THURSDAY .OCTOBBS ?, 187a gftjiroad Policy. ,,,1 , two kind* of i?HcyoD?i*> ro?d? which are intended to enrich their owners Of coarse ft is not to be presumed that any poUcy of corporations is Intended for anything etee. But," a* with one of the two policies above alluded to proceeds from narrow and contracted heads and hearts, and the other from liberal and comprehensive views. The narrow-gauge oollcvof men of narrow heads and grani t!ve hearts looks to the coming in every day of two cents for every one that is paid out, if possible. The instruction to the super, intendent of transportation is to assess the charges for transportation as high as it is possible to make them without stopping all transportation. He is charged to tax what goes over the road as though there could never be an increase In freight, and that the expenses and profits must be made out ot that never-to-be-increased freight. Ot course this system, hy restraining the in crease of freight, verifies the wisdom of the narrow-minded directors, and comforts and satisfies them of their wonderful forecast. There could l?e nothing more fallacious, nnd little that could be more injurious to the public welfare. It restrains both pro duction and transportation, and dwarfs the consequence, usefulness, and prosperity of every road In whose business it prevails. The opposite policy is- that of cul tivating and inviting freights? of lower ing the rates until, like a swelling volume of water, they lift up and bear off to mar ket everything that may be converted into money by being carried to market. This policy stimulates industry, developes the country, increases population, and swells the business and receipts of a railroad in a hundred ways. Take a single case : Say that upon a railroad there is a region of splendid timber or a mine of valuable ore. If the railroad puts the freight upon the timber or the ore down to a nominal price, that will induce men of enterprise to un dertake the working of the forest or the mine, and an active business is immediately established. Workmen and their families come into the locality? mills and forges are built?villages rise? and the railroad has a multiplication of passengers, increase of freights of every sort, and where it had not a dollar for either freight or passenger is in receipt of thousands. This illustrates the whole effect of a liberal policy : how it enriches railways, increases industry, and swells the general wealth and population of the State. This last is the policy of wise and liberal men. It is the true policy of humanity and sound judgment. Richmond has been a terrible sufferer from the narrow-minded and r-elfish policy. She is still a sufferer, and this day her trade is the sport and plaything of men who think alone and most unwisely of their in dividual interests, and hesitate not to sacri fice the welfare of this community if they deem that by doing so they can add a few dollars to their private fortunes. The trade that would come to this city is' repelled by the contracted and avaricious views of schemei s that do not see beyond their noses ; and thus is the natural course of commerce vexed and fretted, and the pub lic spirit of an enterprising people crippled and circumscribed. We have been much encouraged by the railroad games upon tbe chess-board of late, and do still trust that our hopes are not to be disappointed. Rich mond is in the happy situation Of fearing nothing that may be worse, and therefore is ready to welcome any change whatever. And what a sad management, indeed, is that of our own people, which prepares us to welcome any alteration of the course of our railway transportation ! Yes ; let it come. Anything that will up set the narrow and contracted policies ? anything that will relieve us from the sys tem of const rictioii and parsimony that al lows no growth, no increase, and detains V irginia in a condition stationary and de spondent, with no hope, no sunshine in the future. The Bayonet Spreading. The "instructions" which proceeded from the North are i eturning to plague the "inventors." Foul* thousand troops are sent to New York to see that the " free men" there do as the Government want them to do. *' Freemen" are " played out." " Freedmen " are the soul and spirit of this nation. That name is the major obligate to .which all national harmonv most now be subordinated. It is very plain here in the South that liberty is ended ; and it is but just that this information should become general.^ It is but just to the Government that those -ruled by it should understand its true nature, and respect it accordingly. It is but just that the measure meted out here should be dis tributed heaping to all partB of the Union. As at the Norths before the war, it was asserted that the Union could not exist hall slave and half free, so is it equally impossi ble after the war tbfct the Union can exist half slave and half free. , The sending by the Federal Government of some four or five regiments to the great ertcity In the Union to spy upon and sub due the people is a striking incident of the centralized power of that strong; Govern ment. That any portion of the people should be gratified by this manifestation is the repetition of the historical fact that the t people are ever betraying themselves and sacrificing their liberties for temporary personal or party benefits. It is also a re petition of the moral story of the selling of souls to the devil for temporal gratification. They who play the traitors will find too soon their folly. To-day one party may snfler and another may gain by calling in power to assist in controlling public opin ion to the advantage of those who support usurpation. To-morrow the gainers will be the losers, and the whole land may tind that through folly and depravity the most precious jewel ever possessed by a peo ple?personal liberty and freedom from the oppression of [?ower? - has been thrown away, not again to be recovered. Had such a movement as this of soldiers to overawe the people taken place thirty years ago, the people of the United States would have risen as one man, and such a storm as would have been then raised would have shaken the continent. The first step which opened the path fbrall that followed was the rejection of theeompro raise of '01 and the destruction of State rights by the placing of the bayonetoyer the South. The North prepared itself for conquest by rioting over the ?utyeetiojv$f the South and by continuing measure after peace Sot the humiliation andoppres sion of her people. The bayonet became the ' recognized agent for the purposes, of party as well as government, and the people acquiesce Is its use without murmur or irfgo, CUt is useless to talk about liberty in the foe* of these facts. Yet we cannot but feel gratified tiAt the bayonet is spreading itself. Sssnasgs, jjMI to koovr It ; audit i* furthermore wejj for peace and tl|i whcfe nation wwo assimilated wmm/ i ttimtry rate, and that it should not be half stetoe end haft . * .%? free* We cannot cease wondering, however, at what we see. The northern people are as simple as the ostrich with its head bidden in the sand and imagining that its body is secure. The heads of such a people must indeed be deluded and obscured. That which is done to secure Republicans In power to-day may he soon done to secure Another party in the offices, emoluments, and jwwer of the government, and that usurpation and that tyranny which overawe and disable a party to-day will assuredly enslave the whole natton at a day near at hand. - .. , ....... ? =: ?- r Contrary Working of Bad Measures. It is a little curious that under the bitter policy of Congress to "punish the rebel lion " it happens that the men who have been most objectionable to the "Union men/' so-called, should be endowed with capabilities not secured to persons less offensive. The fourteenth amendment im poses disabilities upon certain persons who had in office taken an oath to support the Constitution of the, United States and after wards rebelled against the Government. It furthermore authorizes Congress to re move them. Upon the removal of the dis-< abilities of such persons in the manner provided they are not required to take the iron-clad oath upon taking seats in Con gress. Now, then, persons who did not so dis qualify themselves by taking the oath to support the Constitution and then resisting the Federal Government, have no disabilities under the fourteenth amendment, and, of course, none to remove. Therefore, when such' persons are elected to Congress they must take the iron-clad oath, as adminis tered to every northern member of that body. Thus we see that an act intended to punish a peculiar class of southern men makes that class of all that were true to the South the only one eligible to seats in Con gress 1 Thus has vindictiveness over-reach ed itself and benefited those it hoped to hurt. What sort of Government have we ? Was there ever its parallel ? Mr. Hope's Lectube,? James Barbon Hope, Esq., of Norfolk, will lecture to morrow night in the Hail of the House of Delegates for the benefit of the sufferers by the late flood. Mr. Hope is so well known to our people that he needs no introduc tion. We can promise the public a ran? treat, for, notwithstanding the forbidding title of the lecture. Hope's genius will invest it with many a charm. Then, too, the public should crowd the hall for the sake of the sufferers. Remember how nobly Philadel phia, New York, Baltimore, and other places, acted last spring under circum stances somewhat similar. The Generals.? The telegram announc ing the designation of General Tebby to command the troops sent to overawe the STevv York voters, says that he was selected because the President distrusted General McDowell. The distrust Is creditable to General McDowell, who commands the New York district. We may Infer that he was not considered to be the man who would use his authority intrusively and harshly. It was no doubt apprehended that he might be restrained by some old notions, and by education under the usages of other days? that he might have a little too much re spect for the people. The Nortolk Virqinian finds the original of Fisk's " gone where the woodbine twineth" in Shakspe abb, as thus : " The Mid-Summer Night's Dream, Act IV, Scene I. they will find that Titania, when caressing Bottom, the Weaver, says : ??Sleep thon, and T will wind thee in my arms. Fairies be gone , and be awhile away. fco doth the woodbine, the Bweet honey- enckle Gently entioid^'' . Hope is good authority? none better; yet we can't think he is right this time. Mb. Daniel's Addbess.? We cau say of Mr. Daniel as Dr. Johnson said of Gold smith ? nihil tetiget, quodnon ornavit. Even a political address becomes, under his pen, entertaining. Bead the one in our columns to-day. The following very neat poetic missive was addressed by a lady of Kew York to a southern literary gentleman on the day of the reception of the news of General Lee's death in that city. Considering that the lady Is inclined to republicanism, and that her husband was an officer in the Federal army, her poem will be regarded with espe cial interest: I cannot check the faU-pulsed vein ..or string deaire to touch your haud ii! And wi He ittotyinpaihetlc wand Of triendelnp ; seek to soothe the pain i i koow Is teething up again WUhln your heart, as on tbat day WbenkalghUiest sword surrendered lay Upon Virginia's stricken plain ; For be, toost loved of southern land. With cbiefuin and with Christian fame, Who houestly to battle led A. gallant and heroic band, Which wp, p<M Imps unknowing, blame. Your nohle friend* Is dead ! Ours, too, the loss? who will galnnay ? Knowing how few the great souls born, W ht m fi Ittftd and loe alike may mourn, And cypress w 1 eat tis together lay Above life's desolated clay. Such rod is a benediction are, And lilt the Nation's heart alar Beyond rude passions which betray. Erring they may be -who Is not? Yet gird their swords for Truth's defence, Calmly accepting Fate's decree. O, that all griefs might be forgot. All foolish triumphs cease offence In mingled trara jor Lee. Strange Case of Suspended Animation. A strange case of suspended animation has just been developed In this city, making truth at -least as strange as fiction. A young girl, sixteen years old, named Ella Frerrer, a native of Virginia, died, to all appear ances, last Thursday, at iiampstend. King George county, Va., of typhoid fever. She was brought nere for interment in the Con gressional Cemetery, over a rough Virginia road, and when she arrived in this city, and the box was opened, a lady who was ttsJng her for the coffin noticed a flush to come over her face, and very unmistakable signs of respiration. The lady immediately be came greatly alarmed, a doctor was sent for, aud soon it became evident that the pooryoung girl had really life in her. The physicians, however, could do nothing for her, their aid arrived too late. Galvanic batteries were applied with remarkable results, the pulse and respiration being re stored for some time with feeble regularity, but the moment the artificial agent was removed the girl again lost all signs of ani mation. At last accounts she was undoubt edly dead. The time appointed for the funeral was 3 o'clock this afternoon, but of course, though the carriages and hearse were on hand* the sad ceremony was post poned. The case causes the greatest excite ment here.? New Fork Herald, A gentleman of this city recently received from Germany a Collection of twenty of the photographic heads of the leading com? manders of the Prussian army now in France. The photographs were confined to the heads, and np indication was given of the profession, position, or names of the parties represented. The whole of them were submitted to a noted phrenologist and physiognomist of this eity tor his judgment upon tnem? no hint being given htm con cerning them. After studying them for some time, he said, in repty to an Inquiry, that not. one of these persons wsjb posse wti of a military head or ; expressloo \~New York tribune* ' ; ' ISI&y'fU U I:"./- -?* .
