raclfle Railroad Progress.
The area Pacific Railroad, aoout which so
much has been said already, assurni tha phase
of a sr. at fact, certain to be accomplished. Br
entrusting the wonderful enterprise to two treat
companies instead of one, It seems tbs under
iBJ i? .Wl11 be ho aooner carried through.
Ibe Union Paciac Railroad Company, buildm
the eastern half, have already pushed with
great energy their track to the loot
slopes of tha Rocky Mountain ranges,
having built over nve hundred miles of the
?"d bonV two years. The Central
raciflc Railroad Company, br-Rlnnins; at the
Pacific side and working eastward, hare accom
plished a more prodigious work, eren, in carry
ing their track across CalitonJa and over the
flieira Nevada ransre Into the Palt Lake Basin.
Although this work is all included within ono
hundred and fifty miles, in point of resistance
end difficulty overcome it is more tbau equiva
lent to all that bus been done on the eastern
end. The crossing is made by practical grades
at an elovatiorj of 7060 feet above ea level, and
a few days bence It is thought will witness the
passage 01 tne trains from the wharves oi Sacra
mento to the mines of Nevada. Already a loco
motive is on the eastern slope of the range.
It appears, moreover, that the Pacific Rail
road will not have to wait for the complete over
land connection to be on ado a paying Invest
merit, but it is in its beginning a ncanclil
success. This is especially true of the western
half, where there is already a large settlement
along its route; for U appears that, with the
track baited at the summit of the mountains,
whence the passengers and freight bad to be
transferred to stapes and wagous, the business
has beea so large during the past summer as to
bear comparison wlib the bestroadi of the
count ly, and so pioflitble as almost to chal
lenge belief. The inevitable traffic of such a
line, when completed, will obviously require a
double track at an eaily day, and even two sets
of tails within the next twenty years. When a
laborer or emigrant can be transported from
from Philadelphia to Kan Francisco for one
hundred dollars, we may expect wholesale
flitting to tne Kldoiado of the West.
It is well onderatoo 1 that the Government
furnHhes out of its credit a large proportion of
the means necenary to carry out this enterprise,
and the Caliiornlaus have generously added
greatly to the means for the construction of
their end ol it. All this will be repaid lour fold
in the development, prosperity, and good order
assured to our Western domain, to say nothing
of the enlargement of our trade with Eastern
Asia. The Central Pacific Company have an
aim? of; nearly 10,000 men employed on the
work, and expect to build about 260 miles across
the fralt Lake Basin during next year. This will
brine- the r road contiguous to the great gold
and silver mining region of the Halt Lake Basin;
and In 1870 we may hope to see the through
line finished.
The Central Pacific Railroad Company are
offeiing the first mortgage bonds of their road
for sale to persons seeking sate, desirable in
vestments. By reference to their advertisement
in another column, the foundation and assurances
of tho-e securities will be found fully set forth.
De Haven ft Brother, No. 40 8. Third street,
have at all times bonds, pamphlets, and the
latest iniormalion respecting tne road and its
progress.

Tito Motley Correspondence.
The Washington Chroniolt gives the following
synopsis of the correspondence between Secre
tary Seward and Hon. J. Lothrop Motley, late
United States Minister to Austria, which was
presented to the Senate on Wednesday, In ac
cordance with a resolution passed on the 26th of
November:
On the 18th of April last Secretary Seward
wrote to Minister Motley acknowledging the
receipt of his resignation, which had been laid
before the President and accepted, and stated
that, although the Senate had uotyet couflrined
his successor. It was deemed expedient to re
lieve him of further charee of the mission. Mr.
Motley, before leaving Vienna, was instructed
to present the Secretary of Legation as Charge
d'Aflalres ad interim, and commit to his custody
the archives and books.
On the 4th of May Mr. Motley replied, acknow
ledging the receipt of the letter, and stating
that through an 'oversight in the failure of the
department to send a transcript of the letter to
the Emperor, announcing the termination of
his duties, he was unable to oarry out the Sec
retary's instructions. On the 24th of May
the copy referred to was forwarded to Mr.
Motley, who on the 15th of June acknow
ledged receipt, and stated that the Secretary's
letter or May contained tne nrst ana only
acknowledgment of the- receipt of his letter
of the 11th of December previous, berglng re
spectfully to resign bis post. Upon the recep
tion of the letter of May 4, Mr. Motley informed
tne Minister ot f oreign Anairs, connaentiauy,
of Its contents, and also that the Secretary of
State had forwarded a sealed letter for
the Emperor, In which the President an
nounced the termination of his ( Minister
Motley's) functions,' and further made
a statement in regard to tne non-receipt
of the required transcript. On the 27th of May
Minister Motley received a letter from the
f inperor ot Austria to the effect that all the
chiefs of Foreign Missions accredited at the
Court, w ho would repair to the capital or Hun
gary to be present at the solemnity of the coro
nation, would be received by his Malesty.
Under the circumstances Mr. Motley did not
deem it proper to attend, and begged the Minis
ter of Foreign Affairs to convey to the Emperor
his deep regrets that the peculiar circumstances
of the case lei t the United States unrepresented.
On the morning of the coronation Mr. Motley re
ceived a despatch from the Department of State
Inclosing the transcript, and at once signified
bis desire lor an audience at which to present
the President's letter. Mr. Motley snboequeutly
received a reply stating that the Emperor
would receive htm on the lith of the month.
The Interview was held at the appointed time,
and Mr. Motley, after an address in which he
eipresscd his regrets that personal reasons
made it necessary for him to resign, and his
wishes for a long continuance of the friendly
relations between Austria and the Unltea
Stsles, delivered the President's letter.
The Emperor In reply expressed his sincere
regrets at Mr. Motley's departure, and added that
"he bad been constantly hoping that it would
be found possible to retain him at his post."
lie expressed his thanks to the Uuiled States
Government for their earnest Intercession in
behalf of his brother Maximilian au act of
international ' kindness of which he had
already, on a former occasion, signified
his profound appreciation and wbilo alluding
to his natural anxiety on the sublect, he
dwelt upon bis hopes for his brother's safety,
founded on his confidence in the generous aud
poweiful influence of the United States. After
some further conversation on general topics,
the Koijieror then bade him a cordial farewell.
On the nest day G. W. Lip pit t, Secretary of Le
gation, was presented to the Foreign Ofbce, and
the books and archives placed In his possession.
In conclusion, Mr. Motley says, "I have re
lated the closing incidents of my mission. As
you chose to arraign me in November last, offi
cially and peremptorily, upon charges supplied
to you by an unknown informer, I hud naturally
expected some notice from yon of the reply, In
which 1 denounced those charges as lalse, ca
lumnious, and contemptible.
'Tills not having been the case, I thtuk proper
to pi tee upon the records of this Legation and
of tne State Department the fact that the author
, oi the lniamous libel upon my character, whence
you derived your charges, is absolutely un
known to me; that to the best of my knowledge,
memory, and belief, he never saw me nor heard
the sound of my voice, and that until the publi
cation of his letter I never heard his name.
That the charges, by whomsoever tnveuted or
uttered, are taUe and vile, I have already told
jou iu my letter of the 11th ot December last.

Among the visitors at the War Department
this morning to see General Grant, was old
Francis Blair, who cal?cd on some private bust'

conciliate Grant, as ho is now regarded as the
"coming man."

ters pertaining to our national banking system,

f lad to accede to the request, but he thought, from
ua very nature of tne question, there would be a
pretty long debate on that suliject, aud lf .lt were once
or-eued, he did not know where U would stop,

badlttltotr1 yesterday, In ' tbe discussion of tha legal
effect ol the phrase (high crimes and misdemeanors),
used in the Constitution. The phrase, be contended,
was used in accordance with and subject to tbe rule
of reason, which waa at the foundation of Knglisb
common law; and tbat rale was, tbat no peisou In
office couM do an act tw(i a bonot mcrei, contrary to

rule, the result was that neither tbe r resident, Vloa

trary to tbe good moral (In a large and puSUo sense)
