The Central Rail-ROad.

We find the following notice in relation
to the above work in the New York Fri
bune Of the 9th. AS the time for the
completion of the road is limited by the
act of Congress granting the donation, it
will devolve on the Legislature, at its
next session, TO mature some plan to meet
the requirement.
"The attention of the creditors of the
State of Illinois is called by the Agent
of the State, Mr.. Wadsworth, to the
necessity of some action in relation to
the donation Of land made by the last
Congress for the completion Of the Chi
cage and Mobile Railroad.
This grant gives Illinois about two
and half millions of acres of land upon
the condition that the State builds the
road within her limits, with branches to
Galena and Chicago within ten years.
If the road can be built in sections of 90
or 100 miles, and the lands sold after the
completion Of the sections, it is thought
the whole amount will yield ten or twelve
millions of dollars, while the cost of the
road will not exceed eight millions. Mr..
Wadsworth suggests that gin order to
save this valuable donation from the
grasp of private companies, and that it
may accrue to the benefit of the State
and its creditors, that the creditors should
take some action in the matter either
by forming company for the building of
the road, receiving the lands as bonus,
the indebtedness Of the State to be re-
ceivable for the lands when sold-or to
make loan to the State for the purpose
of building the road, i'll proportion to the
bonds held, as the creditors of Indiana
did to that State for the completion of
the Canal. The amount of Indebtedness
Of Illinois, not including the registered
Illinois and Michigan Canal Bonds and
arrears of interest, is about eight mil
lions of dollars. So that a loan of twen-
ty-fvc per cent. by the holders of these
bonds, with the proceeds of the lands as
sold, it is believed will be sufficient to
build the road. About one million of
dollars was some years ago expended on
the Southern division of this road, much
of which is still available"
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1850-11-14
Indian DiMcuIties.

A letter in the Alta California, dated
American Bar, Feather River, says:
/ have recently heard of desperate
battle that took place between the miners
and Indians several miles above. The
Indians having been guilty of many I'M
provoked outrages and murders, the
whites formed a corps of rihemen for
their common defence. While seven or
eight of the company were out prospect
ing, they were suddenly attacked by a
party of fifty or sixty of the natives,
some of whom were armed with pistols
which had been imprudently sold them
by the whites. The company stood their
ground, and were soon reinforced by
their commander, capt. Sanger, } and
soon others heard the firing and rushed
TO their aid. This little band stood their
ground for three hours under terrible
hot sun and in most disadvantageous
position, till at last the Indians, disheart-
ened by their slain, retreated. Captain
Sanger was mortaliy wounded, and three
others severely; the former was from
Massachusetts, and the latter from
Maine. 1t. Johnson started the next
day with the entire force, and complete
ly broke up all the enemy's villages and
camps, and entirely routed the scoun-
drels, so that no Government aid will be
needed at present. He is quite sure that
he heard an Irish or Scotch voice among
the enemy-perhaps some disgraced mi
ner. The Maine and Massachusetts
men were dreadfully exasperated by the
attack on their friends, and took fearful
and the deadly rifles of the
Kentuckians and Missourians told with
terrible effect. s~'

The BRITANNIA TUBULAR BRIpGE.-
This great work was finally completed
on Friday, the 18th ult., by the lowering
of the last Of the tubes to its final rest
ing place. The total cost of the entire
structure has been f60l 1865. The to-
tai weight of each of the wrought iron
roadways now completed, represents 49,
900 tons, supported on total mass OF
masonry of million and half cubic
feet, which was erected at the rate of
three feet in minute. Some curious
acoustic effects have been Observed
Pistol shots, or any noises are echoed
within the tubes half dozen times
The cells of the top and bottom are used
by the engineers as speaking tubes, and
they are able to carry on conversation
through them in whispers by elevating
the voice persons may convers through
the length of the bridge-nearly quar-
ter Of mile.
