The RICHMOND AND ALLEGHANY RAIL-
RoAD.-The bill now pending before the
Legislature to change the old Richmond and
Lynchburg Straight-Shoot Railroad Com
pany into the Richmond and Allegheny is
very important bill.
A combination has been formed Of iron
and steel manufacturers and others with
persons interested in ore properties on
James river, and they ask n charter to build
from Richmond to the Allegheny noun
tains, providing for q connection with the
Buchanan and Clifton-Forge railroad at
Buchanan, and for two extension or branch
lines-one uia Creig's creek to the Ohio
river, and one via Jackson's river, to con-
meet with the Pittsburgh, Virginia and
Charleston railroads, now projected up the
Monongahela river, and forty miles Of which
has been built-the immediate connection
being OF course with the Chesapeake and
Ohio.
The parties say that il the charter is
granted without long delay they will imme-
diately make proposition to the canal COM
pany for its works above Lynchburg, and
to the cities of Richmond and Lynchburg
for small assistance; and that il it is ac-
cepted they will begin work Immediately
above Lynchburg, and between Richmond
and Lynchburg within two years. They
propose tirst-class road, with steel rail and
full equipment, and say that the road, il
built, will be controlled by men interested
in the iron trade and the development Of
mineral resources. They have had Il full
and very kind hearing before both COM
mittees.
The movement does not seem to antago-
nize any OF the other projects. The pro-
moters say that their principal object is not
to build railroad, but to get access to their
properties, and to get ores and to sell rail-
road supplies; that il anybody else Will
build a road quicker or better they will
stand aside, but il no one else builds they
will, if the charter is given them.
It is an encouraging thing to find men IN
these dstressful times seeking charter.
They don't come as they used to. The peo-
pie on the upper James are clamorous for
an outlet, and the people OF Richmond want
to be connected with them again. 1t is be.
lieyed that this project has great merit land
is entitled to favorable consideration. Ii
would be assuming grave responsibility to
refuse the hand OF helpers in this emer-
gencv or to make one less the chances OF
railroad for the next two years. They dom,
ask two million dollars from Richmond OF
anything like the half OF that sum. but only
small amount, which will be amply Sc
cured to the city. The scheme meets will
many friends, and it is hoped will be speed
ily reported to the two houses OF the Legis
latllre

MIR. PETER CooPER's LATEST PROJECT

IL.
A New York paper says:
Mr.. Peter Cooper has under consideration
plan for opening free institute for girls
in South Carolina, to be very much on the
same plan as the Cooper Institute in this city.
Nothing definite has been decided on be-
vond the selection of what will probably be
the site of the new institution. He said:
"I wish to do something for the South, and
show that northern man has some interest
in the welfare of the southern people. l
hope it may do something toward ending
old feuds and cementing the Union. l think
there is a good field for an institution there
that may be means Of doing good to the
country. 1t will be done il can see any
way OF putting it upon substantial footing.
1t would be school of science and art in
its application to all the useful and neces.
sary purposes Of life, and for ladies only"

DIR. De KOyen'S DeclinatiOn.

The New York World says of d.. De-
Koven's letter declining to accept the
assistant rec;orship Of Trinity church:
"The Episcopal church in this city, and
in New York society in general, have
reason to regret the unfavorable answer
which Dr. De Koven mas felt bound to
return to the call given to him to be-
come member of the staff of Trinity
church. The position is one which, III
point of dignity and influence, might
tempt any clergyman of the Episcopal
church, and DR.. De Koven's refusal of
it can only be attributed to the highest
motives; but his decision will be none
the less a disappointment to all mem
bers of his own communion and to all
New Workers outside of it who are
aware OF DR.. De Koven's eminent tai
ents and distinguished services to his
church and to Christianity"
