ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE.

Our readers will, perhaps, be ab!c to
Judge Of the utility Of the extra session Of
the Illinois Legislature BY the following ex-
planatory paragraph from the Chicago Dali
Iy Journal. Writing upon this subject the
editor says:-
"This body, the offspring Of Loeofoc oism
drew its last breath on Wednesday, and closed its
"extraordi,ary' lsbors. Like the mountain in
travail. very small mouse has been Produced
But few ofihe objects specified BY the Cover

.ure, while the darlings he hoped 10 rock in the
democratic cradle, have not blessed his vision.-
He failed TO get more Than beggarly expression
in favor Of his candidate for the Senate-his s..
Louis apples turned 10 ashes, on his lips-ant
even the wise and statutary law Of "iIomesteae
Exemption with allhis efforts, has again faIler
at the hands Of Locofoco headsmen."

sssveral meetings have recently been held q

receive subscriptions Of stock have been opened
At various points, with considerable success, and
great confidence is expressed that the means ne
cessary for grading the road can be raised ~ the
section Of country most Immediately interested.
sWe have no hesitation in asserting," says the
Davenport Gazette, ssthat before me expiration
Of the year l89, one-half Of the amount requisite
10 the completion Of the road in readiness Tor
good substantial T rail, will be subscribed IN Inc
Two above named counties alone''-Scott, IN this
State, and Rock Island in Illinois. he distance
between the points designated for the teFminl o.
the road is estimated at from IS TO 90 miles. The
country over which it is to run is understood 10
be free, comparatively, from oil inequality OF sur
face, thereby greatly diminishing the cost OF gra-
ding. 100000 is stated 10 be large essimase
for this item Of expenditure.
s:Peru being the termination Of The -Mlehl8an
and Illinois canal, the opening OF means Of
speedy aud cheap transit between it and the Mis-
.issippiriyer at any point, cannot but be regard
ed as an object Of great importance to our State.
Davenport, and the middle counties, in view Of
the western terminus Of tie projected road, may
have more direct interest in The matter than 9TH
er sections, but ultimately the whole State must
be essentially benefited BY the improvement
We hope, therefore, thatit will be made"
The Iowa Statesman says:--
1--WE have been looking anxiously Tor the COM
ple,ion Of the G .lena and Chicago Railroad,
which we have thought would open more ae-
vantageous communication to the lakes for the
surplus produce Of this section, thsn we now
have down the river; but we do not now see Why
the construction Of railroad from Rock Islapd
TO connect with the Illinois canal will not accom-
MEDIATE this portion Of the State better than the
more circuit route BY the way Of Galena. With
this view Of the matter we shall hold up both
hands for The speedy construction Of The railroad
to Rock Island"

IMMIGRATION.

Iowa is peopling more rapidly this than
any former season. The California fever
has had the effect to make persons discon-
tented with their homes-to intuse more
largely into Americans that spirit Of loco
motion for which we ore so widely known
% q people. No other nation under the
sun would ia 90 short Time have as densels
populated distant county under such IN
favorable auspicesas we Americans have
settled California. That uneasy feeling
which prompts our country men to change
their abodes and pursuits SO often, TO the
great scandal Of beef.loying Johnny Ball,
needed but the incentive 81 the almighty
dollar to become heightened into fever,
contagious as fatal. Disappointed, many
Of them, in reaching the FL Dorado upon
the Pacific, and determined 10 50 to some
place where their labor would meet with
Jus, appreciation and IN ample remunera-
ton, they seek the richer country, lased BY
the waters Of the great Father Of Rivers.
and known a. Io,ca-one Of the youngest
and most beautiful Of Uncle Sans daugh-
tiers. They are welcome, and so long as
they bring with them affections chas,ened
by = surrender Of sordid human nature
seeking sudden wealth, they will find a

upon the arabic acres Of Iowa.

intended 10 secure 10 Us this branch Road

this ..new move'' tends 10 effect that object.
A Railroad projected from this po'nt I"

Peru, on the Illinois river, it has been as

$500, 900, aud il has since been proven
that this amount can and rill be raised
Peru is very little out Of a direct Railroad
line between Rock Island and Chicago and
that deviation is gained by the favorable
ness Of the ground. i is by no means the
intention 10 allow this Road to terminate a.
Peru. The charter expressly provides for
its extension. But without further discus
sion Of the subject, we will show our co,cm-
porary why this route is SO desirable 10
people Of limited means. After reaching
Peru it would bc optional with its stock
holders to give this Road a southern vnrin-
lion to unite with the Road direct from the
East around the southern bend Of Lake
Michigan, or northern variation TO unite
with the Chicago road. Either company
would doubtless contribute largely 10 mid
in an union with itself But beyond all
question long before the Rock Island Road
is completed 10 Peru The Chicago Road will
be in full operation TO that place. Area
DIV the con,rac, has been let and the snrve, ,
we think, been made, for Road from e.
gin 10 Aurora in direct line to Peru,
which fact should at once silence our friend
upon this subject. Within fortnight we
have perused letter from the Engineer,
who has the contract from Elgin to Aurora,
in which he says that in three ycars--wi,h-
out our aid-ihat Road will be completed
to Rock Island. So that our friend will
perceive that he is some years behind the
times ia emphaticalIy asserting that Rail-
road will nerer connect Rock Island and
Chicago through Peru.
