Hannibal & st. Joe Raflroad-New AR.

We were informed, by Col. ]. e. e. Hay

eral SupeYinte ndentF Of The Hannibal & st
Joseph RaiItoad Who arrived from St.
Louis the evening preyious, that Nhile
there, he succeeded ia consumating aud en-
tering into a permanent arrangement with
six steamboats,, to run In connection with
the Railroad Immediately on the opening of
navigation on the Mississippi and Missouri
rivers The two well kn0Wn,sn new and pepu-
lar steamers, Hannibal City, and City of
Louisiana, commanded respectively by those
whole souled and well known river men,
Captains Matson and Sheble, on the open
ing of navigation will take the track, and run
aa regular daily packets between here and
st. Louis. Each of these boats will lay
here at the wharf every other day, and
make the run to St. Louis at night; thus
giving railroad passengers an opportunity OF
rest and repose, while pursuing their jour-
new. The steamer Black Hawk will run
regularly between Kansas City, Leaven-
worth and the Southern terminus of the
Platte Country Railroad, making daily con-
neelions. All of these steamers will be
under the immediate superintendent OF
Capt. Ford, late of the Die Vernon, long In
the employ Of the Keokuk Packet Company,
and man almost universally known for his
strietdeportmeutan and eminent business quail
ifications The lines need no better, recon-
mendations for their success and general
satisfaction We also learn, from Col.
Hayward, that, the present arrangement
with the North Missouri Road viii be main
tanned and adhered to as strictly. during the
ensuing spring and summer, as it has the
present winter. It is needless to say that
we wish the arrangement and en- terprise I'M
bounded success and prosperity. Hanni-

Pixies Peak and the Pacific Railroad

From the Spring feld (Mass.) Republican. 81
Pixies Peak and the Pacific Railroad.
There will naturally be large emigration
to the gold mines of western Kansas this
spring The reports and the returns of gold
from the mines justify. such. an emigration.
Those who 90 with proper tools and outfits
will have fair chance for success. But we
Judge from all we can learn that quartz
mining is likely to be most regularly sremu-
nerative, and that companies taking with
them crushing machines will be likely to do
the best business. The expresses arriving
from the Pixies Peak region have brought
in over 100000 in gold since October,
while the weather has prevented operations
in the Mines and over half million is.
known to have been received since last
spring, although large quantities remain IN
first hands at the mines esza4 5asa 80
The latestexplorations point out the iheao
waters ofsthe Blue and Nebraska rivers as
the region where the gold is found most
abundantly. The Blue river is on the west
ern slope of the mountains, and is a tributa-
~ of the Great Colorado, which empties at
the Gulf of California. 1t lies west of
Pixies Peak, while the head waters of the
Arkansas lie north of the Peak. This is
the central region of the Rocky Mountains
and the source of the great rivers running
cast, west and south, and has always been
pointed out by explorers as containing signs
of great mineral wealth. If the expecta=
tons from this region are realized the route
of the Pacific railroad will be decided by
the laws of trade and emigration. The
route from the Missouri river up the valley
of the Arkansas to the gold region is a line
due west, nearly on the 38th parallel; there
are several easy passes through the noun
tains in the gold region, and the road can
follow the same parallel with little variation
direct to San Francisco. A large and busy
population in western Kansas will create at
once a large local business for railroad,
and as the geography of the country unites
to designate this as the most feasible route,
it will not long remain a question. It would
pass through the southern and most desira- I
bic portion of Utah, and branches would
naturally be run north to Salt Lake city
and south to New Mexico. AS preliminary
to the great enterprise Congress will be asked
at this session to establish a daily mail SER
vice from Kansas City to Pixies Peak

WoMAN's MARRIAGE.-To marry one man
while loving another, is about the most
grievous fault that woman can commit
1t is sin against delicacy, against kind
ness and truth. 1t involves giving that to
legal right which is guilty and shameful
when given to anything but reciprocal af-
lection. It involves double treachery and
cruelty. It involves wounding the spirit,
whitening the heart, perhaps blighting and
soiling the soul of the one who is abandon
ed and betrayed. It involves the olsen
chantment of the one who is Knocked by
the shadow where he was promised the
substance. and who grasps only the phan-
tom, soulless beauty, and the husk, the
shell, the skeleton of dead affection. 1t
entails ceaseless deception, at home and
abroad. by day and by night, at our down.
sitting and our uprising deception in every
relation-deception in the tenderest and
most endearing moments of our existence.
It makes the whole of life a weary, degra-
ding, unrewarded life. A rigbt-minded
woman could scarcely lay deeper sin up
on her soul, or one more certain to bring
down fearful expiration.

A SINGULAR ADyENTURE.-Once upon a
time, traveller stepped into stage coach.
He found six passengers about him, all gray
headed and extremely aged men. The
youngest appeared to have seen at least eigh-
ty winters. Our young traveller. struck
with the singular, mild and happy aspect
which distinguished all his fellow passengers,
determined to ascertain the secret of a long
life and the art of making old age comfort
able; he addressed the one apparently the
eldest, who told him that he had always led
a regular and abstemious life, eating vege-
tables and drinking of water The young
man was rather daunted at this, inasmuch
as he liked the good things of this life. He
addressed the second, who astounded him
by saying he had always eaten roast beef,
and gone to bed regularly fuddled for the
last seventy years, adding that all depends
upon regularity. The third had prolonged
fee, the fourth by resolutely abstaining
from all political or religious controversies,
and the fifth by going to bed at sunset and
rising at dawn. The sixth was apparently
much younger than the other fve-his hair
was less gray and there was more of tia
placid smile, denoting perfectly easy con-
jocund and strong. They were all surpris-
ed to learn that be was ten years the Oldest
