TWO RAILROADS.

Senator Stewart told US some time ago
that he favored the construction Of two
railroads over the mountains, connecting
this State with California, and that what
ever he could do, as a Senator in Con-
gress, to obtain aid in this behalf from the
Government he would. We shall keep
our eve on Senator Stewart in this con-
n~ection, and see what he will do next
Winter. Senator Nye, also, personally,
has told US that he favors the railroads
over the mountains. In the New York
Sun, of September lst, appears the follow
ing telegraphic dispatch from California
dated August Goth. relative to the attempt
of the Central Pacific Railroad to choke
down railroad competition over the noun
tains. The telegram expresses the senti-
ments of a large portion Of the people'on
this as well as on the other side OF the
Sierras. The friends of the Placerville
route, however, are by no means discour-
aged; but, on the contrary, the attempt
to "mash them out" has stimulated them
to renewed action, and if their project OF a
railroad from Rio Vista is accomplished,
as we are assured it will, the buying-up
for specializing purposes Of the road from
Sacramento to Folsom, will prove to have
been a sorry purchase. But here is the
dispatch from the New York SIN;
1.-THE Central Pacific Railroad Company
have purchased a controlling interest in
the Valley Railroad, extending from Sac
ramento city to Folsom, thereby securing
the central route between Sacramento and
Washoe via Placerville, and retaining also
! possession of their original route to
Washoe and Dutch Flat. The movement
greatly strengthens the Pacific Railroad
Company by destroying all opposition.
and enabling it to charge such high rates
for passage and freight as will make, when
completed, that portion Of the railroad pay
handsomely. The people of Washoe and
along the Pl~acerville route are greatly dis
| appointed at the change, as it affects their
interests ~unfavorably. The opinion gains
ground that under the present plan Of
building the Pacific Railroad. it must be-
come, when completed, a very extensive
monopoly, having the power to charge
such rates for freight and passage as may
unnecessarily retard the development Of
the country traversed. Newspapers urge
that as the Government furnished means
for constructing the road, it ought to in
duce its army engineers and soldiers to
take entire charge of the work, and COM
plete it speedily on Government account;
thus retaining the power in the hands of
the Government to take the road when
completed, and make 1t n of the cheap
est roads in America, which would result
in an immense development of our empire
of mineral and agricultural wealth during
the present generation"

Gen. Johnston Taking Leave of his
staff

A correspondent of the Newport Herald,
writing from Greensboro, N. c., gives the
following interesting account of the clos
ing war scenes Of that State:
This morning, Gen. Joseph Z. Johnston
broke up his headquarters near this place.
and bade farewell to the members of his
staff except his personal aids. aud pro-
ceeded TO Charlotte. The scene was an
affecting one. and all who witnessed it
regarded it in that light. In the midst of
a wood at distance of two miles from
Greensboro, were a few tents, some wagons
and number of horses. No longer was
no hustle and excitement; no hasty utter
ances and startling EXPLANATIONS; none of
the liveness pertaining to active field
service. The countenances and actions of
both officers and orderlies bespoke an oc.
cupation gone.
Soon after sunrise, the General and staff
rose and partook of frugal meal. A eamp
chest served them for a table. aud the
ground was used in lieu of chairs. The
spoons and forks used of silver, but both
were of the inexpensive kind. Their meal
over, their appetites appeased, orders
were gwen and received, the tents struck,
personal property packed, the wagons
loaded and everything got in readiness to
De moved This accomplished, the Gene
raj gathered his staff around him and
made few remarks. He thanked them
tor their services, the aid they had ren.
dered him, and hoped the future would be
brighter than the present and the past.
Few as the words and actions were they
embraced the parting scene BY noon the
wagons moved, and the General and those
OF 'h's staff, who proposed to journey his
way, placed their horses and baggage on
me cars and left for Charlotte; and as they
did so, the headquarters of the Conf.de.
rate Army of the Tennessee ceased to hnye
an ex'stence-commencing its Journey to
history and prosperity.
Gen. Johnston in manner is dirnifed
and aftable: in conversation easy and
agreeable, and in personal appearance.
attractive. His ability as soldier and a
scholar is eminent
just before the General went away
asked one of his aids if he would y home
after reaching Charlotte.
No was the reply.
"Why?" ! again asked.
"Because," replied the aid, che has no
home to 20 TO-
1he conversation turning on money, l
again asked the same staff officer if he
had any. he answered in the negative.
@ '.sii "het are you all go:us 10 &C for
some!" asked
That is what puzzles u.s." he replied;
ana no doubt not desiring to converse on
a subject unpleasant to him, he walked
away.

each taking his neighbours hand, and look

inquiry is a coarse one, no doubt, but it is
full Of meaning. If it cannot be answered
