THE PROPOSED PACIFIC TELEGRAPH
Of The 4. Y. Trihuna.

Correspondence Of The n. Y. Tribune
WASHINGTON Friday. Feb. 2, 1856.
In despite of the absurd opposition of Col.
Benton and others TO the tablshmens Of tele-
g. aph to the Pacific the BILL you will perceive, has
pas.td the House in the simplest form. The pro-
jectors, Messrs Alden and Eddy, of Maine, orig
nally asked for grant Of two millions Of acres
in aid of their enterprise, and offered, as con-
sideraticn, to give the Government the prior use
of the line at all times, and to transmit their mes
ssges gra.uitOusy TO the extent of eight thousand
words per annum. Inspecting everything 90
swinde that comes before Congress in the way OF
application for land grants-as it is not to be
wondered at they do-many members hesita ed,
snd the bill dragged. As Messrs. EDDY and Alden
did not propose to corrupt anybody, nor cheat,
nor pay body for votes or services, but simply
offered what they deemed a fair equivalent for the
grant they asked, they were ready to withdraw
their application for the grant of land accompany
ing it, at the same time, with a withdrawal to
furnish the Government any gratuito1s, or pre-
ierred service, thus allowing ii to stand on foot
ing with all other parties in the transmission OF
messages. On this basis, asking merely for the
right Of way, and the protection of Law over their
enterprise, and no monopoly, the application of
Me.srs. EDDY and Alden has been granted. II
would seem that no imaginary objection to such
proposition could be found. Yet abou! seventy
gentlemen, headed by Col Benton, were found to
oppose and vote against this great and important
enterprise. 1t is of vast consequence, not only
to the United States, but to the whole world that
this line should be built, and it is to be feryently
desired that the applicants may be enabled to find
the means Of constructing it. 1t strikes US as
more likely that the telegraph wires, which are
to encir lie the world are to cross at Behring's
Straits, than to be laid across the Atlantic. In
tbs view Messrs. Eddy and Aden's enterprise
becomes of increased consequence, and inspires
livelier hopes for it's speedy realization. Jsr.
