THE RAILROAD.

It is now conceded that the Railroad will
be completed for 20 miles, Clackamas bridge
included, by. the first Of the next month.
Two new locomotives are on the way, pass.
enger car will be put upon the road, and it
is reported that tirst.class boat will be put
upon the river to connect with the road rs il
progresses. Enough iron is purchased to
reach Albany, aud to this point the contrac.
tor will extend the track before the expira.
tion of twelvemonth. In all Of this the
public have the deepest interest. But the
citizens of Albany have particular interest
in securing the location of the line through
or near the city. And without considera-
tion is paid for it the deviation will not be
made. Perversity, however, is one of the
peculiarities of human nature. Thus, among
the men most to be profted by the estah-
fishing of depot here, are some least will
ling aud least likely to contribute towards
the inducement. This class Of speculative
town lot proprietors may wake up some day
to find their corner lots Of no earthly use
except for agricultural purposes.
If Albany should give 100000 t. secure
the road, it would be about ten ner cent of
her property, and as a result of the invest
ment, she may reasonably expect that prop,
erty to double its yalue Immediately We
cannot afford tn remain passive. Every dol
lar withheld from this object, if the object
is defeated is dollar many times multiplied
to keep the road away. 1t amounts to this.
since the single million without the road
will soon shrink one-half or less.
1t is the sheerest nonsense to say that the
road aust come this way. 1t is not obliged
to exchange straight line for a crooked
one. and city that has not enterprise enough
to dig water ditch or aha;e nuisance is
not likely to prosecute Furnishing rivalry
with a railroad village. These remarks are
intended only for the drones. It is pretty
certain that the enterprising spirit is abroad
for the once and that real effort will be
made for the road. We trust it will be a
e-editable one

HoLD BACK Youn oorros .AAgentle.

HOLD BACK YouR GoTroN IA gentle
man just returned from New York, has
had great experience us IA cotton buyer,
and has really done nothing else since
the war closed, Informed the Macon
Telegraph that the planters of the South
were now playing into the hands Of the
spectators most admirably, in rushing
their cotton on the market. 1t was just
what the New York spectators and buy
ers wanted. Three weeks ago cotton was
firm in New York at 35 cents per pound
but just so soon rs the planters got ready
to sell, the price reccded to 30 aud 80
cents, with u strong effort on the part Of
the bears to still further reduce i. This
gentleman stated that there was not a
cotton buyer in New York, of any in
tclligcnce or reliability, who does not be-
lieve that cotton will go to 80 or 40
cents per pound in that market By or be-
fore tho first of next May; aud they
cundidly and opculy express such au
opinion among themselves ;and are laugh
ing in their sleeves at the rush the plan
ters are now making upon the market.
Just so soon as the bulk of the cotton
crop is out of the hands OF the plauters,
and a close guess can be made of the,
years crop, then you will see Il reaction
in the price that will astonish you. This
gentleman expressed real modification
and shame ut the manner in which the
planters were blindly injuring themselves
just nov, and expressed the belief that
even before Christmas they would rue
their present suicidal policy.
