Its Of the Eastern and Western markets, referred to
those OF who have tried buying East have
compared the goods at home on their counters, with
goods bought in Sc Louis, and who buy only here.
Merchants who have not visited St. Louis, perhaps,
imagine that business cannot be sufficiently extended here
to justify small profits. To such would that but
few obbng houses East have larger business than

ued to reduce the profits until they now amount only to
commission.

The Pacific Routes.

We have already presented to our readers
several plans for constructing railroad
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and called
particular attention to that drawn up by
lion r. NJ. Price, member from New jersey.
The Tehauntepec route is now under dis
cussion in the Senate, and able speeches
have been made upon it by Messrs. Mason,
of Va, and Downs of La
1t is stated by the friends of this route
that it will lesson greatly the cost Of mail
transportation, because the mail being al
ready paid for through the United States
to New Orleans, Mobile, and Pensacola.
and provided for across the Gulf of Mexico
to Vera Cruz, the whole coast mail line
from New York around to the point of in
tersection, off Tehauntepec, would be Saved.
The adoption Of route comparatively
domestic would diminish greatly the tenden-
cy to collision between our citizens and the
punctilious authorities Of the European de-
pendences in the West Indies.
The saving on interest and insurance
upon the precious metals, would constitute
another principle object of advantage,
whilst the reduction of fares, the promotion
of health and comfort to the immense num-
Der of persons annually passing between
the Atlantic and the Pacific States, all de-
mand the earnest consideration of the gov
eminent.
1t is therefore obvious that the effect of o
free way of communication for the citizens
OF the United States across the Isthmus of
Tehauntepec, would be to shorten the time,
reduce the coast and increase the comfort,
OF their intercourse with the prosperous and
expanding States of the Pacific; and if the
subject has been placed in point of view
which it merits, it is obvious that the Amer
lean people are far more interested in Sc
curing the right of free passage across the
Isthmus of Tehauntepec than the propric-
tors of this Garay grant.
hG- To Joe Shillington are we indebted
for the February No. Of the Kn;chev5oohev.

ton between the timing and mum sering, and
the movement of the ply steal parts EN-
ployed at the transmitting station in so
timing and numbering, and also q CORES
ponding relation between the movement of
such part and the movement of the part OF
Mereceiuing station. To the end of transmitting
the result of such timing and numbering to
the record in characters of determined mag
nitude and number The motion adopted
and selected for this was reciprocating, and
this, as yet, was but the spirit without the
body-the particular kind of machinery not
yet being involved The next was the pro-
per relation between this corresponding re-
ciprocating motion at the two stations, and
q motion of the material to receive the re-
cord. 10 the end that this timing and num-
bering of the pulsations of the current per-
formed at the transmitting station, and
recapitulated by corresponding recipro-
eating motion at the receiving station should
be recorded and represented on suitable
material at the transmitting station, in the
magnitude and number of the characters,
this peculiar mode of operating was neccs-
sary. The motion necessary for working
was what was known as uniform motion,
with a variety Of combinations. The learned
counsel gave very elaborate and detailed
account Of the manner in which these COM
binations were produced so as to secure the
end designed, and concluded long and ex-
trene]y powerful argument on behalf of his
client, Mr.. Morse.
