty-altogether worthy Of
her position upon the stream which we re-
gard as the noblest IN the world. Consid-
cred with reference to its magnitude and to
its beneficence to society-the vast good that
it confers upon mankind-the Mississippi
is indeed the grandest river in the world.
Such river should have channel to sea
deep enough for all the wants Of commerce.
We believe that EADs's jetties will give that
channel; and by all means should St. Louis
avail herself OF all its advantages. ..
