LYNCHBURG.
The Coupons and Public Sentiment.

lCorrespondence OF the Richmond Dispatchl
DECEMBER 3, 1856.
The city treasurer has discovered a
slight error IN the addition Of the figures
sent the Dispatch yesterday by which the
amount Of coupons rendered is reduced to
the extent Of $500, thus making the amount
OF such tenders $685. The patriotic
people OF Lynchburg are by no means
clated at the unenviable distinction that Is
likely to be accorded them OF being more
sordid or more subservient TO the interests
OF the bond.speculatOrs than those OF any
other city in the State in proportion to
population and taxable values. II is untor-
tunate for the present welfare OF the State
that large amounts OF property are held
here by men who are not only not " to the
manner born" but VINO are seemingly mt
terly Indifferent to who sinks so they
swim.
There is, however, brighter side to this
picture. il the hundreds OF small property
owners, and. indeed, many OF the larger
ones, are considered, who, ignoring selfish
considerations, marched up to the trea.

their taxes in current funds, and this, too,

who turned deaf ear to The tcmDter in
the person Of the bond.speculitors' agent,
whose industry IN efforts to dispose OF con-
pons was worthy Of better cause.

The Big Suit.

New YORK, May 29.-In the $2,OOO,.
600 suit for damages brought by Re-
ceivers Farnsmort h, Of the Brokers
and Merchants Telegraph company
against the Western Union company,
Judge Lawrence yesterday decided at
the present stage of the proceedings
not to accept the testimony of the
Pennsylvania witnesses. The court
held that the receivers of the Bankers
and Merchanst company in the several
States where they were appointed held
the little to the company property in
their States. 1t is held to be governed
by the laws in such cases. Therefore
the cause for an action for trespass
arose in each and must be brought by
each receiver. He decided that Gen.
eral Farnsworth as receiver could only
bring an action for trespass in this
State. In consequence of the illness OF
juror the case was adjourned until
Tuesday next.

Organizing Themselves.

Boston, May 29.-The employees OF
the steam railroads running from Boss
ton, particularly the freight handlers,
have been quietly organizing thems
selves into local assemblies of knights
of Labor. This week a general move
was made in the direction of higher
wages all along the line, under the
counsel OF the Executive Board of
District No. 30, which caused letters
to be sent to all the large corporations.
These letters have been received with
courtesy. Notices have been recived
from several of the railroads that the
requests have been laid before the
Board of Directors af the respective
roads, and that when acted upon, the
Executive Board will be notified.
