The little antique, ancient Market House in
Cleveland, way down upon the CuyahO2a river, we
looked upon as about the hardest piece of public
property there, and we proposed, on our own in-
dividual responsibility, to swap of our Steam Fire
Engine for the old sutediluyian meat shop. The
proposition will be made to the two city councils

Mr. a,,ton and Disunion.

IL will be remembered that short time
since we gave an article written by Mr.. HIL-
TON while editing the Savannah Georgian in
1851. in which he declared that he believed
the union TO be the Moloch upon which was
to be sacrificed The rights OF the South. The
following is the article to which we allude !:
"We believe with Toombs that the cry of
union lis masked battery, from behind which
the rights of the South are to be assailed:
We believe that the Union is The Moloch,

it, at the same time saying thai he was no

Cincinnati and Nashville Railroad.

Cincinnati and nashville hailfoaus
A recent notice in the Nashville. papers
gives the cheering intelligence that a strong
committee has been appointed to visit Gin
cinnati, for the purpose of revising the pro
| ject of a Railroad from that city to Nashville
via Danville We sincerely hope the cop-
miitee will succeed in their important enter
| prise.
CINCINNATI is the great emporium OF trade
between the North and several States of the
South. The trade of, TENNESSEE Alabama
and Georgia must pass through Nashville.
And already it has been demonstrated. that
| the Louisville Road cannot do the trasporta-
ton of this immense trade. Greater facilities
for transportation are indispensable. road
direct from Cincinnati to Nashville, is the
/ great desideratum. The interests of the
North, and necessities of the South demand
! it. The two sections can build it,, and they
ought to do it. -t i. :. a.. 49,
A road to Cincinnati need not interfere
with the patronage of the Louisville Road
1t already has more freight than 1t can carry.
A road from Cincinnati, intersecting the
Louisville road at Gallatin, or at any point
north of that place, would avail nothing.
Freight would SO accumulate at the Junction
as to cause delay, expense, and annoyance.
We want through road that win bring grain
through with dispatch without exposure, and
with as little expense as possible.
To avoid contact with the louisville road
-or- in erierence with its patronage, the Gin
cianati road should pass east of Gallatin,
crossing the Cumberland river as high up as
Huntsville or. Rome, and passing through
Wilson county, have its terminus in South
Nashville. This rout would leave the barren
lands, and enter. the rich valley of the Gum,
bertrand, about sixty miles above Nashville I;
and for that distance it would pass through
| as rich lands as any road ia-the State. -, :.
The advantages of this rout are obvious
whether we consider the means of construc-
! ton, the cost of the road, or The supply Of
freight along the line and by feeders that would
eome;from counties east of the line.

The Abolition of slavery in the Dis
.EfE trict of Columbia. ..54t

; We find The following extract OF letter
from Hon. E.. II. -EwINc, Of this city, ad-
dressed to w. NJ. BYRD. Esq. of Selma, Ala,
in communication from Mr.. B publishedain
the Montgomery (Ala.) Post. No one, the
least familiar with the opinions of Mr.. BELL,
can doubt that he would veto any bill passed
by Congress abolisljng slavery in the Dis
trict of Columbia. We are satisfied that he
would not sacrifice any right OF the people of
the District, or of any other Southern State,
to the demands of Aboliiionism:- -
NASHVILLE, Sept. s, 1860.
W. NJ. BYRD. Eso--Dedr Sir: Il am well
acquainted with Mr.. Bell and his political
opinions, and know that as at present adj
vised. and under existing circumstances, he
would veto any law passed by Congress,
abolishing slavery in the District OF Colum-
bia know also, that he regards the Com
promise measures of 1850 as final upon the
subjects embraced in them, SO far as slavery
is concerned Mr.. Bell has
never declared that in his opinion the. veto
power should be used only where unconsti-
tutional laws are passed by Congress. He
has held that the veto power should be used
with much reserve and great caution, and
spoke at one time as to the opinions of Gen.
Taylor upon this subject. l am sure that
wherever he deemed the Union in danger
from the passage of a law. whether constitn-
tional or otherwise, he would nrhesitatingly
exercise the veto power. His devotion to
the Union. it would seem to me, should be
sufficient guarantee upon this subject.
Hoping that under the circumstances this
letter will not be regarded by you as intru-
siye. | am Yours with respect,
