Admitting, then, that there is no natural
impediment TO the construction of the
road, it becomes necessary to inquire
whether the means proposed by Mr.. Whit
ney will be adequate to the object. This
being an alIimporiant point, il has been
examined with great care by the Senate
committee, who say:
"Those means are to be derived from
the sale of the public lands already &C.
quired, and to be acquired by the oylin-
glishment Of the Indian title to the
breadth of thirty miles on each side Of the
road, extending from Lake Michigan 10
the shores Of the Pacific.
"Through a considerable extent Of the
route the land is said to be unsuitable for
settlement aud cultivation, and could not,
therefore, be expected to sell. But for
about seven hundred miles from the cas-
tern terminus. the lands are said 10 be OF
good quality, through, for the most part,

Ell Dorado they are in search Of. If it
takes five or six months 10 make dis

favorable to our rflsmen, OF which the

volunteer and regular force. Artillery
would be useless in these mountain gorges,
and since the capture of Monterey, we
have nearly all the artillery of the enemy
even if this branch of the service could

There is no possibility of battle be-

The Washington correspondent of the

his statement that gen. Wool is to join
gen. Taylor at Saiiillo, moving upon that
city from Moncova. The Galveston

We are informed (says the Commercial
Of the 9th ult,) Of new fanaical sect
in this city, now numbering about sixty,
more than half females, followers of big
hurley holf.lndian halEnegro, formerly
Mormon, who has proclaimed himself Je-
sus Christ! He showed his disciples, one
day last week, the scars of wounds in his
hands and limbs received on the Crossl
He does miracles with a golden rod, and
processes that he was the cause Of the de-
structlon of Natchez by whlrlwind, and of
the lightning striking the lady in this city
some weeks since lie has already or
ganized several apartments to his kingdom
we hear of a new Peter, Paul, &c. Tho
members Of this new religion are solemn.
y enjoned to secresy, and hold meetings
nightly. We believe there is kind Of
head quarters for them, at or near the cor
ner Of Race and Centre streets. Tho
new "black, speekled and gray" impostor
is we'll calculated to deceive people who
are void Of stable principles, and would
rather bo led away than Otherwise. Look

Hon. STEPEMES ADAMS We had tho
pleasure, some weeks ago, Of taking by the

eeilent member OF Congress, and has
shown himself representative every way
worthy of the confidence of his conslitu-
enls. Without aspiring 10 be an eminent
speaker, he has yet shown himself TO be
one Of the most useful business members
Of the IIouse--1lways in his scat, always
voting right We venture to assert that
no citizen Of the State has ever entrusted
any business in Washington T. Stephen
Adams that has no. been well and punctu-
ally attended to.
We presume the Judge will start for
Washington in few weeks. We wish
him pleasant journey, aud we hope that
he and his worthy colleagues will find
Congress lees turbulent in its proceedings
than it was the last session But lei them
all keep an e,e on the abolition members
from the north. From the signs q the
times, we appretead they wil need watch
ing more closely, this session, than they
ever have done before. LColamjas Dem.
