on the railroad running directly South from Richmond, and thus effectually to cut off the supplies from the Southern States. If the Union troops are fortunate enough to secure its capture, it will put a stop to the inland coast navigation of North Carolina, which means of transportation has been so useful from its safty against hostile cruisels. The most important object of this seizure will, however, be the threatening of Norfolk, and, if it is thought advisable to follow up the advantages, the Currituck Sound, which opens into Albemarle. Currituck is about fifty miles long, ten miles wide, and is navigable for vessels drawing ten feet of water. Owing to the natural breakwater which protects a large portion of the coasts of North Carolina and Virginia, the water is as placid as a lake and easily navigated. It has been fortified by the rebels, who have established an entrenched camp in the centre, and erected five forts to defend it at important points. The rebel Gar

for the hardskip? Deal with this matter practically and with common tense, How much surplus grain was raised last year in Virginia? How much raised in North Carolina? In the tide-water portion of the State there are to-day 200,000 months to feed more than the resident population, besides the immense number of horses. In some counties the enemy have large armies, with their trains, which consume everything within their reach. That portion of North Carolina composing about twelve counties, and producing most of the grain used by the Eastern counties of Virginia, is now cut off from us by the fall of Boanoke Island, and the possession of Pamlico Sound, by Burnside's fleet. The consumption of grain in North Carolina for whiskey was so great, also, that the press predicts corn will be Worth $5 Per Bushel in the Summer, unless the distilleries are suppressed. Wake up, gentlemen of the Legislature. To you has been confided the interests of this great Commonwealth, and le

Latest from Roanoke Burnside reinforced — the attack on Elizabeth city--Commodore Lynoh arrived at Norfolk, &c. Norfolk, Feb. 12. --Five vessols left Old Point this morning, loaded with troops, and evidently bound South to reinforce Burnside in his operations against North Carolina. Elizabeth City was attacked on Monday forenoon by eleven Federal gunboats. Flag-Officer Lynch defended the city to the last. Three of the steamers under his command reached the Dismal Swamp Canal, and are safe. One of our steamers was burnt by order; of Com. Lynch, and two were captured by the Federals. During the engagement one of the enemy's gunboats was burnt. Com. Lynch, his officers and men, have reached Norfolk, and are safe. [Second Dispatch.] Norfolk, Feb. 12. --(Received at 10½ o'clock P.

not take immediate steps to complete the railroad between Keysville and Clarksville. It was a wise policy, doubtless, for the Confederate Government to pass a law for the extention of the Richmond and Danville Railroad to Greensboro', on the North Carolina Central Railroad. The importance of this link in our railroad system is undisputed. But it is a bran-new enterprise, the route itself not surveyed; the distance is fifty miles or more; the necessary expenditure is upwards of a million, and severe disasters that cutting us on main lines of intercommunication is the poncy which they specially cherish, could be possible that a lesson taught by so dear experience, shall prove of no utility and of no effect? The interests of North Carolina and Virginia especially, and yet scarcely less the interests of absolute Confederate States, cry alend in this present emergency for the immediate complection of this half finished road. It can be finished in a short time, at little expense,
