Of the United States to the King. A rOysl zayet

procession was formed to convey it from the zsyet
to the royal City It was opened by order of an
under Secretary of the State, translated into Bur
mese, and presented by the chief Minister to His
Msjesty It gave great satisfaction to the monarch
and ali the court. Mr.. Kinoaid and Dr. Dawson
had two personal interviews with the King, in which
he expressed himself with great frsnkness, and init
mated his wish to have an American consul at his
court.
In some respects the King spoke like Christian
philosopher, like man possessing good sterling
common sense, who was deeply imbued with the re-
spOusibility of his exalted position, and DESTROYS,
so far as he was able, as the King of Burmah, to
discharge his duty towards his country, aud to live
at peace with the rest of the world. Application
was made to the King for piece of ground which

that he would not only give piece of ground, but

Our fellOW-oitiEsas Of West Tennessee are rapid
y completing 3 most judiciOus system Of railroad
improvements. The Memphis and Ohio rOad has
been for sometime ia operation from Memphis 10
Brownsville, ffiy-seveD miles. and is being pushed
to lie connection with the Mobile and Ohio rOad in
Gibson county. The Mississippi and Tennessee road
from Memphis to Granada, 81 which point it unites
with the road to New Orleans, WILL it is said he
completed during the next year. The Mississippi
Central and Tennessee road, from Jackson to Grand
Junction, has been in operation more than year.
At the latter place this road connects with the Meme
phis and Charleston road, east and west, and with
the Mississippi Central south to New Orleans About
eighty miles Of the latter rosd remains 10 be com
pleted We notice in the Mississippi papers q state
ment thst Mr. GOODMAN, the President Of the road,
has lately purchased the iron for this eighty miles,
and that the speedy completion of the work is Sc
cure. The Mepphis and Charleston road, from Mem
mis- to stevenson, connecting at the latter point
With Nashville and Chattanooga road and there's
b with the entire system Of southern and eastern
roads, has been 10 operation for more than year.
The Mobile and Ohio road to reach, when cOmplet-
ed, from Cairo to Mobile, and forming, in connex-
ion with the Illinois Central, continuous and al
most airline road from Chicago, on Lake Michigan,
to Mobile, on the Gulf Of Mexico is now open from
Mobile north about $50 miles. It lacks about one
hundred miles Of its connection, at COrinth, with
the Memphis and Charleston road, from which point
to Jackson, Tennessee, some fifty miles more is TO
be provided for. From Jackson to Columbus Ken
lucky, BY way Of Trenton, the work is finished, or
will be within the next few days. Columbus is
eighteen miles below Cairo the Mississippi river.
Between Columbus and Cairo the navigation is never
seriously interrupted. It will thus be seen that
there is now 8 continuous railroad connection be-
tween Chicago and Memphis, save the eighteen
miles Of river between Columbus and Cairo These
works have progressed noiseessly that many peO-
pie in our own State have not watched their con-
struotion. To West Tennessee they are Of immense
value. They make that section the centre of the
magnificent system Of internal improvements on the
continent, as glance at the map eff the United
States will show.
