should look to the ameoration of his condi- ton, and aid hm in making such improve ments as will place him upon an equal foot ing with citizens of older States, especially when all this can be done without taking anything from the public treasury, and with, out violating the princip es of the constitu- ton.
 The work here proposed is one of such vital importance to the country, and it's claims to the aid of the General Government so strong and just, that we cannot doubt that Congress will make liberal appropriation of land in its behalf provided those interest ed in its accomplishment will bring the sub-
 ect in proper manner to the consideration of that body.
 There is now in existence charter for railroad from St. Louis 10 the southern boun- dary of this State, by the way of the Iron Mountain: two routes have been surveyed in that direction. Let the citizens of Mis- souri, interested in this route, move in the matter without delay, and memorialize Con- gress for grant of land to aid in its con- struction. There is general railroad law, as we are informed, in the State of Arkan- sas, under which her citizens may form company at pleasure, 10 act Tn concert with the citizens of Missouri. And we trust that our Southern neighbors will take the lead in work that will not only be the means of improving the richest part of their own State, but of building up a great con- mercial city at the only point on the west bank of the Mississippi, from the Gulf to Cape Gfrardeau, that can be regarded as safe against the encrOaChmentS of the river. If we suppose a railroad in existence from Helena 10 the Western boundary of the State of Arkansas, and another to St. Louis, that point will then command the trade of a larger scope of country than any other between st. Louis and New Orleans.
 And the people of Arkansas will neglect their best interest if they fail to do every thing in their power to build up a great commercial city within the limits of their own State.

TROUBLE IN THE WIGwAM.-We learn by private despatch from St. Louis, that the Locofoco Convention for that Congress- ional district, met at Cape Girardeau yester- day, and the Bentonites finding they were in a minority, withdrew and nominated Ben ton for Congress. The Convention nomi- mated Col. Louis V. Bogv as the regular Locofoco candidate, and passed resolutions deuouncng Benton as FreesoIer. So it seems the difficulties among the "harmoni- ous democracy" of Missouri are not yet settled, and Col. Benton will not be permit ted to ride over his Locofoco enemies rough shod without resistance On their part. Rich times ahead

PAINFUL CAsUALTY.-A gentleman resid-. ing near Sumptervil!e, Ala., being engaged few days since in planting in his garden the common yellow jasmine vine, he cut off some roots which he chanced to throw down, where two of his little children got hold of them. It is supposed that they chewed the roots, and swallowed the juice, as they both died in few hours. The jas mine vine is a most fatal poison. One of the children went from the garden into the house, and laying down near it's mother, fell into a slumber as she supposed. The fond mother found, however, some time after wards, on attempting to wake the child, that it was dead. The other was soon taken
 i'll, and all efforts to save it proved unavail-
 ing.

The Aeon ia was too light, and her chimnies too lofty, to enable her to pass under the bridge, and the Yorktown was too heavy, and drawing too much water. to work through the canal.
