THE GREAT PACIFIC RArLRoAD.-There can be
no question that public opinion in the United
States has been, for number of years past, tend
ing to the conclusion that before the resources Of
the country could be properly developed, or the ex.
traordinary advantages which Providence, in its
wisdom, has bestowed upon us as nation, made
available, there should be direct communication
between our Atlantic and Pacific coasts; and as
At the same Providence intended that such COM
'munication should be made, a gap In the great
backbone Of the American contInent-the Rocky
Mountains-was discovered, which offers every
lnducement to construct such work.
Previous to the Mexican war, however, that
opinion was rather vague and indefinite. The
TroPuety and manifest advantage OF connection
between those distant extremities was acknow.
lodged, and would, even it that war never had been
inferred upon, been ultimately carried out. But
we possessed no appropriate hsrbor on eur west
ern coast--no place possessing the necessary adj
vantages for commercial purposes; but even with
out any such port as this, the idea was not only
entertained, but public opinion, if not the wants
OF the country, would soon have demanded that
some steps should be taken towards accomplish.
