subterranean RnIIronds.

The English papers give an account Of
a trial trip upon the London SubterFansan
Railroad, on the 4th of August The en-
CINE consumes its own smoke and con-
denses its own steam-necessary qualifi-
cations in an underground locomotive
but it is quite capable of fixing and whist
ling in the open air. The cars are longer
wider and higher than those in ordinary
use, and are lit with gas from recepticle
in the roof, which is filled at either termini
of the railroad. The train moved at the
rate Of twelve miles an hour, and, as it
passed along, the rumbling of wagons
overhead on the great thoroughfares of
London could be distinctly heard. There
are several way stations on the road, which
communicated with the outer world by
means of cuttings which are described as
miracles Of engineering skill. Passengers
and baggage are receiued and discharged
at those places. The fare in second class
cars for the whole trip is four cents, and
the company is obliged by law to run
train each way, at six in the morning and
six in the evening, for working people for
two cents fare. When Prince Napoleon
went over the line during his visit to Lon
don, he was so pleased with it that he gave
a glowing description of lis advantages to
the French Emperor on his return to Paris.
The Emperor at once adopted the idea, and
a subterranean railroad line under Paris,
between Montmare and the Louvre, was or
dered forthwith, and is now in course of
construction.

Maior-General Cassius NJ. Clay has taken
command Of brigade in Kentucky, and
is en- route for the Mountains There is a
splendid corps of officers now leading the
troops in Kentucky. Morris, Wallace, Clay,
Nelson, Smith, MetcalRe, Garrard, etc, are
a guarantee of quick and thorough work.
Gen. Clay is, by commission, MajOr-Gen-
oral, but asks only the position of a Brig
adler and his command constitutes part
of the force now Fastening forward toward
Cumberland Gap, and thence into Eastern
Tennessee.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati Ga
zette says:
ain addition to this there are some other
things that l know concerning him and
others, which Infer. know that he has
received an urgent letter from Mr. Lin
coin, desiring him to return to Russia, and
that he has promised to do so, but infer
from both his conversation and his actions
that he intends to first take turn with
the secessionists, though that may leave
the mission in the hands of Mr.. Cameron
for year or so. He begins as a Brigadier,
but if his success equals his earnestness
he will not fail to take larger command
unless the purpose Of Gen. Halleck is to
cripple every man who has not West

Iheard last evening direct from Baton
Rouge. Our lines have been contracted
within o comparatively small space, and
now surround the grounds Of the U. s. Ar
senal and barracks. A few houses have
been cleared away and some trees cut
down so that the early approach ofthe en-
emy can be seen. The position is consid-
cred by the best military judges here very
strong. The town itselfis literally desert
ed by itsinhabitants Breckinridge is re-
presented as being within eight miles, re-
osiving reinforcements preparatory to an
other attack. Our soldiers are in the high
est spirits, and l think they will be dis
appointed if they are let alone" Last
evening the steamer Empire Parish arri-
we'd from Baton Rouge, bringing down all
the sick and wounded. Here we can take
good care Of these martyrs in the cause Of
their country. The General began his
nursing by buying cargo Of ice for the
hospitals. Everybody applauded the deed
and all we'll folks are prepared TO bear
the inaiction of no ice, if the soldiers are
benefited Fortunately all have a tolera-
BILE abundance.
In the great fight Gen. Breckinridge
was often seen and recognized. He aps
peared to be in a great state of excitement
after his troops broke and could not be
rallied he was seized with especial gust
of passion, and threw his sword away as
if in unutterable disgust. The weapon is
now in possession of the soldier who wit
messed the act and the impatient wrath.

InrnsIon Of rhe yYest.


A Washington correspondent of the Phil
adelphia Inquirer says that information
has been received there from authentic
sources, which confirms the apprehensiOns
that have been entertained for some time,
Of an intention on the part Of the Rebels
to invade the Western States either this
month or next; and the probability is that
the invasion will be attempted at once
He says if the Rebels feel strong enough on
the Rapidan to attack, they viii undOubt-
Sdly do so, and adds:
ain such a case nothing is more probable
than that Jackson should make a circuit
to the West, and fall upon Pope's rear or
flank, while General Lee, with the main body
Of the Rebel force attack him in the front.
But it is doubtful whether the Rebels are
strong enough for that. A great many
troops have been sent from Virginia to
join Beauregard, in Kentucky. It is
doubtful whether they leave in front Of
Pope over 100,0 900 thousand troops, all told.
This is enough to defend Richmond and
keep the Union army at bay till reinforce
ments arrive but it is not enough to assume
the offensive with. This statement is made
here, on apparently good authority, that
the Rebels have in the West armies
amounting to $4,000 men, and that they
intend with them to eradicate every YES
tige Of the Union authority from Tennes-
see and Kentucky, and then to invade
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri, and
capture and sack Cincinnati This may
or may not be their intention. It is certain
that they have very large force in the
West, and that they will give us trouble
in Kentucky. The General-in-Ch Chief how
ever, has no doubt taken measures to battle
their designs, whatever they may BE-"

Go ahead, Gen. Curtis You have not

You know, without consulting the consti-
tutional authorities, that this man is q
lovslist who has been under the lash Of a
rebel, and so You protect him while he
is with you and then bid him God speed
as he leaves you to find a home among loyal

along and takes anoath which ten chances

that if you had done so, the laws of Con-

A secession Newspaper DemOIl.hed.

A secession Newspaper ntulolAaueus
The Times newspaper Of Bloomington,
III. was sauelehed on Saturday last in
summary manner. It has been one of the
4ilest disloyal sheets in the North, full Of
aIl sorts Ofsecession sympathy, and Of abuse
Of The Federal Government. Repeatedly
had the proprieiors been warned that that
sort Of thing would not dO-that they must
shut up or clear out. They would not do
either, and SO, when the Mclean county
regiment was organized, the boysrightfully
thought that they might as well begin to
crush treason at home as abroad. They
accordingly called the two responsible ed
tors cut, ard made them take the oath under
the American Gag; but one Of them was
persistently foolish enough to say that
forced oath was "was no oath at all."--
This was enough the crowd marched to
the Office and gutted it, amid the widest
cheers Of the multitude assembled. Good
for the Bloomington boys. The Government
Is fighting for its existence, and every
black hearted traitor at the North, as well
as the South, deserves to have his property
swept away, root and branch.

From a gentleman who accompanied the
New Ironsides down the river from Phila-
delphia, on Thursday afternoon, the Ledger
learns that the performance of the ma
chinery and the speed of the vessel was
very satisfactory. With about forty-fEe
revolutions to the minute, speed Of nine
miles the hour was attained, which would
be largely increased when the machinery
is worked up to its full power. The inten-
tion was to run the frigate as far as Fort
Mifdin, and come to an anchor for the
night, the pilot not wishing to take the re-
sponsibility Of going down the Delaware
after dark. She was to leave her anchor
age early Friday morning and steam to
the Cspes.
