CHESAPEAKE A'1 OHIO IIAILROAI).
The progress of this through line of railway
from the Chconpenkc bay to the Ohio river con
tinues uninterrupted, and witliin a compara
tively short period of time another great iron
ehnin will unite tlte East and the West. Start
ing from Richmond, the present eastern termi
nus of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, the
line traverses a north westerly course to Gordons
vllle, tho junction with the Orange, Alexandria,
and Manaooas Railroad, 70 miles, thence south
westwardly 129 miles to Covltijjton, making 205
miles of the rond now in actual operation. In
addition to this, it is expected that 20 miles
more will bo completed carl next month, and
the cars running to the White Sulphur Springs.
Thus far every portion of the work has been
carefully guarded, and tho road Is one of tho
very best lu the United States. The country be
tween Richmond and Covington is exceedingly
rich in mineral and agricultural lands, as well as
In fine timber, and bids fair to become, at no
very remote period, a vast manufacturing re
gion; but the late war has impoverished many of
the families along the route, and prevented the
local trade of tho road from increasing with that
rapidity that would have marked its growth
under more favorable circumstances. As tho
case was, however, the reports of the company
for the pa t year, which we have been allowed
to examine, were highly encouraging, and
clearly exhibit tho importance of the prompt
completion of this line of railway lu the future
development of the whole country. Although the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Is a Southern lu
titutlon, it will play Its part lu tho vast trade
drama of tho nation, and prove of greater Inte
rest to the North than may uow bo imagined.
It will open up a mighty region stored with
wealth, and facilitate tho transportation of pas
sengers and freight to tho West through a
beautiful, interesting, and picturesque country,
over easier grades than any of Its rivals pos
sesses, while It will furnish another grand outlet
for tho extraordinary products of tho Westlto
the seaboard. In every aspect this new route Is
Important, and It Is gratifying to learn how
readily capitalists are taking hold of it for In
vestment. The trade of tho line from Richmond
to Covington during tho past year was quite
Satisfactory, and shows what the enormous re
sults of the trullic of this road will be when It Is
completed to the Ohio river. The receipts in
1608 were 524,339-20.
The travel of this season will be much larger
than last, and tho earnings, It is predicted, will
bo nearly double those of 1809. The extension'
to the White Sulphur Springs will greatly facili
tate pleasure-seekers aud Invalids In reaching
the Hot, White Sulphur, Rockbridge Bath,
Rockbridge Alum, Bath Alum, Red Sweet, Old
Sweet, the Healing, and Other celebrated springs
of Virginia, and build up a travel never before
known iu that famous portion of the Old Do
minion. By the completion of this link, pas
sengers leaving Philadelphia in tho midnight
train on the Philadelphia, Wilmington, and
Baltimore Railroad, reach the Hot, Healing,
and White Sulphur Springs lh time for supper
the next evening. The distance from this city
to Covington, via Baltimore, Washington, and
Gordonsville, is 393 miles, and from 15 to 25
miles further west nearly all the celebrated
Virginia springs are reached. Tho revenue
from passengers from October 1, 1807, to May
81, 1808, was 11 per cent, hsa than for tho cor
responding months of the previous year, while
'from June 1 to September 30, 1808, they were
17 per cent, more than for the corresponding
period of 1807.
The following table, taken from the report of
a distinguished engineer, will servo to illustrate
the advantage which the Chesapeake and Ohio
road will have over any railroad crossing the
Allegheny mountains. The Engineer says:
"To give a clear idea of tho rapid decrease of
the effective power of a locomotive as the grade
increases, the following tablo Is glveu showing
the net weight (In tons of two thousand pounds)
which can be drawn by a twenty-four ton engine
with eight drawing wheels, on different grades
from a level to one hundred aud twenty feet per
mile:

"Some idea may be formed of tho relative cost
of transportation over grades by a glance at this
table."
Whilst the Baltimore and Ohio road has seve
ral miles of 116 feet grade, this road has none
coming eastward, between Covington and tile
Ohio, over 294 feet to tho inilo, and only 10
miles of that grade. For 200 miles from tho
Ohio to the western base of the Allegheny there
Is no grade over 20 feet to the mile. Sixty per
cent, of the whole line Is straight; on the curved
portion the minimum radius Is 1000 feet, and of
this minimum there are only 2 miles, scarcely
one per cent, of the w hole distance.
The James River and Kanawha Cana', com
mencing at Rlchmoud, Is finished and in opera
tion to Buchanan, 47 miles below Covington,
and on this section a considerable amount of
work has been done. ' The present road follows
the waters of James river 14 miles. There is,
therefore, required only the completion of 33
miles of canal to perfect a line of transportation
from the Ohio river to Norfolk, via Richmond,
for such tonnage as requires the lowest rates of
charge.
From Richmond to the base of the Blue Ridge
tho country Is well adapted to the growth of
tobacco and all cereals, and contains a good deal
of valuable pine and oak timber. The counties
of Albemarle, Orange, aud Nelson, lying at tho
eastern base of the Blue Ridge, are admirably
adapted in soil aud climate for the grape and
fruits of all kinds, besides the staple crops above
mentioned.
When the road crosses tho Blue Ridge it enters
athe Shenandoah Valley, and Is tho outlet for
several of the finest counties of that valley, whose
staple productions are wheat, rye, corn, oats, hay,
beef cattle, hogs, and stock of all kinds. These
are the fruits of tho soil, but the mountains
.which bound this valley contain Inexhaustible
. quantities of limestone, manganese and Iron ore,
with an abundant sunulv of water-power. Fassr
Ing beyond this Iron district, the road enters the
rejtttm of mineral springs before referred to, In
numbers, variety, aud quality unsurpassed by
any In tho world for their established curative
properties. This district is Interspersed witii
rich valleys, and Is susceptible of being made
vol uaHe for sheep raising . ,
Passing Covington, on the Jackson river, and
crossing the Allegheny mountains, the road
enters another flue agricultural and grazlu
district, and on to the waters which flow into
the Ohio, H traces the valloys of the Greenbrier
and New rivers for many miles, aud of the Great
Kanawha uutil Its western terminus Is gaiued on
tho Ohio, The New river country is remarkable
for the great growth and variety of its timber.
The valley of the Great Kanawha is remark
utiin fnr fertility and mineral wealth Its soli
has cultivated corn for eighty years without In
termission and without the aid of manure, and
still yields abundantly. Below the surface Is an
Inexhaustible supply of salt water, from which
ore now made one and a half million bushels ol
salt per annum, while the adjacent Wilson cither
side are filled with cannel, splint, and bitumi
nous coal In great abundance and of the finest
quality. The coal depoaits lie horizontally, and
In veins varying from three feet to flfteon foot In
thickness. The splint coal Is free from sulphur,
and is most valuable for smelting purposes. Tho
relative position of coal and irou on this road Is
such thot coal may be carried east to tho iron, or
tho ore may be carried west to the coal, with
facUity.

j London, June 22. The Viceroy of Eypt

jbeen fitted up for his residence. A series of

The Star of to-day praises the United States
Government for consistency in taking mea
sures to prevent the departure of filibuster
ing parties for Cuba. It says the sanction of
the Attorney-General of the arrest of the
Cuban Jfluta in New York is satisfactory, and
the more vigorously the neutrality laws are
enforced at tho outset, the more easily will
the public mind be led in the right direction.
Sympathy for a nation struggling for freedom
is natural to Americans and Englishmen: but
the sooner the people are reminded that a
neutral country has duties to accomplish in
compatible with sending out privateers and
expeditions, the better.
Neutrality is not likely to exist, itnless tho
laws as they now stand are enforced, and
when tho laws nre insufficient they ought to
be amended. English lawyers and statesmen
may to their own advantage and instruction
watch the result of the proceedings insti
tuted in the United States, for the American
statute dealing with the subject is almost
identical with the English law. The case will
form a precedent and policy worth considera
tion and imitation.
. London, June 22. In tho House of Lords,

and after reviewing the work of tho session,
he expressed regret that the debates on the
tariff reform had failed to produce any defi
nite result; but he hoped for an ultimate
agreement of tho differing opinions. He
expressed his confidence that the session
would tend to fortify the bond of common in
stitutions between the German States. '
i Von Bismark, as Federal Chancellor, de
. a . 4 -a . ,m
clared that the Zollverein Parliament had
closed, whereupon the deputies of the South
German btates withdrew, and the King then
delivered his closing speech to the members
of the Keielisrauu lie complimented thetu
on their zeal and activity, but regretted their
failure to complete financial arrangements to
meet deficiencies of the budget. He referred
to the new naval port at Heppen as a monu
ment showing the energy and intelligence
with which for ' thirteen years the German
people had struggled against disorder to per
form a great national task. '.'
i The lively Interest taken by the peoplo on
the seaboard in the maritime developments of
the Confederation was a reassuring expres
sion of. the sentiments of the nation, which,
with increasing power, was penetrating all
parts of the fatherland; and this, in" connec
tion with the agreement and activity of the
Federal Government and the National Repre
sentatives for the welfare of the country,
fortified the confidence of Germany in the
maintenance of internal and external peace.
The Speeches were received with' cheers.

ir8iiT npi ANOS. It will be welcome news to the musL
cal public that Bteinways iiave succeeded, by the most
fliguntic improvements, iu raising the Upright Piano from
ts well knowYi state of imperfection to that of the most
perfect amongst the different shapes of pianos. The
Upright I'iano of Steinway & Sons now is more durable,
keeps better in tune and in order, has more power, a
pnrer and more musical tone, aud a bet tor touch than the
square pianu, and rivals in most of these points even the
Orund Piano. Its advantages are so plain and sinking
that the most prejudiced against this shape of a piano are
converted by examining tuein ; and out of twenty wno
want to buy a Square Piano, nineteen prefer now already
an Upright one of 8. A 8. Purchaser will do well to
examine them, at the wareroom of ASnTfl BRos.,
