The New SOufir.

1t is 4 very pleasant relief 10 turn from
the excitement and contention of party
strife, which have so engrosscd the atten-
ton of the people of Virginia, for the past
few months, TO Il contemplation OF the
splendid possibilities which lie before the
people of the South in this industrial
epoch. Never in the history OF the nation
has the spirit of enterprise been so uni
versally active throughout the limits Of
the country, nor has labor, in all the ayo-
cations of life, been so surely and abuEd-
antly rewarded. In the avenues Of COM
mcrcc, science, mechanics and agricul-
ture, the steadiest energies and the best
intelccts ofihe people are busiiy engaged.
Railroads are being constructed, factories
and furnaces built, improvements erected,
farm industries extended and perfected,
and in every channel Of cndeavor broader
and more practical ideas invoked. 1t is
Just beginning to be known that the
South is the most Inviting field for capital
and enterprise to command remuneratlYc
rewards. Our genial climate, fertile soil,
commanding streams, and vast mineral
and agricultural resources open up fields
for every class of venture, with the as
surancc that well applied industry will
meet with rCcOmpensc surprising that
offered in any other portion OF the Union.
The vast railroad combinations which are
now checkcring and pcrmcaling the
Southern states and linking them with
the West and East, opening up markets
for reciprocal trade, are not only cnlarg-
ing the comprehension but awakening
the dormant capacities OF our people, is
well as cultiyatiug better feeling and
understanding between the various sec
tons of our common country.
Here in the Valley of Virginia, the
construction of the Shenandoah VALLEY
railroad has exposed more mineral wealth
than was ever known to exist in the
whole commonwealth. Capital is seeking
it and the day is not distant when the in
,lustrics, which grow out of the minerals
we possess, will be established where they
can be operated to the greater profit.
From one extreme Of the State to the
other, continuous iron belt is known 10
exist, along the route of this road, and as
an avenue TO market is now secured, the
means and appliances will be forthcoming
to convert this dormant wealth into active
values, diffusing their benefits through
every avenue of business. The Valley
road, now surely approaching compile
ton to Lexington, and the Richmond and
Allegheny railroad, penetrating and ac-
comnodating prolific and ailluent coun-
try, will expose still additional resources
20 those which have already been discOv-
cred and draw to them the necessary
agencies for their utilization. Developing
minerals, abundant harvcsts, and grow
inc wealth in every direction, and withal
the awakening of the people to the neces-
sity and importance Of material progress,
promise richly for our section.
A new South Is looking up. It's mar
vclous resources and surprising attrac-

RICHMOND, November 20.-Andrew j..
Mitchell was brutally murdered in Gooch-
land County last Friday evening by Alex
ander l.. Parrish. 1t seems that the two
men farmed conformity, Mitchell renting
a barn from Parrish in which to store his
crops. Parrish subsequently nailed up
this barn and detained Mitchell's crop of
corn for All alleged debt of $40. Mitchell,
who is poor, being in actual need of food
for his family, hired team to get his
corn from the barn to market. Upon ar
irving at the barn the driver of the team
was warned off by Parrish, who said lie
would shoot him as readily IS lie would
Mitchell. Soon afterward Mitchell came
up, and as he reached the door Of the
barn Parrish walked up from behind and,
without warning, shot Mitchell in the
back with shotgun, inficting wounds
from which he died in few moments.
Much excitement prevails in the neigh
borhooj at the unprovoked crime.

Moving fo.. a EsaIlrOad.-Thc peo-

pie of Salem, Va, arc taking steps to
hasten the extension of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad from Lexington, Va, to
Salem, and thence by an airline through
Franklin, Pittsylvania and Henry Conn-
ties, Virginia, into North Carolina, coh-
meeting with what is known as the Balti-
more and Danyillc connection with the
Gulf States. We long ago expressed the
opinion that the Shenandoah Valley Rail
road Company made Il great mistake III
making their connection with the Norfolk
and Western ut Roanoke instead of Salem.
At Salem they would have hal q far better
location for their depot, shops, &C., AMI
would have cut off the Baltimore and OHIO
Railroad from their contemplated extern
sion south through south side Virginia
and the CarolinaS.
The merchants of Salem now complain
that they have 10 pay As much freight
from Roanoke to Salem, 4 distance of five
miles, as they do from Baltimore to Ro-
auoke. Our people car sympathlze with
them, as they suffered for years the same
imposition without remedy until we got
another railroad outlet. Be of good cheer,
citizens of Salem. Time will remedy your
complaints. Hasten up the Baltimore and
Ohio extension. Competition between rail-
roads is the only remedy yet found for ex.
orbitant freight charges. In the mean-
time have your goods shipped to Roanoke
and haul them by wagon to Salem.

g:n-cusona blc.-Thcrc is great
complaint made by our citizens because
they cannot get supply of Cumberland
coal" and by inquiry we learn that the
reason why our coal dealers have not Il
supply pn hand is that the Shenandoah
Valley Railroad has recently raised the
rates of freight on them, charging Ia
cents "A hun,ir from Shenandoah june
lion 10 this place. and refuse to give any
through rates. At this rate Ii costs from
sl2 to Sl4 Il ear load from the junction to
this place, which adds one dollar ton TO
the prize of the coal. The company also
charge DIR wheat dealers 4 cents Il hun
dred on wheat from this place to the june
ton IL shipped to Mount Glare, but give
through rates if the wheat is shipped TO
Locust IOmt, Orange Grove, or Ellicott
City. Why this distinctions? 1t must be
from pure want of courtesy 10 the Bal
,imuie and Ohio Railroad. We learn that
the reason why our wheat dealers do not
ship over the Western Maryland is the
delay that they have experienced in get
ting their wheat Into market. As it is

to treat him with discourtesy, so 1t should
