PniIADELPHlA, Dec. 1.-THE report of the
Senate proceedings sent west last night cor.
tanned all we received. The National InteJii-.
genssr, Of Washington, of this morning, CON
Senator Bell on the Pacific Railroad
Mr.. Bell very briefly stated his views as TO
the importance and necessity of tile construc.
ton of the road mainly for war purposes. and
incidentally as beneficial in a commercial point
of view. The opinion he had expressed several
years ago, aud he had no reason to change them.
This was an undertaking of too much magni
tude to be left to private enterprise, and tie,
main objection which he had to the amendment
Of the Senator from Mississippi, Mr.. Davis, was
that it did not propose to advance money
enough to secure the construction of the road
He thought that rs matter of economy. If
would be better to give one hundred and fiftv
millions of dollars il necessary, than NOT to
have the road built He believed that unless
the government gave its aid to the road it never
would DC a success, uor could we hold our Pm.
citfc territory. He held it to be matter Of me-
cessity that We should have route across the
power: When he conceded, the bill was in.
formally laid aside.

EW-A Grierance.-lIardy day passes over
our heads that we do not have several of our
subscribers at our counting room, to enquire
wherefore their paper has not been left at their
house or store. Our carrier never fails to supply
all our friends with the Intelligencer, to be
taken at breakfast. The grievance, then, of
which We complain is, that our citizens and pa.
irons should be thus annoyed, and We have no
hesitation in saying to our police that at doors
where there is no opportunity of putting the
paper under or inside, it isstolen. We know
that others of our friends in the newspaper line
in the city have the same cause Of complaint
We wish, both for the sake of our subscribers
and for Onr own sake, that this nuisance which
we have icalled a grievance, could be abuted,
and right speedily. -

New YORK, Dec. 1Y.-Negotiations have been
made, going on in this city for ten days past,
between F. o. j. Smith and the Chief owner of
the Union Telegraph Line, the Magnetic Tele-
graph Co. owning the Morse lines between this
city and New Orleans, and the American Tele.
graph Co., with n view TO consolidation of the
Magnetic and American Companies lines South
ana the purchaser of the Union line between
this city and Boston. 1t is also understood that
satisfactory arrangements have been finally
rHIde between all the. parties interested in the
various lines South of this city, by which these
lines pass under the control of one Company to
be known as the American Telegraph Company,
on the lst Of January next, but that all ncgotia
tons were broken off with Mr.. Smith because
of his alleged unreasonable demand On tho
LIST of January, therefore, there will be for all
practical business purposes a complete union of
interest between the prominent Telegraph Com.
panieS, which with their connecting side lines
embrace all the wires in the Atlantic States and
British Provinces, excepting only the South or
Union line above referred to, which runs be.
tween this city and Boston, via the New York,
Newfoundland and London.
We think the public may rest assured that
there is about to be general and decided i'm
provethent in the telegraph facilities of this
country that far better aud more reliable lines
will DO constructed; that better salaries will be
paid to- the Operators and Clerks and conse.
Iquently higher grade of skill will be secured
for the management of tho lines, and that the
very best systems of telegraphing, of one uni.
form character, will be introduced upon all lines;
that all the important points of the country
VIII be IN constant connection with each other
day and night.
Finally, that ultimately and very material re.
ductions will doubtless be made from the present
tarif Of prices.

lister of State, had assured Mr.. Dodge, that Spain
had not the most remote intention of interfering
with the we'll known policyof the U. S. as ex-
