A GIANT CHAIN OF RAILROAD
A bill has been ordered to a third
reading in the United States Sen
ate, to aid the State of Mississippi
in the construction Of a railroad
from Jackson, through Brandon, to
the Western boundary of Ala
bama. AS it has received the
support Of all parties, without re-
ference to locality or politics, and
was pressed to third reading, ayes
%, hayes 8, we presume there can
be no doubt of it's finally becoming
a law. The aid is to be given by
the grant Of alternate sections Of
the public land along the proposed
road. We are pleased to see that
there is prospect amounting al
most to certainty, Of the passage of
this bill. The railroad is link of
the great chain between Charles
ton and Vicksburg, and when COM
pleted, the communication from
Portland, in Maine, to Vicksburg,

exceptions. 1t will be one of the
noblest thoroughfares in the world,
and as a means Of consolidating
our Union, and bringing it's oppo-
site extremes into closer fellow
ship, will have an important po-
litical and social influence. It
will be the means, too, Of adding
to the value Of parts of the chain
of road now detached and compar-
atively useless. Thus with a
terminus on the Mississippi river,
the Vicksburg railroad will soon
become of great Importance as the
southern link Of the giant chain,
which running through MISSISSIPPI

will ascend along the Atlantic sea-
board through Portland and even

Taylor's dispatches to the governor of
Texas. The Monmuth was unable to
leave until Monday night, in conse-
quence of having to discharge and take
in provisions to be sent into Corpus
Christi for the volunteers as fast as they
arrive. These were left at St. Joseph's,
where the White Wing is now taking
them to their destination.
Gen. Memucan Hunt will leave this
city late this evening by way of Velasco
and Victoria 10 rendezvous at Corpus
Chlisti, preparatory to marching for the
relief of Gen. Taylor.
The United States army under Gen.
Taylor is surrounded by the Mexican
enemy on Texian soil. Gen. Taylor
has called upon the governor of Texas
for 24OO troops-let Galveston show to
the world that they are always ready for
the defence of their country-let them
display the same spirit and alacrity that
they did in 1912.

sed by Gen. Wortil's resignation,
which concludes with the follow
ing statement.
GAS was to be expected from the
character of Gen. Worth, his resig-
nation was accompanied by let
ter to the commanding officer.
Gen. TaylorO Offering his services
in any station, rank or capacity
which might be assigned to him.
He said further, that his resigna~
tion was all act due to himself and
to his brother officers Of Brevet
rank but that he owed the coun-
try a higher duty and that his
services therefore, in any capacity,
were freely rendered.
The Courier & Enquirer express
ses entire confidence that the re-
signation would not be accepted,
and it is understood here that such
is the fact, and that Gen. Worth
has been ordered back to his COM
mand. The army can but poorly
afford to dispense with such an
officer now, and his departure was
calculated to produce distrust and
dependency. We have heard
that some unkind feeling had
sprung up between Gen. Taylor
and Gen. Worth, which might be
supposed to have had some innu-
ence on the conduct of the latter.
But an emergency has arisen
which will bury all such inferior
matters in oblivion and knit in
one all brave and loyal hearts for
the salvation Of the army. Gen.
Worth is not a man to misunder-
stand the duties of such an emer-
gency.

A REAL ScAMr.-A young wo-
man appeared at the Police Office
at the Tombs and entered COM
plant against her husband, Jos.
French, to whom she had been but
lately married in New Orleans.
From her statement it appears
that her maiden name was Mary
Ford. She had by her industry
and frugality contrived to lay up
about 800, when she became ac-
quainted with French, to whom
she was married, and in company
with whom she left New Orleans
for this City, where they arrived
last Saturday. On Tuesday eve
ming the lately married couple
walked out up the Bowery. While
passing along the street French
asked his wife for the key of her
trunk, alleging as a reason for so
doing, that she might loose it., as
he himself had just dropped a key
upon the sidewalk. Having thus
obtained the key he contrived to
leave her standing in the street
while he went into a porter house.
She waited for a long time, but
her husband did not make his ap-
pearance, and she accordingly
procured the aid Of some person to
show her the way to her boarding
house in Robinson-st., where she
arrived a few minutes after French
had left with $3.50 in gold, which
he had taken from his wife's trunk.
He has not since been heard of.
