STAMPED bi. L! 1 L WAY INTELLIGENCE. The directors of the Lee and New Haven Rail. road have electel C. O. Perkins of Becket, presi dent ; and Albat [lull, of New Boston, vice-presi• dent. The stockholders of the Vermont and Alas,,a chusetts Railroad Company, at a meeting in Boston on Saturday, Sept. 19, authorised the directors to, obtain a lease, limited, or perpetual of the Turner's Falls Branch Railroad Company's rights and pro perty and to proceed with the building of that road, if necessary, borrowing money for the purpose. George E. Towne of Fitchburg attempted to get through a resolution authorizing the directors to take $15,000 of the Mansfield and Framingham Railroad stock. But even the sum was reduced to to,ooa, the resolution was lost, the vote standing yeas 936, nays 1,302. It is stated that Mr. C. J. Brydges, of the Grand Trunk Road of Canada, has been appointed Inter colonial Railway Commissioner for the Province of Quebec ; Mr. A. Walsh, M.P. for Norfolk, for Ontario ; and the Hon. E. B. Chandler, a member of the Local Legislature, for New Brunswick. The appointment for Nova Scotia is not yet announced. In addition to the Hudson River Railroad, the Harlem Railroad track is being replaced by steel rails. The Hudson River road now use these as far up as Cold Spring, and soon will have them on the entire track. The Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company are relaying the curves of their road where the heaviest wear and tear occurs with steel rails. The rails are imported from Man chester, England. The Danville, Hazleton, and Wilkesbarre Rail road is being pushed forward. Many workmen are employed on its whole length. The road will com plete the chain of railroad reaching from New York to Chicago, about 67 miles nearer than the Allen town route. Its connections will be with the Philadelphia and Erie at Sunbury, Pennsylvania, and the Lehigh Valley at Hazleton. At the same time it will develope the Lehigh coal field along the Black Creek, known as the Buck Mountain Coal Field, about 16 miles of which, lying on the western and northern side of the Lehigh Coal Basin, will be brought into market. In 1830 there were 41 miles of railroad track completed in the United States. In 1810 the number had increased to 2,147 miles, in 1850 to 7,478 miles, and in 1860 to 28,771 miles. From 1860 to 1865 a period more favourable to the destruction than the construction of railroads 6,000 additional miles of track. were built. It is estimated that by the end of 1870 there will be 5J,000 miles of track in ruining order, that at the end of this year 40,000 miles will be completed, or ono mile for every 900 men, women, and children. The aggregate cost of these 40,000 miles built, and to be completed within the year, is estimated at $1,800,000,000, or at an average of $45,000 per mile. By way of comparison it is fAated that the cost of the 13,289 miles of railroad in Great Britain at the close of 1865 was no less than .£156,420,000, a sum half as large as the debt of that kingdom, and a full third larger than the cost of our own roads having a three-fold length.

Waterloo-bridge-road, S E. ~~ / /_'. --- ,-- -) LL L ~ G~7 i~ / 'AN ELEC7ION ADDRESS BY 711 E DEAN OF CARLISLE. (PROM A CORRESPONDENT.) THE Dean of CARLisLn has issued an election address. It is rather a novel incident for an eccle . siastical dignitary to do this. It is an incident con cerning whose decorum there may be more than one opinion. But the incident is a fact, and as Dr. CLOSE has chosen, as he says, to take part in this " strife of tongues," he must not expect exemption • from criticism. The Dean asks the electors of - Carlisle to support the Conservative candidate - entirely upon the Irish Church question. He con tends at the outset that though the English and Irish Churches differ on several points, they arc one body; but forgets to add that the " identity" and " unity" of which he speaks date from the year 1801. He concludes by declaring that if the property of the Irish Church is handed over to the Romanists, she will have to say with DAVID, "I paid them the things which I never took ;" but forgets to state that Mr. GLADSTONE has expressly declared that 113 has no such intention. Between this historical blunder at the beginning and this political blunder at the end there is a long argu ment full of logical blunders. There is one which we will take the liberty of exposing. Dean CLOSE says that " any nation without some such political recognition of some form of pure Biblical Christianity is, as a nation and in its national character, a nation without GOD." The Dean has, at least, " the courage of his convictions." It will be seen that not only is a nation " godless " which is without a State religion, but which is without the Dean's religion. On the one hand, the colonies are, as he affirms, " godless " because, though they have a Protestant Church, it is not established ; on the other, all Roman Catholic countries and Russia are "godless" because, though they have an Established Church, it is not Protestant. We must infer that he would compel the Australians to esta blish a State Church in their country, and he would have the POPE and the CZAR and the Spanish Government establish a Protestant Church, though Protestantism is not believed by an appreciable fraction of the population. The Dean is perfectly consistent, and he is one of the few men who would carry out their; convictions to the extremest conse quence. The principle which justifies the forcible establishment of a Protestant Church in the Roman Catholic Irish nation would equally justify the forcible establishment of the Protestant Church in Roman Catholic Spain and " orthodox " Russia. We admit this conclusion on the Dean's premise. But then we deny his premise. The premise is that a nation must be " godless " which has no Established" Church, and he does not shrink from saying that the United States, Canada, and Australia are, "as a nation," "godless" • Now, let it be clearly understood that the question at issue is not the advantage or disadvantage of a State Church, but simply whether a nation without one is also without GOD ; i.e., does not recognise GOD in its legislation. One would have thought that the answer to this question was to be found best in the statute-book. If we find there that a nation has been diligently en deavouring to ameliorate the condition of its poor, to protect a weaker class against a stronger, to make sacrifices either of power or of money on behalf of a principle which it believes to be right, then we should infer that such a nation was by no means "god less," whether it happened tohave a State Church ornot. Turning to our own statute-book, we find innumerable sanitary Acts, which the upper and middle classes have passed for the benefit of the lower; repeated Factory Acts, by which the operatives have been protected against the greed of the manu facturers ; we find that the English nation cheer fully paid twenty millions sterling to free her slaves, and cheerfully surrenacred her rule in the lonian Islands, and thereby diminished the number of her strong places in the Mediterranean, Decause the islanders called. upon her to withdraw. We do not deny th a t there have been some less s at is tr i m act on ction , gs,v • nalli y whiall I. erm pook with les Asia. Nevertheless, N t V h e at Co o l u ltk r l n e d that gislator on s h a t ‘ h , e e s xho e h v e lv i our legislation proves 1.11/VIIIMCIN CZt Luing w uucy 02ic aletates of justice and humanity. The other point in our argument is that all these praiseworthy acts have been committed since the nation became " godless." It may be news to Dean CLOSE, but the statement is not the less true, that England is already " godless" if the main tenance of a national religion be essential to national godliness. As Dean ALFORD has shewn most admirably in the Contem porary Review (which his brother Dean would do well to ponder), the State abandoned the principle of a national religion directly it admitted to office in a State a man who did not profess that religion. In Other words, directly a Dissenter was allowed to enter Parliament, or to hold the office of mayor, the State surren:'.ered all that :' - or which Dean CLOSE is so earnestly contending. Assuming Dean CLOSE'S premise, Sir ROBERT INGLIS and Mr. HENRY DRUMMOND were perfectly correct in their assertions. They declared that if the proposed " relief " were given, the State would no longer be a religious body. They would have con tinued to prostitute the sacraments in order to maintain the old condition of things. They cared so much forthe State, so little for the individual, thatthey would have supported the religiousness of the first at the cost of any amount of hypocrisy and sacrilege on the part of the second. It is quite true that we still have an Established Church; yet we have it not on the principle for which Dean CLOSE argues, but because it is thought expedient that out of the five hundred and odd different communions into which England is divided, the State should favour one. We do not say that this is not wise ; the wisdom or otherwise of the arrangement is not the question before us. We simply tell Dean CLOSE that if that nation is "godless" which has no State religion, he must at once re-enact all the penal laws against Nonconformists, and must forbid them to hold every public office, from that of Lord Chan cellor to that of pauper nurse. This work, in addi tion to the establishment of a Protestant Church in Russia and Spain, will require all the energies even of the energetic Dean of CARLISLE. I F we are not greatly mistaken we shall very speedily have some respectable quarrels on our hands. The Indian frontier difficulty, which was first announced in this journal, is becoming more serious every day. The New Zealand disturbances, though probably exaggerated by the correspondent of the Times, will require attention. And now we learn simultaneously that the Christian religion has been forbidden in Japan, and that serious outrages on missionaries have taken place at Wuchang, in China, calling for the immediate inter ference of the British Government. It is not sur prising that Orientals are little partial to the Christian religion. Their experience of it has been anything but pleasant. Sir JoHN BOWRING'S hymns and red-hot cannon bails at Canton were scarcely likely to make the Chinese partial to the new religion, even if the eagerness with which we Christians forced the opium traffic upon the country, to the ruin of the inhabitants, had not pre viously disgusted them with Christianity. The Taeping rebellion must have still further pre judiced the Celestials against our faith, for they could not be expected to distinguish between orthodox opium - smuggling, bom barding, English Christians, and heterodox rebellious, devastating, Taeping Christians. Japan, doubtless, has taken warning from the example of China, and being threatened with a civil war like that which has for more than ten years devastated the Celestial Empire, is now determined to put down at the outset the religion which, in the minds of Orientals, is, thanks to us Occidentals, associated with treason, rebellion, and rapine. Still, of course, we shall not allow Christian missionaries to be ill treated, nor submit to Christian residents in Japan being prohibited the use of their religion.
