Gray, late U. S. Surveyor Of the Mexican
Boundary Commission. This manuscript we
shall publish as soon as we can conveniently
make room for it in our columns 1t the mean
time, we can promise our readers that this re-
coInoissance will give all the practical infor-
nation desired in reference to this Southern
Pacific route.
These notes include an examination of the
entire Southern line, from the eastern limits
Of Texas westward to the Rio Grande and Ell
Paso; thence through the defles and over the
depressions Of the Sierra Madre, or Rocky
Mountains, into the elevated table lands of the
Gadsden country; thence in the general direc-
ton of Col Cookies wagon route to the Pacific.
The advantages Of this route, as shown in the
late report of the Secretary of War, over all
the other Pacific routes for railroad, are that
it is from five to eight hundred miles shorter
than any other, that it is entirely free from
the distractions of SHOWS and freshets, that
it will require no tunnelling, very little bridge
building, and that over the greater part of it
the cross ties and rails may be laid dowa with
little or no grading, and that there are very
few points where any heavy grading will be
required. The Disadvantages of this route are
the general absence OF timber, the general scar
city Of water, and the predominating desert-like
character Of the country, from one extremity
to the other. These drawbacks however, exist
on every other route, in addition to the obsta-
Giles of vast chains of snow covered mountains,
volcanic defles, deep ravines aud water courses,
and great increase Of the length Of the jour
ney. Were other things equal, the single item
in favor of the extreme Southern route, Of a
saving of at least five hundred miles over asy
other from the Mississippi valley, would be
conclusive. But it has advantages in respect
to climate and topography equally decisive.
1t turns the vast mountain barriers, which, by
all The other routes, will have to be climbed
over or tunnelled.
Nature and the Typographical engineers con-
cur in favor of this extreme Southern route.
There u.s. and can be no other practicable route
for Pacific railroad for half century to
come within the limits If the United States,
eboIt of the anne xation of Mexico. And, as toe
next Congress may be called upon to decide
whether they will devise the Why's and means
for The Pacific road, OF consent to the loss Of
all our Pacific territories in the establishman {
of an independent republic, the road by this
Southern route, as the only really practicable
one, suggests itself as great Union measure,
and Oh imperative public duty at any cost.

forms and usages, the blessings aud advan-
tages, of o high civilization. The institutions
OF Cuba must be moulded by Spain to suit the
pressure of the superior influences which sur
round them, or they must be sooner or later
extineuished in bloody war.
The liberal policy OF England towards the
Canadas, resulting from the revolutionary ous-
break there in 1887, should have taught the
government of Spain, ere this, her true course
for the preservation Of tue brightest jewel in her
crown. The adverse policy of crushing her
Cuban Creoles into passive submission, of sup
pressing filibusterism by lawless acts Of bloody
vengeance, and Of bod defiance, under the pro-
lection of England and France. agains: our gov
eminent and our people, cannot last. The fee
bic administration of Mr.. Pierce may succnmb,
for the sake of peace and the quiet enjoy enS
Of the spells Of office; but even he may yet
be compelled to play holder hand than pas
sive inactivity.
10 word, neither the tranquility Of Cuoa,
nor the peace of the world, is calculated TO
gain any thing from such acts as the executions
Of Pinto and Estrampes. Their direct tenden-
cy is to widen and deepen the disaffections ex-
Using in Cuba, and to give an increased energy,
activity and pressure, to the tilbustering socie-
ties in the United States, from New York to
Texas, and from the sources to the mouths Of
the Mississippi. Under its present auspices, it
is doubtful if Cuba can exist another twelve
month without terrible reactionary move
ment, from within and from without, against
the darkest and fercest despotism of modern
times.

w. ii. Seward for the Presldency-New York
Observation-Disclosures OF the Spells.

w. II. Seward for the Presidency-New York
Observation-Disclosures OF the Spells.
Immediately after the re election of Sew
ard to the United States Senate, the re.
suit OF much tribulation, many troubles, vast
amount Of bargaining and selling, and any
quantity Of hard work among wirepullers and
pipe layers, they resolved next to make State
movement in behalf of their champion for the
Presidency.
This movement is now beginning to be deve-
Hoped. The plan is to carry the Legislature
next fall for Seward, and to get for him le-
gislative Presidential nomination for 1856, as
the favorite Of the dominant party of New
York. Every thing available or accessible is to
be applied to carry out this project. Hence the
fgurings in the Seward journals Of the canal
revenues, the State debts, the financial policy
Of the State, &c. Hence the dispensatioas Of the
spoils by the Clark regency at Albany, and
their estimates Of their available assets for fu-
ture operations. Hence the Maine Liquor law,
to keep up the temperance excitement in the
interior, and the new police bill to turn over
the police corps of this city to the control of the
scene shifters aud hired ruff ans of the Broad
way House. The end justides the means with
the Seward coalition, however detestable or
demoralizing the means may be.
The following estimates-wbich were proba-
bly, picked up in the room occupied as the head
quarters of the Seward Junta at the Aston
House will show to the uninitiated reader how
very closely all the party movements of the
aIch.a gitator are connected with the spells, and
how nicely arranged are his calculations Of
losses and gains for the next fall canvass

YOU DESERVE CREDIT FOR YOUR
Discovery.

-
THE following is from distinguished nefn-
4 ber Of the medical profession:
Sr. PAUL, January I, 1855.
Prof. o. J. Wocd-Dear SIR: Unsolicited,
tend you this certificate. After being nearly
bald for a long time and having tried all the
hair restoratives exsaht, and having no faith In
any, was induced, on hearing of yours, to
give it a trial. placed myself in the hands of
. barber, and had my head rabbed with good
still brush, and the Restorative then applied
and well rubbed in. till the scalp was all a
glow. This repeated every morning and in
three weeks the young hair appeared. and grew
rapidly from August last up to the present time.
and is now thick, black and strong-soft and
pleasant to the touch, whereas, before 1t was
harsh and wiry. what little there was of it. and
that little was disappearing very rapidly, still!
shall soon have good and perfect crop of hair.
Now hare read of these things-and who has
not but have never seen hitherto any case in
which any persons hair was really benefited
by any Of the hair tonics, &c, of the day and
it really gives me pleasure to record the result
Of my experience. i have recommended your
preparation to others, and it already has large
and general sale throughout the Territory. The
people here saw its effects, and have confidence
in it. The supply you sent US, as wholesale
agents for the Territory, is nearly exhausted
and daily inquiries are made for it. You de-
serve credit for your discovery. | for one res
turn you thanks for the benefit it has done me,
for | certainly had despaired long ago of ever
efecting any such result.
Yours. hastily. ]. W. BOND.

! same business, and will be glad to hear from
