PACIFIC RAILRoADING.-Whi the citizens
OF California are doing all in their power to
inaugurate the commencement of work on
the Pacific Railroad, and the controlling pol
lticians are doing all they can to prevent it,
: there may be some interest in noticing the
eXertions now being made on the other side
OF the Rocky Mountains in furtherance of the
enterprise which we all profess to have so
much at heart. The citizens of Kansas Ter
rltory are stirring themselves in the matter
OF railroad to connect the most populous
portions of thut Territory, as well as the
Rocky Mountain mining region with the city
of st. Louis. In late number of the Lea
venworth Times, we find an earnest of the
intentions of the citizens of that region
which we hope will stimulate the people of
California to greater exertions That paper
says:
"The business of this Territory and the gold
mines (Which are proven to be rich beyond
calculation } have sprung into existence as if
by magic, and if ST. Louis is alive to her in.
terests, she will in time take rank as the
second city in the Union.
But bow is she to accomplish this. would
naturally be asked? By building railroads.
1t is true they do not pay, but the astonish-
ing effect produced hy them and the extra
ViN'""iy i"ciillles thty give TO travel and
transportation, and the influence they exert
towards the building up of cities needs no ar
gument here.
"Our citizens are now making the most ac.
tive exertions to extend a road west from this
city to Fort Riley. The city and county
have voted to raise 100000 by issuing
bonds: and private subscriptions will be
raised to the amount of Sl5O,000 more, with
which to commence the work, and with pub.
lie lands that We are almost sure of getting
no one can have any doubt ofits early com.
pletion, and no one who is familiar with the
vast commerce of the plains can doubt that
it will soon extend to the gold mines of the
Rocky Mountains"
Three hundred and fifty thousand dollars
to be raised for railroad purposes 10y a coun-
ty containing less wealth and population than
does the county Of San joaquin! Let our
citizens but take hold of the railroad with the
like spirit, and by the first of next June
enough funds will be raised to complete
road from San Francisco to the eastern boun-
dairy of the States. f. Telegraph.

A SPECIAL dispatch from Washington to
the New York Tribune, states that upon Gen.
Scotts arrival at San Francisco he is to be
forwarded to San Juan Island by special
steamer, unless the regular maill steamer is
ready to depart He is also empowered to
control the movements of mail steamers after
rerehing his point of destination. The cor
respondent adds The President has repeat
edly said, in conversation, [hat our title to
the island of San Juan is good, but other off
cials are not quite so clear on the subject
and it is almost certain that the Senate will
not press an extreme claim at the hazard of
war. Hence Gen. Scots hands are not prob.
ably tied up with instructions, but large
margin of discretion will be given him, look
