rHEsoUrHrR. PACIFIC RAuLROAD.

h SOUTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD,
By the courtesy Of Mr. J. T. TREE
Want, one OF the Representatives OF
Memphis In the National Board Of TreGe,
now ia session at Cincinnati, we are able
to give our readers, this morning, the
encouraging news that the Nationsl
Board will agree upon and recommend
for adoption by Congress, the Southern
Pacific Railroad from Fort Smith. In
view Of the combinations OF last winter,
and the efforts OF interested parties in
behalf OF the international and other
routes likely to interfere with the true
Interests and the growth of Memphis,
this news inspires US with the hope that
by anything ike unity OF effort on the
part Of cur representatives in Copsr6ss
and those who may this winter be In
Washington on business from this sec
ton. 8 reasonable subsidy may be OBJ
tanned and The work of construction be
commenced st once.
No more important enterprise than
this has ever been or can be suggested
OF projected for Memphis. Setting
aside the impcrtsnt fact Of the immense
Pacific trade, which, during the winter
months, will most certainly hnd its way
hreugh our city, the local trade and
traffic to follow upon the completion OF
SO much Of the route as is located be-
tween this city and Fort Smith will, 10
three years, be fully equal to threc-iourtbs
the whole trade OF Memphis at this time.
A region Of country drained by tie
White, st. Francis and Arkansas rivers,
and now only to lie reached by boats st
certain seasons Of the year, will then be
brought within easy distance of Mem
phis and be made permanently tributary
to her whereas now the people OF that
sect<n are the prey Of ST. Louis, Louis
vile, and other distant cities with the
means and enterprise to compete with
US By bosts, low freights Rnd cheap
goods. But Il is not necessary to repeat,
st this time, facts that have been SO
often ard so thoroughly set forth. We
sIlude to the subject, more with & view
to revive the interest Of our people in
the project than to discuss possibilities
that are only limited by our capacity to
entertain them. We will, however, urge
an immediate organized effort In regard
TO the Pacific Railroad, as more worthy
the character of the people of Memphis,
and as promising greater results than
any other Railroad enterprise now OF the

IN q paragraph upon the meeting o.
the Electoral College, q report of which
we publish this morning, the Nashville

ton was made as to the eligibility Of Mr.,

at large, who is i~nterdic!ed from serving
as eIectOr by the fourteenth amendment
