Union's views upon the Pacific Railroad
project, republishing the article on the
subject sometime since appearing in that
paper, with an intimation that it does so
| in order to pin the Administration just
where the editor (of the Intelhgencer) de-
sires to have them. The Intelligencer
also republishes articles from the Union
and the Lancaster Intell,geneer, explana-
tory of what was recently thought to be
the misunderstanding between Mr.. Blu
chanan and the Administration relative
to the English mission, which, by the by,
show that there really was no Interrupt
ton of harmony between them. The
same paper contains letter from its
Paris correspondent; and another from B.
F. sherwood, Esq, United States Naval
Engineer, in defence of the Princeton's
boilers, which were constructed under
his advice; and also various other papers
OF interest.
The Union officially announces the in
tended speedy departure ofDon Calderon
de la Barca for Spain, to become Minister
of Foreign Affairs there. Mr.. Calderon
will bear from Washington the regrets of
its inhabitants without distinction of party
or class. During the many years Of his
official residence in Washington, he has
made no personal enemies, and has actu-
ally succeeded in securing for his Gov
eminent through the universal kind regard
felt for him, consideration in the popular
mind here, which is astonishing when one
reflects upon the character of it's institu-
tons. 1t will be long, we presume, ere
another despotic Government will have at
this point representative so well calcu-
lated as MIR. G. SO favorably to impress
an American community.
The Union comes to us this morning
embracing second powerful article upon
the Pacific railroad question. Having
previously disposed of the constitutional
question to his apparent satisfaction, the
editor approaches the other obstacles to
the scheme, which in his judgement are !:
First-jealousies concerning the location,
with reference to its effect upon the value
of property through which it may run.
Second danger to arise from sectional
jealousy to be manifested in considering
and deciding on the best possible route :;
and, last, the question of the manner in
which the Government shall aid the un-
dertaking. That is; whether by con-
structing it with money from the Treasu-
ry, or by the applications of portions of
the public domain, and also whether it
shall be built by the Government, or by
a private company or companies to whom
the Government shall furnish means for
its construction. The Editor very proper
ly explains all these difficulties in detail,
and urges Congress to come next winter
to the consideration of the subject in such
frame OF mind, as will obviate them,
one and all, as far as possible.
The Republic emphatically endorses the
conduct Of Captain Ingraham in the re-
cent Costa affair, occurring in the harbor
of Smyrna. The same paper discusses
the wonderful progress of the Anglo-Sax-
on race on the Pacific and it's shores.
The Clipper deprecates the bad effects
of such squabbles as that lately raging in
Baltimore concerning Blind Johnny"
The editor, in this short article, writes
evidently without the fear of the propri-
etors in his minds eye. 1t is Connolly's
own-full of his generous and just senti-
ments-rather than of the Jealous and
jealous sectarianism which has so long
stained the columns Of that paper.
The Sun discusses fogging in the Ma
Wy, congratulating the world that it has
been finally abolished in the American
service, and taking to itself credit for
in part bringing about this result.
IMPROVEMENT OF THE CENTRE MARKET.
Much impotence is being manifested con-
corning the progress of the scheme for
the reconstruction of the Centre Market
House, which appears to lag, if public
opinion is correct. No other improve
ment is so much wanted in Washington
Just now, the accommodations both for
buyers and sellers in that, our only ex.
