The Legislature doubtless met yesterday,
Notwithstanding the undetermined matter OF
its constitutional right to do SO. 1t is
possible, that it may so demean ITSELF
as not to call for unusual censure. and
invoke the charity of the public to a degree
that will overlook its questionable legality.

The Nationals, or Greenback party are
organizing more thoroughly through
representative men now in Washing
ton. They claim to have sixteen MEM
bers elected to the next Congress, who will
act INDEPENDENTLY of both the old parties,
and demand good share of the spoils, as
they will be athletic eyelt a..controlling influ-
ence in the organization Of the next House.
They have issued an address to the country,
and propose to create Central Committee
to remain in Washington during the session
Of Congress, for the purpose of watching
the interests of their party, and sending out
TO the people.

Potomac and Ohio Railroad.

Mr. Dulaney, editor of the Harrisonbllrg
Old Ha,risonbng, writes to his paper from
Philadelphia, under date of NOVEMBER IS.
as follows
am gratified to be able to announce that
within the past week over two hundred
miles of the Potomac and Ohio Railroad
has been put under contract. and that work
will be commenced on the first twenty
miles. from! Charleston, east through Ka-
nawha, within the next ten days, to be com.
pleted not later than October next. Work
will be commenced on other portions OF the
line at an early day and pushed as rapidly
as possible. AS previously announced in the
Commonwealth this Narrow Guage Railroad
is to extend from Charleston, on the Ka-
nawha, to Quantico on the Potomac river,
distance of 1926 miles, or more than eighty
miles shorter than any other route. The
route includes Harrisonburg, and the road
will develop the richest coal, mineral and
timber sections of West Virginia, the i'm
mense value OF which invests this enterprise
with special interests in Pennsylvania, and
endorses it as one OF the most profitable I'M
dertakings now on foot. The organizati on
controlling this work is now perfected on
permanent basis, and to a Harrisonburg
citizen belongs the credit. He has labored
lUil2 diltl faithfully UlIucI ulOSU OlSCOuTdp-
ing circumstances at times, we admit,
but the work has been consummated and
the parties interested are synonymous with
success. Unless some general and I'M
looked for stagnation overtakes the country,
we predict great changes for the better in
that section lying between the Blue Ridge
and the North Mountains within the next
three or four years. with an increase in pop
ulation that would sound incredible at this
time. There are, ] might say, hundreds
of furnaces in Pennsylvania now out of
blast, which viii remain so-hundreds of
millions invested, that must be sacrificed or
transported to the place where the iron ores,
Goals, and all the necessary adjuncts of iron
manufacture now lie undeveloped. Ores
are now being shipped from the James river
and Pittsylvania county to the interior of
this State. When ore, fuel and limestone
can be reached i'll close proximity, the fur
naces must be located there and the products
shipped to this MARKET, so that the Virginias
will become the producers for this great
market. 1t may be some time, perhaps five
years, before the full measure of this expec-
tation will be realized but 1t is bound to
come to pass. and sufficient verifcation of
the soundness of the prediction will cheer
us within much shorter period.

No higher testimony could be given to
the eminent craftsmanship which has d.
rected the administration of the govern
ment under Republican control, than the
announcement that there will be no attempt
this session to repeal the resumption act
1t is an admission that the financial policy
of the government is complete success-so
much so that it would be bad partizan pol
icy to seek to cripple it. When we remem
Der that almost every Democratic candidate
for Congress last month declared against
resumption and advocated the repeal of the
act providing for it, the conclusion now
reached that no formal effort will be made
to disturb that legislation, is a complete sur
render of Democratic professions and no
tons, and leaves that party at liberty to
hunt up something else out of which to
make show of national policy.
1t Is given out, and we have no doubt with
good reason, that the next move will be
against the national banks. If second
sober thought does not seize them and
change their idea, they will be as badly
damaged in such crusade as they have
been in their assault upon resumption. The
people have learned little within the past
six months about the finances and curren-
cy of the country and have not the remotest
thought of destroying the nationa. bank
currency, the safest and most convenient we
have ever had-to be supplied by the issues
of State banks.
The Democracy is in fact without a ma
tional principle or policy. What expedient
they will adopt or pretense formulate be-
tween now aud 1880, we cannot tell. What
ever it may be it will fall short of popular
demand and conviction, and show them in
1 splendid minority after the November
elections of that year.

MEXICO, Mo-, August 1.-THE
Greenbackers of this county were
addressed at the Courthouse to-day
by f. G.. Haley, a resident Of the
county. There was a large gathering of
both political parties, most of whom
attended out of mere curiosity. Mr..

in the judgement of our people.

about 10 years old and four horses

when the accident occurred.
