RAIL ROAES.

The route from Wilmington to Peach Bottom on
the Susquehanna appears to offer at first view more
advantages to the former, than any other one pro-
posed, but it is said to be attended with almost IN
surmountable obstacles in the unevenness OF the
ground to which we may add, there is a bill now
before the Legislature of Pennsyvani for charter
to company to construct a Rail Road from Phla-
deIpha by Lancaster to Columbia, and tho the DIS
tance from Philadelphia to Columbia is nearly dou-
BILE that, between Wilmington and Peach Bottom, yet
as all or nearly all the produce which would des
cend the Susquehanna to Peach Bottom, would first
have 10 pass by Columbia, it is than probable,
it would there stop and take the Rail Road to Ph-
adelpha; instead of coming down to Peach Bot
tom, then transported on the Rail Road to Whining
ton, and there shipped TO Philadelphia
The proposal to go direct to Elkton with the con-
templated Rail Road, has also many objections.
lst. 1t would create a severe competition with
the Company who intend and will no doubt complete
one from New Castle to French Town.
end. 1t will approach so near the Chrlstana IN
several places distant from Wilmington, as to otter
great temptation to intersections, which might etiec-
tually divert the trade from Wilmington.
The only route, therefore, which appears to be
feasible, is the one from Wilmington to French
Town by way of Clarke's Corner; and offers the
following mentioned advantages over any other !,
especially ft be granted that one company CONSTRUCT

Mr., EVERETT'S SPEECH.

In relation TO the part of the speech, this day
published--we copy the following from the Boston
Courier.
Mr.. Everett has made most able argument in de-
fence of Mr. Adams and the administration, against
the charges to which they have been subjected dur
Ing the discussion on Mr. Chilton's resolutions. In
ceedlngs Of the government in respect to the pay OF
foreign ministers from It's first organization till the
present time and explained the whole mystery the
expenditure OF the contingent fund and the settle
ment Of certain accounts at the Treasury zUifhout
specifications about which there has been SO much
useless clamor. From the documents cited, it eve
dently appeared that Mr.. Adams had received less
for the same amount oil service, than Mr.. Pnkney
or Mr.. Monroe and that the ac.ouns of Mr. A.
were settled on the same principle were those
Of all other foreign ministers.
The n Y American, on this part of the speech,
-remarks--Two charges especial among the rest,
have been dwelt upon-the large sums received BY
MIR. Adams, in the various public stations he.has
filled, and the viler and lower SANDER of the billiard
table.
10 these two charges as we'll as to several others,
Mr. Everett took upon himself last week, in the able
speech he delivered on the retrenchment resolutions
to reply in detail and certainly no case was ever
more clearly made out, than that in each and every
particular of imputed wrong in these charges there
was nothing but sheer and unqualified fabrication.
We have to Gay given place to these portions OF the
speech, which long they are, we may call IN fair
ness upon those of readers who take an interest
in the reputation Of our public men, and all shoud
to peruse with attention.

Capt. Vandegrift was not entitled to be promoted

The old militia commissions were dead letter,

Thus it appears that the aledged inconsistency in
the Governor in appointing Major A. Naudain has
no better foundation than the Wilbank commission

mentioned.
The letter from Sussex, stating the number of
officers who are Jackson men in that Brigade, &c.

tanr other who have resigned. And there is no
truth in the assertion that they to those offices
by promotion only; for they were as the writer in
forms, with one exception. all original appointments.

of the Patriot, in which Mr. Johns, our present Rep

Of his friends. If Col. Clement had fit to
late, at the time, one half of what has been

have been passed over with but little notice. Mr..
Johns has sent some communications TO his friends

Ridgely and M'Lane, however, have flooded the
country with Jackson publications.. Mr.. Ridgely
has franked HUNDREDS of Duff Green's I alegraphs-

ed his Jackson missiyes, the name OF Daniel Smith

and friends of this honorable Senator!
And this same honorable Senator has franked, and
sent among us, AN infamous libel pretending to give
the biography of our excellent Presidential libel
so shameful-so false and degrading to its author,
that no honest Jackson will give it connenance.
Ifcompant is made of franking the manly, elegant,
and unanswerable address of Chapman johnson,
what shall we say of him who abuses his privilege
and insults the understanding Of our people, by send
ing among them papers and pamphlets aboundlng
with such notorious caumnies?
Will Mr.. Clement censure these Senators for
such conduct? Does he not know that these men,
and others of the same political stamp, have done
and are constantly doing these things If he knows
nothing of the kind he is very ignorant. If he does

resolution of Chiffon has been of the most ausp-

question.
Mr., Bartlett uttered speech this morning char
acterized by his usual shrewdness and good sense.
But the speech of Mr.. Wright of Ohio, for caustci-
ty and effect, excelled any thing of the kind that
have ever heard in Congress. He rode rough shod
over The entire opposition party-tak'ng each man
in detail. Upon Apocalypse smyth, lngham, and

he had closed. Kremer rose and read letter writ

MIR. SPEAKER STEVENSON.-When Mr..
Calhoun first took his seat in the Senate of the Uni
ted States, he destroyed the dignity and character of
that body, by permitting the members to introduce
personalities in debate and by not enforcing order.
Such the indignant feelings of the Legislature
of Virginia. that they refused to re-elect Mr. Ran
dolph, who had induged in that species of debate.
We should have supposed that Mr.. Stevenson,
the present Speaker of the House of Representa-
tives, would have profited by these things; but we
regret to see that, by not enforcing order, by toer
ating personalities, and by permitting the speakers
in the debate upon s'retrenchment" to wander from
the subject, and to introduce newspaper and other
publications, which had no possible connec ton with
the question, he has succeeded in making the Re-
preventative Hall an eecfioneering field, in which
the most vruent feelings are INDUCED, TO the dis
grace Of the nation This in the Speaker has
thrown from the Legislative Hall every thing like
business, and introduced spectacle degrading TO
the parties engaged, and shameful to the American
character Such state of things is the only bene-
fit which, so far, has resulted from the choice of
Jackson Speaker and if the American people to
Judge from this specimen, it is time that everyfrend
to our republican government should pause and re-
feet upon the consequences which must flow from
the elevation of the party which placed Mr. Steven
son where he is. his is subject upon which we
were unwilling to speak-upon which we bad deter
mined to remain sent but the events of yesterday
has compelled us 10 speak out. Let him. and those
who have drawn this from us, take all the conse-
quences: we have merely performed our duty.

TIE CoNGREss OF THE UNITED STATEs.-We
have taken occasion more than once, TO lament the
loss of character which such discussions as those
provoked by Mr.. Chilton's resolutions could not
fail to bring upon the House of Representatives g.
the closing scenes Of this discussion most lamenta-
bly, realise all our apprehensons. At 10 O'Clock
on Wednesday, night, the resolutions as amended
and modified, and SO amended and modified as TO
strip them of any peculiar applicability to the ex-
lstng administration, were unanimously adopted,
under circumstances of disorder and riot, (no other
word can express IT'D in the last degree disgrace
full.
The letter ,of our correspondent enters some
what into detail and discoses facts and conduct cal
culated to crimson the cheek of every American,
who feels as he ought for the honor Of his country.
We trust, however, that the papers at Washington,
or if not, that then the correspondents of distant
papers, will give the details OF these disgracefnl
scenes. There is no remedy for them, no security
against their recurrence, but in exposing them to
public Indignation. If in the House of Commons,
Or the House ofPeers, in England, such scenes were
to occur. an independent press would visit them
with its seyeres censure, while it would spread the
record of delinquency before all eyes. Shall it be
said that in this land, which is the chosen abode Of
Freedom, there is not the same yigor and indepen-
dence in the Press? We hope not.
