The demand fora change in our
system of working the public roads
is confined to no section of our coun-
ty. So far as we are advised, there
is not a dissenting voice in the mat
ter-thc method of securing what
they want seems to be the only OBJ
stacle that confronts us-and Mr.. 5.
w. Matthews, acting upon the sug-
gestion of Senator Blackstone, and
speaking not only for himself but for
the entire community in which he
lives, seems to furnish the way out of
the difficulty. He has rightly con-
Guided that the way to secure the
change desired, is not by folding our
arms and whining for it, but to take
steps to secure it. To that end he
has suggested, that delegates be Sc
lected from every section OF the
county next Saturday, to meet in
Convention, at Accomac G. H., the
following Wednesday, to formulate a
road law in accordance with their
needs ard their ability to meet the
burdens it imposes. 70 refuse to act
at once, as Mr.. Matthews has sug-
rested, is to defer the matter, per-
haps, indefinitely. The Legislature
will be in session only three months,
and there is no time for delay. Now,
our representatives have tine to hear
us and to consider our demands, but
later in the session matters OF graver
Importance will engage the attention
of that body and they could not. If
in earnest. therefore, in demanding q
better system of working our public
roads, let us act, not hastily, but at
once-and it being q matter in which
every tax payer in the county is in
terested. let us see to it, that repre-
sentative men from every section OF
the county are present at said meet
ing.

CRIMINAL EXPENSES.


The Governor refers to the annual
increase in the criminal expenses of
the State, and makes the following
recommendation to the Legislature:
t. Reduce the number of felonicus
offences.
2. Pay the attorneys for the Com
mnnwealth and other officers q fixed
salary. and apportion all criminal eX-
nenses between the State and coun-
ties, one-third to be paid by the State
and two-thirds by the counties.
3. Make the party who causes n
needless prosecution pay all the costs.
4. Make the superintendent of the
penitentiary send for all convicts.
5. That you eli large the jurisdiction
of the justices for the trial of misde-
meanors.

A dispatch from Richmond, Va, to
the BALTIC. Sun states that some OF the
Capitol officials think that an effort
will be made at this session of the
Legislature to largely increase the
appropriation fer pensions for dis
abled Confederate soldiers. That
made by the last Legislature was $50
0C0, exclusive OF the $4,000 for the
Confederate Soldiers Home. An
effort was made last year to put the
figures a5 :150,O00, but in the then
financial condition of the Common
wealth the advocate of the increase
was induced not TO press it. Should
the same effort be made at this ses-
sion it may be more successful. Vir-
ginia contributes more for her Con-
federate soldiers than any other State
in the South, with possibly one or
two exceptions. Under the Virginia
law the widow of y Confederate sold
Ter who volunteered from this State
is entitled to $50 per annun, provided
that she is not possessed of an income
OF over $500. nor personal property to
the value of 1000 or over.

coENTY RoADs.

In regard to the demand for the
improvement Of the county roads,
the Governor sees nothing practicable
for the Legislature to do but to allow
the board of supervisors, if the peo-
pie of the county wish it, and they
are elected by the people and are re-
sponsible to them, and should know
their best wishes and be governed by
them, to borrow money to improve
the roads OF their counties, but the
law should be carefully guarded so as
to prevent injudicious borrowing and
expenditures of money and unreason-
ably taxing the people to meet the
interest,-and in due time pay off the
principal. He advises that when the
order to raise money for the purpose
is made by the supervisors that an
appeal bc allowed to the Judge of the
county on the petition OF twenty-five
freehoiders, and tllat he shall have
the power to restrain the supervisor
in whole or in part from further pro
ceediDgs in this behalf, if in his iudg-
ment the expenditure is unwise-o or
unwarranted by the demand for the
improvement Of the roads.

TIE RAILROADS.

No complaint has been made to me
officially against the railroads of the
State. Yet | hear that complaints
exist against some of the railroads
for improper determinations against
certain localities and against certain
articles of trans portation. l have also
heard that there are complaints that
the roads were run on such schedules
as to prejudice certain localities, de-
stroying by unjust rates advantages
which nature has given, inconve-
niencing the people and injuring
their business. Connecting lines
should be required to make close con-
nections as practicable, for the con-
venience of the travelling public and
reasonable freight rates should be re-
quired, andno advantage allowed for
nfreight, or that from other States,
over our own. These things should
be investigated, land if they prove true
steps should be at once taken to rem
edy the wrongs complained of. We
should not forget that the Virginia

The suggestions made by him will

topics treated, especially, railroads,
criminal expenses, county roaGs and
separate ears for white and colored
people on the railroad, call for care

iicn on the part OF the members of
