THE RAnRoAD.-The Madison Banner of the 18th
inst has the following:
1t is with pleasure we are authorized to say that
the Madison and indianapolis Railroad Company.
through their agent, ]. F. D. Lanier, Esq, of this
city, have succeeded in negotiating in the city of
New York, loan of 100000 90 on favorable terms.
This viii enable the Company to complete the road to
Indianapolis by the LIST of March next; and when
completed it will be of great benefit to the people,
and doubt highly profitable to the stockholders.
This they deserve, they took bold of itwith energy
in dark and trying hour in the history of Indiana.
The history of this road is somewhat singular.
Whilst under the States management, it produced
but little revenue. Since it into the hands of
the Company, vitality has been given to it. The first
year the receipts were 1913 Geo; the 3D. $4,000; the
Sd, $4,000; and will probably reach 100000 the
present year; and after its completion the nett income
will not be less than 100000.
We are informed that Mr.. Lanier very much
indebted for his success the credit and exertons OF
MesSrs. Wnslow & Perkins, highly respectable
and responsible firm in Wall street, New York
They took the pains to look into the condition and
prospects of the Company, and became satisfied of
its entire security and good management and that it's
stock must prove at early period very profitable.
This is the same firm that has been so efficient in
procuring the and cooperation Of foreign
and domestic Bondholders to the law of last winter
providing for the liquidation of our immense State
debt. The citizens of Indiana under great obi
bations to them and Mr. Charles Butler for their
agency in the matter

From the Union, August 10.
Congress Adjourned.

Both Houses Of Congress adjourned this day, in
conformity with their joint resolution, at II o'clock.
The hour considered as peremptorily binding on
the speakers; but we trust it is the very last time
that the resolution for adjournment is be fixed at
particular honr-for, what is the effect today Two
or three of the important bills of the last days
Of the session were cut off by the knees. The navy
pension bill is thrown overheard TO the great detri-
ment of many poor widow. The post Office route
bill, embracing among other important features the
provision reviving the privilege Of fanking in favor
of all those post Offices the salary of which does
amount to 800, overlaid. The bill confirming
the Cherokee treaty, which had been twice rejected
in the Senate Saturday night, and then passed by
majority of one, lost for want of time to act
finally npon 1t.
The important bill which authorizes the President
TO employ 600 coo in facilitating the settlement of
peace with Mexico was actually lost by Mr.. Senator
Davis, of Massachusetts, speaking against time,
whilst voices from the chamber were heard rcmonsra
ting against him for this determined attempt to pre-
vent the introduction of resolution for prolongng
the session for few hours. This measure, which is
deemed most important for negotiating peace be-
tween tho countries, and The fundamental princ-
pie of which recognised by the vote OF the House
of Representatives the passage of the BILL and by
decided vote of the Senate their own resolutions,
has been sacrificed by Senator's wasting the time OF
the Senate until the moment of adjournment had
arrived.
Whatever mischief may arise from the loss of this
bill, may be fairly attributed to the honorable p"
Senator from Massachusetts.
il is unfortunate that these measures should have
failed during the last hours Of the session. but how
ever much we may regret the loss of them, we can
not hesitate to pronounce that this has been one OF
the most remarkable and brilliant sessions which has
ever been held within the walls of the Capitol Long
and arduous and animated as it has been, rejoice
that has been continued until all the great measures
/ of reform which the President recommended In his
message and the interests of the country demanded,
have been carried through, except the graduation Of
the public lands. But this trophy remains for the
next session to weave around its brow We shall
review the great works of the session, however, in a
future article We have no room for it this evening.

The Charlottesville press" appears to be in
aterrible way about the tariff, especially be-
cause il reduces the duties Iron. The editor halls
from Pennsylvania, and cannot yet realize the fact
that he now lives in State whose interests are as
much opposed to high duties iron, those of
Pennsylvania supposed by him to be IN favor of
such duties. There is one fact connected with the
iron duties to which we wish TO call bis attention.
On the 9th inst Mr.. EVANS. the Wing Senator from
Maine, offered resolution in the Senate, renting
the duties imported railroad iron, heretofore col
lected to the extent of several millions of dollars 1t
is unnecessary to suggest that this is true develop
ment of Tariff Wggery. Railroad Corporations,
they argue, should have their iron duty free, but
every trace chain, pot, horseshoe, and every other
article of iron used by farmers and mechanics must
be taxed two hundred per cent, to protect
Pennsylvanians. 1t is practical illustration of the
Websterian doctrine-"Ta care of the rich, and
the rich will take of the poor,"-a maxim of
which be personally experiences the full utility.

Truth WILL oUT.-The Newburyport Herald,
Wing paper, and an advocate of the Tariff of 1872
contains the following statement and remarks, under
date of the 9th inst:
THE New MTLLs-The stockholders of the Globe
and Ocean Mills, meet tomorrow, to take measures
for the increase of their capital stock to put the
mills into immediate operation. These mills have
received and set up nearly all their machinery
and in few weeks will be prepared for the manu-
facture Of CLOTH The size of the mills having been
made larger than originally designed in conse-
quence of this fact and the necessity at the present
time of providing some working capital besides that
invested in buildings and machinery, an increase of
capital is requisite
We have made some inquiry as to the COMPETE
ton which these mills will encounter from the English
manufacturers under the tariff and find that the
goods they will manufacture, cost within a small
fraction as uch-in-England, as they do here. The
English manufacturers work into their goods por-
tion of East India cotton which only one half
much American cotton, and by this some
times undersell in such fabrcs but the quality of
the cloth is in these cases so Inferior that even the
Chinese and Brazilians prefer to pay the enhanced
price of American goods, except when they are de-
ceived by the imitation of American goods which
some of the Englishmen adopt.
With fairly levied % per cent. duty, we believe
these mills will do better business than the navga
ton interest generally, especially the domestic
competition will probably be much essened for seve-
raj years TO come. The machinery has all the latest
improvements, and intelligent and experienced agents
have been appointed to superintend the manufacture
