The Broad Gauge r. r,

The negotiation s for. funds to COM

been successful, and means will soon be
on hands to complete the entire work;
thus making a continuous line of wide
track, from New York, via n. Y. s.
EIie, to little Valley .(near Olaan,)
thence to Dayton and Cincinnati, aud
via O.. NJ. r. II. to St. Louis, in all, a
distance of 1900 mics. The N. Y.
Central monopoly, is ofcourse, down on
the enterprise, aud doing everything it
can to defeat it. The Central is trying
to disparage the Broad Guage by bitter
articles in the n. Y, Times, Que of which,
We are sorr5 to say, found it's appera-
rance il yesterdays Dayton Journal
We give below a contradiction to this
s~pitefu! effusioD, taken from the Cincin-
natl Commercial of this morning.
Dayton En9nire.
A very bitter article appeared in the
N. Y Times of the 20;h inst written
in the interest o! the New York Central
Railroad. These same parties were in
Europe during all of last summer en-
devoring to defeat the negotiations for
the completion of the Atlantic aud
Great Western railroad, fCincinnati
extension of the Erie guage, but with
out effect. There is, we are assured,
hardly a shadow of truth in tie state
ments made in the article referred to-
The contracts were closed before Gen.
Ward and DR.. DooIittle left Europe,
and part of the mou paid over. Aud
by a letter from England, written by
the shipping contractor, received on the
18th by the Asia, it is stated that 900
tons of rails had already been shipped,
and another 900 tons will follow immo-
diately. No bonds are pledged as sta
ted by the Times. Ard the Kennard,
referred to by the Times, is a Keunar,
who has nothing whatever to do in the
matter, but is merely here on a tour
through the Canadas. The negotiation
is for 81, soc, O0O and not 1900. 900,
as stated by the Times, and the whole
of the mortgages, in both States, are
only Sc, SOC, 600, thus leaving $4,000
coo undisposed Of
We shall not, at this time, pursue
the matter of the Times publication
farther, but in the event of another
publication as destitute of truth, and as
malignant as the one referred o,may feel
obliged to state some facts hat will
have a tendency to weaken tho iufuence
of the Times among capitalists.

Gerrit Smith on the Republican
Party.

Gerrit Smith has taken the "stump'
!, for Governor in New York, with hi!
usual earnestness and vigor. He lately
addressed a large public meeting a,
Cayuga County. Several leading Re-
publ ans were Oh hand and catechized
him at great length. As a sample ei
the manner in which Mr.. Smith replied,
we give the following extract from the
A Mr.. Austin advised him to withdraw,
as what he desired to effect could be &C
complished by other parties. Mr.. Smith
asked what party?
"Austin.-The Republican party.
"Sn,ith All, that's it? daughter
and cheering, in which Brother Austin
drew down his bead behind the benches.)
You would have M join the republican
party, then? L am far from -beipg sure
that | should promote either the cause
of temperance or freedom by doing so.
Every member of the Republican party
in Congress Except one) voted for the
most atrocious slavery law for Kansas
that villainy and fraud cou'd concoct or
the human mind conceive of. The gentle
man would lead me through the dark
and loathsome channels of w~iekedness,
putrefaction and oeath to get at righte-
business. What a horrible record does
this Republican party present | This
miserable party which has sunk away to
destruction and iufamy; which, when it
started, was beautiful and pleasant to
look upon, but which has become grovel-
ing and poisonous throughout its extrem-
titles Any hoaest man will be de-
bauched by remaining with it. 1t has
proved false to temperance and false to
freedom. 1t Offset Clark, a Prohibition
ist, with Raymond, an opponent of this
doctrine. 1t protested u friendship for
freedom, and inundated it upon the altar
of party. Then, to have this profcssed
teacher of the Gospel intoxicating fdel-
ity and support OF hat party! 1t is an
',Tbis was a little too much for Broth
er Austin, and he came again to the
conflict.
"AuStin.-I profess to be os sincere
as you are, and am as devoted to the
cause of Christianity. 1t is now try
ing to crush Douglas in Illinois.
"Snzith.-I denouuce Mr.. Austin's
teachings as false, pernicious and degra-
ding. What is the tendency of things in
party? 1t commenced with the
profession that it would admit no more
slave States; it abandoned this position,
and came down to the profession that it
would admit no more slave Territories;
it has abandoned this, and now has
taken up the abominablc doctrine of
sovereignty, and takes Stephen
A. Douglas as sufficiently sound on the
question for its uses. 1t asks
republicans to follow these downward
