Pacific Railroad on the 35th Parallel
Route.

Senator b. Gratz Brown Of Mo, has
introduced a bill in Congress, for the
construction ofa Railroad to the Pacific
on the 35th Parallel Route to be known as
the Southern Pacific Railroad COmpa-
n.y." The route authorized by the bill
to be laid out, is the one heretofore advo-
Gated by the Hon. John s. Phelps, when
a member of Congress from the Spring
field, Mo, district. We copy the follow
ing in relation to il from the st. Louis
RepuMican:
ave have received copy Of the bill grant.
ing lands for the construction ofa railroad and
telegraph line from Missouri and Arkansas to
the Pacific coast by the Southern route, which
bill was introduced into the United States
Senate few days ago by Mr. Gratz Brown
and which Is now before the Committee on
the Pacific Railroad. The bill Incorporates a
Board Of Commissioners, composed Of Repre-
sentatives Of all the States to be known as the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company" The
route authorized TO be laid out and construct
cd is a. follows
beginning at or near the town Of SPRING
field, State OF Missouri thence to the western
boundary line of said State, and thence by the
most eligible railroad route as shall be deter
mined by said company to point on the Ca
madam river between the ninety-ffth and
ninety-eighth meridians; thence by way OF
the valley ofthc Canadian river and the head
waters of the Rie Pecos (ncar Anton Chico
to the town of AlbuerQue. on the River Del
Norte, and thence by way of the Aqua Frio
or other suitable pass. to the headwaters Ofthe
Colorado Chiquito. and thence along the thir-
ty-fifth parallel Of latitude. as near As may be
found most suitable for a railway route, over
the region embraced in the surveys made un-
der direction of the War Department by LIT.
Whipple, and Ed. F. Beal. EsG- to the Colora-
do river, at such point as may he selected by
said company for crossing; thence by way OF
the San GOrgOnio pass to San Diego, and by
the Tejou passes and the Tulare and San .Joa-
quin and their lateral valleys to the bay OF
San Francisco.
The company are empowered to construct q
branch from the point at which their road
strikes the Canadian river, eastwardly to q
point on the western boundary line of the Ar
kansas at or near the town of Van Buren and
to connect their road at the crossing of the
Colorado river by steamers with Giiyamas.-
The capital stock is Sl00.0O0,00O, with shares OF
500 each. Besides right of way, the bill
grants every alternate section of public land
not mineral. except iron and coal on each side
of the line, to the amount of twenty sections
to the mile through the Territories. and ten
sections on each side whenever it passes
through any State where the United States
have full title. The remaining provisions OF
the bill are similar to those of other railroad
charters.

Cotton Crop in Crawford County.

From all the information we can get,
we think the cotton crop for the present
year, in Crawford county will amount to,
considering the season an average one of
from three thousand to thirty-five hun
dred bales. This amount at twenty five
cents per pound, a small calculation in
fact, would realize an amount of upward
Of four hundred thousand dollars which
would render things easy in the county,
financially considered. Mr.. Newland in
forms us that he has already disposed OF
over eighteen hundred bushels of cotton
seed in this county. This will plant eight
cen hundred acres. He has disposed of
all his seed, but informs us that arrange
ments are being made to supply all with
seed that want
People throughout the country gener-
ally, are planting from five to forty acres
This will put a large amount of money
in circulation next winter.

The LAWYERS TEST OATH-In the
House of Representatives, says the Mis-
souri, Republican, on Monday, the 18th
ult., Thad Stevens one of the head Radi-
Gals in Congaess. introduced a resolution
that the Committee on Judiciary be in
structed to inquire into the expediency of
so amending the act Of January a, 1868
relating to the test oath, as to allow at
torneys -at-law to practice their profes-
sion without taking the said oath, on an
equal footing with all other profes-
siOns He said that the act in question
was passed during the war, and by which
attorneys were prohibited from practic-
inc unless they could take an oath that
they were not engaged in the rebellion
Since the war large number Of men en-
gagged in the legal profession are trying
to make living, but are prevented from
doing so by this law. He did not see
why they should be SO subjected to a
provision not applied to other profess
sions, and hence the inquiry.
The House adopted the resolution by
a vote 50 against II nays.

benediction to those who reached the
