ance to their city. Even in its present incom-
pletc state, the Entclligencer saws that the in
huence OF the Hempfield road is telling upon

ing ulStllct -Ihere are, perhaps, few railways
In the United States which have lahored under
greater disadvantages than this one. The finan
clal crisis which did SO much damage to the
prospects of American improvements a few
years ago, cffectually crippled this. Unfortnn-
ately, 1t was left then in such condition, that
the work done on all the sections was unavaila-
hlc. But 10y dint of hard, struggling the link
between Wheeling and Claysyillc was finished
and put in working order 1t is now doing
paying business. henextlink, between Clays-
vile aud Washington will soon be ready and
thus the communication be opened through from
Wheeling to Washington. A good deal of work
has been done by the contractors OH the line be-
tween Washington and Greensburg, but as the
whole route from Greensburg to Wheeling runs
through very billy, rough, rolling country,
there is much still remaining to be accomplished.
The people of Wheeling are right in Hooking for
ward with SO much interest to the completion of
this railway. 1t will open to them short and
direct connection with PittSburg, Washington
Grccnsburg, and a rich and popuous region of
Western Pennsylvania Moreover it will put
Wheeling on the direct highway of intercourse

TnE American party turned out in large num-
CerS last night at their meeting at Washington
Hall. They were addressed by Mcssrs White
and Sellers of Philadelphia The speeches were
highly interesting, both in matter and manner.
Mr. White is an old experienced stump orator,
aad has been long time the advocate Of the
principles of the native American party He
made the prediction in his speech, last night,
that New York would go Cor Mr.. Fillmereby 25
thousand, Maryland 5, Kentucky 6, and that ne
E0nld certainly get Tennessee, Louisiana and
Fonda, He predicted there would be no cleo
a'A by the people, but that it would go into
ne House, and that either the Democrats and
AMERICANS would fuse on Mr.. Fillmore or else
'AAtthe Republicans and Americans would unite
On h,m. Either way, and in any attempt, he
predicts his election.
