Straight Zine Railroad.

Less than one year ago, this important pro-
iect, which is now SO near happy consum-
nation, was first put on foot, and its proPri-
ETY. and necessity published to this commu-
nifty by Willard Carpenter, Esq, through
the columns of the Journal. 1t was then re-
garded by many as visionary scheme for
promotion of private interests, and among
the impossibilities to accomplish in life
time.
Old Fogysm was we'll nigh frightened out
of its boots, at the startling announcement
that such q work was in actual contempla-
ton. The incipient steps were, however,
soon taken to bring the matter in proper
light before the public. The project was well
received, and the interest which our citizens
manifested toward it at first view, became
more and more increased, and their conf
dence in its Importance strengthened, in pro-
portion as its advantages were developed and
demonstrated by the original movers of the
enterprise. In the progress of the work to
its present condition, it has had very many
impediments to encounter and obstacles to
overcome, which would have caused men of
ordinary metal to abandon the work as hope
less long since. But with such men as Will
lard Carpenter at one end land Oliver H Smith
at the other, who know no such word as fail
in their undertakings, the Straight Line has
been brought to highly prosperous position,
and beyond any contingency of being de-
feated.
The letting of over one third of the who le
line takes place to-day isfathis city, aud the
work of construction will Immediately COM
mence. The Company, we are informed,
have already subscription list far above that
of roads generally at the time of letting, and
are almost daily making large accessions both
in cash and real estate subscriptions. The
best of feeling exists throughout the whole
community in favor of the road, and its pro.
jectors are now regarded by even those who
once opposed their movements, as public be-
nefactors, instead of "scheming spectators
engaged in building up private fortunes a,
public expense"
The Company have in their employ an eff.
cient corps of engineers, with Mr.. More, as
chief, whose Pre-eminent ability and long
experience warrants the stric.est economy
in that all-important branch of the work.
We shall have something to say upon this
subject in detail, after the letting, and doings

Congress to introduce his scheme OF Tonnage
Duties! We should like to see him introduce
a bill carrying out his views on that subject.
Probably he will do it-but most probably the
knowledge he doubtless has, as to which side
his political bread is buttered, will prevent
any such move.

1t will be remembered that this distinguished
the Papal Nuncio met with--not to
put too fine point upon 1t, rather harsh treat
ment, in various cities of the North and West.
From the best information, it appears that the
Nuncio is the victim of popular pfejudice'
having it is said, acted as agent in procuring
the execution of certain Italian macontents, at
Bologna, in Italy. Whether the Nuncio is gull
ty of completely in this affair or not the actions
of the mob cannot be too severely deprecated.
We have no right, says a cotemporary, to aveDge
them done anywhere, except according to law,
and hanging man in effigy, or hanging and
shooting him an propriG persona, is not accord
ing to any law, except very bad law-that of
passion, and very ignorant passion too
Thsquestion was brought up in the United
States Senate on the 23dult. Mr.. Cass offered a
resolution of inquiry touching the relation which
the Nuncio bears to this government. The
ground taken was that, if he came hither as an
ambassador from the Papal States, he is clothed
with the personal securities of the government
of the United States. That ne bears such a
character is shown by the debate, and the reso-
luton of Mr.. Cass was, we presume, only a
formal mode of bringing the subject before the
country.
Several Senators spoke on the resolution. Mr..
Cass its mover, said that he had investigated the
matter of the guilt of Mons. Bedini in the case
of the death of Bassi, and was satisfied that ne
was totally innocent of any part in it. He said
that this bad deed was an Austrian deed that
the soldiers of Austria had taken possession OF
Bologna, and set up therein military govern
ment. overthrowing all civilauthotity; and that
besides doing other terrible and illegal and nhu-
man acts. Senator Cass very earnestly condemn
ed the mob movements.
The resolution of Gen. Cass, after some oppo-
sition from Mr.. Weller, was finally adopted

American ChivaIry Abroad.

The statement that our minister 10 Spain and
his son had both challenged and fought duels--
the one with Spanish grandee, and the Other
with the ambassador of Francois undoubted-
ly correct. Young Soule, however, fought the
French ambassador and wounded him in the
knee but the wound was not dangerous. Il is
explicitly stated that there was nothing political
in the quarrel, il having risen in the manner al
first stated.
We presume our government will not partic-
ulary interfere in the affair. 1t is well enough
that the Spanish nobility should have little
touch of American quality, and especially it is
well that one of It's sprouts should be Chastised
for rudeness towards an American lady. Young
Soule's mother was spoken of slighnngy and
the offender not only received personal insult
at the moment, but got a shot in his knee subse
qnently. They are beginning to find out on the
other side that Americans are considerable pump

RsPoRT OF THE HowARD AssocIATIoN.-We
are indebted to Mr.. J. H. Lawrence, fora copy of
the report of this charitable Association, from
which we gather the following statements. The
toal receipts from the 18th of July last-on
which day the Association was regularly orga
nized for action, amounted in the aggregate to
S228 927 46; and that the sum expended from
the same date, is Sl59, 100 30; which together
with an approximated estimate of $1,000 90 for
outstanding debts, is SlGs,690 80, leaving bal
ance of $50. .237 Ii, of which $1,000 is vested
in mortgages on Real Estate, bearing 8 per cent
interest per snnum, and 10000 specially deposi-
ted in Rank, subject to draft, and bearing per
cont interest per annum.
