PACIFIC RAILROAD.

1t is probrabe that our republican fellow
citizens have concluded, since the election,
that very large majority Of the people Of
California care but Iittlt about the Pacific
Railroad, They will doubtless reason that if
the people of California We're really in favor
Of the railroad, they would have voted for
John G. Fremont, and as they did not do so,
that they care more for party than fer Pa
ciGcraiIrOad.
But this is not the true view OF the case
The people OF tie state are all in favor OF the
road; there is no division Of sentiment upon
the subject. The difficulty is, that each indi-
yidual is enelined to believe that bis party is
ihe one best calculated to carry through the
great work. Notwithstanding they have been
deceived by the democratic party since 1850,
on the railroad still about one half Of the vo-
ters hope on and vote on with that party. As
long ago as 1852 we notified the people that,
if they relied upon the democratic party to do
any thing directly for the Pacific railroad,
they would find themselves, at the end offour
years, most egrcgiously disappointed. We
urged that if Mr.. Pierce was elected, bis ad
ministration would be controlled by Southern
States Rights Democrats, who were opposed
upon constitutional grounds, to the doctrine o
internal improvements by the general govern
ment, and that, therefore, there would be no
thing done for the road under President Pi
cree. lie is in the last six months of his ad
ministraton and not one important step ha
been made towards commencing the work 0
the age. We would make the same predc
