F'ernandina and Cedar Kew r abroad.

The Secretary of the Interior Yesterday M
rroted to the State of Florida grant for 2s4..
56S acres Of land enuring to That State under
the nt of May l7lh 1856, to aid in the con-
strue,ion ofraironds. This grant is npplica-
bic to the road extending from Fernnndinn, on
the Atlantic, to Cedar Key. on the Gulf of Mex
leo, one of the most important railroads proba
bly, nthe extreme south. A considerable por.
lion Oft has been in operation for more than
year past; and it is expected that the entire
road will be completed and put in working
order as early as the lst Of January next.
At both lis termin there are said to be good
harbors and it is confidently believed that the
Improvement will literally compensate the
pubic spirited gentlemen who originated and
constructed it. Mr.. Yulee, one of the United
States Senators from Florida, is the president
OF the company owning the rond, and it owes
it's rapid completion. probably, chiefly to his
energy and business talent.
In ihIs connection, we may add th1 a com
Pany has already been organized, having for
its object the establishment of a line Of steam
ers to run from New York to Fernandina, the
eastern terminus of the road. which will prob.
ably touch at Charleston and Savannah The
same company also proposes to establish anoth.
er line Of steamers to ply between the western
terminus of the road. at Cedar Key, and Tehu.
antepcc. where they will connect with the
route across the Istbmus thus converting the
road into link of the continuous route Of
travel from New York to the Pacific coast
Other lines will, no doubt, be established from
Cedar'Key to Mobile, New Orleans. Galveston,
Vera Cruz, and other ports on the Gulf Of

Daily Mail from Augusta to Ninety Sig

The citizens of Edgefeld District, s. c., says
the Augusta Croniclo and Sentinel. contemplate
petitioning the Department at Washington,
during the coming session of Congress, to au-
thorize the establishment of n daily mail route
from Augusta through the District to "Ninety
Six Depot" on tho Greenville d Columbia
Railroad, instead of the tri.weekIy line now
running This arrangement is ono which
many of our citizens will naturally feel almost
as much interest as the citizens of Edgefeld.
Much of the trade of Edgefeld Distsict comes
to this city, and many, of our citizens ~I,ave
frierds and reistives residing in. various parts
of the District, and the ns,pf more fre-
quent aud regular. communication nre much
needed. Independent Of these considerations,
however, the District is a large one, the popu-
lntion active. intelligent and progressive, nd
the town ofEdgeield, through which the route
now passes a prominent and fourishjng vii
lage. But at present, the mail facilities, not
only on this route, bnt on all otllers through.
ont the District, are sadly deficient, .andt the
change here proposed il only owe. towards
