Th. Consfitu,ion treats upon what 1t considers

ave deem Il only Just to state that this mode
ration has not been affected by the distinguished
speaker, but represents the deliber convictions
Of bis better judgment. More than two years ago,
as member Of the Southern Convention which
assembled al Montgomery, Ala in the month Of
May, he distinctly committed himself against the
policy Of king the stability Of the Union on the
loss of Q Presidential election, than which he

IL Mr. Greeley, Of the New York Tribune,
publishes a card, calling on Mr.. Seward to de-
clare whether he IL q candidate for reelection TO
the Senate. He alleges that some OF last winters
corruptonsts In the Legislature are getting re-
elected on the pretense that Mr.. Seward wants

Of the King Of Naples sent to the islands Of
Tremit He cannot set them at liberty, nor do
they even wish to be set at liberty, for the people
would at once tear them In pieces. BY a special
decree he has suppressed all the converts Of the
Jesuits, and has confscatsd their property to the
use of the State.
IL BY way Of California few rumors have
been received from China. Unreliable rumors
were current In Hong Kong that the allies had
met with reverses on the Peiho. The first Of
August was the day fixed for the attack upon the

tween the French and English troops, and gen
eral feeling pervaded English society in China

A Suggestion.

A short time ago MIR. c. Z. Hayes,
suggested to us the importance Of our
citizens looking out new route for the
Railroad through our town, ty commenc
ing at Otter Creek Valley, near the point
whore the last survey enters it, ani run
ming thence west up wide and
deep slough or ravinc, which heads with
in few fcot Of the School House near
the late residence Of Mr.. II e. Cloud
and continuing nearly due west from
this point to the South part Of our town.
and thence by a slight curve around the
point Of the bluffs near the mouth Of
Deep Creek.
We at first thought this route OF very
practicable, because the committee an
pointed by our people to look out the
best route, had omitted TO report it.
A few days since in crossing this line
near the School House, il company with
Mr.. John Allen Of our place, we made a
cursory examination Of the feasibility Of
the route at this point, the most oLjec
tionah!c Of all, and found to our as
ton'shment no very serious obstacles
presented. The cut required will not
exceed thirty five rods. in length nor
more than twenty feet in depth at the
highest point, and averaging less than
ten feet. The grading required on this
route we are confident would not exceed
the grading. on tue line where the road
is surveyed, while at the same time hy
strai .htening the line it would shorten
the distance at least one mile, between
the points where we would leave the
surveyed route in Otter Creek Valley,
and strike it again near the bluffs South
west Of our town.
In our Judgment the saving of mile
Of road, Ia loss than six, will be very
important ite N with the Chief Encinccr
when he comes to locate the route. Ey
cry one should see 'he Importance or
this route 1t will save at least IS 600
worth Of iron, lessen tie distance for
constant travel ever afterwards, and what
is most important to us, it would tend
more to perfectly secure the location of
the road in our town than any other
thing which can be done. Let US have
this route fairly examined aud reported
to the Caief Engineer. What say you
citizens Of Toledo?
