TELEGRAPH TO THE PAcIFIc.-The bill pro-
posed by Senator Wilson, which was post
poned to December, authorized the Secretary
of War to contract for the laying down of a
subterranean telegraph line from Missouri to
Salt Lake at cost of not over half million
dollars. O'Reilly had offered to Co the lob
for that amount and to complete it in hun
dred days. 1t is supposed the wire will be
safer buried in the earth, as being less ex
posed to accidents and to destruction by the
Indians. The advantages of such means of
communication, during the war, would GER
tainly be very great, and if the Mormons
should be pacified, the line would undoubtedly
be extended to California. Objection was
made to the bill by some Southern senators.
because the telegraph line might become an
inducement to the location of the Pacific rail-
road over the same route, and they will hear
to none but southern route for the railroad.
Mr.. Wilson SAID the details of the bill would
be revised and perfected before the subject
came up again, and it is to be hoped that the
enterprise will be accepted, and the Atlantic
and Pacific coasts connected by telegraph
wire in the course of another season.

Money is very plenty in Boston at five per

thought the present solicitude to lend funds

celved from those institutions last year, when

The entire amount thus given to the States
exceeds six millions of acres. Instead Of being
apportioned according to the various in
acres or square miles, it is distributed the ba
sis of Congressional representation allowing 90
600 acres for each senator and representative n
Congress. The result that the largest State
sometimes gets the smallest quantity Of land
The distribution will be as follows New York

RAILROADS AND FREEDoM.-Where railroads
go, slavery yanishes; and that is one very i'm
portant reason for the speedy building of the
Pacific Railroad No slavery would live North
of it, put it in what latitude you would and at
every depot would spring up free soil village.
So it is along the railways Of the Northern slave
States. For instance, the railroad through
Northern Missouri, which is being built by State
aid, is already in free State hands, result that
highly outrages the Soulhlous. Thus the Co.
lumbus (Ga.) Enquirer groans as follows
at is to all intents and purposes free soil
agency driving the emancipation wedge through
that part of the State. Its depots are free soil
colonies, its laborers an army of foreign and ma.
tive abolition colonists; it excavates Southern
sentiments as it does the rock and earth
OF its track; and its extending rail is but a
lengthening chain to connect Northern Mssou
ri, in both commercial interest and political sen.
timent, with Massachusetts and New York At
The slection for directors of th S company, held
last year, the emancipation question was made
the test. and the entire free soil ticket for direc
tors was elected By party vote Yet the State
literally aids this road and helps to drive home
the abolition wedge"
