The Pacific Railroad.

Among the most interesting indica tions Of the
policy Of the Admiuistration which have been
disclosed during the tour to New York, we place
the remarks Of the Secretary Of War aud the
Secretary of the Treasury at The reception ira
PhiIadelphia. The Philadelphia American. whose
editor took part in the entertainment, in an arti-
Gle on the subject ola railroad to the Pacific says
The Government, through two Of It's princi
pal Secretaries. has declared in favor Of the un-
dertading as a work of national necessity, and it
has declared Oo in favor Of It's being coustruc-
ted, as Government work, BY the Government
No constitutional difficulties are apprehended 10
be in the way, no constitutional scruples appear
to be entertained the clause Is designated con
lerrlng the power under which it can be made
the surplus funds in the Treasury are pointed at
as available for the purpose, and as capable OF
being applied more beneficiaily in this mode than
In any other; and, accordingly we are justified
IN believing hat Gen. Pierce has determined TO
place the building Of the Pacific railroad at the
head OF the measures which are to constitute his
policy, and that he means TO secure foE bis Adj
ministration the glory of commencing the grand
est, as it is destined to prove the most benef-
cent work of internal improvement ever attemp-
ted by human hands. It was in his presence, and
therefore assuredly, with his previous knowledge
and full concurrence, that Col. Davis and Mr..
Guthrie gave utteTanCe TO words on the subject
which, we are sure, will be read with one senti-
ment Of pleasure throughout the entire length
and breadth of the United States"
The plan here indicated, CONTINUES the Mercury,)
it is we'll know to our readers, is the one which
this paper has always advocated from the COM
mencement of the discussion in the Senate last
winter. We advocated the measure as one of
plain necessity to the protection Of the Pacific
region, and its construction by the Government
as the constitutional and proper mode Of reali-
zing the object. We rejoice to see that the Ad-
ministration has taken this view Of a question
likely to have so great place in the practical
politics OF the next four years. Col. Davis
views are so exactly our own. 50 well expressed
and so significant of settled policy that we.
quote them at some length

GAPEs IN CHIeKENs.-A correspondent of the
PIow, the Loom, and the Anvil, furnishes the
following communication for late number Of
that paper:
Il propose from thirty years experience to
give the cause and prevention of gapes. The
cause is found in the habit Of keeping male chick
ens from year to year in the same flock OF hens
.Theii successors are selected from the same hock
until the chickens become feeble, and one OF the
sad effects is lhe gapes To effectually prevent
their occurrence, select males from flock from
which there have not been crosses. Having re-
nooved an of your own, repeat this every year,
and NV word for it you will not need cure for
|gapes. The same is true Of turkeys

As the time for operation will soon be here,
we insert the following, which we copy from
..Kendrick's Work on Orcharding" and COM
mend it to the attention Of all desiring informa-
tion on the subject, as about the best directions
that can be given. and if properly followed, will
result in uniform success. In cases Of failure
the operator must blame himself, and not the
the directions
''Inoculating is tue operation Of transferring
any desirable variety of tree upon the stock Of
an inferior wild variety The operation is prin-
cpally practiced on small trees, and only during
the time the sap flows freely, and chiefly during
the months of August and September. Select
for the buds the ripest young twigs Of the pres
ent year. and cut off the leaves, leaving tie
footstalk entire. Having selected Rsmooth place
in the stock, make a perpendicular slit down
ward, quite through the bark an inch or a little
more in length Make a cross cut at the top Of
this slit quite through to the wood, little slant
ing downward; next, with the ivory haft Of The
budding knife, raise the bark on both sides from
top to bottom, being very careful not to iniure
in the least the cambium or sap wood Next,
and with expedition, proceed TO take off bud.
This is effected by entering the knife little
more than half an inch below the bud or eye,
quite through the bark, and separating the bark
from the wood to the same distance above the
eye, always leaving very thin slip Of wood Of
about one-third Of the length Of the bud this
thin slip Of wood occupies the middle section Of
its length The bud is to be inserted in the
stock TO the bottom Of the slit, and between the
bark and wood and the top Of the bud being
squared even with the. cross cut every part ex-
cept the eye is firmly bound, and covered with
strong wet bass string or mating

HAPPILY REsToRED.-We learn from reliable
source, that as a married couple were travelling
on a steamboat. bound from New Orleans to an
up stream port, the man sickened and died.
When the boat touched at this point, the bereav-
ed and distressed widow landed here with the
corpse, an undertaken was sent for, who came
and took the measure for coffin. The coffin
was prepared, the body deposited therein, and
all was in readiness to take the mortal remains
of that dear husband to its last, final resting
place. The lady, with all the fond affection and
deep love OF wife, begged the privilege of ia
king one more look, last parting kiss, on him
who was more dear to her than all others upon
earth The lid was taken off, and as she laid
upon that cold, icy brow, bathing it in tears,
and smolhering those cold icy lips with warm
kisses, a sort of consciousness and symptoms Of
life became apparent, the body was taken from
the coffin, and physician sent for. Our tale is
soon told. The man soon became convalescent
and but few days since the happy couple tooi
passage from here on an upstream boat, and art
now en- route for their place of destination
But for that fond, loving wife, the husband
might now be lying in cold, damp grave.

TIE PREs1DENr WITHOUT SHILLING. The
Washington Star is responsible for the following.
Not long since, the President in an afternoon
ride with his estimable lady and female friend.
was brought up by the gate upon the Columbia
Turnpike, on the opposite side Of the Potomac.
His coachman searched his pockets in vain for
the requisite shilling The President searched
his. But, alas, not solitary shilling had they
among them! The toll -gatherer, who isat times
annoyed by the pranks Of the 6 fast" toiks pass
ing his gate on their way to the trotting course
without " holding up" to pay toll, began TO
think of closing the bar upon the carriage when
the driver informed him that the gentleman M
side was the President of the United States and
the gentleman inside made it all right by prom
ising to pay the shilling when next he should
venture to ride on the Virginia side.

What will they say2' They will say what

do right, and if you do right, some will say you

every one sees through the spectacles of partic-

the striking winds. We scorn the lettering

frogs. and nod among the mushrooms when you
are tired. We respect the man who stands proud
and firm, as though he was con mplating the
sun--the man whose step seems command

What will they say % Let them say what they
