| NATIONAL RAILROAD CONNECTING THE ATLANTIC

ect of connecting the Atlantic with the Pacifi,
| Ocean, contains many valuable and important sug
gesons, which, in our present relations with CHI
ma, will doubtless receive the grave considerable
of the members of both Houses Of Congress.

at any given point in the Union, in the short space
of eight days. Mr.. w. speaks confidently Of Tho
completion of the railroads from New York t.
