Our correspondent s. Aagn sanl opus S
a,iudes to d strong point the many recon-
mendations Of the Texts Pacific railway,
or, more properly, In the blishment OF .
trana-continental railway along fhc south
ern latitudinal line OF the Union. It Is tho
effect that would be wrought upon the vast
wastes tiati now lie upon and adjacent 70
the line apon which this road IS proieclea.
No line car, be run from east to west across re-
fbis continent which win traverse more
wealth, and q territory affording such fne
Geld for the employment OF human enter s'l
prize, as would the lite of this Southern
Pacific highway. That this vast waste 70 WIN
Sd unroiled into, Ststes, Increasing she
strength OF tho South immensely, must De
seen by all men. But then the addition
thus given to che. power. and dignity OF
the whole Union constitutes this work
one Of the grandest Of national projects that
ever. were conceived. To the South 1t Is
great in its sectional advantages-to the ma
ton It is great in all respects. The true
statesman and patriot cannot look upon II
without feeling glow OF delight. His an.
ticipations with regard to its inestimabiy
grand and bencfcent results will ill him
with enthusiasm.
This southern line is indispensable to pre-
serve the national equilibrium, andto main
tain the deiences as we'll as secure the de-
velopment Of the southern border. The
nation can by no other conceivable means
do so much to increase the national wealth
and the national power OF elf-protection.

OPPOSED TO BIENNIAL SEssIoSs.-The Le-
gislature OF Maine is considering the SUBJ
ject OF biennial sessions, and the papers OF
that State print Il letter from Mr.. Lewis B.
Hubbard, editor Of the Vermont Farmer. in
which he alludes to the experience OF Ver-
mont, and advises against the proposed
change. He says: .MG &c.,. ...E
First. You will get lower average stand
ard OF ability in your biennial than your
annual sessions. I shall net stop to dwell
upon this point. The fact is quite patent
with us for reasons which thinking men
Is Second. Very few old members are re
turned the second session. The American
peeuliarity-a hankering after ofice-is SO
great and powerful that it becomes mark
ed exception for man to be returned the
second time. I5heard this evil deplored in
a recent farmers meeting by the farmers
themselves and yetin 1878 they will elect
new men, as SO many wish to ego to glory"-
and shame, too, L; may add, in too many
cases. Consequently few schemlng law
yers or other. wire-pullers manipulate
things to their liking with much greater
ease A few; days since one OF our Vermont
farmers said in q public assembly-and he
was a witty member of the last Legislature
that dozen or so lawyers practically lead
as by string the 1876 farmers Of the body,
because they are "green" and not familiar
with the outs and ms Of legislative expe.
rience. rg~a1
Third. 1t Is poor economy. That was
used as, an argument when the State went
into it, but it was delusion, and the figures
used by scheming men did ellie" most
egregiously. The State will not save dol
lar practically.
!, Fourth. The average Of your Legislature
will be lower than now, for reasons above
enumerated, unless you are very much
wiser THAI we are in Vermont. tl..

Editors Richmond Dispatch: Receive
the assurance that many VirglnianS are
gratifed at the sound position you have
taken in recent editorials upon the subject
of the Texas Pacific railroad. That great
trans-continental highway from sea to sea,
whenever constructed, will bring its riches
within the portals OF Virginia from two OF
it's terminal points upon the Mississippi at
least il she can offer the requisite in
ducements. This can assuredly be counted
upon under the management OF amy COM
petenr mpany. II other localities can bid
higher for this trade, to them it will 60.
irrespective Of the sectional habitation Of
its presidents and directors; and Virginia
will be no worse off than she is now. But
your attention is called in this to another
view of this important enterprise, to which
has not been attached the magnitude or the
Significance it merits at the hands Of our
people; for beyond and outside OF mere
State limits the great southern problem
rises into eminence. BY that is meant
the opening, improving, and settlins-up OF
that vast belt OF country forming the south
ern section of the American continent,
wbich-so salubrious in climate, SO fertile
in soil, so rich in minerals" marks time !"
only in its march of progress for want OF
an increased population and an open mar
ket for its latent resources.
From this new extension to civilization
it requires no skill in prescience to foretell
that Territories growing rapidly into States
would knock for admission into the Union !;
that unimproved, uninha5ited wastes would
unrolI into Territories that Southern Cali
fornia, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas
will grow in closer fellowship; that Old
Mexico will become Americanized, and
tbroush her golden sands pour forth her
treasure; and that the voice Of the southern
States, with its augmentation of strength in
the national councils, will then indeed be
beard by her northern sisters saying: I
give YOU fraternity" but for it you shall
bestow upon me liberty and equality"

I, Messrs. Editors. Your paper OF satur-
fiav, contains a,s artsc;e signed !" One OF the
.PecpIe,s' In relation TO the Electoral Tribu-
nal, which presents the mftter in some
what different aspect from that in which
have regarded It, and which Induces me to
offer &c 5ne or two suggestions touching II,
and which I think are also "tWorth bearing
in r1ind.v EsE t4sz -
.seF cordially agree with One of@the Peo-
pie /" as to the value, Of the measure as an
instrument Of saving the country from war
and bloodshed. but / cannot, agree that the
fact OF its being "body picked out OF the
picked men OF, the land-honored from
among the most ,honored,"f = &C., is. with the
lights before. us, an incontroYertlbte guar.
artee that the decisions OF the tribunal Will
be beyond dispute on the side OF right, and
truth, and justice. NY idea Of the Commits
sion Is that it was appointed by Congress
not merely to decide ho,o certain SET OF
electors cast their votes, but whether nose
electors were rightluily chosen by the quail
| fed voters and such, j believe, was the
opinion Of the masses Of the people who so
eagerly approved the appointment OF the
Commission. ,f5s 'n5gi st.i -
II, however, and the /" masses" have
formed wrong conception OF the duties,
privileges, and powers OF the Commission
and DEVELOPMENTS so far have induced me
to fear that we haye-then can come to no
other conclusion than that the whole busl-
ness is most stupendous fraud surely, II
the Commission has not the power, and does
not feel It to be its duty to unearth, expose,
and overthrow fraud among the preslden-
tial electors, wherever it can be reached by
any kind OF evidence recognized by law,
but must confne its powers and duties
merely to affirming the decisions OF electo-
raj colleges whose ministerial acts nave
been in compliance with the forms OF law,
| it would be far better for the country II the
Commission had never met.
Certainly the American people will be
astounded to learn that q President OF the
United States can be elected by fraud, ana
that there is no power In the Congress OF
the United States to prevent such result
or to set it aside. Ii the charges OF whole
sale fraud brought by the Democratic party
against the Republican party are thoroughly
investigated and the result clearly ascer-
tanned, whether they be established or falsi-
fed, then, and not till then, will the people
be satisfied that full and thorough justice
has been done. ANY other decision, and
particularly one arrived Mt through the in
strumentality Of Iegal technicalities and
bubbles, will most assuredly greatly dis
satisfy more than one half OF the American
people. = u !, =" -4
livery much fear, Mcssrs. Editors, that
there, is too much OF disposition on the
part of the Commission to look more at the
forms OF law-the work Of fallible men like
themselves-than at the great principles OF
equity and Justice, and that their final deci-
sion will be one which will not leave even
the distinguished iurists among them alto
gether free from the suspicion OF partisan
bias. r...... r. y.
