JAMES RIvER.-We trust that our Virginia
representatives may succeed in inducing
Congress to make an appropriation to Low
er James river that will keep the work Of
deepening the channel steadily progressive.
The Government owes to this Improvement
liberal support. The strictly State-rights
policy of Virginia-the Democratic repre-
sentative of even this district opposing an
appropriation to James river-almost en-
tirelv excluded it from all help from the
General Government until after the war.
Other rivers not whit more entitled to
such help had hundreds of thousands Of
dollars voted to them. The commerce
Of the James eminently entities it to the
consideration of the Government. The
manner of deepening its channel now pur-
sued has proved most successful. The able
Federal engineer, Colonel CRAIGHlLL, now
having the improvement in charge, thinks
S25o,0OO sufficient to complete the work
begun, and suggests that 100000 may be
advantageously expended upon it the pres.
ent year. We hope this sum may be OBJ
tanned.

A TRUE BrLL,-We declare, and hold our
selves ready to maintain, that baser, Ylier,
meaner spirit was never visited by the con.
uueror upon the conquered in any civilized
country than that visited upon US by the
Republican party. We owe no exemption
from the lawful spectacles suggested by
Mr., Garfield to the clemency of the Repub-
lican leaders, who, having confscated our
property without discrimination, thirsted
for our blood. But we do owe to them ten
years OF persecution at Washington. and
despotism 10 the southern States, destroy
ing the prosperity OF whole gene
ration and taking post-obit upon the
credit and products OF the next. NO
thanks to them, infamous as they are, trail
tors alike to free government and their race
for such CLEANS Of leniency as have come to
us; but, in room of these, steady glow OF
malice, varied only by the glare Of corrup-
ton with which they have enriched and
amused themselves. Finally, when the Pre-
sident. whom by fraud and force they had
put into Office. quailed before the "awful
spectacles they had conlured up, they did
what they could to defeat his specific plans.
and have now identified themselves with
fresh crime in order that they may excite
the old spirit Of hate Courier Journal.

.1ameg-Riyer Valley Railroad.

When the Richmond and Allegheny rail-
way bill was passed we expressed gratifca-
ton at the fact, though we must say that
that bill is not entirely what we should like
il to be. It leayes the route from Richmond
to Lynchburg in rather doubtful conal-
ton. while that part OF the road between
Lynchburg and Clifton Forge is required
to be very rapidly built within year.
Nevertheless, that bill is passed. We I'M
derstood from its prominent patron-a warm
friend OF ours-that himself and the friends
associated with him were entirely willing
nav. desirous-that another bil-the James
River Valley Railroad bill -should also pass.
This bill has met the unanimous approval
of the improvement committees OF both the
Senate and the House, of Delegates, and
ought to pass without objection.
We repeat what we said formerly, that
this James-Riyer Valley railroad is sup
ported by several gentlemen OF both wealth
and influence, who are exceedingly anxious
to do what they can to develop the mineral
wealth and advance the prosperity of the
valley Of the James. They are interested
in doing so.
Now, the present session is the time for
the granting OF the charter. they ask for.
Two years will elapse after this session be-
fore the Legislature meets again, and with
the charter during that interval the road
might be built. .a
The canal, the only present means OF
transportation along the valley, has been
repaired chiefly out Of the State Treasury
with the penitentiary conyiets. Future
damages, that may occur at any time, will
require the same help for repairs. Unques-
tionably the means Of communication along
such valley and to such city as Rich
mond should be left to no uncertainty.
The Legislature should avail itself Of every
chance to rescue the interests Of the State
from this situation.
Money is not easily obtained to build
railroads. The corporators in the James
River Valley bill. we believe, are most
earnestly devoted to the objects Of the bill.
and they are certainly men Of means. They
should have the encouragement Of the LIE.
gislature. Their bill is unobiectionable,
and may be passed without delay. We hope
the Legislature will give 1t their attention
for the brief time that is required to pass it,.
