Railway Matters.

The Philadelphia Age has the following remarks upon Col. Scott'S railroad pro- gramme: "There are now two great inter- ocean railroad routes which claim atteE- tion-the Atlantic and Pacific, and the Texas and Pacific. The former route is g. 713 miles long; the latter 1875, and they both virtually center in Philadelphia and New York, the latter having also a CO., terminus at Savannah or Brunswick, in Georgia or Charleston, South Carolina. To the former has been given by the govern ment 4955S,0lS acres of land; to the latter r GOO 000. Of the former 368 miles are finished; of the latter, 3l5. That one or the other of these roads is not at present needed, seems certain. That both would pay after completion, is more than doubt ful. That, therefore, the construction of both, if this be possible, might be the ruin atiOn of both, is a reasonable conclusion. That they could feasibly be united, is ab- SOlutely certain; and that they should be seems a matter of business prudence as well as private and national economy. To unite them is the plan of Colonel Tom Scott. The conjunction would save the construction of 300 miles of railroad, worth, in the aggregate, at least S57 100000, besides saving to the government for the people 30,000,000 acres of land, worth, at the very least, S37, TT, ,777-the total saving, S94.777, TIT, Per contra, the government would have to guarantee the interest at five per cent. on about Sl0,250,000 bonds annually, estimating the completion of three hundred miles of road each year at the average of $37 300 per mile. This in- terest annually would be S5l2,500, or $2,- 562 ,5OO in five years, by which time 1,50O miles would be completed, or all the road. Moreover, both roads cannot be built, while a junction will make the resultant one certain. This must conduce to the development of all Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and Southern California-their opening to the world; and the advance ment of the interests of Louisiana, Arkan- sas, Missouri, Mississippi, Alabama, Geor- ing the trade of Philadelphia, if Philadel- phia only keeps thoroughly alive to her own interests, of which she has lost sight for long time."
