Of the old stock of the company, two thirds had been lost; the remainder, taken at its true value, with fresh sums adventured by those that pleased, formed a new stock, which was to be managed by ten undertakers, five chosen out of adventurers remaining in England, and five out of the planters. The undertakers, receiving privileges in the fur trade and in transportation, assumed all engagements and charges, and after seven years, were to divide th

To the Working men. --Listen! Let us ask you a few practical questions: Who gives Messrs. Rham, Talbot. Archer and Anderson orders for machinery, and thus enables them to pay you your wages? The South--the Railroad Presidents, the Sugar Planters and Cotton Growers of the South. Where would you be, and where would the manufactures of Richmond be, without the patronage of the South? You, in this monetary crisis, would now be idle on the streets, and Richmond lose her position as the manufacturing city of the South. Do our manufacturers get any orders from the North? Why did the Lester Sewing Machine establishment locate itself in this Southern town? Above all, what will be the effect upon the minds of Southern men, in Louisiana, Georgia. Alabama, &c., when they see submissionists elected from a city whose very existence is dependent upon Southern traffic and Southern patronage? Ponder on these things, and you cannot fail to appreciate and act upon your honest convictions. An

The Tallahassee Floridian says that one thousand Maynard rilles and appendages with 50,000 ball cartridges and 180,000 primers, and 4,000 percussion muskets, have been received by the State. The rifles were purchased by the Governor in December last, and Quarter master General Archer has just returned from business connected with their delivery and receipt. Progress of Mr. Lincoln. In Cincinnati, Wednesday night, about half-past 8 o'clock, near two thousand of the German Free Working Men of the city marched in procession to the Burnet House, many of them bearing torches, and called upon the President elect.

We would all prefer "hearing the lark sing to hearing the mouse squeak," if I may be allowed to use the expression of the Black Douglas I do not think the enemy will ever be able to reach Richmond by this route. He certainly cannot, unless he force the passage up this river, and that will require a stronger force than any he has at his command. Some of Dr. Archer's baby-wakers, about which so much was said in the Legislature, will have a word to say on that point. They were intended for Uncle Sam, and the old gentleman can get the contents whenever he may please to call for them. We are all looking forward for decisive intelligence from Manassas Gap with great anxiety. Everything seems to indicate the approach of a great battle in that quarter. For my own part, I have no doubt about the result. I believe that our men have gone forth with t

en added to the list in our city, in the railroad car-spring manufactory, which recently commenced operations at the Tredegar Foundry. This manufactory makes those vulcanized India car-springs, which are so popular. It is needless to repeat what we have so often said of our iron foundries, steam and locomotive works, &c. Anderson & Co.'s rolling mills, railroad spike factory, (whose reputation is national, and which has supplied almost the entire South for years with spikes, as has the Archer foundry with railroad chairs,) their locomotive and steam engine works; Talbott's and Rham's extensive foundries, Pae & Sampson's do., Hunter & Co.'s foundry and steel works, and Jordan, Winn & Co.'s iron works. These, with others that might be named, constitute a manufacturing power in various departments of iron work, including all descriptions of railroad work, cannon and ball casting, &c., of which we may be justly proud. The times are now oppressive, and our manufactories are suff

The parties in their "talks" made no reference, as we understood, to anything they proposed to do themselves, the tenor of their information leading them to believe that all the arrangements necessary to accomplish their "freedom" would be perfected at the North. None of the negroes implicated belonged to Charles Rhodes, as stated yesterday. The following is a list of owners, names of negroes, and award of judgment in the case: Jim, slave of Samuel Harogrove, thirty-nine lashes; Phil, (Wm. Gray's,) thirty-nine; Warner and Leander, (Mrs. Clarke's,) thirty-nine each; Caroline, property of J. B. Vaughn, discharged; Martha and Lizzie, (same owner,) thirty-nine each; Armistead, (Mrs. Archer's,) discharged; George Howlett, (free,) thirty; Wilson Howlett, (free,) thirty-nine; Peter Howlett, (free,) twenty-five; Becky Howlett, Mink Howlett, and Sarah Howlett, (free,) discharged. A vigilant and efficient patrol has been operating in and around Manchester for several weeks past.
