MISCELLANEOUS READING.
SWEDEN.

During the last four years the Swedish
government has shown a praisewofthy ac-
tivity in establishing network Of railways
il different parts Of its kingdom, hoping
thus to deyelope the agricultural and mine
raj wealth of that country. The Diet, III
previous sessions, had already voted 10 5,O0y.-
900 Swedish dollars, (about El 100000 for
this purpose, but they have been speedily
exhausted by the railway works in progress.
The government estimates that Is 900, 900
Swedish dollars, or about &2 600 600 ster-
ling, are still requisite for the completion Of
these works. The government proposes to
raise these S25, 100000 by means of FIVE
per cent loan to be contracted in England.
The King pursues his project of terrifying
Stockholm. and Of surrounding il with thir-
ty-three detached forts, for armament of
which 1900 heavy guns would be necessary
Military engineers estimate that some l0,
100000 Swedish dollars (ahout fSO0 OOO)
would be required for the construction If
these works, bat the Diet has hitherto re-
fused to vote funds to defray sach an ez-
pense.

The fayorite steamer COLUMBIA, Capt. James
Harper, has recently been put in complete order,
having had added to her former accommodations
a spacious saloon and fourteen comfortable state
rooms, with entire new bedding and other furni-
ture, and will until the 22d September next, leave
Baltimore EVERY SATURDAY AFTERNOON,
at six instead of four o'clock-thus affording pas
sengers and shippers two hours more in Baltimore,
and arriving at Point Lookout and kinsale at
more convenient hours in the morning. Return
ing. the Columbia will leave Riley's wharf, Wash
ington, EVERY WEDNESDAY MORNING, at
six, and Alexandria at seven o'clock, calling az
all the usual stopping places, going and returning,
to land and receive passengers and freight
All goods received after five o'clock on Satur-
day, will be stored IN the Company's warehouse,
at the risk of the shippers, and forwarded by the
ron, DAMON D S STAT b, the following
SIEkSWEDNESDAY, unless convenient for the
agent 10 send them after that hour, In which
event he is instructed TO do so, although it is
desirable they should be delivered as early in the
day as practicable, and all way freight should be
sent before four o'clock
Since the COLUMBIA has been enlarged, It
rarely happens that she cannot take considerable
additions TO her usual freight. Shippers there
fore having large lots of guano, pig iron, and oth
or freight, have them carried by special agree
ment, on terms mutually advantageous, on appil-
cation to the following agents.
