Correspondence. Concorp, N. H., June 6, 1853. Progress of the Leguslature—A Poetical Member— The New Consul to Melbowrne—Government Ap- pointments from Concord—Masonic Celebration om the 24th—Commencement of Summer Travel into New England—Distunces, §&¢.—The Crops— Horses for New York—Sporting at Chateaugay, Ce a Legislature adjourned over from Friday fore- noon until this (Monday) alternoon, In old times members used to come here ou the first Tuesday of », and stick by until its close, generally not more than eighteen, and seldom longer than twenty eight days. Now the sessions will | almost invariably exceed the latter duration. With | the exception of a few remote “ grants’ and “ looa- tions” in the north part of Coos county, nearly every | place in the State can be reached, from this citypby | railroad, in six or seven hours ut the farthest. Hence | members are fuin to turn their feces homewardatleast | oncea week. Saturdays anc Sundays find our city de- | prived of their angust presen: e—ad, jjournments from | Friday to Monday being comtoa—nay, more, almost | regular. The State constitution, it ls true, provides | that am, adjournment during the session shall not | continue for a longer time than two days. Now, by “two days” common people generally understand | that forty-eight hours are indicated, and, in their almplcity, may propound the inquiry, “ Do not seventy-four hours intervene between an adjourn- ment from one o'clock last Friday afternoon and three o'clock this Monday afternoon?” “ All very true,” reply the legal gentlemen in our General Court, “ but you must bear in mind that Sunday is dies non jurtdicus—that is to say, @ day about which lawyers know nothing—and if you contend that its deduction will not bring the adjournment down to two days, then we submit further that the law knows no parts of days.” Thus it is that his gatanic excellency is whipped round a stump, and seventy-four hours reduced down to forty-eight, by legislative arithmetic, in these latter days, in New Hampshire. Besides electing and qualifying the Governor, Coun- cillors, Senators and Doorkeepers, ordering the print- ing of 1,000 copies of the message, and 350 of a Legis- lative Directory, little other business was transacted by the Legislature last week. A sensation has, as yet, beem produced only in a single instance; and that ag be worth recording for the Hera.p, espe" cially some of your editorial corps, I believe, are mally disposed to cultivate the mases. , then, be it known that, in accordance with @ vote of the House, each member was requested to leave with the doorkeepers his name, place of resi- dence, employment, bourding house, and number of seat, i to the compilation and publication of the usual islative Directory. The member from Chesterfield, an agricultural town of note in Cheshire county, complied with the terms of the resolution as followeth :— J, C. Goodrieh is my name, From Cheaterfield I lately came; I plough the land both fine and deep, And fat good oxen—but nots sheep. ‘When drovers come, and beef ia high, Tf oash they've got they soon can duy; Tforedit’s poor and eash-they lack. I place my beef upom the “‘ track.” With lightming’s speed they unake their way, Where sath it hast whe vatehers pay; 7 And idle loafers, much in need, Upon their carcases soon do fed. Althe’ bullocks I've fattened. both white and red, Now by one ** Bulloek’’ 1am fed; The feed is good, the fare is nice— We soo shall fetch » market price. ‘Two and ceventy is my rest: Fer inconvenience it can’t be beat— With front so high and back so straight, "Tia very hard to legisiate Among the strangers in town, is James Madison Tarleton, of Alabama, the newly appointed consul at Melbourne, Australia. He is announced in some of the newspapers, as “formerly of Concord.” Mr. T. a natiye of Piermont, in the northern part of this Bate; came here and resided aslort time asa clerk nthe office, when sixteen years of age, and smigrated to Alabama, where he has remained for | ome twenty-five years. His age is about forty-two. | fen. Pierce never knew him as a citizen of this place, | put incidentally made his acquaintance while here | Jpon a visit, afew years ago. Mr. Tarleton isan | active business man, and a ‘“‘full-blooded”’ democrat. During the agitation of the slavery question, in 1851 and 1852, he ranged himself among the “ Union democrats” of the South, as most of the New Eng: land democrats did who were aware that in such a pe they could most eftectnally “lay low the foul nd” of abolitionism. Mr. Tarleton will leave for Mel- bourne in the latter part of July or first of August, | taking his lady with him. She was a native of Con- cord, a daughter of Francis N. Kk, Bsq., one of ogr most prominent and esteemed citizens. Lip. 0P0S—one would infer from’the New England | newspape.’® that nine out of { the appointments made in this Vic , under the the uew administra- | tion, were eithe,” “formerly,” or at present, “from | Concord.” Some o the abolition Mepipete have indus- triously circulated this 1"0T» ‘with & view, evident- | ly, to represent General Piv.¢° 98 guilty of favorit. ism among his own townsme.” , the trath is, that only one native of Concord has yev been appointed to ‘any office the duties of which av discharged out of oar city limits. I refer to Mr. k, L. Davis, who received the appointment of Inspector in the Boston Custom House. Gen. Peaslec, the new | Collector of that port, although residing bere for some past, is a native of Gilmanton. Hon. N. G. Upham, also one of our adopted citizens, who ‘has recently been appointed a Spe ial Commiesioner to London, isa native of Rochester. Gen. Pierce himself came here in 1937; he is a native of Hills- | borough. Asyethe has not appointed one of his | native townsmen to office. F The Masonic fraternity will celebrate the anniver- sary of St. John the Baptist in this city, on June 24. ‘An oration, poem, &c., will appear ou the programme. John Raymond, Esq., late of Troy, N. Y., where he | practised law for many years with Judge Willard, | will deliver the oration. Mr. R. now resides at his | native place in Ware, twelve miles from this city. He | is a gentleman of ability, and will doubtless do justice | to occasion, which promises to be attended by | the fraternity from abroad generally. Our citizens | will have the latch-string outside the door for the of all who may come. New Yorkers can leave home at 5 o'clock P. M., via Norwich and “Vorcester, reach here at 104 o’clock next morning, | ttend the exercises, take the 4} afternoon homeward | yain, and be in New York again at 6 o'clock the fol- wing morning. Last year the round trip could be rade for seven dollars. Distance from New York to | joncord about 260 miles.

Mr. BENNETT :— I have no doubt you desire to be correctly in- formed in relation to the proceedings of the late | Democratic State Convention, held in this town, on | the 9th inst., so far as they are of any impor” | tance to the public. The scope of your Concord correspondent's letter | (“Pennacook") would leave the impression that the | resolution of Mr. Burke, to which exception is taken by some, did not meet the approval of the com- | mittee which reported it to the convention. As modified, it did meet with the approbation of every | member of it, except one; and that committee was composed of some of the ablest and best democrats in the State. Many other democrats approved of the original resolution entire, and others wanted the _ word “ future’ only stricken out. Next, with regard to Mr. Ayre’s speech. The extract which your correspondent copies frem the | New Hampshire Patriot would give your readers | the impression that it was received with great ap- | plause by the whole convention. ‘his is untrue. I doubt whether it was approved by one-half of the convention. Certainly not one-half of the members manifested anything like approbation at the effusion | of the delegate from Manchester. And when the | vote was taken on the resolution of the same gentle- man, approving of all the acts of the administration, there was but very little feeling or enthusiasm mani _ fested on the occasion. Not one-third of the mem bers responded to its passage. ‘The fact was very apparent that while the mem- bers did not desire to condemn outright the adminis. tration of General Pierce, a majority of them did not approve of the appointment of so many free- soilers and coalitionists—not to say whigs—as have been appointed under the present administration. So far, the administration has effected no real union between the national democrats and freescilers in New England. It only more widely sown the seeds of discontent and estrangment between them; and, when a sufficient occasion shall occur, you will sce them again their se} ee one comenting fom ue rinciples of the compromise measures, an other for freeeoll and abolitioniam that is, "if the South stands by the national men of the North. If the pecnle the South desire to have free soilera, coali- jonists—and men even who voted for Charles Sumner for Senator in Congress—taken into the democratic church, and are willing to extend to them the right hand of fellowship, they need not look for many national democrats in the North, here- after, to hazard their political existence in defence of the uliar institutions of the South. With the South is its own destiny. If the South sustains the true men of the North, it will have friends here; if it does not, it will be left to fight the battle with abo- litionism in the best way it can. And whatever may be the result of that battle, the national men of the North will not allow the South to dissolve the Union, if it should happen to be discomfitted in the encoun- ter. We may rely pon it, that, although the demo- cracy of New Hampshire do not wish, at this early period, openly to censure the administration, they do not likeso much fellowship with quondam whigs, free soilers, and Massachusetts coalitionists, as the administration has exhibited; and, at heart, large nurabers of them approve of Mr. Burke's resolution, | which can be regarded only as a gentle hint, from which the members of the administration can profit much if they will. It is generally repor‘ed so here, although the editor of the Patriot, and others, from persona! motives, endeavor to give it a different in- retation. 't will, doubtless, be charged that Mr. Burke is a disappointed office seeker; but such, I am assured, is not the fact. He has not himself applied for office under Gen. Pierce, nor permitted others to present his name to the President for office of any kind. He has desired no office for himself. He has desired only that Gen. Pierce should conduct his administra- tion upon the principles on which he was elected— for his election. Nor is it true that Mr. Burke and the President are personally hostile, as you and | many others seem to believe. They have been per- sonally friends for many years, and are so now, | never having had any personal misunderstandiag | whatever, as I am informed. OMEGA. THE STATE CONVENTION—THE RESOLUTIONS. [10m the Congord (N. H.) Reporter, June 14 } But for the peculiar tone which has characterized the editorial arcicies of the Patrist, for the last ew months, | we should have been greatly surprised aud astoaished by | the article which appeared fa the last Friday’s datly, upon | the doings of the Democratic State Convention—ita de- | nunciaticn of the President, and some of the officers of | that convention, and the highly respectable committee | upon zesclations. That committee, with a single excep tion, az eed 10 the resolutions as reported, and the indi. | vidual exee pting (Pr. Smith, of Dover) was willing they should be reporied for the action of the convention. No objection seeras to have been raised in the convention to | any cf the resolutions excepting to the fifth, which was in the-e words. | Resolved, That we encourace ourselves with the belief t! | our distinguished fellow-citi United Sta! which may arise in the progress of his administration. What the sensitive gentiewea ia the convention, or the editor of the Patriot, could discover in this to alarm their | fe — aha ected Jur! coucesled treason they supposed they had | uncer this harmless resolution, which was to blow up and annihilate the administration—we | have been wholly unable to discover | particle of even implied censure existicg in the resolution, unless the President had given to it point and pertinency by his own ucts. We grant that, had he overlooked, in | There could be 20 his appointments to office, the “Old Guard’’—the trae | friends of the country and the Union—the steady, cou. sistent democrats always tound at toe post of duty—and | made bis selections from the ranks of the whigs, the apo- | litionista, the eecessioniyts, those who “have for years | been arrayed against the democratie party aud the Union,” | then, indeed, the fifth resolution would have contained a | gentle admonition, that he ought not to do so. But do | the genilen who opposed the fifth resolution admit | tha! ec has done this? Do they not, in fact, by putting | the construction which they did upon that resolution, | become his only accusers? And do they ice! quite suro that the President will thank them for putting themselves | and bira in such an attitude? If the 4fth resolution was objectionable on the ground of implied eensure for such @ reason then how much ore objectionab.e must have been the fourth resolu tien’ If the fifth contained but s gentle admonition, What @ eoathing re} is contained in the fourth, whieh | P | | declares that “ the Baltimore platform cannot de regard- ed as @ compromise of principles, nor an amuesty to fac- | tions that have for years been arrayed against the demo: | cratic party and the Union?’’ In our view there was not one word objectionable con- tained in the whole series of resolutions as presented by the committee. They but ably and eloquently reaffirme’ the cardinal doctrines of the democratic party, expressiog | a hope and contident belief that the President, in making his v ointments res acministering om [heigl | 1d be governed by them, approving the principles o ter + Fie reve f the Inst Baltimore Convention; reiterating attachment io the eon. stitution and Union, and hostility to all parties and move- | fnouts baving a tendency to weaken the fidelity of any portion of the people to those great sa‘eguards of our rights and liberties. ‘he charge preferred by the Patriot against the gentle- men composing the committee which reported the resola- tions is a serious one. They are charged with ‘a delibe- rate attempt to cast censure upon the President, and con- demn his administration’ —of making ‘' s pablic attempt to induce the democracy of New Bampabgre to comdemn the administration of General Pierce.’ ‘Aud who are the men thus boldly and reekleesly charged with treachery to the Pre-ident and treasen to the demo- cratic party? Why, such men as Edmand Burke, ocenpy- ing the highly honorable post of President of the State Convention, by the uvanimous voice of the delegetes, and till higher place in the confidence of the democracy of New Hampshire, whom he has so long and xo faitnfully served, Hon Lyman B Walker, lately the secomplisbed | and eloquent Atiorner-Geveral of the Stai¢; Hon. Uri Lame aucillor for Kock- | prey. the staunch anc! uneompromining. ingham district; F. R. Chase, one of the Secretaries of the | State Convention, and a prominent member of the House; | N. B. Felton, of Haverkill, one of the isading democrats of the Legislature, and ot! like them—men who have been in harness, figuting le battles of de moeracy all their lives, and not one of whom was ever vefore accused of treachery or a want of fidelity to democratic priacipiey, They wre the very men, too, who did mors to procure tae nomination of Col. Baker ax a candidate for the guberna, torial chair, and whom the Patriot so profusely yet just- ly eulogises, than any others in tbe convention. Is he, too, to be denounced as holding friendly iotereourse with traltors, and for aiding and abetting treason to the de- mocratic cause? But why this wholessla denunciation so many Of the most able and patriotic democrats State?

MIS LANEOUS. We learn that the Rev. H. J. David, formerly Pro- fessor of Ancient Languages in Princeton college and distinguished for his acquirements in Oriental literature, has, for some time past, devoted his atten- tion to the subject of general history. The labors of this accomplished scholar have resulted in the pro- duction of a work of high interest, which will soon be published, and will be hailed asa valuable addition to historical literature.

Raliread In ee ATTICA AND ALLEGHANY VALLEY RATLROAD. The construction of a great line of railroads from St. Louis, Missouri, to Cincinnati and thence direct | to Pittsburg, Pa., from present indication, must soon be completed, and must be the base of all roads north of the Ohio river. The business of that road, and others centering at Pittsburg, will make that city the concentrating and radiating point of an immexse business from almost all directions, to and from Bal- timore, Philadelphia, New York city, Western and Central New York, Boston, and Canada, as well as the great West, Southwest, and Northwest. The road now in process of construction from Pittsburg, north- erly, in the neighborhood of the valley of the Allegha- ny river, to the North line of that State, at, or near Oban, in New York, is being rapidly pushed for- ward. This is called the Alleghany Valley Railroad, and in connection with the Attica and,Alleghany Val- ley Railroad, extending from that point to Attica, New York; there connecting with the New York central consolidated line of railroads, will form an entire chain of railroads from St. Louis through IIli- nois, Indiana, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, Central New York, to Boston, or by the wayof the Erie Rail- road to the city of New York. This will, of course, give to Western and North western products a choice of markets when arriving at Pittsburg. The Attica and Alleghany Valley road is now being pushed for- ward with vigor. The whole line is under contract. The first thirty miles from Attica south is definitel located, and is now covered with as many men teams as can work upon it. It will be roagy for iron by the first of October, and the directors intend to run the cars to Arcade (twenty-eight miles) by the first of December next, and to have the entire line completed and the cars running to the North line of Pennsylvania (seventy-two miles, and twenty miles further into the coal and pine regions of Pennsylva- nia) by firat of December, 1864. pediby that time it is hoped and expected that the from Pittsburg north to the same it will be completed which form a connected line from Pittsburg to New York and Boston, and by that time too, the same connection may be to and beyond St. Louis. The country from Attica, through the counties of pe romeng and Cattaraugus, to the North line of Pennsylvania, is one of the most productive sections of Western New York, is now under a good state of cultivation, and nearly the entire surface is susceptible of cultivation. Besides travel and the farming and other local productions, there are yet large quantities of valuable timber and stone along the line of the road, much wanted at the North, and which will bear transportation over and beyond this road at a good profit. Most of the lime now used in these two counties, and three more in P lvania, comes from the North and must hereafter be ht over this road. But the it object of this Attica and Alleghany Valley d, and from which its great business and profits are to be derived is to penetrate the coal, iron, and pine sections of North- western Pennsylvania, and to supply Western New York and Canada with these articles, the two first of which are known to be inexhaustible there. The veins of coal are numerous and abundant, of easy ac- cess; bituminous, with a portion of canel. Immense quantities of valuable pine, oak, cherry, and other lumber, together with the coal and iron, are now pent apie for want of facilities for transportation, which find an outlet over this road and aready market. The directors and the persons best informed of the business that cannot fail to be done by this road when completed, are confident thatit cannot fail to be one of the best paying roads in the State. CONNECTION BETWEEN THR OHIO VALLEY AND THR SOUTHERN SEABOAR—REBUCTION OF DISTANCE. The Bap aryee project of connecting the Ohio Valley with the creat commercial cities of the South, is at present exciting great interest with the citizens of the cities of Louisville, Cincinnati. Charleston and | Savannah, and the intermediate points along the | route. There seems to be @ determination on the part of all to build the road, and but few intelligent men are to be found who have not confidence that it will be built in a short time. The object nowis to ascertain the shortest and most practicable route. The le of Knoxville have made every effort to induce the people of Kentucky, Ohio, South Caro- lina and Georgia to believe that the shortest and moat practicable route is by way of Knoxville. In this, they have not dealt candidly with those people —they have misrepresented facts in the case. To Ta via Knoxville makes the distance between Louisville, Ky., and Charleston and Savannah, about thirty-five or forty miles greater than it would be to cross East Tennessee west of that port: Instead of crossing the Cumberland mountain at the Gap, near Jacks- boro’, it should pass through what is known as Win- ter's Gap, thirteen miles west. This gap is on a di- rect line south from Somerset, Ky.,to the point on the Little Tennessee river, to which the Rabun Gap railroad will be compelled to ceme before it can possibly change its direction either towards Knox- ville or Chattanooga. This isthe route which Mr. | Calhoun favored, as being the most direct and prac- ticable that could be selected in extending the road from Charleston to Louisville and Cincinnati. The'editor of this paper, in company with Capt. Joseph Jaques, passed over this route as far as So- merset, Ky., within the last fifteen days. We return- edupon the Knoxville survey. We can speak from personal knowledge. It is our candid opinion that a railroad can be built from Somerset to Loudon for at least balf a million of dollars less money than from Somerset to Knoxville. The distance is less, and judging from the small fall in the water courses along the line, the grades will be easier by one hun dred per cent. ree Strange as it may aed at first sight, it is a fact, that Loudon is not only nearer Louisville and Cin- cinnati than Knoxville is, but it is also nearer to the cities of Charleston and Savannah. All who are ac- quainted with the geography of this part of the country know that an air line from Somerset,due south ‘to a junction with the Rabun Gap Railroad at the mouth of Telico, on the Little Tennessee river, in Monroe county, would cover Winter's Gap and Loudon. Neither would be a mile off a direct line. Having the advantage of all other routes in every respect—in distance, in light grades, and in practicability of constrnction—we have every prospect of securing the location of this Toad through Roane country. We already have one of the wealthiest counties in East Tennessee. Give usa Salida ert | the rich deposit of coal and ores imbedded in the mountains upon onr northern line, and we need want for nothing more. The great field of enterprise will be thrown open, and every interest we have eon) promoted. Un- der these circumstances, will not the people of Roane be willing to give a subscription of an amount that will be creditable to the liberality and public spirit of our county? So far as our enquiries have extend- ed, they are. We have not met with a dissenting voice. Let preparatory measures be taken, so that the next County Court, which now meets in a very - short time, may authorize a proposition to subscribe stock to this important road. While at 8 merset we learned that Pulaski county would take five hundred thousand dollars. On the South, Charleston is increasing her already liberal subscription to the Rabun Gap road, at almost every meeting of the city council. Savanmab aug Aucner, are looking to a connection with Rabun Gap road. via Athens, Georgia. The fire is Mi out al around us, and the time for doubts as to the proba- bilities of making these great connections has passed by—the matter is reduced to acertainty. Direct trade with Europe, and with ourselves, is the great | idea that seeks embodiment in the South, her great heart throbs to give it expression and form. The Memphis Convention is called to facilitate the mag- nilicent project. We intend to take this subject up again, andinthe meantime we i) hh attention to the route via Winter's Gap.—Loudon Free Press, May 27. a THE CONSOLIDATION MOVEMENT IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. The following is the substance of the resolutions adopted at the meeting of the Boston, Concord and Montreal Railroad, on the 30th ult. :— On motion of Hon. Zenas Clement, Resolved, That the principle on which the annual report bases the connection of this road with others is approved by this meeting, and shall be insisted on; also, that the consolidation of lines of railroads, under existing laws regulating their management, is unsafe for the public and dangerous to the interests of connecting roads; that this meeting Kerr epeoh of the con- solidation of the Manchester and Lawrence with the Concord, or that of any other lines through this State. HEMPFIELD RATLROAD. All the heavy sections of this road, between Wheel- ing and Washington, Pa., with only two exceptions, are now under contract. Some of the Lon sections east of Washington, including the tunnel through Brady's Hill, have also been let to able contractors. The company have obtained the Fs aha don aquare, at Wheeling, for a bed for which they pay the city $50,000 in stock. hey also purpose obtaining another depot, in the upper section of Wheeling, NORRISTOWN AND ALLENTOWN RAILROAD. The engineers are still engaged in surveying the route from Norristown to Allentown, and will close their lavors this week.

There seems to be but little doubt but that the proposition to subscribe to the stock of the Mississippi and Wabash Railroad is carried by a small majority. The result as to the Warsaw and Rockford road is more doubtful. ‘The vote is, how- ever, so close that nothing sort of the official returns can enable us to speak with certainty. MISCELLANEOUS. The engineers of the Susquehanna Railroad Com- pany are now engaged in making a survey of the route between Lewisburg and Williamsport, via Muncy, Pa. There was a great railroad celebration at Colum- bus, Georgia, on May 20th, to commemorate the union of the Central, Southwestern, Muscogee and Columbus Railways at that place. It was a grand affair. On the Ist of June, the citizens of Columbus are tocome to Savaunah for another celebration. The distance is 300 miles, whiah is performed in twelve hours. The railroad between Tuscumbia ane Decatur is to be completed in time to give a free pare excur- sion between those places on the 2d of June. A barbecue is to be given at the same time to celebrate the completion of this link in the Memphis and Charleston Railroad. The Southwestern Railroad, from Macminnville to the Kentucky line in the direction of Danville, has all been put under conrract. A contract in writing, under all the legal formali- ties, has been duly entered into and signed, between the directors of the Oakland and Ottawa Railroad of the one part, and a responsible company of east- ern capitalists, all of whom are well aud favorably known to the business and monied circles, to com- plete the road, furnish it with locomotives and cars, and build the necessary docking at Grand Haven, within two years aiter notice that eight hundred pond dollars of the stock has been subscribed for. The statistics of the Albany and Schenectady Railroad exhibit a fact that we believe to be without a parallel in the history of railroads in this country. During the last eleven ‘3 two millions, eight hun- dred and eighty-two thousand! four hun and Sty seven passengers have passed over that road, and not one, while in the cars, has even been injur- ed, and only two slightly injured while standing on the platform. TELEGRAPHIC. RAILROAD FROM PITTSBURG TO BRIDGEPORT. Prrmpure, June 18, 1853. The Grand Jury have recommended a + ubscription from Alleghany county of $150,000 to the Pittsburg and Cleve- yand Railroad. This, with the private subscriptions, which amount to $100,000, secures the making of the road from Pittsburg to Bridgeport, opposite Wheeling, on the Ohio river. City Ballroads Again. 10 THE EDITOR OF THE NEW YORK HERALD. Some apparently popularity-seeking penny-s liner, in a morning paper, estimating the profits made by the Sixth and Eighth Avenue Railroads, on carriage of 30,000 per- sons a day at $100,000 a year, inquires why, as ‘‘the profits are made off our citizens entirely by the use of the thoroughfares, the roads should not belong to the corporation, and the profits go towards diminishing the public taxes?” He ‘‘presumes the company pay into the city treasury only $1,600 a year. “Let us ‘presume’ this propounder of queries to be in the receipt of 6100,000 a year profits on a business, and ask if he can get that amount of net returns without the proportional investment in capital and labor. Probably not, if hia income comes honestly to his pocket. Admit that these companies do make $100,000 year. What bas preceded that income? An investment by one com- pany (the Sixth avenue) certainly of $750,000—money of citizens—put into the business as a eapital, and expend- ed in the buildiag and equipment of the road, and neces- pie! real estate, for prosecution of the busineas. Sup- posing the other road to involve s like investment, and what does the $100,000 of profit give but an interest of less than seven per cent per annum on the capital of citizens put to use in these roads. And put to use ina manper that furnishes unprecedented convenience and comfort to myriads of citizens. In return for this mode- rate interest, which no one charitably disposed would con:ider too large at 10 or even 15 instead of 7 per cent, this interest on the investments of some hundreds of citizens, let us see what the million of citizens derive from one, st least, of these companies. From statistical facts procured from the company organized under the general zail:oad law, and whose affairs are publicly re- ported aud exhibited, it appears that thie company (the Sixth avenve) is at the expense, for constantly cleaning and spriokliag streets, of some $8,000 per annum; for re- pairing, about $20,000. Fitteen thousand pa:sengers aday, laking the aforesaid querist’s own calculation for data, are about 5,500,000 a year. On this number the gain to citizens of 1% cents per passenger in fare less than omai- bus fare is $68,750. A license tax paid into the city trea- sury, not yet fixed, but say equal to that paid per omni- bus of $25 per car, on 100 cars to be run by these compa- nies, adds? $2,500. These sums show a positive gain to citizens of $°8,000 per apnum contributed by one of the two companies—giving $196,000 per annum by the two. Arather larger benefit than the $1,600 which fills the vision of the querist. While the few hundred citizens who own the roads get a moderate profit—not exceeding a fair rate of interest @ their capital—the great body of citizens and tax payers are gainers ina double rate of profit, to say nothing of comfort, saving of time, im provement in value of up town property, and a hundred points of ber.fit conferred by city railrouds. So much for the large profit amounting to simple in- terest, made off of citizens as a reward for the enter- prise that projected the energy that consummated, the capital that was risked, and the labor and talent that pro- papas business contributing to public comfort and interests. Respecting the corporation working the roads for the city, it might be sufficient to quote the maxim well proved by experience, that what can be done. by indivi- dual enterprise had best not be undertaken by govern- ments. If the activity, economy, unsleeping vigilunce to secure the favor of his customers, the public, practised by the individual mercbant or the firm, were practised at Washington in the public departments, it is well under- stood that one half the expense, in one hal! the time, would do double the work there performed. If under ex- isting company management ten per cent profit can be netted to the owners of ey railroads, it is pretty onr- tain that, under municipal direction, three per cent would not be left after officials had grabbed, contractors had levied, and the public had suffered a twelvemonth’s series of evils growing out of employes selected, not for business, but voting qualifications.

Negotiations for the wae of Muskets to Santa ma, [From the Freeman’s Jonrnal, June 18.) By private advices from New Orleans we learn that the steamer which left for Vera Cruz on the 1st instant, took out an agent from New York, whose object was to make a Largain with Santa Anna for the rale of the famous lot of Law-muskets, and to furnish other warlike materials, powder, &c. We further learn, that this gentleman was prepared to offer Santa Anna all he might want in that way for the equipment of an ot $100,000 men—the matter of payment or security for it, he (the agent) was to see about. His instructions were to be ac- commodating if there was good will in Santa Anna, and to close the bargain if there was anything sub- stantial tendered in payment or barter. The source from which we obtain this information is reliable. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. - MONBY MARKET. Saturpay, June 18—6 P.M. We have nothing new to report in the stock market.
