The recent election in Virginia
was won by the Readjusters and Re.

Repudiationists. They have elected
their entire. State ticket. and the
Legislature also; which under the
bargain with Malone, will elect a

ate from that State. The election is
a disgrace to the State. We hope the
honest people of Virginia, will at a
later day redeem the State from the
dishonest hands into which it has
now fallen. An editor Of a Southern
paper in commenting upon the cleo.
ton says, ironically:
Malone, we thank thee! Thou
hast done such deeds! Thou hast
wrought very miraclel Under thy
potent spell the Republican party OF
the United States in Senate Assem-.

his tongue, and inp0tently planning

revenge.
Apropos Of James, I am told by
those whe are around him, and who
intimately know him, that he is
really the greatest humbug who ever
spun fame for himself, or tried to
climb up in the world on the sus.
penders Of other men. They say, he
really knows nothing about business
or public affairs, and that, for all the
eclat he has gained in this Star Route
business, he is indebted to the
advice and to the work of an almost
unknown employe in the Post Office
Department.
1t is expected that all the mem.
bers of the present Cabinet will have
retired before the 18th of December,
but the work they have done for the
principles Of civil service reform
will live after them. The Secretary
of State has placed his son ia one Of
the highest and best paid places in
that Department. The Postmaster
General has made his son-in-law
Postmaster Of New York City; and
the Secretary Of the Navy has placed
three of his sons on the permanent
pay rolls of that Department. Pity
they must resign as it were, in the
morning of their administration,
when their usefulness TO their fami.
lies is just beginning to be felt.

successful termination to their nego-
tiations can hardly be uyerestimated.
They reached the city Saturday
night, and have been in consnlla-
tion till yesterday with a number Of
resident capitalists. Among those
who joined them here we're Messrs.
D. B. Sickles, of New York, a brother
of General Siekles, and A. W. Plai,
who were accompanied BY Mr.. james
L. Morris, mining engineer Of long
experience, who accompanies them
as an expert. They also were jnincd
BY Mr.. Vim. c. Maholm, OF Newark,
who is familiar with the territory for
which negotiations are pending, and
has examined it before with refer
ence to investments. Those gentlr.
men accompanied the English party
down the Ohio and West vngiuia
road yesterday, to inspect several
thousand acres Of iron land in the
comparatively unknown region along
that new line.
In the article of yesterday morn,
ing the names of several other New
ark parties, besides Mr.. Mahulm,
were associated in this project. 1t is
now understood that he only, with
the gentlemen representing the Lon
don parties, are interested in the
proposed purchase Of the property
referred to. The aim Of the foreign
capitalists is to secure as large an
area of productive mineral lands as
possible, provided the terms can be
satisfactorily arranged, and the init
nation is made that they may have
Interior designs connected with the
prospective expansion of the railway
system in the coal and iron region
contiguous 10 the Hooking Valley
road.
Col, sickles on yesterday made a
thorough examination of the coal
lands at Macarthur and other impor-
tant points, and portion of the par
ty which left with him Yesterday
morning proceeded to Athens, with
a view to further investigation Of
certain mineral lands in the north
ern part of that county, while the
remainder of the party spent the
day in the vicinity of Logan. To
day the gentlemen viii make trip
to Straitsville and Shawnee, and will
probably extend their tour Of inspec.
ton to the yet undeveloped region
below Moxahala, and up the Valley
of Sunday Creek, while Mr.. Maholm
will go directly to Toledo as previ-
ously stated, in order to investigate
the facilities of the roads leading
there for the delivery of coal at that
point.
A number of operators from down
the Valley were in the city ycster,
day, and expressed themselves pleas
ed with the turn affairs are taking
toward the further development Of
that region. They feel that their in
terests can only be fnrthered by the
realization of the scheme, and that
values will be enhanced rather than
deprecated.

Our FIXTURE.

The future for this town is bright.
Indications all point that way. AL
ready one railroad is being graded to
this point and will be finished,
equipped and in running order be-
tween this place and Charleston, by
early spring. Two other roads are
projected 10 this place, one Of
which the w. p. & c. Railroad will
most certainly be built, and that
in a very short time. The Rail
road Bridge across the Ohio has been
located ut this point, on 7th street,
and soon hundreds Of men will be at
work upon its construction in vari.
GUS capacities. The opening Of
spring will see an activity among
our people never before witnessed in
Point Pleasant, if plans now laid, do
not miscarry. With these grand i'm.
provements, it is hoped that our peo-
pie will keep pace. We expect to
see in very few years manufactu.
ring establishments springing up in
every quarter Of the town; fine build.
ings taking the place Of many of the
shells now in existence; stores conf.
ned to general stock now will be
supplanied by business houses carry.
ing particularlines Of goods; the gro
Ger dealing in groceries alone; the
dry goods merchant carrying dry.
goods alone, and so on in all the de.
partments of commercial business
Commencing with the spring of 1882
for the mechanic, artizan and la
borer, will be plenty of work al
good wages; and this will be the
beginning of new era in the histo.
ry and prosperity of this old town
which for more than hundred year;
has stood at about the same notch on
the stick, neither going ahead or go
ing back. While others are showing
willingness to help US, let US also
help ourselves.

Tunneling Under The English
Channel.

The experimental tunnel under The
English Channel, for connecting Eng
land and France, is making rapid
progress. 1t is only some seven feet
by nine feet in dimensions. In the
st. Gothard tunnel the advance has
been at the rate of less than one yard
a day; but in the channel tunnel,
with only chalk formations to con-
tend with and by means of an i'm
proved machine, progress is made at
the rate of fully a yard an hour. At
its deepest point the depth of water
in the channel is about 100 feet, and
the line of the tunnel is carried down
nearly 200 feet beneath the channel
bottom. The work has already pro-
crossed far enough TO show that the
undertaking is a feasible one, and
that the present experimental tun-
mel is susceptible Of enlargement to
dimensions ample enough for railway
purposes. The expense of such en-.
largement is estimated al 100000,
900. The line Of the proposed tun-
mel is about 20 miles long, and ofthis
distance more than one.tenth has al
ready been pierced BY the expert
mental tunnel and the rest can be
completed in about two wears. One
or two years more will be required to
enlarge it sufficiently to admit the
passage Of railway trains. The only
draw back on its construction is the
fear that it might be used by France
or Germany. in the event Of a war
between either of those powers and
great Britain, as q means Of invas.
ion, BY suddenly sending an expedi.
ton to seize the English mouth of
the tunnel, and then, before troops
could rally to re.ake it, introduce an
army large enough to overpower the
English. But this fear is more fan
,ciful than real, and will not, Of
course, be allowed to defeat the en-.
terprise, demanded as it is by the re-
quirements OF commerce and safe
transit.
