SOUTHERN PAcIFIC RAILROAD.

In accordance with resolution Of The Bgard OF
Directors Of the southern Pacific Railroad Company,
all shares Of stock upon which iustaLments were
due and unpaid, were sold on the 18th February,
leaving the holders, however, the privilege Of re-
deeming their shares by paying the amounts due,
within one month from the day mentioned. This

the Indebtedness Of the company and the terms Of
existing contract for the completion Of seventy
miles Of the road within affixed period The enter
prise Of the present management have produced the
best effects upon the prospects Of the road; the
rights and privileges Of the company under its
charter have been secured by the completion Of the

The New York Ersumg Post Of Saturday after
noon last, says: 1.-THE United States steam frigate
Niagara sailed this morning for England, to resume
the attempt to lay the electric telegraph cable across
the Atlantic. She steamed down the river from Che
navy yard against the food tide aud passed the cas-
lie on Governors Island at twelve o'clock.
THE Niagara is the largest ship in the world,
tc1cept the Leviathau, just launched at L5uiou,)
but her movements, as she passed among the yes
sells in the river and through the ice were as easy
and quick and graceful as those Of our river steam
ers.
She is TO take oue-half the cable on board, and
an English ship, probably the Agamemnon,} viii
take the other half. The two ships viii then pro-
coed to mid-ocean, where they viii unite The two
ends Of the cable, and then one steaming for Eng
land and the other for America, viii occupy but half
the time IN laying the whole which would De requir-

and proceed continuously to this. The chances Of
fair weather during the process will thus be doubled
The Zine occupied, after the vessels part from the
starting point WILL if no accident occurs, be about
seven to eight days i'm reaching The two shores.
"The Niagara viii probably return to this coun-
try in August"

There was another large gathering on Monday even
ing to hear the adjourned debate on the question Of
the Immortality of the Soul. 1t lost some Of its Inter
est on this occasion, as the speaking was confined to one
on each side Notwithstanding this, however, the au-
dience endured the sitting atmosphere Of a warm and
unventilated room until near elsveno'cloek, when it vas
abruptly terminated and given to the jury, thus prevent
lug others who may have desired, from participating in
the discussion. The jury gave y unanimous verdict ia
favor of the aA6rmativc.
An election Of officers was held, and the following
gentlemen were chosen J. r.. Case, President J
Beswick, Vice President; Caleb Adams, Secretary /;
Henry Calea, Treasurer.
The question for next evenings debate is relative to
the Legislative power to prohibit the sale Of ardent spir-
its as a beverage.
