1t is expected that trains will be- running
over the road in three weeks from this time,
and that the road will eventually be extended
to Franklin G. II. This latter extension, how.
ever, is dependent on tho result OF vote to be
shortly taken by the citizens Of Franklin on the
proposition to subscribe $500, 900 to tho stock
of the road.
The cars for the new road arc being CON-
struotcd at tho Virginia Midland shops in this
city, and an engine therefor is expected to ar
live here about the 18th or Goth Of this month.
The work on this road has been pushed for

much credit is due to Major r. Il. Mason, su

COMMON WEALTH'S ATTORNEY.

A CARDIFF view Of the fact that the Con

arbitrary mode of procedure IN the pending

who profess to be the champions OF the party,
have no hesitancy in making this step.
The idea of compelling the payment OF
the capitation tax SO qualification for suffrage
Of the primary election, was one whose sosur-
dity alone excused its audacity; its foundation
rested on no law or reason, and the committee
did we'll to abandon it,
As to the colored vote, I think the last cleo.
ton, namely that which sent Messrs. Mushbach
and Hunter to the Legislature. should be the
criterion for judging of the colored mans con-
servstism.

States have adopted the plan Of recognizing the
republican party Of the Southern States and as
our cry of condemnation. for the last fourteen
years, has been that the colored man voted con-
trary TO his and our own good. now OF all tmes,
is the hour to take them into our ranks.
Twohundred colored men nobly supported our
banner in the last contest, and yet they arc ex.
