WASHINGTON. April 17.-The second
dsyst debate upon the naval approprla-
ton bill in the House to-day was comm
ed closely TO the subject matter OF the
bill and was, as a rule, devoid OF inter-
esting features. The questions OF arinor
plat. and building of warships III govern

most attention
The sneakers to-day were: Messrs. Day
ton. OF West Virginia: Loudenslager, of

Der of the Naval Committee, the first
speaker, contended that the naval pro-
sran,ne outlined in the bill was not an
extravagant one. He predicted that
larger appropria tons would be required
in the future. He opposed the building

Mr.. Wheeler, of Kentucky, asked II

PRESIDENT WILLIAMS TALKS.
Connecting Links Of the Seabord Fin
iSheu This Week.

iSbeu IhlS week.
PORTSMOUTH, VA, April 17.-Presi-
dent John SHELTON Williams. of the Sea-
board Air Line system, to-day made the
following announcement:
Our plans for .the formation of the
Seoboard Air Line System. embracing
between $500 and 5000 miles of road, have
been Successfully completed.
Tomorrow night we finish the track
laying on the new line from Richmond
via Petersburg to Ridgeway, N. c., JOB
miles, and Saturday will witness the
completion OF the ninety mile extension
from Cheraw, S. c., the southern termi-
nus of the Seaboard Air Line. to tae
junction of the Florida Central and Pen
insular Railroad south of Columbia, s.
c., thus completing a new all rail line
from Richmond, Va, to Tampa, Fla.
.Under our plan OF sonSoIida ton the
total amount of bonds outstanding on the
combined system Will be at $4,000 per
mile, with S7,GnJ per mile of preferred
stock and $1,000 per mile of common
stock. The total amount of stock out
standing on the new Seaboard Air Line
System Will be about s44, 000, Geo. Neither
our syndicate nor railway company in
the entire system. nor any allied corpora
ton owes one dollar to any bank, bank
ers or trust company in New York, Phil
adelphia or Boston.
f The actual aggregate earnings Of the
several properties composing the new
Seaboard system for the twelve months
ending March 1st, 1860, exceed $3.50, Geo;
net earnings, after the payment of
operating expenses and taxes, exceed
s., 10000 and the fixed charges on the
T system for the same period. including in
terest on all outstanding bonds and rent
ais, amount approximately 81. $50 OG0, leay-
ing a net surplus for the twelve months
over and above interest charges OF one
million two hundred thousand dollars. In
terest charges on the entire amount of
new per cent. bonds. which are to be
issued under the plan of consolida ton,
will amount to only about 100000. 1t is
thus seen that without making any al
iowance for the two or three hundred
miles of new road which are to be open
ed for business in the next few days, and
without making allowances for the in
creased earnings and reduced expenses
which will naturally follow the linking
together into one compact system of the
eighteen heretofore disjonted railroads
comprising it. the earnings of the past
twelve months are enough to take care
of the interest on all the new bonds to
be issued. and yet have margin. of half
a million dollars or sufficient to pay 8
per cent. on the entire amount of new
preferred stock to be issued under the
plan of consolidation
