This great undertaking is now before Con-
gress in a tangible form. Mr.. SEWARD on
Tuesday introduced a bill for it's construction,
of which the leading features are as follows.
1t throws opon the building of the road to
any company chartered by any State, the job
to be given to the company which will do it
with the least aid from the Government
That aid to be afforded in per cent stock,
redeemable after 20 years at the pleasure Of
the Govcrnmcnt-the company to own and
manage the road on condition that the Gov
eminent may take possession of it at any time
by paying the company it's expenditure upon
the road, with 10 per cent. interest on the in
vestment and that congress may control the
fares 50 far as to keep the net income down
to 10 per cent.
The Company undertaking the construc-
ton of the road, are to lodge five millions of
dollars in the hands of the Government, in
the form of State or government Stocks by
way of security for the fulillment of it's con-
tract.
No grants of land arc to be made to the
Company beyond II strip sufficient for road

" A Happy New Years.

Since our last issue tho old year has been
gathered to Its fathers, and the new COM
menccd its flight. We cordially wish that
for each and all of our readers 1t may DO ga
happy New Year.
"a HAPPY New YEAR, how broad and
pleasant a wish for good is implied in that
phrase 1t is not a happy new years day,
that is wished, but that the whole year, which
begins its round at this time may be fraught
with health, peace, plenty, good will, and all
desirable comforts of body and soul for those
to whom the wish is expressed,
We should be guilty of the deep sin of in
gratitude towards God who gives us, undc-
served on our part, all the blessings which we
enjoy, and from whom alone can flow to our
friends thosc blessings which we wish them to
possess, were we to forget our obligations to
Him for the numbcrlcss blessings of the past
year which have fallen to our lot. Trials and
calamities of sickness and death have indeed
befallcn some OF our families, but, as a commu-
nifty, we ought to feel that the Providence of
God has been over us for good during the past
year. No wasting disease has prevailed in
our borders. Our dwellings have been spared
from the fire which has spread destruction in
so many other places. The season has been
propitious, and quiet and steady prosperity
has been found prevailing throughout our
State.
We ought to show our thankfulncss for the
year past, by an earnest and hearty dctcrmi-
nation to make, for the year to come, a better
use of our blessings than We ever have done
We do well to remember that we have reason
to distrust the sincerity of our feelings, if their
manifestations are confined to the bare express
sions of our lips, Pleasant as good words are
we owe something more than good words tc
all around us We owe our influence for theil
good. We owe our efforts to promote their
comfort wherever there is a need. We owe
gifts to others than our special and favored
friends. We should try &c raise the bowed
down,-to encourage the weary and faint
hearted Ito assist the weak to comfort tho
afflicted to instruct the ignorant to give
protection, counsel and effcctua help to TIC
I POOR, the WIDOW ana the orphan, wherever We
can find them, Whatever be their position ir
icty,-whatcvcr be thoir name their cha-
actcr, their religion, or their nation. AS We
begin the year with wishing it to be happy
for all, so may we be able to say when it il
ended, that ALL who have come within oul
reach, have had, in some degree, their harpi
ness promoted by means of our influence anc
our acts.

Our New Years Present,
IFrom tho Burlington Couricr.l

THE FREE Press AND WoMAN's RIGnTs -
Since last Spring, soon after Mrs. Nichols
lecture here, We have said scarce any thing
to our ncighbors over the way on this subject
And for good reason. That paper has never
attempted even an answer to our arguments
presented at the time referred to- On the
contrary, it has resorted to sneering and rldi-
Gale whoncyer it could raise the least pretext
for broaching the matter. This isnot all. 1t
has converted itself into a perfect scdren ger,
making not only the whole county, but En-
rope even its district of dirty work 1t has
not only gone to the semi barbarous back
districts of Kentucky, and the foulest pur-
lcius of New Orleans, but the most depraved
sinks of London, that il might find isolated
foibles and sins of women as themes of deris-
ion and contempt. "Wamsu'a Rights, ""Wo-
mans Rights 'EstabIshed,' "Alrs. Stowe a
Smuggler, - Sc, &C., have been some of the
captions of that print, followed by accounts of
quarrcls and misconduct on the part of wo-
men, kent in ignorance and cBime by brutal
tyrant men, who scout the idoa of woman =
rights. and would forever shut the door of
hope and heaven against her. A fine theme
for contempt and ridicule against women by
the Free Press, when by the meancst dcccp-
ton and injustice, they were excluded from
the Worlds Temperance Convention and
even in our own village, because a certain
rum selling woman behaved like a nan of
that class when in the hands of the Officers.
the Free Press must deliver some haunting
sentences on Woman's Rights. Such has been
the course Of our ncighbor for nine long
months. We have watched il carefully, and
laid by many more extracts from that paper
than we have now room to print We hold
no ultra views on this subject, and do not
propose to argue the topic now. We rccul
to the subject simply to prove that the Ere,
Press has been compelled not only to aban
don the field Of argument but degrade tsc
and insult the fair sex, and the advocates o
their most obvious rights, by Il course wor
thy of such prints as the Woodstock Age OF
Benefits New York Herald. We are sorr,
to make this record bat truth and duty com
pei us to the task. Whenever the Free Pres
or any other respectable Taper will conscn
to argue the question now before us, we vii
meet them at Phillippi; but of sncerng, ridi
Guile, and taunts, we have had an abundan
supply.

and the candy was the grcatcst part of it, There
several schools in active operation in various
parts of the City, and though they cannot of
take care of all the children, yet they doing
great deal of good. Thank God for them and the
increased attention which 10 bestowed all through
CITY upon the wants of the poor, and especially Of
the children. A great many no doubt have been
touched by the story Of Hot Corn" and others Of
the sort, in whom it has produced merely barren
flow of tears but there is no doubt but that active
sympathies have been excited, which let us hope
may lead to a better time coming

The truth is, officers must be trusted some
whcre. Confidence must lie in the people too,
that where they have the power, they will
aim to appoint Lawmakers who will seek the
welfare of the body polite in their enact
mcnts, and law administrators who will strive
faithfully to enforce the laws which are made,
lncompotcncy and rcmissness will be met
with, sometimes, where they ought not to be,
in spite of all that man can do. But if we
are not willing to trust the institutions which
we live under, to work out the remedies for
such defects, as far as they can be edicd
1t is time for US to think of doing away with
our representative forms of government, and
of trying another system.
