Petitions have been circulated and nu-
merously signed, in this vicinity, for a
Railroad Charter from Mineral Point to
tie southern border Of the State. for the
purpose Of intersceting the Chicago and
Galena Road No one acquainted with

from its completion. The large quanti-
ties Of Lead annually sent from this re
gion. in connection with the rapidly in
creasing Agricultural interests Of the
West, call loudly for some thorougbfare
Of this kind. and no other channel that
has been proposed, appears to US as prac-
ticable as does the one Of a Railroad to
intersect the one now being constructed
through tile northern portion Of Illinois,

an interesting correspondence relative TO the
Webster Annuity. There was no subject on
which this cnlneutly great and good man was
more sensitive; and with your permission.
propose to add one incident, Illustrative of the
refinement of feeling which characterized him.
Dining with him and Mrs. Webster, alone
on the 18th of July. he being then very feeble,
I urged on him to seek, by change of CONT
nent, to escape the annual return of the rheum,
or hay fever, which attacked him periodically
on the Goth of August. from which lie had been
entirely free when in England.
Knowing that the kind sympathy and gen
erous affection of the President would induce
him to assign to Mr.. Webster any duty whore
by his health and happiness would be promot-
cd, suggested his acceptance of the embassy
to the Court Of st. James. lie replied, "Mr.
Abbott Lawrence eXpcnds seventy thousand

position. | ain without means to meet my eX-
penditures beyond the sa ary' | replied -
"Your numerous friends who earnestly desire
you should prolong your invaluable life, will
never permit your individual resources to be
exhausted and am authorized to say that
whatever funds are necessary wi be promptly
supplied" Sir" said he, with sternness
never before displayed in an intercourse of a
quarter OF century 81 duly appreciate the
kindness and liberallty of my friends, but can
not consent to be their pensioner. Never re-
peat such suggestion" still shuddcr at
! the recollection Of his indignant frowr.
lie had fully realized the truth of one of ks
own aphorisms :--"1he man who enters public
life takes upon himself vow Of poverty, to
the religious observance Of which he is bound
50 long as he remains in it," And his poverty
vindIcated his integrity.

II have been shown this afternoon, and have

comforting the grade OF Lieu'enant General on

nj Htelligcncer, says:
SIT certainly will enhance the value Of this
generous tribute to the merits of General Scott,
when he remembers that the grade of Licute-
nant General has been conferred but once be -
fore in our history. That was upon George
Washington. 10 1898 he was appointed, by the
unanimous vote Of the Senate upon the nomi-
nation of President John Adams, at tim e

our Army. The Re solution has as yet indeed
only passed the Senatorial branch OF Congress
but we do not permit ourselves to doubt that 1t
will also receive the sanction Of the House oil
Representatives.
