WASHINGTON Tuesday. Dec. II, 1S52.
Solomon n. Downs, Of Louisiana, is here
and making interest for the vacant dyshP on tho
T. 8. Supreme Court bench.
The contract for timber for gun carriages
for the army is awarded 70 Fuller Chafee & Co.,
Springfield Mass: $4,000 feet from SIS to si3 per

Senator Underwood, of Kentucky, to-day
presented petition from ono McFarren, who was an
Assistant Commissary Of the Army in New-Mexico,
praying for relief under the following circumstances
McFsrren by virtue of his Office was to receive GER
tain boxes of specie from one Thomas, another As

counting till they tired, Thomas proposed to Nc
Farren to take the residue Of the boxes without count

amount turned out 81 265 short Upon this McFsrreo

r,,p p.CIYIC RaILROAD.

Our neichbor of The Times is rather aax-
ions about dreadful project of the French
70 prevent the construction Of the Pacihc
Railroad by getting possession OF the Mexican
rroyince of Sonora. Through that region,
down somewhere in latitude 35', The Times
eravely assures us is the only feasible hne Tor
the road. There the doughty Count Boalbon
having put the Mexican General Blanlsto OUT
il now entrenched, and there We may perhaps
expect Louis Napoleon 10 come to hsht Ms
orest decisiye battle for the annexation OF all
the universe to the Empire Franeais. AT any
rate the Yankees are to be kept down, and
their railroad is to be kept out of Sonora.
One reason given by the authority whom
The Times quotes for concluding that the road
can't be built through the United States is
that for several months in the year the South
Pass is closed Closed by what Way by
snow, Of course, and as there is no possibility
of clearing the snow off a railroad track,
it follows that we must go down to Mexico to
build it, where snow never falls. The writer
ought to have inferred also that it is impossi-
Bile to build railroad in Russia, New-Eng-
land, or Canada.
But, seriously speaking, there is one point
connected with the great subject Of the Pacific
Railroad which does not seem to be appreciated
by those who ought to be well informed on the
matter. We refer to the vast superiority Of
laying the work as far North .as possible in
order to secure the shortest route and the
quickest transit between Asia and Europe This
has been thoroughly expounded by Mr. Whit
ney in his pamphlet, and with globe any one
may verify his calculations in q few minutes.
| The nearer to the Pole you carry the line of
ommunicationbetween New-York and Canton,
for example, the shorter it will be. No rail-
road built across Mexico, or across the south
west territories of the United States, can COM
pete with the marine route by the Cape OF
Good Hope for the carrying trade between
Europe and Asia. This Northern line across
the United States could, if properly built and
managed. Besides, for the purpose OF firmly
uniting the Atlantic and Pacific States we need
a railroad across our own country, within our
own territory, and short enough to take pas
sengers from New-YOrk to San Francisco in
six or seven days. Tebuantepec, Nicaragua,
Panama, and whatever other route has been
tried or projected may be useful temporarily
but only the Northern line can permanently
accomplish the great ends of the Pacific Rail
road

inpsf Slavery has not prevented our rebuk-
ing Austrian cruelty and despotism in Hunga-
~, nor precluded our interceding for the Irish
Patriots exiled to Australia; and why should
the rule work but one wayl
The true course, it seems to us, would be
earnestly to read and frankly to respond to the
affectionate and Christian Appeal of the Brit
ish Ip1ies, and then suggest to them, in the
san IDLY spirit, the defects in their own
Social policy that seem to us deserving OF at
tention or correction And thus, by mutual
interchanges Of Christian admonitiOn, each
nation may be brought to see and correct
faults to which self-interest and familiarity had
blinded its governing classes, to the greater
diffusion of Justice, Virtue and Happiness.
This, we suggest, would be better answer to
the British Ladies than any display of unfeel-
ing smartness or disdainful levity. Mind
your own business has been the tavorire an
swer of tyrants and wrong-dcers in all ages
but, though it may have silenced some, we
never heard of its convincing any Indeed,we
think none ever resortcd to it who had any
thing better to offer.

THE MOCK FUNERAL EXPENSES
AGAIN.

Some of the bills for the late funeral pro-
cession, professedlyy to honor Daniel Webster,
have been presented, but as no money has
been appropriated they have not been paid,
neither can they be until one of thousands Of
dollars in lump is passed by the Common
Council.
Among the bills presented, the Undertaken
has one amounting to over eighteen hundred
dollars, and one of the items to make up that
sum is charge Of 5000 for the use of that
"rickety concern called funeral car. Now
what citizen doubts that the same parade
could have been gotten up by private indi-
vidual for as many hundreds as this cost thou
sands OF course no member of this an-
Common Council shares in these large ex-
pendtures; they make great show of indig-
nation at such an inshuation Yet the fees
of an Alderman must amount to large sum,
for We have known them, before they were
elected TO that Office, dodge in every possible
way to avoid their creditors, and could not
buy pound of butter or steak in their own
name but before six months in Office, they
were in the market purchasing Stocks and
real estate. Again we say the fees Of an Alder.
man of these DAYS are large.
