formed by the Register and Receiver that
they have been notified under date Of Sep

probability within a short time maps will
be filed, showing the routes Of the Placer
vile and Sacramento Valley Railroad, and
the railroad to connect Portland, in Ore
gon, with Marysville, In California, result
ing in the withdrawal from market Of the
lands granted in aid of such roads by acts
Of Congress, approved July 18th, 1866.
and July 25th, 1866. This matter 10 very
important to settlers on the lands along
the line Of route Of those roads. We have
not the acts of Congress referred to at
hand. but judging from what was done in
the case Of the Central Pacific Railroad, it
may be expected tina. on the filing the
maps named the whole Of the lands for q
distance Of 20 or rs miles on each side Of
the proposed routes will be withdrawn
from market. Many Of these lands are
already surveyed and having been offered
at public sale are now open for sale at
private entry at 81. rs per acre. After
the withdrawal even numbered sections
sections will be doubled in price. They
will only be open to entry by presumption
in tracts of 100 acres or less, or by home
stead in 80 acre tracts. The odd num-
bered sections will be open to entry in
like manner for three months after the
filing OF the map, but after The expiration
Of three months their withdrawal will be
absolute until the railroad company shall
be entitled to sell them at whatever price
they may think proper.--Mary,uiM APP

CHEAP PosrAoE TO N FROM GREAT
BRIrAIN.-Penny postage between Eng.
land and the United States is proposed In
a London paper. Certainly it must come
to that, and the sooner the better. Now,
our postal arrangements with Great Britain
are Of the crudest and most burdensome
kind. A letter is "a cents (gold) either
way, while to and from France. going
through Britain, it is but 10 cents. On .
newspaper, the sender in Great Britain
puts on q penny stamp e cents), and in
the United States o two cent stamp, which
theoretically pays the postage through;
but the receiver in either country 10
charged an equal sum invariably. All
this is q great clog to popular intercom-
munication, and q vexation to every VIC
tim. Not another season should 60 by
without a revolution In the arrangement,
It is all q simple affair, which the post
Office departments Of the W. countries
could arrange IN . few moments. The
English penny stamp and the American
three cent stamp are now Of about equal
gold value. One Of each or two Of either
ought to be sufficient to carry a letter
through and between both countries, and
q single one Of either the same for q paper.
And every steamer should be allowed to
convey the mails, on sufficient security for
speed and safety, & a fixed and uniform
share Of the postage; and the Government
whose stamps are most used for this SER
vice should pay a share Of such excess to
the other. Surely such an arrangement
would be fair to all parties-peoples, Gov.
eminent and st%eamships-it requires no
diplomacy, q very little arithmetic. and
not much more common sense.

Tho Bell 10 RingiuE-Look out for
Locomotive.


The bell is ringing on the Sierra Neva.
da and In the valley of the Platte ; it Is
time to look out for the locomotive. and
prepare for its approach. The Pacific
Railroad Is no longer o dream or an IN
trustworthy promise /; it has been placed
on the basis Of a sound ~pecuniary invest
ment, and it's prospects are so good that It
is progressing with a speed almost une-
qualled in the annals Of railway history.
1t has already advanced so far as to have
an important economical value ; and be.
fore twelve months we may expect to see
travellers 90 and come across the continent
every day with the help Of the rail.
The two nominal and intermediate ter
mini of the route are Omaha, on the Mis-
souri, river, and Sacramento, although a
larger city, than either can grow to be.
must be the ultimate and real terminus at
each end. Travelling westward from
Omaha we reach Fort Kearney in $50
miles, the Forks Of Platte In $50 miles,
Julesburg in $50, Denver in 900. Salt
Lake City in 1900, Austin IN 1900, Vir-
ginia in 1880. and Sacramento in 1875
miles. But the road is now in working
order from Omaha to Fort Kearney, $50
miles, at the Eastern end, and from Sac
ramento to Alta, 10 miles, at the western
end, so that 1865 miles only are to be
built; and the Union Pacific Railroad
Company has promised that the cars shall
run to the Fork Of Platte OF the LIST day
Of January. 40 the distance will have
been reduced another hundred miles BY
the beginning Of the year.
Stages can average about six miles an
hour, and at that rate the 1856 miles Of
stage road between Alta and Fort Keqrny
can be traversed in less than IL days,
while the trip from San Francisco to Alta
can be made in ten hours, and that from
Fort Kearny TO New York in less than
four days. Thus we see that in case OF
need the trip from the metropolis Of the
East to that of the West Of our continent
can be made regularly within seventeen
days. BY two hundred miles Of addition
al rail one days time is saved; and be-
fore the END Of next year the trip will be
made to New York regularly, overland, in
fourteen or fifteen days, and so many trav-
elers will 60 that way that the stage COM
pany will find it profitable to make better
time and provide better stations along the
road. 1t is not improbable that within
three years we shall be able to make a con
tinuous trip to New York by rail. So let
US be prepared for the approach Of the To-
comotive.-S. F. Alta, Oct. s..
