the day on which our old friend; and we
may say the idvorite son of Ohio, the
Hon. Thomas Ewing, will be here. We

THE HoM. CHARLES NAYLOR

The name Of this gentleman was men,
toned. MS our readers may remember, in
the@occounts which we copied from the
Philadelphia papers of the late unhappy
disturbances in that city, during which he
was temporarily taken into custody on the
allegation OF resistance to the legal authori-
ues' by u:tering an exclamation, when the
first order (not eXecuted) was given to the
military to fire, in these words, "No! don't
fire! don't hre!" A day or two after the
crisis Of these disturbances had passed, MIR.

Owsley's majority, the Whig candidate
for Governor, so far as heard from, is 7 ,498.
Twenty-Five counties yet to hear from, in
which Letcherand French,s vote was near

We have elected our Wing Governor by
nearly SEVEN thousand votes. From the
beginning we expected no larger majority.
The wealth Of Kentucky opposed to Mr..
Clay-the wealth Of "the party" out OF
Kentucky-knowing Buffers great popu-
larity, aand wishing to wound the feelings
Of the great Western Statesman, and dash
the enthusiasm Of his friends, bent all their
energies, all their means, to the one point
Of defeating Owsiey. They have failed
signally failed. His majority, under the
circumstances, is the greatest triumph the
Wings have yet achieved, morally and po-
liticalIy, and should make glad any Wing
who reasons upon, and understands, the

RAIL ROAD.

The whole amount of Lead shipped from
the Upper Mines during the year Is43 was
4O,SS9,l7o pounds. Three four,hs of this
Lead would have passed over Rail Road ex-
tending from The Mississippi to Lake Michigan
and charging for transportation thereon 81 2
cents per 100 pounds; the proceeds of WHICH
would have been Sll9.0 70. The trans.
portaiion of other produce, the importation of
merchandise and travel would have increased
this amount to at least 1854 ,OO2 81. We be.
iieve this estimate 10 be under the amount that
would have accrued from such road during
the past year. Now, we will suppose this
work 10 be completed three years hence, and
that The Increase in the products of the country
be estimated by the increase of 1913 over 1871.
which, 10 the transportation of The one article.
Lead, would amount 10 s3l $50 81. The in
crease in other branches of business-which
must inevitably take place would swell this
amount 10 S95,072 SO. This amount. again.
would be at least doubled by the impetus
which business would receive in the anlicipa.
ton OF the advantages that would arise from
The completion Of the Road making the total

disposed 10 object to the amount of Lead tha,

lei them remember that by this route Lead
VIII reach The eastern market at an expense not
exceeding 20 cents per 100 lbs, while i, can
never reach its destination via New Orleans
without paying 81 IL l.2 for the transporla.
ton Of every one hundred pounds. This diff
ference in the cost Of transportation, upon
Lead alone, would have amounted in the past
year to siG,76i Sc. We expect, ere long, to
be able 10 show that enough has already been
sacrificed, in this way, TO have constructed a
Rail Road from the River 10 the Lake. Again,
Lead can be sent, by the northern route, to N.
