Railway to the Pacific,

The opening of new railway rou'jes moans
mere farms to be worked, more tools to
be made, more labor to be hired, more food lo
be bought. Every merchant, mechanic, farmer,
and laborer hai, therefore, a direcjt Interest In
the apeedy completion of the great PaciBc
Railway, which fa to bring fnto market the
aat and fruitful tracta of tUe great Western
plains, with all their luxuriant products, and
la to afford apeedy and sale transportation of
persona and property to (be hitherto almost
Inaccesblble mountain territories. It Is a mat
ter of public Intel ebt that another link In this
national chain has been put under contract for
apeedy completion. Already the Pacific Rail-
roal ot Missouri conveys me Havener zau
miles, from 8t. Louis ti Kansas City, whence
the Mishourl River Railroad (leased by the
Pacific Railroad Company tor a term of years)
will carry nim to tort Lieaveowortn. From
Kansas City the Union PaciOo Railway proper
will further convev blm 140 miles to Fort R'lev
and Junction City, a distance of 420 miles from
me aiarung-poini upon me Mississippi, xuus
liom the eastern limits of Niw England
to the very heart ot Kansas, there is a con
tinuous line oi rail, wltn no intervening: break
whatever -an advantage which no otner route
to the great West can now offer.
From Junction City the line lsto be rapidlv
extended. A contract has been entered into tor
the completion of a distance of 260 miles by
January 1, 18ti8; the Iron for 66 miles being already
purchased, and in process of delivery. When
inis conn act is completed, there will remain
leas than 200 miles between tne locomotive's
whistle and the shadow of the Rocky Mountains
at Denver City. It will thus be seen that, in a.
j line more loan one, year irom tms time, mere
will be a railroad In operation for a distance of
670 miles west irom the great commercial city
f 8t. Louis.
Junction City, the present terminus of the
Union Pacific Railway, s now the starting-point
for the overland stago and express lines to
Denver, Salt Lake City, and Santa Fe.
A meeting was held recently at Pittsburg, at
which the contract above mentioned was entered
Into. At that meeting, many of the leading
railroad minda of the country were present, aud
expressed their determination to carry this great
work forwxrd with the utmost diligence. Such
men as Colonel Thomas A. Scott, of the Penn
sylvania Railroad, Thomas L. Jewett, of the
Pittsburg and gteubenville, aud Judge Hugh J.

nison, R. M. Shoemaker, and W. II. Clement, of
unio, anajonn u. retry, u. s. Ure?ley, and
others ot St. Louis, are not the men to enter
Into any unwise or impracticable scheme, nor,
bavins entered upon any great work, to suffer
It to langnish in their hands. Mr. Shoemaker
was at that time appointed Chief Engineer of
Construction on the work, end Colonel Wright
(General Sherman's Chief Engineer iu the At
lanta campaign) holds the position of General
Superintendent.
We have here no space to attempt any esti
mate of the great results which will follow the
completion of this railroad route from the At
lantic to the Pacltic. By means of the overland
mail and the ra lway. so far as completed, let
ters are, even now, being carried from Denver
to New York in five days a speed never before
accomplished nor attempted. The celerity of
movement of which this is but a sample has
caused the trans'er to this route of the great
British letter mail for China via San Francisco.
Tne great advantage possessed by this route,
as we have stated above, is the fact that there
is by it no woari-ome staging between isolate J
sections oi rail, but a continuous line of rail
road from the Eastern 8tates to the furthest
point yet reached by the iron horse.
Indications of Danger,
From the Timet.
From one great source of peril consequent
upon the suppression of the Rebellion, the
country has escaped with an ease that reflects
honor upon the American people. The dls
bandment of the armies and the, return of hun
dreds of thousands of soldiers to the pursuits of
peaceful lite, produced none of the difficulties
which the most hopeful considered probable.
Beyond this, danger was not apprehended.
With the Rebellion ended and the armed men
on both sides dispersed, no fear were felt as
to the constitutional process of restoring the
Union.
Events have not harmonized with these antici
pations. Where trouble was feared, none
occurred. Where smooth sailing was looked
forward to. the most serious embarrassments
have been presented. The gallant fellows who
bore the flag of the Union to victory did not,
alter all, complete the restoration of national
unity. Their suppression of the Rebellion was
out a preliminary to a renewal of the coniiict in
another shape. Where the soldier left off, the
politicians beRan. And to day, after eighteen
months of nominal peace, we are without the
guarantees of the real, enduring quiet which
1Jle wr was supposed to have secured.
If the delay aud the uncertainty incident to
It concerned only the politicians, the peoolo
generally might safely keep on their way. and
exercire no thought about it. Or if the delay
merely affected Industrial and commercial inte
rests, disturbing ledger-balances or impeding
local development, it might be submitted to as a
loss which future activity would soon over
come. Unfortunately, however, evils of another
character are experienced, the non-rcstora-llon
of the Union jeopardizes all business, aud
lntuses into all enterprises more or less of the
nature ot gambling. Worse still. It furnishes
n opportunity lor agitation which partisan

probably culminate in riot and bloodshed ? The
tfV..A i a . . ,un'Bsionersana the police,
wTbound In duty to respect and uphold the law
are banded together to defy it. to resist U n
plication, and to consUtutJVhdr parthan con
vcnlence and profit the standard of orler and
lot alty to the State of Marj land. The Governor
is vested with lawful authority lo hear com
plaints against the Commissloiiirs, and if neces
sary to punish them by removal. Coroolalnts
are brought in flue form bf lore him, and these
he cannot iieelfct. But the Commissioners
reluse to racognlze his authority, declaro that
they win appear only belore a tribunal of their
own choosiDg, and prepare by force of arms to
maintain themselves in oflice. If wrongi d, the
pame Inw which makes the Governor their l iiio
when the Legislature Is not in (.e.ision, provides
them means of redress; lha law will sustain
t hem in their otliccs It they are entitled to hold
tlem; and justicomttjht thus be secured without
prejudice to the peace ol the community.
Why the difficulty then f Simply to promote
the ends of the radical faction. To do this,
Baltimore has lor seveial das ben placed on
the verge ol a bloody riot. There has been no
waltlnsr for the operation of the law; no token
ot reliance upon its power. As though con
scious that the law I against them, the Com
missioner?, currying out the radical will, have
from the Crut avowed a determination to rely
exclusively upon brute force. A mob has been
organized, disclplincn, and armed to maintain
Die Commissioners as nuaimt the law. And
since the authoiity of the Governoc must be
vindicated, if need be by force, no special
faculty is required to comprehend the peril
which threatens the peace of a populous city.
One indiscreet act on either cide may in an in
stant revive on the soil of Maryland the horrors
ol New Orleans.
II such a catastrophe be averted, our thanks
will not be duo to the radicals of Baltimore or
their friends in negbbonng cities. Not only in
Baltimore, but in W ashington and Philadelphia,
has there been a perhteLt ctlort to encourage
the Commissioners in their defiant attitude, and
to prepare the country for the bepiDnini; of
another civil war. Appeals have beeu made to
"Bos in Blue" to hold themselves ready to
march Into Baltimore to aid in rcisting the
authority of the law. In short, certain radic il
leaders, having taken unto themselves a richt to
overrule the law, have busied themselves in
doing all i hat is possible to evoke the mob
spirit. If a new revolution bo not inaugurated
by riot at Baltimore, it will not be because
prominent radicals have not been willing to
promote it.
pas from Maryland to.Louisiana, and we have
another version of the same story. In Mary
land a conservative Governor is called upon to
try and perchance remove radical Commis
sioners. In Louisiana a radical Governor talks
ofremoving pro-Rebel Snrriils and there, as in
Jtiaryian.i, preparations nave oecnmaae to resist
and dety the law. The Sheriffs are charged
with neelectiner or relusins to perform their
duties when pro-Rebel defendants are involved;
and an arme 1 organization has beeu formed to
co-operate with them. Tney proclaim a purpose
to tight rather than submit to removal; and
lawless "Bos in Grey" throughout. the State
are appealed to for succor. Governor Wells
muet recede or tne snentid must succuruD, or a
conflict Is inevitable. .
lu both cases the animating spirit Is the
same. It is the spirit of lawless violence, work
ing upon paitUanship and passion, and creating
excitements from wnich there seems but scanty
cnimces ot a peacetul eicape.
The picture niwlu be extended al.nost inJeli
nitely. Its details ditlor according to the
locality. But in more instances then we care
now to enumerate, the volcanic elements to
which we have udverted are at work. They are
pregnant with danirer, and the country aught
not to be unmindful ot their existence and their
power.
The New Foreign Policy of the Admin
istration,
From the Herald.
The Administration, which has been for some
time under a cloud, we have reason to believe
will soon emerge into the full blaze of the noon
day sun. Experience is an exacting teacher,
but he is wise who accepts her lessons at any
cost President Johnson is evidently ot this
opinion; for we think it may be proclaimed as a
result of the late elections that he has resolved
upon a new departure that will bring his Ad
ministration again into the foreground, an t into
a happy accord with Congress and public
opinion on the leading national questions of
the day. Leaving the Constitutional amend
ment for the present to take its course, we un
derstand that Mr. Jobation has decided without
further delay to turn over a new leaf and open
a new chapter in reference to our unsettled
accounts againEt England and France. Indeed,
it would appear, from the numerous reports set
afloat from Washington on the subject, thatuot
only has this new departure been resolved upon,
but that the initial step towards its execution
have already been taken.
Thus it is given out that in relation to our
claims against England on account of the late
pit aticat depredations upon our commerce by
such Anglo-Rebel buccaneers as the A'a&ama
and t-henandoah, a positive requisition lias been
stnt out to our minister, Mr. Adams, at London,
to be by him laid belore Lord Stanley, her
Majesty's present Secretary of State lor Foreign
A flairs. From a recent speech ot Lord Stanley
and the latest views oithe London Times on
this matter, there is ground for the opinion that
to this alleged demand Irom our Government
there will be a satisfactory response. In any
event, coupled with the alternative ol the seizure
of the Canadas and the adjoining provinces, the
demand is a sure card tor the Administration.
With the recognition and settlement of toe
claims, our Government will be vindicated and
placed in its proper attitude before the American
people and the world, so far as England and the
controversy of belligerent, neutral and insur
rectionary rights on the high seas are concerned.
With a fiat rejection ot our demand, a call fir
volunteers tor a descent upon the Canadas
would rally witbin a tortnieut a nunlred
thousand fighting Fenians along the border,
and, according to Geueral Sherman, six weeks
by this process would settle the Canadian ques
tion. With England it is the concession of
some thirty millions of dollars, more or less,
and the maritime rights involved lu the dispute,
or tne toss 01 ho empire; wnueto our Adminis
tration there will be the honors and the glory of
a great inumpii upon enner alternative.
In regard to France and the Mexican Im

reported, the Administration has agreed upon,
is, umi, me retirement ot tne rrencn usurpa

the recognition by France of the reoublic as

This line of policy In regard to Mexico will be

Maryland on the Brink of .Civil War.
J'Yom the World.
The proceedings commenced on Monday at
Annapolis before Governor Swann, and the
spirit of mob resistance which ptevailcd during
tbe day in Baltimore, are of grave and painful
import. If it were a mpre exhibition of local
lawlessness it would Ft ill be deplorable, but
would not have the portentous look which Is
given it by the encouragement of the radicals In
other States. Tne radieals of Pennsylvania, by
the inligation of Forney, are secretly preparing
to march in arms to Baltimore and aid the in
surgents In resisting the State and Federal
authorities. General Butler, so one of our cor
respondents informs us, has telegraphed to the
Police Commissioners stimulating them to resist,
and ottering to go to their aid at the heal of
ten thousand Massachusetts soldiers, who, he
says, would fly with alacrity to avenge the
Massachusetts blood shed in the streets ot Balti
more on the 19th of April, 18U1. Ui.less the
radicals aie tring to practise upon Governor
Swann by empty bravado, the whole party will
6ide with the Baltimore mob, and are ready to
pour out men, arms, and money to drench the
soil ot Maryland with the blood of her own
citizens.
In Baltimore itself public feeling i9 described
as running as hgh as it did at anytime durlug
the surging exc tement in the spriug ol 18G1.
Mobs aie already patrolling the streets, making
tbrea'ening demonstrations. Sesterday they
assailed the office ol a Democratic newspaper
the 'lransctiptr and tore down its bulletin buatd.
At the corners ot the streets, in the liquor
saloons, in every place where knots of men
assemble, tbev rave, and threaten, and gesticu
late, and Ian the rising flame of civil discord.
Governor Swann would lose his self-respect,
would expose himseir to the cou tempt of all
men of spirit, if he quailed belore these efforts
at intimidation. It is his dutv to DroceeJ
calmly with an impartial investieation of the
ch aides against the Commissioners, neither
allowing himself to bo prejudiced against them
by the violence ol their abettors, nor weakly
condor ing their oil nse if the evidence estab
liBtes their guilt. .
Thus lar, Governor Swann is clearly acting in
Eursuance of the law. anl the radicals arc
raving and deiying it. Sfforn charees have
been made, and the Governor cannot, it he
would, rei use to examine them. Tue Comrais
eioners dare not face the accusation, aud so
they deny the Governor's luiisdiction. Hon.
Rcverdy Johnson, the leader of tbe Maryland
bar, and perhaps the ablest lawyer in the coun
try, gives a written opinion shoeing that this
den al ol Jurisdiction is absurd. No lair minded
man ol good intelligence can read his opinion
without considering it as entirely con
clusive. To be sure, he does not prove
tho guilt of the Commissioners; that depeuds on
evidence jet to be produced. Hut he do?s
prove, by arguments which cannot be success
fully controverted, that the law would make
the Legislature the judge of their guilt, li the
Legislature were in session, and that tho Gov
ernor, in the recess of the Legislature, has pre
cisely the same powers. That the Police Co u
missioners choose to dispute a position so clear,
produces an impression a lite uufavorable to
their candor and their innocence. They have
deliberately determined to plunge the State in
the hoirors of civil war rather than submit to
a trial by an officer expressly clothed by the
law with authority to remove them lor mis
conduct. SPECIAL NOTICES.
