great railroad route, at $50 per ton, and leave a
very handsome profit. European or eastern rail-
road iron cannot be delivered here tor less than
S55 per II must be apparent, therefore, that
large demand for the article would at once bring
our immense resources into requislton, and secure
the retention of capital among us.
The distance over the contemplated route to the
Pacific cannot be less than twenty-five hundred
miles between St. Louis and San Francisco. The
length OF the Oregon branch, added to that OF
necessary side branches, and "A second track on a
portion of the main road, as contemplated by Mr.:
Benton's bill, would probably make fifteen hundred
miles more. Thus, we would have about four
thousand miles of railroad west of the Mississippi.
We can, therefore, arrive at something like GER
tainty, to the amount and value of the railroad
iron required. The weight of the necessary rail
would scarcely be less than fifty pounds to the
yard, or lightweight tons per mile. The four
thousand miles of railroad would require, there
fore, three hundred and fifty thousand tons of iron,
worth, at $50 per ton, seventeen millions, Six hum
dred thousand dollars Now this, it would seem,
would be pretty little sum to give to the West,
a means of developing her resources and encou-
raging her industry; but Mr.. Benton, thirty
years representative of Western interests, would
deprive her of it altogether.
In Mr. Benton's speech in Congress, in defence
of his bill, he says nothing if recollect Alright, as
to his reason for wishing to go to work, as il may
be properly called, 'wrong end foremost" | can
not imagine a motive which could have weighed
with the able statesman in such a preference. Il
would be more liberal to conceive it an oversight
than disregard for the interests of the country in
genera, and his own immediate constituents il
particular. ARGUS

ARRIVAL OF GOLD FROM CxLfFoRNIA &c
Nothing, scarcely, is talked OF, nowadays,
but gold. The California fever, which ragged
with such violence six months ago, has broken
out airesh The numerous recent arrivals from
the dlggtns,' OF persons who have been there
and dug the mselves rich, and the many substan-
tial proofs al the truth ct the stories told OF the
ireXhaustble wealth of the mines OF the modern
OphIr IN the shape of huge specimens OF golden
ore, bags of gold dust, and Jumps aud bars of the
solid yellow metal, have awakened new visions OF
fortunes in perspective and again given Impllse.
which does not appear likely soon To receive
check, TO the rush from the Atlantic State. IA the
East for the Pacific territories IN the West. The
tide of emigration for the next half year 10 the
American land OF promise, will, doubtless, exceed
the most extravagant calculation. As our readers
are all Interested, more or less, aud particularly
at this time, In everything relating To California
gold, we present, for their information. the sub
joined statement, prepared for and furnished 10 vs.
by Col. James Ross Snowden, Treasurer of the
Philadep hia Mint. The amount of California gold
received at the mint of the United States in this
city for coinage, up 10 June 18th. is as follows
Total ounces, about IS, i5s-equa in value to about
100000. A considerable portion of the above
has been received by the recent arrivals from that
country. The valuation is made at els the ounce.
But little Of the last lot OF gold brought By the
Crescent City has, so far, reached the mint. While
upon this subject, we may not appropriately add,
that the work Of coming the gold dollars was COM
menced on the 9Th of May last, and has been con-
tlnued ever since. The tininess and beauty of this
coin induced an eager desire, at first, to obtain it,
and there was, for several weeks, great rush for
IT. Curiosity, however, having been considerably
satisfied, the demand has lately decreased. We
are also indebted 10 the polIteness of Col. Snow

amount OF the coinage OF the gold dollar up to

From THE OVERLAND EMiGRASTs-The Fort
Kearney (Nebraska) correspondent of the St
Louis (Mo.) Republican, of the 2lst ult., writing
under date OF the I'd ult., says 1.-THE emgrants
are ttill pressing forward IN vast crowds towards
the Pacific. Livery day, every hour increases the
number. Yesterday ISL wagons the day before
AGO, rolled past US. making In all 3,739 west Of this
point, that are at this moment vending their way
TO the golden regions of California. Accompany
ing these wagons, and including a few trains Of
pack animals, are nearly 1900 persons. Those
who passed along amongst the first were in fine
spirits but qslte change Is observable in the
ire and rear. Doubts begin TO assail many as TO
the practcabilIiy Of crossing TIE mountains owing
TO the scarcity of grass and other causes. The
grass, even on the Platte, already begins to feel
and show the heavy demands made upon it, what
then must be expected in the mountainl Such suf-
ferng ss but few have ever dreamed of will be ex-
peTlenced this year. Would they but preserve
their provisions much Of this might be prevented,

Of the finest flour and bacon are offered for sale
at one dollar per hundred. and If no purchasers
be found, are left by the road side.
The weather continues TO be exceedingly bad
raining almost every other day, and the conse-
quence rs, the roads are very heavy, and the pro-
grefs Of the emngrant slow. Thunder storms Of
the first magnitude can be got up along the valley
OF the Platte as frequently, and in as brief
period as in any other quarter Of the world The
other evening we were favored with oBe, when sir
