The Border Railroad,

We noticed. last week, that one of our
Senators, Hon. r. w. JOHNSON, had given
notice of his intention to Introduce into the
Senate of the United States, bill granting
the right of way and donation of the pub
lie lands, to aid in the construction Of Rail
Road from Shreveport. La. ria Washing
ton, Van Buren and Fort Smith, Arkansas,
and Springfield and Independence. Missouri,
to St. Josephs. The proposed road is
lengthy one, and passes through section of
country almost destitute of navigation facl-
lties.-a country capable of sustaining a
dense population, and one that would be set
tied with great rapidity if the proposed road
was built. The time. however, in our opin-
ion, for building this road has not yet arriv
ed. There are roads already projected in
this State. the speedy construction Of which,
would be of much greater importance not
only to this State, but to the whole Union,
than the proposed border road. and we would
prefer seeing them in greater state of
forwardness before we attempt to construct
others. With the different roads al
ready projected completed. the proposed
road might demand our serious attention,
but, with our present limited ability to con-
struct roads, we have already as many on
hand as We can complete in the next five or
ten years.
The people of this State are greatly in
debted to the exertions of Mr.. JOHNSON for
the donation of land to the Cairo & Fulton
road. and his renewed efforts to aid them
still further in the way of donations for In
ternal Improvement purposes, will place
them under additional obligations But, as
we remarked before, the time has not yet
arrived to undertake the construction of the
proposed Border road, which may, and
doubtless will. become of great Importance
when the country shall be developed by the
completion of the several roads and branch
es already projected. AT present, in our
opinion, an additional. as well as condition
al grant, to secure the location and construc-
tion of the Pacific road through this State
would have been Of much greater Importance
If. however, Mr. JOHNSON, with the COOP
Grafton of our other Senator, and the aid
of our Representatives, should succeed in
getting the bill passed. of which he has Civ
en- notice. it would be well enough, proba-
bly,. to insert proviso in the bill, granting
more time than is usually allowed in such
donations, for commencing and completing
the proposed road

Gen. Rusk will be at home about Christ
