NAs SafAS faclnc Naotro04 Bill.
The telegram from Washington, Of the
"The House Special Committee this
morning, By vote of seven against FIVE,
authorised Mr.. Curtis to report his bill for
central Pacific Railroad, with one branch
to the frontier of Iowa, and another to the
frontier of Missouri. The bill was modified
at the instance Of Mr.. Corning, BY increas-
Ing the amount OF land and money 80 ~ to
make the measure practicable
Wetrust that this bill will meet with IA
yorable action in the House, though since
the action Of the Senate, we can hardly
hope that it will become law during the
present Congress. It will, however, have
favorable introduction to the next Con-
gress, and, we trust, may be passed through
at the next session. Gate City.

Congressional SoYereigniY.

The old question of the right of Congress
to pass laws for the regulation Of the Ter
ritories that may.apply for organization, is to
be revived again in the case of Arizona
Mr.. Grow Of Pennsylvania has given notice
of an amendment he shall offer to the bill
organizing that Territory, affirming that
slavery has no right to exist therein. This
will serve to show "who is who" on an is
sue that must enter prominently into the
next Presidential canvass. Republicans
can consistently occupy no other ground
than that of the right and the duty Of Con-
gress to exclude Slavery from new Terri
tories, and if Anti-Lccompton Democrats
and Americans will not join them in main
tanning this position now, it bothers US to
see how they can hope to coalesee harmoni-
ously year or more hence. Let the con-
test come !-Dubuque Times.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 2.
A private letter from Salt Lake CITY.
Jan. 9TH, says Judge Sinclair adjourned the
Grand Jury sine die upon petition of men,
bcrs in which they declare their inability to
proceed in the examination of witnesses in
consequence of the excitement and violence
manifested. Jury composed of Q Gentiles,
IL Mormons, and factous spirit ran so
high that revolvers were drawn and gene
raj fight, with difficulty, was prevented.
The letter adds that the idea Of an impair
tial jury, or justice being obtained in that
city. is preposterous, and martial law
probably will be established.

such M eagerness to bring Cuba, Central

which may extend the area, and thereby
