State Bank Notes.

1t is anticipated that tho different branches
of the Iowa State Bank will commence the
issue Of bills the LIST of January. Mr.. lIoyt
Sherman, agent of the State Bank to procure
plates, &C., has written that the plates arc
being engraved, and one thousand sheets Of
each plate (Si2, 0o0) will be placed in the
hands Of the Express Co. on the 18th OF
Dee, and every two days thereafter 1000
sheets of one plate and 1000 of the other
will be sent. In the meantime they will be
registered, SO that by January LIST each
branch can have enough to commence bust
ness. The following is a description of the
bills as given by Mr.. Sherman:
Ones.-Vignctte..on left upper corner, ru-
raj scene, and denomination-right end, por-
trait of Gov. Lucas, counter, and gathering

Annexation OF South Platto'' Nebraska to Kan


Anne xa,lon OF '.South PIatto'' Nebraska to Kan
The movement indicated by the caption Of
this article, is certain to receive the atten-
ton Of the present session Of Congress. In
truth, we doubt not that the bill is already
matured, and will be among the first meas
ures proposed for the consideration Of that
body.
The reason which will chiefly influence the
supporters of this annexation movement,
will be the fact, that it will at once divest
tho subject of the admission Of Kansas
which will again come up-of the difficulty
arising out Of the English bill, which provid-
cs that she shall not come into the Union
until her population will eDtitle her to a
member of Congress. by the annexation
of that portion Of Nebraska lying south of
the river Platte, any inability from this cause
will be removed. The geography of the two
Territories seems eminently favorable to the
policy Of annexation and from what we
have been able to CLEAN from various sour
ces of information, the people directly in
terested in the question will support the
movement.
The Brownville 4drertiser, of the Sd inst,
holds this language upon the subject: Sin
the first place, Platte river is a natural
boundary line has been, Is, ana always VIII
be, an almost insuperablc barrier dividing
the two sections of Nebraska, known as
"North Platte" and ''South Platte" Full
one half the season it is utterly impossible.
1t cannot be bridged except at enormous ex-
pense; and should this be done, owing to
the trcacherous embankmcnts and bed OF
the river, nine chances to one, the Grst
freshct after its completion, would sweep it
away.
"Again there has grown up bitter Sec
tional or local feeling between those two
portions of the country, entering into almost
every question that may be agitated, which
always has and always will prevent harmoni-
Gus effort, and retard the progress and de-
velopment of the Territory. In short, there
are no interests in common at stake"
Nebraska City, the first town in Importance
in this district of the Territory, was former
~ supposed to be favorable to the change.
The Ne,cs, an,,er Secretary Morton, discuss
ed the matter deliberately, though recently
We have no recollection of seeing any thing
in its columns upon the subject.-M. 10.

THE ROUTES TO THE GOLD MINES.

We publish below a table of distances
from Council Bluffs, by the old Mormon
route, up the North side of Platte River
TO the forks of that river, and also from St.
Joseph to the same point. These tables VIC
have taken from STREETS California Guide,
published in 1851, and may be relied upon
as exactly correct. Mr.. STREET went to
California in 1850, and crossed the Missouri
River at St. Joseph, and made from actual
observations, n very minute description of
all the principal points and camping places
on the route, together with table Of
distances from point to point. Ills descrip.
ton and table Of distances on the route
from Council Bluffs, were copied from the
Mormon Guide, published by the first Nor
mon cmisrants who visited Salt Lake in
lS47. We have not copied the description
Of the various points MS given by Mr.. STREET,
our object being to show the distances from
this point and St. Joseph, as st. Joseph is
about as near to the forks of Platte River,
as any point on the Missouri River below
Nebraska City. The forks of the Platte
River will be the focus at which all the
roads to tho new Gold disSinss must
center, and as q matter of course, emigrants
will seek the nearest route to that point
From there to Cherry Creek is about go
miles. 1t will be seen from these tables,
that the saving Of distance in favor Of
Council Bluffs is l39 IA miles; and the road
at the same time much better, running near
" the whole distance in the valley of the
Platte River, on plain as level as board.
While from any other poiut on the Missouri
below the mouth Of the Platte, the road
must run over billy country, from 100 to
$50 miles.

Missouri Valley Railroad.

The following resolutions were adopted n
convention held in Sioux City on the ST.
instant:
Resoired, That VIC are in favor of an i'm
mediate organization of a company for tn,
construction of Railroad from Counci
Bluffs to Sioux City.
Resolr ed, That said company should b,
composed Of men to be selected by the differ
cnt counties along the line, so rs to represent
as near as practicable all the various inter.
csts to be in any way affected by this enter
prise.
Resolved, That to effect this object thcr,
DO n committee of five appointed to repre-
sent Woodbury. county in the organization
of such company, whose duty it shall be ,c
confer with such delegations as may be
appointed in the counties Of Pottawattamie
Harrison and Monona, and that they shall
continue to act until the object for which
they are appointed shall be fully effected.
Resolved, That VIC earnestly invite the
counties above named to CO. operate with us
by the appointment of committees to repre-.
sent them in carrying out the objects con.
tcmplated.
We like the spirit of these resolutions
They are concise and to the point, and VIC
sincerely hope and believe old Pottawa,ta-
mic will not be found bringing up the real
in the above movcmcnt-but rather that
as heretofore, she will be found in the van
determined to do or die.

NJ. l. NJ. Railroad.

JOIN A. DIX, President of the NJ. & NJ.
Railroad has written tho following letter in
reply to inquiries concerning the condition
and prospects of the Road at the date Of the
letter, Nov. 10th:
DEAR SIR In reply to your note can
say generally that tho statements in article
referred to, so far as they relate to the Mis-
sissipp and Missouri Railroad Company,
arc entirely destitute Of truth. To be moro
specific,
|. The NJ. & NJ. Railroad is not bank
rnpt concern. On the contrary, in spite of
the financial arrangement of the last year,
it has paid the interest on all its bonds, and
has finished 40 miles Of the road, twenty
of which were opened in August last. 1t
has over 100000 acres Of the best land in
the United States, which it has not incum-
bercd by any bond, stock or money lien.
2. There is not now, nor has there ever
been a lease Of the NJ. & NJ. Railroad to the
Chicago and Rock Island Railroad or any
other road. Though virtually continue
ton Of the latter, the two roads are entirely
independent of each other, and have no
other connection than through an arrange
mcnt such rs exists between all connecting
roads, to facilitate the transportation Of
freight and passengers.
3. 1t is not true that the earnings do not
half pay running expenses. During the first
four months it WAS in operation, it earned
enough to pay running expenses, the pro-
portion Of interest on its bonds, and divi-
dcnd of per cent on its stock. Since that
time it has participated in the general de-
preston of business, by which not only all
railroads, but nearly all other great interests
in the country have been lnjuriously affected,
but by prudent management it has main
taincd its credit and gone on with its i'm
provcmcnts. The road has now been in
operation under the management of the
company since July, 1856, and during the
two years for which its accounts have been
made up, its earnings have more than paid
its running expenses and the interest on its
bonds.
Respectfully yours,
JOIN A, Dix.
