The remark, OF the speakers al The meeting on
Wednesday nigh, threw some light upon The cost
of the Richmond and Ohio Railroad. We quote
the Wings notice on this points
"Moncule Robinson, Esq estimates it at eight
millions OF dollars; and it was upon This estimate,
and upon The prospective increase OF population
and trade in The "grcat West" that captain
Morris based his opinion that the Stock woula
Weld so large a dividend, GO 10 25 per cent?
But Canaan Dimmock assumed that il would
cost 10 600 600 dollars, and that, instead OF cost
ing for repairs, some 7co dollars per mile per
annum, (Which is, we believe, about the average,
in The United Srates,) it would cos, upwards OF
1000 dollars; and be proceeded 10 show, by a
mos, moderate computation OF tonnage and travel
thai. even upon these extreme assumptions, after
Welding per cent upon The capital invested,
there would be very large annual surplus"

BIZ American science, energy and moral power,
over the numerous hordes Of Mexico, have e1-

sentiment OF Great Britain. Journalists who
a short time since deprecated and viifed The
American people, now, since the glorious bat
ties of Contreras and Churubusco take pride
in our deeds, claim relationship with US, trace
the descent of our victorious generals, and
laud The ability with which tho "rabble militia"
emulate the greatest achievements OF British We
