10 the people Of tie United Sfates -
Having come TO the United States 10
avail myself, for the cause ofmy coun-
try, of the sympathy which had rea-
son to believe existed in the heart Of
the nation. found it my duty TO de-
clare. in the first moments Of my arri-
val. that it is my mission to plead the
Independence Of hungary and the lib
erty of the European continent, before
the great Republic Of the United
States. Ny principle in this respect
is, that every nation has the sovereign
right to dispose Of its own domestic
affairs. without any foreign interfer-
ence that, !, therefore, shall not med
die with any domestic concerns Of the
United States, and that, ! expect it
from all the friends of nv causenot 10
do anything in respect 70 myself that
could throw difficulties in my way,
and, while expressing sympathy for
the cause would injure it.
It is with regret that must feel the
necessity Of making ihat appeal 10 the
public opinion of this country. and par
iicularly to those who profess them
seIvesfo be friends Of my cause, to
give one proof Of their sympathy BIZ
avoiding every step to he rule which
| have adopted, and which | again de.

not to mix and not TO be mixed up
whatever with domestic concerns or

TnE LAST SERMON. late Rev.
Dr.Croswell, of Boston seems to have
had a preseniiment of his fate. On
the day before his death. he was in a
book store, in company with two cler-
ical brethren; and in reply to one of
them, who asked him which way he
was walking. sad: Il must go
home and finish my last sermon. -
This reply at once arrested the aften-
tion OF the other clerical brother -
who, in his peculiarly earnest and af-
fectionate manner, laid his hand IA
miliarly upon the Doctors shoulder,
and said "You do not mean my bro.
ther, your last sermon; but your last
sermon this week." To this remark
Dr Croswcll made no reply: and soon
alter they separated, never more to
meet again on earth. 1t is striking

OF the delivery Of this sermon. that the

roao
work. maa. careful examination of the map
and profile OF tie line, as located by Mr.. Shute,
and also passed over the line for the purpose OF
determining whether any improvement could
be made in location or grade 1t affords me
satisfaction TO state, that foSnc the line mainly
we'll located and the grades all vel. applied.
The caves; grade is 40 per mile anu least ra-
dius of curvature 1000 feet, these are much
more favorable than the grades and curves GU
most roads now being built.
The estimated cost of your road ready 70. the
cars is as follows:
For Grubbing. grading 4 masonry, $56, $50
g. miles track for main line aud
sidlings 42.25o
Contingencies 5000
Total, slo3,5oo
Or say 81 $50 per mile.
Owing to the untula,ing character of the
country over which your road passes. the cost
OF construction will some what exceed the cost
OF few Of the cheaper roads in the line Of
Counties lying in the northern and western por-
tons Of Ohio and Indiana, but the cost is much
less. than the average cost Of first class roads,
such yours is to be. The Little Miami
Rail Road, in Ohio, cost per mile. S25,S74
Mad River and Lake Erie Rail
Road. per mile, about $40 900
Utica and Syracuse Rail Road. n.
Y, per mile $1,000
Utica, Sche nectadv, New York,
per mile, double track $1,000 !
Auburn and Rochester Road cost
per mile, 1900 /
The cost Of the above roads includes equip /
ne nts. They all considered eh-apIy con-
tructed, and are now paying dividends Of from
0 to Is per cent.
The cost Of the Road from Hamilton to Ea.
on aud Richmond, which should be one line, will
e about Sis 800 or 81, 100 per mile. equipped
,r the first years business.
This will be very cheap road, when compar-
to the cost Of Roads of the same character
,rou ghout the United States. The work on
