Another Western Connection.

The GaIlipolis Bulletin OF the l9th instant
says;
"Geueral ". G. Wickham. vice-presldent
~ the Cbesapeake and Ohio Railway Com
nany. ard Mr.. NJ. A. Miller, connected with
the road as land agent, accompanied Dg J'
T. BOWER. Esq., OF Winfield, w. va,
were in the city last Friday, having come
from the mouth OF Sclry down the Kama
VIVA In search OF the best route for con-
npction OF the Chesapeake and Ohio railway
with the Ohio and West Virginia at TINS
noint. The distance from Scary 10 tnls
noint is ONLY from 40 TO 4j miles. Mr.. Miller
saws the grading Will be an easy Job, the
bridge building a matter OF small lmpor-
lance. and that the work can be completed
by January, 1882. The party met with but
little imposition regarding right OF way,
and il is likely that Will melt away when
the great advantages OF such q connection
are taken into consideration. General
Wickbam LETT here at once for Huntington.
Messrs. Miller and Bowyer started up the
Kanawha on Saturday and will see on their
Wav all the property-owners along the line
for the purpose OF procuring the right OF
way. One engineer has already been over
the route, and Others will be put on lnme'
diately."
Gallpolis is on the Ohio side Of the Ohio
river, about four miles below Point Plea
SAINT, which latter is at the mouth OF the
Kanswha river. 1t would seem from the
above that there are to be two roads leading
into Ohio from the K9nawha river. Gal
lpolis is really further south than Cincln-
natl; so that the new road will be on
more direct line to Cincinnati than is the
route by Huntington. This branch from
Scary to Gallipolis has often been suggested
and advocated in these columns. We
are not at all alarmed at the prospect OF
having large number OF new railroads.
.'The fittest will survive" Besides, there
is business enough for two roads, each hav-
ing double tracks leading from Richmond
to the Ohio river. The first winter that is
marked by an unusual number OF SHOWS in
PENNSYLVANIA and New York Will bring out
in high relief the advantages OF the Vir-
ginia lines between the seaboard and the
great Northwest.

THE VIRGINIA HISTORICAL SeCTE1I.-Per-
haps at no time in the history OF this Society
has such activity prevailed in its manage.
ment as we observe at present. Through
the great courtesy Of the WeStmOreland
Club the books and papers of the Society
have been securely lodged, and they have
since been properly arranged for reference.
All the material in manuscript should be
put in print; this assures its preservation
TO the historian. Mr.. CORCORAN has Just
added largely to it through the purchase be
made for the Society OF the splendid collec-
lion lately sold in London, and to which we
made reference yesterday. But the Society
is without income except through the dues
Of its members. That Virginans, in and
out Of the State, may have the opportunity
OF joining, the Executive Committee are
diligently at work sending out their circu-
lars, and ii is hoped these solicitations will
bear good fruit, The Society ought to num-
Der not less than thousand members TO bill
the full measure Of its usefulness.
