Among the greatest of .all el.enta„ the birth day of George Washington stands' out in distinguished and beau tiful relief. The chosen instrument of Providence to,reseue our people from the evils and aggressions of religious and political tyranny, have we not great and forceful reasons far bless i ng the period that gave him life 7 As "long as "American Re . publioanism exists—as long as the spirit of our free institutions, and the love of liberty cling round our hearts, so long will we continue to hail its annual recurrence with a deep and hea:ty feeling of thankfulness. Let us then breathe the hoFe, along with every pure patriot, that the indulgence of such feeling shall endure coeval withthe extent of. time.. • :Early on, the morning of the 2:ZI, the treMbling echo. of cannon could be heard, which was : To:nil to proceed from the neighboring borough _of Mi nersville, where the Artillerists of that place were engaged'in firing a National salute.

In_his first lecture he gavea most vivid and truthful, description of the country when under the complete and entire control of the ;red men—before the ship of the adventurer had touch ed the shore—described the majesty of the wilder nets—.-the wild and rugged appearance of all ,na , tura—the total absence of eivilization-41tewizard = ` like apparition of the dusky savage, as he noise lessly trod his way through the gloom of the for est, invested the listener wit a full conception of the change which the mighty stride 'of civilization has made in the,-land. He then proceeded giad• nolly and vividly to note the waning of their pow -1 er, and _traced their progress until the present ,pe riod, interspersing his discourse with several very 1 interstia2; anecdotes, illustrative of their bravery, 1 generosity and christianty. The Colonel is an eloquent lecturer, and one I who posscsst:.-, in a most eminent degree the peels -1 liar power of enchaining the attention of an mil -1 ence. We boat iir;urely hope that he may find in the majority _of his listeners that sympathy whtch he himself feels; and that his 'ezettiona 1 may finally meet with that success;which their philanthnipy so well merits.

Indeed lam of the opinion that 'if made as hereafter mentioned, they will be found to arfswer on sranch coal_ to our collieries, Where horse pow er 'lila slow. Motion only are used, if they arc well laid on a solid road bed. This is a matter of great importance to cur operators - , anti I beg leave most respectfully, to call their attention to it. In less than two years front this - time every' part of our Coal Regionwill be connected with the Reading rail road; and the care of the, company, carrying. from three to fire tons of coal, will be taken to ever] colliery. It is idle to construct roads of common timber and plate iron, and expect' them' to Withstand the crushing pressure of such cam:— They must be made of iron. Land owners and, operators will have to make up their minds to this. And they :will also have tO'make up their minds that cast imiurails of the pattern will not an- sever ior heary cars.: Experience has shown that such cars will Speedily strip oil the unsupported tops of such : rails and renderthein unfit for safe travel.; ME EI MEI IMID rges tish d in n of phis, Roiled iron rails cannot be had, in small quan tities, under f. 7,5 00 per ton, ormy :31 'cents per lb., which Will make the "lost ot '5O Tbs. or 1 yard $1 75. , . In the east iron rail, the flange below 'may be . dispensed with, except at the bearings. By mak ing the rails in thi way, of the weight .of 35 lbs. to the yard, they Will oas strong fir pressure or, slow motion only as the rolled rail'of '5O Ills. per yard. , Cast iron rails can he had at *2 I cts. per lb.,—or at a east per yard of St t:t, perhaps less— thus showing', a difference in cost of iron of 51 cents per yard, or $1795 ; '00 per Ole of rail road. It shouldbe observed, however, that cast iron . rails being in much shorter lengths will require a great er number of chairs and spikes for fastening thorn to the SleeperS, than the rolled rails;,,.vhieh sill probably redtiee the difference of coat to about $l3OO 00 per mile. , Some engineers are very confident that cast iron rails canhc used to advantage on roads , -„licre locomotives, are run. But lam not so sanguine. Unless they are laid on a continuous bearing of wood,.their: Safety' would be very doubtful. A continuous bearing diffel l a nothing from our corn 'mon wooden tail road, ckcept in the size of the timber used. I Experience has ami3ly shown, that they are very 'expensive to keep in repair, and are not to be depended on.' The rails are Bible to rot in theecntre,land will sometimes suddenly give way with the crushing pressure of locomotives or heavy' cars„-tto such an extent as to endanger the breaking of a cast iron rail. ,UnlesS therefore timber can, by some process, be preserved fron decay; of which I intend •to speak hereafter,' the success ofeal; roads trade. on this plan appear. very. dOubtfuli I shall be truly gratified,' should, future cxperi.: mice show that m' present fears arc unfounded, and that castirou rails can be used on all our rail roads. I greatly desire to see the product of our own furnaces ;used, rather than that of foreigners: 'Many of their are now languishing for want of an adequate market , for their iron. Nothing could furnish them with a better or' more extensive one than such an application of theirod t pr Ile .1 - tut of the complete success of cast iron, rails on our branch roads, if well laid on a solid road bed, and reasonable care be afterwards taken to keep them inlrepair, there can 'hardly remain a doubt. At least the probability in their favor-id so strong, if the shape above suggested is adopted, as to render them worthy of a fair trial. ' I have dmvlrings of the rail and chair on the'plan proposed; which I will take pleasure, in showing to these whlalfeel interested in the matter. 3E9 IMO NE 000. 1 , I dunt. rts,' , r the EMI OEM .posi- Nev. f the • has cc at publ ME 1112 " pres- I owed so on &cis- UM MEI Marriake.ffT never kiwis a marriav expressly for money : that did not end unhappily.
