Railroad Prospects.

As frequent inquiries are made con-
corning the progress and prospects Of
the III. & NJ. R. Al. R. r., we take
pleasure in saying that the prospect is
indeed most encouraging. The en-
terprising contractors, Messrs. A.
Fream and ID. X. Oyster 4 Co, have
done large amount Of work on the
first division, commencing at West
Quincy, have the roadway clear
through the timber, and rOad-bed,
for the most part, up to grade, while
several miles Of grading on the prairie
bottom, towards Lagrange, have been
pushed rapidly forward. The fall has
been exceedingly unfavOrsble for their
operations, in consequence of eXces-
sfve rain, the soil being clammy, black
clay; but when grading was impracti-
cable, they have turned their force
into the timber, and thus, by alternate
grading and clearing, have accom-
plished q vast deal OfWOrk amid unto
ward surroundings.
With the opening of spring, they
will have upon the line two steam ex-
eavators and a much stronger force,
and during next season viii push
their contract rapidly toward compile
tion. Just now, the timber on the
line between Canton and LaGrange,
is being cleared. and ere long we hope
to see busy wOrkmen in our vicinity,
preparing the way for the iron horse.
Recent assurances from strong east
ern railroad companies have been Civ
en- that the iron and rolling-stOck viii
be forthcoming as soon as needed, and
we see nothing now to prevent an ear
" completion Of this great enterprise.

A Better Prospect in Prices Of
wheat.

The Chicago Tribune of the 4th inst.
says: 1.-THE wheat crop Of Great Brit
ain was an ample one, and the de-
mand on the United States was so
much reduced during the fall that
prices declined rapidly, the downward
course of the market being made more
extensive by the financial stringency
which followed the locking up of so
much capital in October and NOvem-
Der last by the New York railroad
rings. But the great drOuth Of the
summer in the British Isles, though
favorable to the growth of wheat, OPP
Grated most disastrously on the root
crops, and it is now found that the
farmers there have been feeding the
wheat so literally that their cattle and
hogs are beginning to seriously dimin-
ish the quantity on hand, thus ma
king the "Old country" much more
dependent on US for the supply of the
coming summer than has heretofore
been deemed possible. Private adj
vices to this effect were received in
our market yesterday, and the eOnse-
quence was q material advance in the
price of wheat. 1t is not we'll to be
too sanguine, but the indications now
are that our grain owners will yet be
reimbursed for the losses of the past
six months by considerable appre-
citation of this important cereal!'

Every editor of a paper will appre-

sage from some Of the writings OF
Capt. Marriatt 1T is not the writing
of the leading article itself, but the
obligation to write the article every
day (or week whether inclined OF
not, in sickness or in health in aff1ie-
ton, disease of the mind, winter and
summer, year after year, tied down to
the task, remaining in one spot. 1t is
something like the walking of thou
sand hours. / have a fellow feeling,
for I know how q periodical will wear
down ones existence. In itself it APP
pears nothing; the labor is not mani
fest; nor is it the labor, but it is the
continued attention which it requires.
Your life becomes, as it were, the pub
lication. One days (Or week's) paper
is no sooner corrected and printed,
than on comes another. 1t is the tone
of Sysiphus and endless repititiOn Of
toll constant weight upon the intel
lect and spirit demanding all the ex-
ertions of your faculties, at the same
time that you are compelled 70 do the
severest kind of drudgery. To write
for a newspaper is very well, but to
edit one is to condemn yourself to sla-
very. Ali of which is true as preach
ing.

A Boston journal, the Common
1UeaEth, makes the rather exaggerated
statement that every afternoon after
three o'clock some twelve to fifteen
United States Senators are so drunk
that they are unable to attend to busi-
ness. The Washington correspondent
of the Missouri Democrat also says that
"the coming session of Congress will
see the certain death and entOmbment
of three men now in the United States,
all from drink. Take away the pay
and good clothes of these three men,
and they are already tavern suckers
and parasites of the most abject sort.
l saw one of them at a friends house,
only yesterday, ask for a glass of
whisky as soon as he entered. He took
it with both hands, which shook and
rocked rather as in some theatrical ex-
aggeration of drunkenness than in
the real light of common life, and to
see his greedy lips slip by the glass's
edge, cheated like Tantalus by his own
nerves, was dreadful. He is no worse
than two others; but happily his term
expires on the 4th of March.

A citizen Of Springfield, Mass, in a
private letter from New Orleans, says
chat 1.-The people Of New Orleans are
terribly poor. More money is received
for cotton and sugar than ever before,
but it goes direct into the hands Of the
labOring millions, thence through
country dealers, into pockets Of whole
sale dealers in different cities. New
Orleans was supported heretofore by
the money of tens of thousands of
planters, who, with their families,
would spend a part of each winter
here, and make a vast retail trade.
Now the people are eating each other
up, and viii continue to do so until
the people in the country make two or
three crops"

AT a party one evening, several con-
tending for the honor of having done
the most extraordinary thing, a rev
erend gentleman was appointed sole
judge Of their respective pretensions.
One produced his tailOris bill, with
a receipt attached to it. A buzz went
through the room that this could not
be OutdOne, when a second proved
that he had just arrested his tailor for
money lent to him.
The palm is his" was the generous
cry, when a third put in his claim.
"Gentleman,n he said, ST cannot
boast of the feats of my predecessors,
but 1 have returned to the owners two
umbrells that they left at my house. y

ished arbitrator. "This is the very

of which I never knew any one capa-

There are two names omitted, and
those of worldwide fame, viz. Geo.

S. Key, the latter the author of ''The
Star-Spangled Banner" and the for
mer the great philanthrOpist Of the

and spunger Of gun No. 1. I have
often heard him speak of the fight
with the British frigates, on the Poto-
mac, when this company was acting
under command of either Commodore
Perry or Commodore Morris. Mr.. Pea
body, in one Of his visits to his native
country, obtained a land warrant for
one hundred and sixty acres, for his

ton to have it framed and hung up in

But II you choose TO hear me tell
Pray listen while fix the date.
When daughters haste with willing feet,
"A mothers daily toll to share;
Can make the puddings that they eat,
And mend the stockings which they wear
When mafdens look upon a man
Asn himself they would marry:
And not as army soldiers scan

When gentle ladies, who have got
The offer of alOver's hand,
Consent to share his earthly lot, !"
And do not mean his lot Of land.
When young mechanics are allowed
TO find and win the farmers girls.
Who don't expect to be endowed
With Tubies, diamonds and pearls.
When wives, in short, shall freely give
Their hearts and hands to aid their spouses
And live as they were wont to live,
Within their Sires' one story houses.
Then, madam--if am not too old
ReiOiced to quit this lonely life.

And look about me for a wife!

entertainment Of the amateurs. The bills

This is Il disappointment to many for the

TYRoLEE COLONY.-Thc successful csia-

cmgrantS near our city, is Il tact which, in

The Alpenbur@ Colony, 50 called from

Austria, is one which must raise our hopes
with regard to the future Of our old state.
About Il year ago the Baron Of Ajpenburg
purchased i'll Henrico county, five miles be-
low Richmond, the land which the colonists
now occupy. There are twenty-seTcn per
sons living in the infant colony. On last
week the brother OF Baron Mahl arrived
with the Rev. Mr.. Pa>ch, Il Catholic clergy
man, and two other families. Twenty other
families are maxim" preparations 10 come
to the colony, but they will not leave Tyrol
before ne st spring.
Those who are here are engaged III making
themselves comfortable, and in establishing
themselves in such 4 manner rs leaves no
doubt rs to their intention TO relna!n per"
manentlv.
\ church and Il school are about to be
built, which will alleviate III 4 great mca-
sure the difficulty the Baron experienced IN
getting persons to come out here. Eicn
family has its own spall but comfortable
dwelling. They have in the young colony
Il store Gnd their own lrauC>lilcl, cuEpeh-
ter, Il tailor, and Il bootmaker. They seem
equal to every emergency, and destined TO
add to the prosperity and future greatness
of Old Virginia. They purpose planting
vineyard, aud are making preparations to
have vines brought over from Tyrol.
They find the soil and climate such as in
iuces them 10 look for the most successful
results in the grape culture. Our climate IS
also very pleasant to them, and they enjoy
as good health ns among their own hills.
They seem to be a very intelligent people,
and are fast acquiring 4 knowledge OF the
manners and language OF our people.
