Populnrltr of stres, Rnilrnnd.

The struggle in Baltimore on the 3Oth to
make subscriptions to City Railroad stock was
so great as to become almost riotous. The sub
sedptiOns were very large, half miIlion Of dol
lars it is supposed being intended for Philadel-
phia parties.
Why do our wise City Fathers continue 20
stave off street railroads in Cleveland They
are popular city institutions wherever tested,
and the trains will yet run over the foges eve
rywhere. The sooner the better.

It is becoming more and more apparent thai
President Buchanan is ready to forego deter
miaation he expressed some time since Of reti'
ring to the shades Of Wheatland at the end Of
his present Presidential term. His theory il
that he alone can harmonize the party at Charles

candidates his luck will carry off the prize
While they are contending against each other
Buchanan hopes to captivate enough Northern
delegates by patronage to join with the ultrt
South in securing a two.third vote of the Con

Nd sonlh nnd AdmInistralion on Douglas.


The souih and Administration ON Douglas.
TIE Louisville Courier declares that Senator
Douglas can carry "no Southern State, district,
county, or precinct, while he entertains the
doctrines of the letter just published" Such
is the tone of the Southern Democratic press
generally His letter finds little or 10 favor
South of Mason and Dixon, and North Of it the
Administration organs give it the cold shoulder
The Tribune's Washington correspondent
writes
The letter of Judge Douglas prescribing the
platform of the Charleston Convention, has pro-
duced much excitement in Democratic circles.
Ia those of the Administration he is denounced
as a hereto and infdel and f"Federalist" was
uot forbidden term at Court he would proba-
bly, be stigmatized with that reproach. In other
quarters ''disorganizer and such like phrases,
are the familiar forms Of expressing the strong
| Indignation which is felt This movement OF
the Senator from Illinois s considered the en-
tering wedge to q complete break up, and all
efforts at harmony and conciiiation at Charles
| ton may now be abandoned, unless he and his
friends should recede from the ground they
have taken. The declarations OF Judge Doug
las against eDgrafting revival OF The slave trade
and Congressional slave code for the Terri
tories on the Charleston platform, and in favor
of popular sovereignty, may be well enough fol
his position, but when they are used to cover
10 and indorse his 'Kansas-N ebraska acts OF
1854" which repealed the Missouri Compro-
mise and opened that Pandorn's box Of evils
and strife which have been scattered broadcast
over the Union since then, the experiment is
not entitled to much favor, and is not likely to
command success. This movement will pro
badly be followed by general reputation Of
Judge Douglas in the south, and a more CON
firmed rupture in the ranks Of the Democracy
which some well disposed but verdant poiti-
clans believed were closing up and harmonic

Refnrn 81 rIr. Stevens Tchnuntepec Ropte'
tMr srevxNs, the entorptising and eihcien'

Rerurn 81 rIr, stevens Tchnpntepec Hop'e,
Mr. STEVENS, the enterpfisng and eincient
manager Of the Tshauntepec Route, arrived yes
terday in iivs days from New Orleans. Mr.. 5
has spept the past several months in successfully
operating the Stage line from suchil to the Pa
cihc, taking through the u s. Mails and about
one hundred and fifty passengers each trip, and
without accident or missing the connections
Until ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Of the rainy season the
road was in fine order and the rivers fordable.
Another year the bridges will be completed, and
there will b. no occasion to haul offthe coaches
and convert the mail route into the old fash
ioned mule.path Of the country. During the
present rainy season Che malls are packed on
mules. and the travel is in the primitive style
of the people before Mr.. STEVENS introduced
the eAmericanisns Of carriage roads and coaches
The Company now have forty coaches ready for
service when tho road is again in order, and
will be prepared to convey four hundred passen,
gers over the Tehauntopec Route each trip
The time by this route between New Orleans
and San Francisco is only twelve days, the
Isthmus country and climate are delightful, and
the railroad connection between the Lakes and
New Orleans will be completed another year
The time from Cleveland to San Francisco will
then be reduced by this route to about fifteen
days The Tehauntep6c cannot fail to be the
favorite line Of travel 70 and from the Pacific.
The survey Of the Tehuantepec Railroad is
progressing, party of some twenty five being
engaged in the work The route is entirely
feasible, much Of the distance only llO miles
being no more difficult to construct than tn,
roads generally of the West. In passing on
CT two spurs of The Cordilleras, obstacles are T.
be overcome, but not serious as compared will
the Baltimore and Ohio, Pennsylvania Central
or New York and Erie. Senator BENJAMIN, @
Louisiana, will sail on the Persia for Europe, t
negotiate for material aid" to complete the i'm
portant work, and with assurances of success.
Mr.. STEVENS and the Clevelanders in tn
employ of the Tehuantepec Company have en-
joyed excellent health, and are pleased with tn
country and climate, always excepting tn
rainy season.
