the details, drainage, &c. of the track execu-
ted with proper SKILL have no doubt that
your permanent way will be found smooth
and durable.
will now take leave to call your attention
TO the question of Il cast-iron rail :; and by ur-
ging lis Importance to the Railroad and Iron
interests ofthe country generally, to ask you
to lay down some fifty or sixty yards oft by
way ofexperiment on your road. enclosed
in this section of such rail as l would re-
commend for this trial, the castings being
made in feet lengths, and made 10 break
]ont with the wrought iron caps. look for
ward to the adoption Of the cast iron on lon
gitudinal bearings as a probable result in this
country; but in order to remove the preju-
dices against it as a material fr rails, would
begin by first Introducing it conformity with
wrought iron. My object in recommending
this TO you for trial. is the advancement ofthe
iron, and consequently Of the Rail!o inter
ests Of the country for while the British iron
masters command the market here, and pro-
tective duties are surrounded with difficulties
the best means Jfkeeping the manufacture
of rails at home is by bringing into compe-
tilon with the English wrought rails. an ar
ticle Of home manufacture, protected by an
American patent-right. This right will use
for the exclusion of foreign rails, and thereby
enable every furnace fsuccessfuD to run rails
for the road traversing its own district. Ifyou
should feel called on as have no doubt you
WILL to lay down on your line some few yards
ola track, for the purpose of an experiment
so interesting to every railroad and district Of
the Union, shall ~on learning your wishes
go into the necessary details for the execu
ton ofsuch Il purpose.
In conclusion, hoping that may have done
something towards the advancement of your
road, or have even to q small extent toward:

The Largo RObbery.

The st. Louis papers confirm our Cairo
correspondents account of the heavy robbery
on board the steamboat Ne Plus Ultra. BY
the Intelligencer of the 22d. it appears that
Mr.. John Grigsby citizen OF California,
and D. F. Mcclellan, who resides near Sib-
ley, Fulton county, Missouri, were robbed on
board the Ne Plus Ultra on Tuesday the
18th inst, Of S11, 400 in money, They were
passengers on the boat on their return from
California. The robbery was perpetrated:
probably whilst the boat was lying at the
Levee at New Orleans, but was not discov-
cred until an hour after she had left port Tor
this city. The money was in trunk in their
stafe-room. which was broken open with a
ehisel, and the funds extracted, since which
time nothing has transpired that would lead
to It's recovery. Messrs. Grigsby and Nc
CleIlan came passengers in the Georgia to
HAVANA, in the Aeon to Mobile and reach
ed New Orleans only a few hours previous to
their starting for ST. Louis. -..
At New Orleans they exchanged their
gold dust for gold principally, consisting of
American Eagles and Sovereigns, and with
it took passage with other returning emf
grants for this city, on the Ne PLus Ultra -
OF the money lost $500 belonged to Mr..
Grigsby, the residue to Mr.. Mcclellan.

M. Butt HevvsOn, Esq, Civil Engineer.
We cheerfully give publicity to the follow
ing very interesting letter from NJ Butt
Hewson, Esq, to Judge Hall, President of
the Evansville and Illinois Railroad Co.
Mr.. Hewson is a Civil Engineer Of the first
order of talents-his superior is not to be
found in the United States. Any suggestion
coming from such source merits candid
consideration from the public.
The experiment of cast iron rails ON con-
tinuouS bearings, he says, and says truly, has
never been tested-that it is worthy oil being
fairly tried, will at once be admitted by all.
If found to answer, as Mr.. Hewson thinks 1t
will. we need no longer be put to the trouble
and expense of sending 10 Europe for iron ioE
our railroads; as we can get it cheaper at our
! foundres in our own country:

Trade-water Coal MINES.

These extensive coal mines are situated in
Crittenden county. KY, and are now receiv-
ing that notice in the West and South their
great Importance so justly merits. The mi
ming operations are conducted by the Hon.
John Bell of Nashville. We may, at least.
imperfectly calculate the immense quantity
of coal dug from these mines, when we look
at the fact that at least sixty men are con-
stantly engaged in mining. We believe we
do not exaggerate when we state that fully
five thousand bushels Of coal are dug from
the Trade-water coal mines daily.
Numerous depots for the sale. of this coal
have been established on the Ohio and Mis-
sissippi rivers the most extensive of which
are at Cairo, H., Paducah, Smithland and
the mouth of Trade water, KY. The coal
has stood = thorough test among steamboat
mon and is found to he better adapted to the
purpose of making steam than any other coal
which can be procured IN the West. Owing
to a slight impurity in it, it is probable this
coal will never be so generally used by forg
ers and smiths as the Pittsburgh coal, bu
thatlt will on account of its cheapness anC
fitness, be as extensively used among steam
boatmen, milIers and manufacturers, we art
well satisfied.

P.s. We learn that the Jury found Mr.

~ 1t was reported by passengers on the
Griffin Yeatman, that the Bostona had beat

from New Orleans to Louisville, we have I'M
derstood, on bet of ten or nineteen thousand
dollars. We don't believe in the principle
nor the practice ofsteamboat racing, for it is
always accompanied with more or less dan

benefit.
