MR.. RICHARDSON'S NOTICE.

The Philadelphia National Argus, in refer
ence to the notice given by Mr. Richardson, in
the House Of Rerresentatves-tha he should
early ne 1t week move to take up the Nebraska
Kansa bill, and press it TO vote, after reason
able time for further dscussion-weu remarks:
This announcement is both proper and
judicious, as it gives full opportunity for mem
5ers to be prepared to vote when the measure is
brought before the House for final action.
There is no utility in further delaying the bill
for granting territorial governments 10 tn port
ion OF the public domain. All the arguments
against the bill prepared by Judge Douol..,,
have been exhausted, a;,a i me whole opposition
Is now dishonist, factious one, headed by the
abolitionists, ard such Of the wings and free.
sellers as are willing to be their dupes and fol-
lowers in the mad attempt to overthrow the prin-
ciple on which our form Of government rests
This is the shape in which the oposition to the
Nebraska bill row presents itself in Congress;
and, therefore, Mr. Richardson's notice. that
further delay will not be granted for Matching
treason against the government, will meet with
the heartily response Of the democracy in all
parts of the Union. All that now remains to be
done is to close the ranks Of the republican party
and nobly vindicste the devotion Of the demo-
cracy to the principles of self.government by
passing the Nebraska bill whenever it IS
reached"

SOUTHERN WISCONSIN RAILROAD Col.
Hugh Lee, Chief engineer of the s. w. r. r
returned to this place on Thursday last from a
reconnaissance of the country bordering on the
Mississippi; having, very fortunately, discover
ed and surveyed a new line-commencing at a
point on the old line near the northeast corner
OF the township of Jamestown, in Grant county,
and running west across several ridges Of easy
grade, until the new survey reaches what il
locally known a. Scofield Hollow-leadinp
down into the valley of Indian Creek-which
stream empties into the Little Platte River near
lis junction with the Mississippi river. What is
the most remarkable in this new survey, will be
received with degree Of incredibly BY many
who have deemed it literally impossible 10 reach
the Mississippi without an extravagant outlay of
money in grading the road within three to five
miles east Of the river. This opinion is proved
by this survey to have been erroneous On the
Sinipee route. the estimates tor grading were
one hundred thousand dollars a mile, for
three miles, through heavy rock cut On the
route down Indian Creek, this expense is re-
duced at least ~ per cent.-a difference Of
more than two hundred thousand dollars saved
in reaching the Mississippi river by this new
survey. The stockholders and friends of the
road, may we'll feel elated under this new state
OF facts. The people in the west are thorough.
ly alive and deeply interested in the work The
citizens of Potosi feel confident n0p in a con-
nection with eastern Wisconsin by means of the
S. w. R. R.
Under the new arrangement with Milwaukee
which will be undoubtedly perfected at the
next meeting Of the Board of Diractors--the
work will be forwarded with reasonable dispatch.
