I notice in the papers that the. Teie-

their dispatches to the New York Asso-

net discontinue their very interesting
dispatches to the Memphis press. Ii
they do, it will be a depl0TG6le state Of
affairs, as We will not then be promptly
advised OF who got his nose mashed at q

Of a vile or husband when and hoe

cold, and how often he blew his nose.
P. ease request him to give US the infor-
nation. 1t is important that we should
know by telegraph. The people feel
suoh a deep interest in that, and all SINH
Jar information, they are impatient.
The dog killing season is over in New
York. The reporter advised US promptly
hoy many were killed, and We have
oeen a~nxiously awaiting to know now
many were yeUOw, how many 6TindIeS,
and how many had rings around their

as it don't cost you anything TO get this
valuable information by telegraph. We
are on tiptOe TO know when the next rat

how many each dog killed, and the am

Tell him We don't want to know any
thing about important moves in Con-
gress, or elsewhere in the political world;
nor anything about the manufacturing
or financial interest Of the na{ln. All
such things are dUU, and if they charge
anything for such dispatches, it is money

Interesting letter from a Plsiia-

We are indebted to Mr.. Nelson, Presl-
| dent Of the Chamber OF Commerce, and
Capt. Ross, Superintendent OF the Mem
phis and Charleston Railroad, for the
following letter in references to the Pa
ciGc Railroad from Memphis, which we
give 10 cur readers as . matter Of great

LINN COUNTY, KANSAS
DECEMBER 2, 1868.
". J. Ross, Esq, General superintendent Mem
pals and Charleston Railroad:
Dear SIR: / am glad TO hear that some
action is about being taken by the con-
meeting railroad interests Of the States Of
Tennessee and Kentucky in reference to
the construction of q rail route over the
32d parallel Of latitude. l am glad to
see If, and fer this reason:
l have been over the route, and have
instTumentaliy examined the country
vest Of the Rio Grsnde, with the view
Of asceTtsining lis prscticAbility for the
construction of q railroad. ! have ex-
aminea much Of the ground between the
Mississippi river and the prominent Pa
cifc porte, San Francisco and San Diego,
and very we'll do l know the country
west of the Rio Grande and the Pacific
coast in the vicinity OF the 32d parallel.
A rail connection from Charleston or
Savannah, via Memphis, Little Rock
and Fort Arbuckle, thence TO the head
waters OF the Red river, crossing the
Rio Grande at or near Old Fort Thorn,
thence via Fort Cummings, Tuson or the
San Pedro TO the Gila river, down the
ella to Fort Yuma, thence branching to
San Francisco and to Ssn Diego, is one
OF the most desirable TCgtes that can be
conceived Of.
1t gives a line of rail that can be ope-
rated ut ali seasons Of the year regard
less Of SHOWS or extreme cold weather,
and beside the shortest rail connection
that can be butt THROUGH THE STATES
between any Of the Atlantic and Pacific
porls, snd no greater length OF road to
Guild than is yet required to complete
some Of the other already partly finished
Union Pacific Railroads.
l would be glad If you will, on receipt
OF this, give NE g statement showing the
shortest rail connection between Charles
ton and Little Rock, and Savannah and
Little Rock sepaTatsly-the length Of
each connecting road, with their termini.
] would be glad TO promote the enter
prise above referred to, and will give
YOU any information on the subjset you
desire that l can.
