Subscription books for the Stock of Si0O,O0o oil
g The Paterson and Ramapo Railroad Company"
are to be opened on the Sd and 4th OF January, at
Paterson and at Jersey City.
The distance from Jersey City to Paterson by the
Paterson Railroad is I6i miles, and the Kanapo
Railroad is designed for connecting the Pat
erson road with the New York and Erie Railroad at
Suifren's Depot in the Ramapo-Gap.
1t is 10 miles from that Depot to Piennont by the
Erie Railroad and from thence TO this City, by
steamboats, IS miles making together A miles,
which is now travelled in about )! hours
The distance from Sulrcn's to Jersey City, by the
proposed Ramapo and the present Paterson, Rail
roads will not exceed 80 miles and it will easily be
passed over in /! hours, or less.
The route from Paterson to Sutrcn's quite level,
and those who have examined the matter confident
ly believe and represent that this road can be con
structcd for $250,O00.
From Sulren's to Goshen by the Erie Road n%
miles, and from Goshen to Albany, by u proposed
Railroad, which is said to be very practicable, twill
be 81 miles thus making the distance from Albany;
to Jersey City, l52 miles, by continuous line Of
Railroads. The Albany and Goshen road will pass
through, or near to, all the principal towns North Of
Ncwburg, and in connection with the roads South
from Goshen, it will open direct line OF Railroad
communication with this City, available during all
seasons Of the year.
The entire route is plainly indicated upon the ac-
companying map; and it is hoped that the enter
prize of the Albanians will be exhibited by the
speedy completion of u Railroad from their City TO
Goshen.
A reconnaissance between those points, has been
carefully made by competent Engineers, who report
that railroad, with easy grades can be advantage
ousy located and constructed.
From reports OF the business, which is now beng
done upon the Erie Railroad, between Goshen ana
Piermont, it is judged that the advantages OF inc
proposed intersection at Sufrens, will make lhe
Paterson and Ramapo stock IN excellent investment
and it is evident that the Paterson Railroad, when Id
now very prosperous, and which must receive the
additional business of both, will at once be greauJ
enhanced in value but when the Albany and oo
shen Railroad is completed, and the Erie Road sha'
be extended Westward, the line from Goshen 10
Jersey City, will become the creates, thorou5hi"'
in the Union.
1t has been objected that the track upon the fa'e,'
Road is than that upon the Ere roa1i
This is fact Of no importance. The paterson MA
is graded for two tracks, and it will be adap"o 10

Retrenchmenf.

Mr.. Adams touched the right chord-(he rarely
misses it)-on Wednesday in Congress, insisting
that there must be a sweeping Retrenchment OF
the Expenditures of the Government, and that the
ARMAND Napu must bear the brunt OF It, There
;s no sound reason that we should pay Sixteen or
Eiohteen Millions annually as the cost OF Ma
t;onal Defence in time of profound peace, when
we formerly were quite as secure, and our Ma
t;on,l Honor as well cared for at an expense OF
Eight or Nine Millions. Can any man say
wherein our Navy, now costing some Eight to
Nine Millions year, is moro efficient than 1t
was when under John Quincy Adams it cost
between Three and Five Millions? Can any
man tell what service we require of a Navy that
demands an expenditure upon it Of even Eight
Millions per annum? Can any man say wherein
the Nation has received any benefit iromit which
a force of half the cost might not have effected
We have had some very signal services from it
witness Com. APP Catesby Jones's capture OF
Monterey, which, Mexico is a feeble nation,
we got out of by paying the piper to the tune of
thirty or forty thousand dollars, beside the ecat
of the thing-but if Mexico had been England
France or Russia, we should not have smoothed it
over 30 easily, by odds. Occasionally, we hear of
q Commodore's making handsome spec, on an
Importation ofjackasscs,-whlc one would think
our Country could hardly stand in need OF, while
it patiently mods assent to such OUTLAWS as these.
But where the People have been benefited by our
Military and Naval ornaments to the extent of
u cooo
we cannot perceive. Looking at the Monterey
affair, Gen. Gancss Eruption to Nacogdochcs,
and the like, it looks to us as though VIC should be
quite as secure against Foreign hostility without
as VIC are with them.
The last Congress made right good beginning
with the Army, but it did not go far enough; and
it contented itself with resisting the extravagant
projects of Secretary Upshur with regard to the
Navy, when it ought to have brushed them aside
and applied the pruning knife. Here was ms.
take, but it may be recti6ed yet. The Annual
Expenditures of the Federal Government peace
excluding the Post Office and collection OF Re
venue, as usuaD ought not to exceed Twenty
Millions, of which at least Three Millions should
be devoted to works of lasting utility-lmproying
Rivers, Harbors, Public Buildings, &c. At thi:
rate, we could soon pay off our debt; now we
arc shamefuly increasing it. We grudge ever,
dollar spent that perish in the using while We
care not how much is laid out in Public Works
which sensbly benefit the People and remain :
blessing to Posterity. We trust this distinction
will be kept broadly in view by Congress here
after

NJ The Plebeian assails the private character
of HENRY CLAY with vague, abusive charges and
the foule.t insinuatons whileit holds up MARTIN
VAN BuRsN's life as model of excellence. we
can perceive no object, no excuse Tor warfare OF
this kind and it seems to US that the lndlsputa-
HE fact that the People of his own town and
County, who have known Mr.. Clay Intimately
for more than forty years and have with signal
nnanimity and uninterrupted steadness sustained
him through good and evil report, ought to be
e,,nosed to know more of him than reckless,
bitter enemy thousand miles away, who has
s,wavs been stranger to him and them. OF Mr.
Van Burcn's private character we have never
said auy thing, and desire to say nothing, so long
80 he conducts himself before the public with pro-
nr;e,, az we believe he has always done. But
e ~. friends of Mr.. Van Buren-those who con-
duct the responsible and leading presses devoted
:, b;s c,nse-will indicate a desire TO embark IN
a scrutiny of the private characters OF these two
candidates for public favor, we shall enter upon
onr par, of the undertaking with alacrity. We
wait to see whether The Phebeian's coarse and
false personal attacks on Mr. Clay are endorsed
by the Albany Argus.

ErTcu for the Albany Atlas OF Thursday evening,
