RAILWAY IN7 ELLIGENCE.

THE PACIFIC RAILROAD.—A prominent official
of the Union Pacific Railroad informs us that there
is good reason for the belief that the two com-
panies—now rivals, but soon to be co-operators
—the Union and Central Pacific Railroad Com-
panies, have come to a mutual agreement as to
the point where their respective lines of road
shall meet and unite. This will be at a point
one hundred miles west of the northern extre-
mity of Salt Lake. This disposes of much of
the rivalry of these companies, which has caused
unnecessary expenditure in the rapid construc-
tion of their respective lines ; and now that the
point for which so much extra expense was in-
curred and such unparalleled exertions put forward
to beat each other in the race across the Continent,
the two companies will work more leisurely and un-
derstandingly, knowing precisely how many miles
of road each has to complete. On the 4th of July
next it is intended to hold the grandest railroad
celebration ever undertaken on the Continent, or
in the world, at this point of meeting. The arrange-
ments will be on a scale of magnificence commen-
surate with the importance of the great event it is
intended to celebrate.—Chicago Republican.
The Massawippi Railroad, which is to fill the
gap between the terminus of the Passumpsic Rail-
road and the Grand Trunk, making a through and
all rail route to Quebec, has been put under con-
tract, and the cars will be running in July, 1870.
When open it will add greatly to the business
of the Connecticut Valley line, the distance to
Quebec being seventy mites shorter than by any
other route.

The Union Pacific Railroad Company are about
to lay out a town at the mouth of the Weber River,
75 miles east of Salt Lake City.

THE FIRST GIMENBACK.—Mr. Ellis, of Vine-
street, Philadelphia, bas in his possession the first green-
back issued by the Government. It is No. 1, A series,
signed in Chase's own hand, and is in a good state of pre-
servation. It was received the other day in payment for
goods by a merchant in this city, who presented it to Mr.
Ellis. Mr. Ellis Luis since refused $5O for it. Some curio-
sity collectors would pay a big price for the first green-
back, but there are those who would give much more to
see the last one. The "first greenback" is handsomely

framed.
A New York paper suggests as a means of paying
the national debt that every office-seeker pay a dcllar a
week towards its liquidation until he gets an office.
LADVEnnssmENT.l—Avoid Medicines: they always aggravate
chronic complaints: but Du Barry's delicious health-restoring
Revakenta Arabic°, Food, which yields three times the nourish-
ment of the best meat, saves 60 times its cost in other remedies,
and invariably restores perfect digestion, strong nerves, sound
lungs, healthy liver, pure blood, refreshing sleep, functional
regularity, and energy to the most disordered or enfeebled. We
extract a few out of 68,000 cures The Pope's health restored
by Du Barry's Food. Cure No. 68,413. "Rome, July 21, 1566.
—The health of the Holy Father is excellent, especially since,
abandoning all other remedies, he has confined himself entirely
to Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food. of which he consumes
a plateful at every meal. It has produced a surprisingly bene-
ficial effect on his health, and his Holiness cannot praise this excel
lent food too highly." From the "Gazette du 3lidi, July 25 Cure
No. 58,216, of the Marchioness de Brehan, of seven years' liver
complaint, wasting away, debility, nervousness, with a nervous
palpitation all over, bad digestion, constant sleeplessness, and
the most intolerable nervous agitation." Cure No. 1,771; Lord
Stuart do Decies, Lord Lieutenant of Waterford, of many years'
dyspepsia. No. 49,832: " Fifty years' indescribable agory from
dyspepsia, nervousness, asthma, cough, constipation, flatulency,
spasms, sickness, and vomidaz,.—Maria Joly."—Cure No.
43,270: Mr. James Roberts, of Frimley, Surrey, of 30 years'
diseased lungs, spitting of blood, liver derangement, and
partial deafness. Important Caution.—Beware of the many
unsavoury and more than sloppy imitations to which, without
authority, Baron Liebig's name is most audaciously attached.
