TIE PROPOSED RAILROAD CONNECTION BETWEEN
EAsHru1E AND cScRSAu-The Cincinnati Eaguirsl
Of the 18th, contains the following article en- the
subject Of a rain Dad connection between Nashville
and Cincinnati. We give il as some indication Of
the sentiments of the business men of Cincinnati on
the subject
The committee appointed by the City Council Of
NASHVILLE. Tennessee consisting of Mayor HOngs-
worth, Alex. Allison, n E. AlIoway, H. G. Seymour
and George Nancy, arrived in this city on Tuesday
evening, and are now at the Burnet House. Their
object IS 70 present to our business men the advant
| ages Of more direct rail communication between
Cincinnati and Nashville, By the construction of a
road from Danvie ts the latter city. This commit
tee comes fortified with facts and figures, which
must have their tuil weight in determining the pro-
per point of connection whether by Chattanooga,
Knoxville or Nashville. The question of the ultl-
mate construction Of of the lines suggested is
hardly debatabe one. Public interest has already
settled that point
The Chattanooga connection has heretofore been
most discussed among those who have taken an in
terest in the subject hereabout and many are con
WINGED that line TO that point, from DanViile.
would be the most advantageous The gentlemen
who represent the Nashville interest think differ
emily and they certainly give very good reasons
TOR the faith they profess. In the first place Nash
vile and Cincinnati route, via DaDville was sur
yeyed in 1858 by Capt Childe and detailed reports
made, showing It's advantages charter was alsn
obtained from the Legislatures OF Tennessee ana
Kentucky which. we are assured, are still IN iuii
force. The estimate by this survey made the dis-
lance about no miles and the estimated expense
we mistake not was not far from S35OO'OOO. Inc
distance from Nashville to the State line OF Ken
lucky is seventy-one miles, and for the consuufuoh
of this portion of the route there are assurances
that Tennessee will lend its aid to the amount OF
$4,000 This line would then pass through two
of the most prosperous agricultural counties OF
Tennessee which have never been taxed for rail-
road purposes and it is confidently expected that
like amount will be subscribed by these two coun-
ties. This would make an aggregate of Sl5OO,OOO,
or nearly onehaf of the sum necessary TO build
the road In giving these figures we but state the
conclusions of the Nashville Committee
The distance between Cincinnati and various i'm
portant points, with which our city does an extern
sive business is the next consideration. We give
the figures presented TO us by the committee, which,
we have 10 doubt, are entirely reliable According
to the map before US the following will be the dis
tances, By the proposed line, TO the points named

The news by the Lrig Kate, last evening does mot
confirm the first account we had received of the
desperate state of Walkers exprditil IN in HoDdu-
ras IL is very evident that Walker would not Ia W.
retired from the fort at Truxillo without seeking
his way 10 some place where he could make A slsnd
and open communications with his friends in Near
aqua.
Besides, if his position had been 80 desperste he
would have surrendered to the British commander
1t is also shown that the battle az the Cotton Tree
was by no means serious an affair "a has be.n
represented-that Walker more than surtained him
self. with little loss and had reached in safety
position which he could maintain.
His position is at Lineas the coast where the
people do not appear 10 be untreudly. 1t cannot
be very far from Ruatan, or some OF the neighbors
ing islands to which Walker may effect his retreat
and where he will find friends and supporter
This is the most favorable view of his case IL NAV
not be justified by the facts. He may be over
whelmed and crushed, but Of this we are assured
he will fan like man and an American.
From the statement of Mr.. Allen. who acted a,
Walkers agent at Truxilo, we learn this eatastroph,
has been produced by the interference of the Brit
ish armed ship Icarus. Whatever may be SAID OF
the audscity Of Walker, it can not be denied tina
he hss been invariably defeated by foreign inter
vention--AsIo Orleans Delta, Sept. IL.
