RAILROAD.
NoRrHFlELp, June I, lS5

puiiS 1910
To The President and Directors of the Mn
aeapolis q. Cedar Iatley Roa Road
COmpaRy.
GENTLEMEN Il beg leave to submit
the following Report Of the location
of the Minneapolis and Cedar Valley
Railroad, with an abstract Of the es-
timated cost of its construction and
equipment
\ careful reconnaissance of the
country through which your road
should pass, having been previously
made, the surveying parties com.
menced operations on the 9th of May,
1857, and by the 29th of July had
completed the definite location of the
Road, as required by the Act of Con
gress, and of the Territorial Legisla-
ture of Minnesota. .....
Leaving Minneapolis by a south
easterly course, the line of route trav-
erses quite a level country with easy
grades and little curvature, to Fort
Smelling, where it crosses the Valley
of the Minnesota River, near its june
ton with the Mississippi The valley
is here 1850 feet wide, the grade line
being lO7 feet above the summit level
of the water, atlording at all times
ample room beneath the bridge for the
passage of the largest steamboats,
that navigate the Minnesota River
Passing thence west of Pilot Knob
for distance of two miles, with al
ascending grade of forty feet pei
mile, the line proceeds over an undu
lating prairie for four miles through
oak openings. On this latter portion
of the route there is a considerable
quantity of heavy earth work, deel
! and usually short cuts and fills alter

TUE BEST INHERIrAScE.-Is ability
to help ones self, manly principles,
and a good constitution. Infinitely
more valuable are these than beauty,
birth, or blood Beside them, wealth,
fame, and position, pale away in
darkness, when they have come down
from father to son because then they
may be lost, and are ignobly lost in
countless instances. But with these
health, manliness, and self-sustained
power-wealth is created, name may
be founded as lasting as that of the
Caesars, and standing among men
secured by more honorable means
than the Golfers of all the kings could
purchase.
These thinds being true, the wiser
policy of parents is not to work them
selves to death in order to leave their
children pcrishablc thousands but,
by judicious teachings from infancy,
show these children how to take care
Of their health, and how to make a
living for themselves.

with the same region via Chicago and
Detroit. a glance at Railway Map
VIII show that these routes are by far
the most direct from Minnesota and
the British Possessions, on Red River.
to the Eastern States and Canada,
furnishing large amount of business.
which being once established on your
road, will not be easily diverted into
any other channel. That the through
tralhc from st. Paul will be large may
be Inferred from the fact that the
steamboat arrivals there last season
were 926, showing an average annual
increase of $50 per cent since the
year ls46, when the arrivals at St.
Paul We're "a. In 1854 the arrivals
were 256.
An important item Of trade will be
the transportation Of large quantities
OF lumber from the mills at the Falls
OF st. Anthony, to Iowa and Southern
Minnesota, while the trains will re-
turn laden with Coal, the product of
the country traversed by the Dubuque
and Pacific Rail Road. With this you
Will have direct connection by Rail
Road from your Southern terminus, to
Cedar Falls, which a reliable Compa-
ny has lately undertaken. The other
local business must also be extensive,
your road passing through a district
in which the population, already con-
siderable, is rapidly increasing by
emigration from the Eastern States.
Any one acquainted with the fertility
OF Southern Minnesota must perceive
that Rail Road communication with
the Great Lakes, the Northern Pine
region, and the extensive Coal Fields
of Iowa, is alone required to concen-
trate there a numerous population,
furnishing large surplus of products
for transportation.
In view Of the actual development
Of the country, with which the Mime
apolis and Cedar Valley Rail Road is
connected, and the expanding pros
poets that present themselves, it must
be regarded as an important link, in
one of the most prominent channels of
commerce of the Northwest, and
furnishing in its Land Grant, and 9TH
er resources, security for investments,
such as few similar projects can offer. |
Respectfully submitted,
LAWRENCE KELLETT.

Curious PITCHER among
the curiositics at the Hermitage, once
the home of General jackson, is a
wooden pitcher, remarkable both on
account of the artistic skill displayed
and the celebrity of the tree from
which the wood was procured. 1t was
made of wood from the elm tree under
which William Penn made the cele-
brated Indian treaty. The pitcher
was presented by the coopers of Phil
adelphia !; and, although it is not larg-
er than common cream jug, it con
tains seven hundred and fifty slaves.
The hoops, lid and handle ale of silver;
the bottom is a magnifying glass, by
looking through which one is enabled
to see the joints, which are invisible
to the naked eye.

The ENGLISH GOVERNMENT AND THE
llrDsoN BAY TERRIroRY-By the follow
ing from the London Star of July I,
it will be seen that there is proba-
bility of termination being speedily
put to the Hudson Bay rule in the Fra
zer River country, and the whole
country thrown open to unrestricted
settlement
An important dcputation, consisting
OF the representatives of several intlu
by large number of members of
Parliament, had an interview with
Lord Derby yesterday, to advocate the
abolition Of the Hudson Bay Compa-
ny's monopoly, and the opening of the
whole of their territories to colonial
ton. Mr.. Christy and Mr.. Roebuck
very ably stated the case of the depu-
tation, and Lord Derby, without com
hitting himself to the adoption of any
specific measures, gave the deputation
every reason to hope that he would
value the interests Of humanity and
civilization before those of a fur mo-
nopoly, and that he would carry out in
the valleys of the Saskatchewan and
Red River the same colonization poll
cy which he is about to adopt in New
Caledonia, upon which territory, ow-
ing to the recent gold discoveries on
Thompson's and Frazer Rivers, so
large a share of public attention is
now being directed.

CEREpo--Hon. Eli Thayer says that
his projects are working admirably.
The -Ceredo-which he founded
in Virginia, is fast filling up. manu-
factories are being established, and
everything promises well. When he
first went to Virginia, every paper in
the State opposed his designs, and
some Of them threatened him with per-
sonal violence, should he persist in
his scheme. Now, fourteen Of these
same papers advocate his interests.
and no paper in the State says WORD
to his detriment Gov Wise warmly
sympathizes with him in his efforts
and purposes.

MEMBERS OF THE q. 8. SENATE.

The Washington correspondent of
the Albany Evening Journal, writes
as follows of the leading members of
the United States Senate:
If a close student of character, and
general reader of political biography,
were asked to designate the five chief
men OF the Senate | think he would
promptly name Seward, Douglas,
Crittenden, Hunter and Toombs. Of
these, Seward and Hunter are the
most philosophic thinkers, the most
polished rhetoricians Their speeches
will be permanently Incorporated
among the works of American States
men. Stewards will live the longest,
because they are intrinsically the
ablest, and discuss topics of the
most enduring interest to mankind.
Douglas and Toombs are the keen
est debaters, and impressing an i'm
mediate auditory, they are the most
effective speakers. OF these two,
Douglas is the most subtle, terse, COM
pact and pointed. He has more in
tensity but less fertility of mind than
Toombs but the Illinoisian's mail
coat is finer wrought than the Geori-
ans, so though he is equally daring
and vigorous in the onslaught, he is
more liable to be pierced by the
weapon of his foe. Indeed, in the
hand to hand foray of the forum,
Douglas most probably Equals any
man of the times.
Crittenden is in most respects not
whit behind his compeers He is not
so philosophical as Seward, nor SO
classical as Hunter, nor so dexterous
as Douglas, nor so impassioned as
Toombs but in calm augmentation,
loftiness and conception, majesty of
micn, and-when warmed with his
snbject-in power of appeal--and
glow of imagination, he, to this day,
though silvercd DER with age, sustains
the reputation he won in early man
hood as second only to Clay among
the orators Of the Southwest 1t is
always rich intellectual treat to
hear the Kentucky chief in high Sena-
torial debate.

INDUSTRIOUS HABITS. Teach your
children to be industrious. 1t is the
best preventative of crime-tlIe best
guardian to virtue. Read the history
of the hundreds who fill our prisons,
and learn that idlcness was the cause
Of their ruin. Young men of indus
trious habits are seldom found in the
sinks of pollution-disgracing them
selves and their parents. The increase
Of crime among us is chiefly caused
by the distaste of honest labor too
many would rather steal than work.
If we could preserve the coming gen
Grafton from those sins and vices
which degrade the present times. teach
them good trades, and bring them up
to Industrious habits. Idleness, late
hours, and a disregard of the Sabbath,
drinking, and the perusal of obscene
and unprincipled sheets are causing
the ruin of millions.
