New Southern Railroad Projects.

We notice that among the new and pro-
gressive projects now being moOted is
that Of a railroad connecting Middle Ten
nessee with Central Alabama. To effect
this it only requires the stretching Of a line
to Selma from some point on the Memphis
and Charleston Railroad. It would pene-
trate one of the richest regions IN the
United States, viewed naturally, and q
region greatly iE want Of railroad commu-
nication. Its influence would not be so
much to increase the traffic and trade with
any particular town as to enlarge commu-
n~ication with the great river-systen of
Alabama, which flows Southwark, and in
crease the facilities Of direct commuDica.
ton between Northern Alabama and the
seabosrd.
We observe that while in many parts Of
the South the old railroads that were de-
stroyed during the war have been repaird,
there are many other railroad projects,
which have been spoken of for years, that
bid fair to be built within the next few
years. English capitalists are procuring
information previous TO investing in many
Of these roads. They have already, since
the close Of the war, gone largely into
steamship lines between Europe and New
Orleans, and other Southern ports. These
investments have proved exceedingly
profitable, and the next step Of those specu-
lators will be to take hold Of the work of
building Southern railroads.
A direct line from this city to Mobile
would be Of incalculable benefit not only to
Nashville, but to Tennessee; aud we hope
10 see the project pushed through.

RtNoISa DooR-BELLs.-This play is essen

Jexterity on the part Of the player. Pro.

the expression Of the person who opens

but never q third time. A clever variation
Of this sport may be obtained by carefully

THE PETROLEUM IETEREsT.-We learn
from the New York Tribune that the report
Of the United States Revenue Commission
on Petroleum as a source Of national rev
enue," shows that petroleum is no longer
al uncertain speculation, but a gigantic
business. From this report eve see how
the wilderness Of an almost unknown district
Of Pennsylvania has become the centre of
one Of the first staples Of commerce and
manufacture. The customs tables tell Us
that American seamen now carry petroleum
TO a hundred ports-to absorbing Antwerp,
which took s,I49,s2I gallons in 1864; to
China and the Indies, that were content
with 34,33S; OF the new world in the Pacific
seas, which received in 1865 near 1000, 600
gallons. Where, ten years sgo, were scrag-
" lands bordering narrow streams, reject
ant to yield a harvest, has gushed forth q
stream Of wealth more abundant than any
that ever came from the Golden Rocky
Mountains, and giving every prospect Of as
great ~peTmaneuce."
What is true Of Western Pennsylvania, is
equally so Of Tennessee; indeed we believe
this State is a far better petroleum center
than is the Allegheny valley. This spring,
and next summer, will, we feel confident,
demonstrate this, and as a result, the wealth
Of Tennessee will be increased to an enor-
nous extent.

A TREE WORTH sos, 0O0-A remark
able tree was brought to New York in
the month of January, 1866, from 8
Western State. 1t was black walnut,
seventy feet long, measuring 1900 feet
board measure; but when cut into We.
neers, it would be thirty times that,
making $4,000 feet, which At twenty
cents, would be worth S27 900. The
cost Of cutting and placing it IN store
for sale, would be about 800. Black
walnut, for the last six years, has been
gradually taking the lead of mahogany.
and is worth as much now as mahoga
ny was formerly. The figure most
sought for at present is a stripe, which
seems to be formed by the saps, cast
ing dark and light shades alternately
through the tree, which, when worked
makes the most beautiful furniture
| that is manufactured.
