A Highway to the Pacific,

We some days since received copy of PAM
phlet entitled a Few Remarks on "a Railroad
to the Pacific" by member ofthe Philadelph-
ia Bar. The subject is treated with much abil-
ity and many interesting facts are stated. Sew
eral passages are quite eloquent. After re-
viewing the whole ground. the writer gives the
subjoined as demonstrated truths, in the con-
tingency OF the successful construc ton ofa great
highway to the Pacific:

monopoly of the Chinese and japanese markets.
2. Besides the Mails OF this continent. those OF
all Europe, for all parts of Eastern. Middle and

4. Al the travel ofEurope for the larger por-

with bread the crowded population Of Europe
and Asia.
7. 1t will largely increase the business Of all
railroads running through the States, from the
main trunk to any Atlantic seaport.
s. 1t will employ, during the years consumed
in building it, thousands OF our laboring people
in healthy climate. and will offer facilities to
emigration. and will be the means of carrying
population TO our territories. and of creating
new and happy States i'll the vast wilderness Of
the Continent.
9. 1t will be mighty bond Of union, Of safe
