The ATLANTIC AND Pacific RALRoAD.-The
National Democrat of this city, in attempting
to initiate the extreme doctrine of the South
Carolina hair-splitters of the constitution, labors
hard to make out a case of unconstitutionality
against the plan Of the New York organization
for the construction Of railroad to the Pacific
ocean. 1t ncglects, however, to cite the very
clause OF the constitution bearing directly upon
the subject. Here it ie =
Section S-The Congress shall have power to lay
and collect taxes &c. &c; to establish post offices
and post roads, &C.; and to make all laws which
shall be necessary and proper for carrying into exc
cution the foregoing powers, &c.
This covers the whole ground. The power to
establish post road and to make all laws ne
cessary to give that power full effect, is all that
can be desired. We want post road OF iron to
the Pacific ocean. Congress has the power to

friends Of the scheme the passage of a law pro-

routes to the Pacific, from the South Pass to.the

Mexico If no more can be done. the prelimi-

The HONDURAS BRITISH CoLoNY-THE CLAY
TON AND BULwER TREATY.-The news which
we published from our San Juan correspondent
yesterday, of the formal establishment of Bri-
fish colony in what is sometimes known as Bri-
fish Honduras, is well calculated to set the
champions of the Monroe doctrine in Congress
to hard thinking. We are the more inclined to
give full credit to our correspondent from the
fact that General Pierce is expected to play a
totally different game upon our foreign rela-
tions to that which has characterized the
melancholy neutrality of President Fillmore,
and that England may have considered it her
safest policy to make bold push while yet the
door of our neutrality is open. Had she waited
month or two longer, Honduras might, per-
haps, have been lost to her forever. This Bri-
fish Honduras, ESQ styled from the right to cut
logwood extended into a usurpation Of the ter
ritory,) lies next to Yucatan, and in military
view, with the Bay of Honduras and the Bay
Islands, (anotLer new British colony commands
the outlet of the Gulf of Mexico into the Car
ribbean sea. We have had good deal of gas
and flbustering in the Senate upon this bust
ness, and now we should like to know what is
to be done. What says Gen. Cass? There is
every reason to believe our correspondent is
correct. What says Mr.. Soule? What says
Mr.. Mason? Let us hear.

SENATOR EvERErr.-The speech delivered

SEFAToR EvERETr.-The speech delivered
a few days ago by Mr.. Everett upon the Cen
trail American question, has placed him in a
commanding position in the Chamber. But
the Difference with which ne was listened to
as an authority rather than as co-equal de-
batter, does not surprise us. And whyi-
Simply because Dir. Everett entered the SEN
ate and argued the question like statesman.
Iii a pity that this valuable quality-sta.es
ma notwithstanding such curiosity in cur
delberative assemblies, that it strikes their
members dumb. The public men of Ameri-
ca who came upon the stage within the last
twenty-five years, have been so stained with
party politics at home, that when they rise to
address their colleagues, they are denied the
attentive confidence to which they are proba-
bly, entitled. But Mr.. Everett is not of this
class. The world is quite aware that he has
always voted with the Wings; yet the world
has never been degraded by him into political
servility. At home and abroad he is recog-
nized as the accomplished scholastic ma
tional hearted American Ambassador,--the
Industrious Representative,-theEc Minis
ter of .State,-the self-s crifcing College
President, who was always ready with his
learning and eloquence to charm lecture
room or enlighten Senate.
These habits Of thouroughness in the per-
Torrance of his duties, have been the sour
ces of Mr.. Everett's power. Men rely on
him. No one ever dreamed that he would
trim to the wind, or swerve from the right
for the rewards Of authority. Office has
sought him. In all his writings and speeches
he is the uncompromising enemy of exagera-
ton and over-statement. True moderation
balanced his judgement. Noris the charac-
ter of his style different from that of his log
ic. What Pope was in poetry, Everett is in
eloquence; profound sense is ever adorned
and illustrated by the most graceful fancy.

A GREAT GAMBLING CAsE.-A highly i'm
portant gambling case was recently brought
before Judge Stuart, at the Second District
Police Court A gentleman residing in the
city OF Washington, ID. G., named Henry p.
Van Bibber, appeared before that magistrate
on the LIST inst, and made an affidavit touch
ing gambling transaction, in which he was
victmized by the operations of Faro Bank.
The sum which he lost was $500 in hard
cash, and o check on the "Bank of America"
for $500. He was laboring at the time un-
der the influence of drugged liquor. After
thus losing $500, Mr.. Van Bibber thinks that
his mind must have wandered, as he does not
recolect what happened. He proceeded on
the next day to Washington, and thther the
gamblers followed him and demanded pay
ment of $500 on the "Bank of America" at
the same time presenting a check to that
amount. which he had signed. Of the act of
signing, however, he had no recollection, and
he refused to pay. One of the gamblers then
exposed the whole circumstance in a letter
to his wife. The insult prompted him to re-
turn to this city and prosecute the affair.
The Justice issued his warrant for the ar
rest of the accused parties, and all of them
were taken into custody and held to bail in
the sum of $500 each.

An election was held yesterday for d.
rectors of the Northern Plank Road Compa-
ny, in pursuance of the notice published in
this paper. Messrs. James Laughlin, Jr.,
James G. Jones and John Paine were elect
ed directors. The enterprise has been COM
menced in the right spirit and there can be
no doubt of success. The whole amount
of stock necessary to complete the road and
furnish toll houses, has been taken by men
who can and will pay promptly. Contractors
will not be asked to receive any thing but
cash and they may confidently expect to get
it when it is due.

0fneers OF Boats acting ~ Ferwarders.
As practice seems to be growing 10 on
the Western waters, by which the officers of
boats carrying freight undertake to ship for
ward, at the end of their run-as for in
stance, goods shipped at New Orleans on a
st. Louis boat, for Galena-the effect Is held
the officers of the st. Louis boat bound to re-
ship at ST., Louis on boat for Galena, free of
cost. This is complained of as an unusual
course, calculated to produce great inconveni-
ency to the carrier, and to impose upon him
burdensome and improper applications. The
complaints are plausible, if not well founded.
But the carrier, unless he agrees to render
this service, is bound as carrier under an
ordinary bill of lading, to discharge this duty,
unless he takes the freight to carry to its ul-
innate destination; and in that case, he re-
ships at his own risk and expense, which he
should cover by his charges for freight.

We have just been shown, and to some
extent have examined this truly beautiful and
graphic map of our iourishing state. We
have seen many commendatory notices in
our exchanges of the new map of Indiana,
which we deemed at the time to embrace all
that could be said in their favor. We con-
fess however, that since we have seen them
for ourselves, we have "erred" in that con-
clusion.
We have examined local and general maps
without number, but no map have we ever
seen shat could bear fitting comparison
with this new map of our favored State.
Mr.. Colton's first sectional map of our
State was admitted to be the best, the very
best in its day, but the present one, showing
as it does, with such faithfulness the numer-
Gus and varied improvements which have
been going on since the closing issue of the
map Of 80 up to the end of the year 81, in
arrangement, accuracy and general execu-
ton is greatly its superior. Weview it with
out a parallel. Exhibiting as it does, the
commercial facilities growing out of our va
ried internal improvements, with the numer-
Gus new towns which magic like have sprung
into recent existence and business impor-
lance. The almost endless water courses,
the mills. and other elements of the great
ness of our State are so faithfully laid down
so perfectly daguerreotyred that the world
abroad who see Indiana go faithfully repre-
scented evil see to admire"
We conceive these works better calculated
to advance her interests than any heretofore
issued.

mense expense, and we hope the enterprizne

ana will not appreciate his labors.

George Morrow, blacksmith residing in
Hickman county, being under the influence
of liquor ordered his son, Harry Morrow,
youth about seventeen years of age to leave

Grace Greenwood tells very good story,
Illustrative of that maxim, in one of her late
letters from Rome:
"As Miss H. and Miss C.. came in from
riding, short time ago, they spoke of having
met the Pope on the Porta Angelica road,
and OF having dismounted before he passed
What, you pay such homage to the Pope!
exclaimed. Why notp said Miss H. The
worthy old gentleman was on foot, and all
the Catholics in his way were on their knees;
The guard would have commanded us to dis
mount, if we had not done SO of our own ac-
cord.' 81 would have turned and galloped
back, or leaped the hedge and taken across
gusrdsmen pulled me off!-anything to save
my pride as republican and protestant
This said walking the room, setting my
foot down each time emphatically and anti
Papally. A few days after this, as was rid
ing with Miss C. on this same road, we saw
the Pope approaching. He was walking in
front of his carriage. dressed in white, with a
red hat and red shoes, preceded by mounted
guards, accompanied by several cardinals,
and followed by officers of his household and
carriages. We were near an open space and
drew little off from the road, but still in full
sight of the procession. One of the Guardia
Mobile rode slowly by, giving US as he passed
look of pious anger and rebuke, as much
as to say: 'Frail vessels of heresy. will We
then brave the Holy See itself!' Now, if a
bluff Swiss guardsman had ordered me to dis
mount, should have sat firmly in my saddle
and my sentiments, and looked at my perse-
cutor with much the feeling expressed by the
spirited Mrs. Squeers, i pities your ignor-
ance and dispises you.' But to be looked at
with such silent severity-to be thought
wanting in manners and religion by a noble
young Roman, was, must confess, quite an
other thing. Immediately remarked that
thought change Of position would do me
good after so long a ride, and that really
wished to get nearer view of the Pope. So
we dismounted, and giving our horses to the
groom, approached to the edge Of the bank,
over the road, where we should have had a
very .iear look at his Holiness, and received
the full force of the Papal benc diction. But,
when only within twenty yards Of Us, the
provoking Papa paused, turned, remounted
into his carriage. and drove back towards the
Vatican. The quizzical look of the noble
guardsman, as he repassed us, and the laugh
raised against me at dinner, are two things
which lshall not soon forget"

land Strait Line Railroad Company.

Granville, indianapolis and Glove.
land Strait Line Railroad Company.
1t will be seen by reference to the pro-
ceedings o. meeting recently held at Indi-
annapolis, in another column, that company
has been organized under the above title
for the purpose OF constructing Strait line
road from this city to Indianapolis. thence to
the town of Union in Randolph county,
bordering on the Eastern line of the State,
and connecting with line already in oPe-
ration to Cleveland Ohio. 1t will be readi-
ly seen that the proposed extension of the
road beyond indianapolis, greatly enhances
the importance of the project, and makes it
at once the GREAT DIRECT TRUNK LINE, to
the lowest point on the Ohio river having
any connection with roads leading to the
Atlantic cities. The company adopted the
gauge of the Ohio roads, several Of which
terminate at Unions so as to admit the running
of cars direct from Cleveland to Evansville.
This will be the only road in Indiana, having
the gauge of the Ohio roadA, and the
slightest observation will convince all oil
the immense Importance of this feature of
the road, securing as it does an unbroken
line from the Lake, and Northern Ohio, Over
which loaded trains may run without change
or reshipment. The best spirit prevailed at
the meeting, and the amount of stock neces-
sary to the organization of company, under
the General Law, was at once taken. We
notice two subscriptions of $40, 900 each.
Hon. Willard Carpenter, informed us that
the people interested in the Ohio roads ter.
minating at Union, view the project with
great favor, as an enterprise equally impor-
tant to their Railroad interests, as to those oil
of our own State. In the temporary board Of
directors chosen, our citizens will recognize
the names of several of our most enterprising
citizens of the State, and with such men
as Carpenter of our city, and Smith of India.
naPols, Qate President of the Bellefontaine
road) there is no such thing as fail. Our
space to-day, forbids us extending our re-
marks, but we shall endeavor Immediately
to place this important matter before our
readers 10 its true light.
