wealth.
The wisdom Of the company in establish
ing the present time table will be proved in a
few months, and facilities will be furnished or
withheld as the citizens avail themselves Of
the conveniences offered. 1t is hoped the
public will fully and cordially sustain the cor
poration in its endeavors to afford them ac-
commodation, that the cars may never be run
less frequently than they will run tomorrow.
Mr.. Blake concluded by introducing, as
president of the day, one eXcellently well
qualified to preside on festive occasions
Hon. George w. Richardson. On taking the
chair, Col. Richardson spoke as follows:
We are here to-day to congratulate each
other on the close proximity of Lincoln and
Webster squares-places which many have
said could never be connected by an iron hand.
But Inow have the honor of introducing them
in the presence of this gathering of friends of
both points in this iron grasp. How has it
been accomplished 1t has been done by The
untiring eXertions of our president, the good
wishes OF friends, the energy of the directors
by the confidence of Anthony and fidelity
of Brown. What are we here for2 | might
almost say as missionaries, hot to the hea-
then, however, but to the enlightened, edu-
Gated and hospitable inhabitants of Webster
square. What do we bring them that they
had not before? The Churches, high school,
lyceum, public library, Mechanics hall, and
the city proper even to their very doors. We
are to be SO near them hereafter that we
can almost hear Curtis spindles and exam
inc the texture of his goods, and at the
same time grasp Goes wrench to make our
friendship closer. We are here to accept the
hospitality and good cheer Of those who were
always our friends in former days, but now our
next door neighb0rs. We are here to hear
our orators, poets, mayors and others, and it
is to be my pleasant duty to introduce them to
you from time to time.
The president concluded by proposing three
cheer; for the ladies of New Worcester, for
their elegant entertainment, which were given
with will by the whole assembly.
He then introduced the Hon. ID. w. Lin
coin, mayor of the city, the head of the arm
which embraces the two extremes of the city
and the head Of the government, which by
their unanimity and courtesy had enabled the
corporation to accomplish their object in
building the road.

UNION SENTIMENT IN TIE REBEL ARMY.
The Cincinnati Commercial publishes a let
ter from a well known citizen in Georgia who
recently lett that state and is now within our
lines, which embOdies some instructive facts.
We quote:
''1'he true feeling of the south is this The
property-holders OF lands and slaves control
the masses, and they will hold in the army, at
all hazards, the poor, feeling they must loose
everything in case of falure. Many of them
would gladly go back to the old Union, how
ever, were this fear not entertained, and the
men, the poor men, the gulled and abused
men, by Yancey Toombs, Rhett, and the in
famous Howell Cobb, would go home at any
time if they could.
.'But how are they to do it? If they leave
the army and remain in the southern lines,
they will be shot Tor desertion, and if they
come to the north their families must suffer.
They pay now in confederate money S 80 per
pound for Bacon and the same price per doz-
en- for spun thread and shoes are played OUT

men. md tce7e Rerer IN facog Of rebellion
but the bayonet has done for them what it will
do for the whole land, unless it is guarded
against"
JEFF. DAVIS FILLING HIS PURSE.
The writer, after showing the deSolation
which the rebellion has caused throughout the
south, continues
This is the mighty land of wealth, bloom
and ariStOcracy, that jeff Davis was to build.
a man vino made his last speech in the United
States senate for the Union, went home, and
turned secessionist, and began to steal. They
paid him twenty thousand dollars Il year, and
he loved the dear people Sc well that he took
it, and in the army he has given every kins-
man that he has Il high observation-disclosures, Van
Dorm, Taylor, Lovei, and Davises without
number; even tosil Joe is ii major general,
and To keep these fellows in cash / presume
he had congress make AN appropriation of
one hundred ami fifty thousand dollars, in
specie, 10 send north TO the Fort Donelson
prisoners, and pocketed 1t himself; he sent
none. And no man can compliant y ithUut be-
ing placed in prison. He put me IN the to-
bacco factory with Colonel CorcOran, Ely and
host of federal soldiers, on suspicion, and
lett me there until he was forced by public
sentiment to release me. Now, what can Il
people hope for with such il man to rule! And
how great is the obligation OF the govern
ment to rid Il misguided people of such mon
ster?
