Condition Of onr Railroads.

The Report Of the Railroad Commissioners
indicates that due care has been had for the
condition of the railroads of the State by the
guardians Of the public safety chosen to look
after this great interest. One of the commits
sioners has walked over the entire track Of all
cur railroads, and has examined carefully the
condition of the road-bed, sleepers, rails, cul-
verts, bridges, &c. In what follows we avail
ourself Of the careful examination Of this Re-
port made by the editor Of the Bangor.
Wig. Is siiss a.iflas s. Bssa9szs s,
The Maine Central Railroad has rebuilt and
repaired numerous bridges, culverts, &C., laid
$4,000 new sleepers and three and one-fourth
miles new rails. Much still remains to be
done to keep up the reputation of the road.
The Kenhebec and Portland road is rapidly
Improving, and during the past year has laid
$1,000 new sleepers and six miles of iron, and
repaired numerous bridges. Many more re.
pairs are needed next season to bring the road
10 proper condition. Extensive repairs have
been made on the Somerset and Kennebec
railroad.
The condition OF the Grand Trunk road is
reported to have been SO bad last spring as to
make it necessary to serve notice on the
manager, Mr.. Bridges, to make extensive re-
pairs. During the summer he has been Wig
orously pushing forward the work OF repair
lag bridges, laying new sleepers and rails,
&C., and the road is rapidly improving. ~F
The Androscoggin railroad track is report
ed to be, in good condition. Eight or ten
tridges have been repaired during the sum-
nler. The commissioners say that the timber
abutments Of severalimportant bridges should
be replaced with stone. The fences on the
northern portion of the road need repairs.-
The roads west of Portland are reported in
good condition. ozk
The York and Cumberland road Is stated
TO be in need of extensive repairs another
season. The Buckfeld road has received
needed repairs. The Oldtown road is report
edin good repair. The commissioners recon-
mend smaller road signs and the adoption Of
ihe new system Of signals to prevent casual

In his last speech in the rebel Congress. and
during the delivery OF which he was stopped on
a question of order, Henry S. Foote gave the

'l The scene in the House of Representatives
this afternoon on the passage of the amend
nent abolishing slavery. was unexampled for
its Wild, unparliamentary excitement Mem
bers on the floor Joined in loud hurrahs with
the frantic spectators in the galleries. The
Republicans fell upon the necks Of proselyte
Democrats and kissed them and embraced
each other crafty in the exuberance of their
joy. Ladies waved their handkerchiefs and
screamed their plaudits, and for time it was
impossible to bring either the members or
spectators to order. Up to a late hour lead
ing Republicans had doubted the success of
the measure. Several members constitu.
tionally opposed to drinking whiskey voted
an amendment on which they are acting to-

EGen. Butler'sdenial Of the responsibility
for and the paternity of the powder-ship ex-
pertinent at Fort Fisher, seems to be based on
literal rather than substantial grounds. for it
seems the idea of the powder-bOat originated
with him; that his proposition for that or some
thing similar was rejected by the War Depart
Inent on the advice of General Delafeld of the
Engineer Corps; that it was then laid before the
Navy department, and finally adopted after a
consultation between himself, General Grant,
Admiral Porter, Captain Fox, Captain Wise, and
Others.
