The Pacific Bail ROad-WiIl it come 10
Puget Sound!

We argue that II will, and are confident
that we have the very best Of reasons for
thinking SO. The impregnable barriers
that forbid all approach 10 California lrom
the Eastward, except by making an eXten-
siye and expensive circuit, will at once deny
her hight and give 4 check to the assump-
ton and auiocratic greediness Of the mag
nihceut paupcr. The light Of truth has
burst upon the nation, and the golden car
Of juggernaut ceases its destruction Of inno-
cent worshipers and victims. California,
loaded with her false pretensions, cannot,
WILL NOT override the just claims of her
better featured and more deserving neigh
Dor" In addition to tue impraclicability of
the route lhther, lis very centrality will be
a means of defeating it. A route so central
must give great dissatisfaction to both north
and south. In the event Of the California
route being adopted, the first step towards a
dreaded political Capitalization will be taken
Then the extremes Of the country will be
mere tributaries to the wealth, strength,
splendor and influence of the central power,
and the north and south may each with
meek resignation pronounce Farewell,
long farewell to all my greatness !"
Aner ascertaining the feasibility Of the
several routes, and California being lefl out
of the case, the question to be met will be,
shall the road be made at the north or at the
south ? Now surely the Sagaeious south
must perceive that by throwing its weight
into the scale in favor Of the extreme north
ern road 10 Puget Sound, it will thereby in
crease the force Of its future demand for an
extreme southern road-after another ac-
quisiIion of Mexican territory shall have
been obtained. The northern road should
and tViA connect Halifax, N. s., Boston,
Chicago, &C., with Puget Sound. And the
southern route should, and in our opinion
will, link New ORLEANS, through the rich and
delightful Durango country, with Mazatlan.
That these will be the results of the present
contentious, we venture 10 predict, and be-
lieying the benefits therefrom will be inf
nitely greater to both north and south than
can possibly be the case If any other policy
be pursued, we throw forth our views and
invite the south to consider them. Let the
extremes harmoniSe and obtain justice for
themselves without any regard for the glut-
tony Of the aggrandizing centre.

The Cascade Road.

GENUINE LfBERALITY.-Captain LAFA-
rETTE BALcH, the enierPrising proprietor
Of S,eilaeOOm, has contributed one hundred
dollars in money towards the road 10 Wslla-
Walla. To each and every man who start
cd from that neighborhood to work on the
road, Capt BALcH gives LOT in the town
Of Steilacoom. He is security TO the Uni
ted Staies' Government for number Of
mules, pack saddles, and other articles need
CD by the men. He furnished the outfit for
the company who started from that place
with Mr.. E. J. ALLEN, al just what the ar
tcles cost in San Francisco. We also learn
that Capt. B. proposes TO contribute more
money, provided the cost Of completing the
road should exceed the amount raised for
the purpose. Capt. B.'s liberality is worthy
Of commendalion, for which we hope the
future may bring him in return a golden
harvest and in all matters of public enter
prise that may offer hereafter, we would
suggest to those who have the ichererith,
that it may be 10 their advantage 10 initiate
the capital example set them by Captain
BALCH.

Instructions To OUR REPRESENTATIVES,
ABRoAD.-Hon. VIM. L. Marcy, Secretary
of State, has issued instructions to our di-
plomatc and consular agents abroad, intend
ed to effect certain important reforms in
those branches Of the public service. Here
after our foreign ministers are 10 transact
their own business, and not transfer to their
secretaries the onus and responsibilities Of
official signatures. For the future all our
foreign legations arc ordered 10 be opened
every day, except Sundays, from 9 A. N. to
3 P. NJ, for tho accommodation of Ameri-
can citizens, and American passports are 10
vised gratis at the American legations, in all
places where there is one. All fees paid al
a consulate are 10 be reported at the Stale
Department, under a penalty of dismissal
from Office. The secretary has also abolish
ed consular and diplomatic uniforms, in all
cases where they can be dispensed with.-
American ministers must appear at foreign
courts in the simple dress Of an American
citizen, where they can do so without i'm
pairing their usefulness.
"The simplicity Of our usages and the
tone of feeling among our people, says the
Secretary, " is much more in accordance
with the example of our first and most dis
linguished representatives at a royal court,
than the practice which has since prevail
cd. " No ono but an American is to be
hereafter allowed 10 act as Secretary of Le-
CATION and in this connection Mr.. Marcy
remarks:
"The correspondence between the Gov,
ernment aud the legations Of the United
States must be guarded with the utmost Sc
cresy, even as relates to our own citizens
To submit it 10 the examination Of for
eigner will be regarded as an indiscTetion in
the offender demanding immediate depriya
ton of office The first duty of a subject
is considered 10 be fidelity to his sovereign
Foreign clerks may justly be regarded as
unsafe repositories Of the secrets Of our di-
plomacy in the legation where they are en-
ployed. The possibility that revelation of
our secret State papers may occur in this
manner, is sufficient to excite fears on the
subject, and require the strict observance Of
the above instructions.

New ARRANGEMENT can now in
form our readers of the completion of an
arrangement by which means we shall in
future give the latest news from all parts Of
the world in advance of the mail.
With this gratifying intelligence, we
would say that instead Of throwing away
money upon papers published in the States,
and which are not apt TO come regularly, If
they come at all,--lhe Columbian should be
taken by every man in the Territory Of
Washington, who desires to keep himself
posted up" We know Of but one or
two who read our paper lrifhom paying for
Il, and they are welcome to continue the in
diligence. We have no wish to handle
money that may bring contagion and is ever
the companion Of loatbsomc disease and con-
victed dishonesty.
The great value Of our paper 10 the en-
tire Territory is admitted by all for whose
opinion we have any respect. Every day
brings us not only new evidences of the pop
ular satisfaction, but the names and dollars
Of new subscribers, and We now invite our
Giends everywhere TO obtain for US an in
crease Of patronage, so that we may be en-
iblcd to extend our efforts to make our pa

The London Times, in alIudmg to China
affairs and the Japan expedition, has the fol-
lowing: alt is rather suspicious circum-
stance that just now, when their very smart
missionaries have given the Americans more
intelligence Of the nature and progress of the
rebellion than our British representative and
merchants were ever likely to do, that they
have in those waters the largest armament
ever seen in the East under their flag. What
if the army, apparently intended for the
chastisement Of Japan and the opening of
Jeddo, should really have another object
to hold the balance of Chinese parties, and
10 slip in at the right moment and grasp the

the capture of two of the best of the Buenos

only II were reported killed, with part of
the Buenos Ayreans. 1t was reported that
Buenos Ayres had accepted the mediation
Of the Brazilian and Bolivian Ministers, with
the desire to bring the difficulty to an ac.
