We have long been accustomed 70 look for
ward to the Accomplishment ofthis gigantic pro-
;sct as 4 certni,fs; and II has been a source Of
unsnal pleasure to Us to picture to ourselves the
vast benefits that would accrue 20 our country
from o railway connection between The Attain
TIC and Pacific oceans across the section OF our
continent proposed TO be traversed by the Pacif-
lie Railroad. We have never for moment
doubted that within twenty -fve years from the
time the idea was first broached cars would run
without changing between New York and San
Francisco; and, although the project has not
progressed as rapidly As many enthusiastic peo-
pie have anticipated, we now believe that ten
years from the present time will witness a con-
nection between those two places by railroad
1t is in connection with the interests OF the Pa
cific Railroad that the name of Thomas II. Ben
ten will 90 down to posierity with imperishable
honor, and associated with his win be the name
of Col John C. Fremont, the intrepid American
explorer But besides the past efforts of Col +.
IN behalf of this great project, we are pleased
to observe by our exchanges that there is pros
pect that he will contribute largely of his i'm
mense wealth towards the contamination of the
enterprise The Railroad Advocate, speaking
of this matter, SAYS sCol. Fremont is abund-
antly able to build the road himself. A hundred
millions is a small matter with him. 0rhe could
share the work with Palmer, Cook & Co., the
great banking firm of San Francisco, next to
himself now the wealthiest men in the country.
Only think, if the immense revenue OF the Mar
iposa estate should be turned to the accomplish
ment Of the great enterprise at which the Eas-
tern States and the General Government have so
long hesitated, what great purpose, might
be effected Whatsoever money can do, Ere
mont can do May the purse-strings of the
great explorer be drawn very wide Peoria Re
