Overland to New York.

Everything connected with the progress OF
| the Pacific Railroad is of course of great in
terest TO your readers. The Central Pacific
Railroad is now completed 400 miles east OF
the Northern end of Salt Lake. Work is
being pushed forward at the rate of miles a
day. Exertions are making TO cover all the
snow sheds on the mountain portion of the
road, so that transportation across the Sierra
Nevada may not be interrupted during the
winter months. Wells, Fargo d Co. have an
advertisement fixing the time and price for
an overland trip to New York. The time re-
quired to reach New York is now IL days,
and the fare in greenbacks at $2S4 20, or in
gold at present rates would be about s216
If we add to this the cost of meals and occa-
sional sleeping over night say S25, We have a
total in gold of S241
Although there are some 400 miles of road
uncompleted, which must be made in stages,
yet the tide of travel is now turning in that
direction. Early in the spring, with present
rates of passage to New York, it is likely
that nearly all first class passengers will go
overland.
The New Directory for Is6s-9.
Henry G. Langley's new city Directory has
been issued. 1t is large volume of 7S6 PIP.
This is the tenth year of the publication of
the Directory, and its contents indicate the
growth of the city. The population of the
city in July, 1865, is 147,95O. The females
over IS are estimated at 10000 The present
issue contains nearly 6O,OO0 names, indicat-
ing an increase of nearly 40 per cent over
those of 1864 The book is furnished at the
usual price of IS. Why don't some of your
enterprising book men attempt the publica-
tion of Honolulu Directory, which might
be valuable for reference?
In this connection must mention the ap-
pearance of a neat work called the Hawaiian
Club Papers, published in Boston, and edited
by Committee of the Hawaiian Club of that
city. The book is just from the press. It
contains interesting articles from the pen of
z. P. Bond, James Hunnewell, E. w. Clark,
S. B. Dole, W. T. Brigham, and a Hawaiian
National Hymn by Mrs. Lila K. Dominis.
One of the most valuable papers in this book
is catalogue of works, published at, or re-
lating to the Hawaiian Islands, by W. 7.

General Mcclellan and the State

The Board of Regents of the University of
California have voted to extend an invitation
to General Mcclellan to accept the Presiden-
cy of that institution. This action of the
Board has called down the wrath of the en-
tire Republican press of the State, on ac-
count, particularly, Of the political antece-
dents of this defeated Democratic candidate
for the Presidency of the United States.
As a general, and as 4 political leader,
Mcclellan has proved a failure, and he has
never distinguished himself as an educator,
nor known to possess qualities which would
fit him for such position. His acceptance

The Battle of November Sd.
1t will not surprise your readers, nor the
dwellcrs in any other part of the world, to
learn that the National Republican Party
were the victors at the late battle at the polls
on the Sd inst, and that the will of the peo-
pie elevates Grant and Colfax to the highest
offices of the Republic.
One of the most exciting campaigns in the
history of this nation was brought to close
on the Sd instant in quiet and orderly man.
ner. The day in this city was warm and
pleasant, business was generally suspended,
and citizens gave themselves to the work at
the ballot boxes. Great precautions had been
taken by the authorities by engaging special
police and recognizing the old force, SO as
TO preserve order on the day of election, and
nothing worthy of notice transpired except
few small fights, and arrests for drunk and
illegal voting. A count of votes at the close
of the day showed that the Democrats had
carried the city," But they will not carry
it very far, as the Republican party elected
their chief of police. This city and county
gave 400 majority for Seymour and Blair,
but the whole State, when the returns are all
in, win show between GOO and 200 majority
for Grant and Colfax. IT has been close
fight in the State between the two parties,
and the Republican party deserve great credit
for their victory over the legitimate and lille
gitimate votes of an inscriptions party, and
California cannot now be called Democratic
State as it proved itself last year by the cleo
tion of a Democratic Governor
The States known to have given majorities
for Seymour are Delaware, Maryland, Ken
lucky, New Jersey, New York, Georgia, Ar
kansas, Louisiana, and perhaps Oregon.
The whole number of votes in the EIecto-
raj College from the thirty-four States which
participated in the Presidential election is
294. Grant has probably carried twenty-five
States, representing 2O9 votes or 81 more than
a majority. The popular majorities for Grant
are not definitely enough stated to warrant
comparison with those cast for Lincoln in
1864.
