An omnibus railroad bill will be sub
mitted at an early day, and strong efforts
made to carry the same. It is very ably
drawn, and includes the guaranteeing of
' bonds for:$40,000 per mile to the North
, ern Pacific, running from Hu Oboldt river,
e ra

tains, to Portland, Oregon, tii which ten
: alternate sections f land on either side
are also to be giv 1,.2 fors southern relit°.
The bill includes the ,Atlantic and Pacific
Railroad,' starting at Springfield, Mo.,
going to Van Buren,,Ark., where it is to
be joined by the Texas Pacific road, start
ing at Marshall, Texas, and both proceed
westwardly by the Canadian river to New
Mexico, where the Union Pacific, Eastern
Division, is to be met, and the three cor
porations form one, under the title of the
Souther&'Continental , Railroad, and are
to proceed to the Rio Colorado and form
a junction with the Southern Pacific Cal
ifornia. "The four routes named are all
asked to aid, by the :guaranteeing of bonds,
the Unioil Pacific, Eastern Division, from
its present stopping place and others from
their starting points. The bill is well
drawn, and the interest of the Govern
ment and . owners of mortgages seems
well guarded. The point of junction for
the propiised Southern Continental road
must be somewhere between the 34th and
36th parallels. -
Another dispatch says : The Senate
Pacific Railroad Committee have bad sev-
eral meetings, at which a subsidy and
"lafid policy was agreed upon containing
these features : First, the Government to
guarantee interest on first mortiage bonds
at six . per cent. in gold for $30,000 per
mile; second, to hold hack all moneys
due front the Government for mails, and
• to pay said interest, and to' require, after
a certain time, that two per. cent. net
earnings of roads thus aided be reserved
for a sinking fund from _which' to pay
bonds- ' , third, to open all Government
lands for settlement 'along the line of
roads from the first; fourth, • this subsidy
to be extended to rthe Northern Pacific,
and_to such a combination as can be
agreed upon from competing" lfiterests
for a Southern road. 'lt is understood
that thereommittee divided on the ques
tion of immediate lgislation, six voting
for, immediate ac , ion and five tor post
ponement until next Winter. ' The. same
division was also had on the proposition
for GoTernment to hold all the lands
granted; sell the opPorttinity of.
fers, and retain the proceeds as a sinking
fund fott,he'payrkent of mortgages. '
The Great Excursion.
The most extraordinary railroad. event
of this railroad age is in preparation—the
magnificent trane•continental excursion
; which,"in the coming, month of July, is
to open #ie Pacific Railway route from .
one ocean to the other.- it will be 'the
world's.•-great - representative- gathering,
that will meet la the heart of the- 40Rti
nent to see the 'last - raft spiked home.
• From this side .the Party will consist of
one thonsand guests,;in a superb train of
forty-free cars , finished expressly for this
occasion. Dr. Durant will, we learn,
commence the excursion proper at Oma
lusi leiving it to tueats from all over the
country to reach that point by their own
choice-of routes., Alt,the head of the list
of inviteirguests will „be President Groat
and hiiCalainet. ' There will also be dele
gations of our foreign'cousins from over
the water. 'We leign that the Pullman
company are building several splendid
sleeping,and commissary cars for the call
to be made on these facilities. Altogether
it will-.beau affeir.itt American railroad
annala unlikely ever to be surpassed;
since no possible achievement, of equal
magnitude waits to be
.pexformed.—Glii

Postal Fac il ities in England.

The Post Office has won the confidence
of the pe ple of Great Britain. The
Chamber o !Commerce of Edinburgh, and
the associated Boards of Trade, and many
-leading merchants of England, have peti
tioned Parliament to empower it to assume
all the telegraph lines of the kingdom;
and after several elaborate reports and
estimates from commissioners and offi
cials, a bill has trien carried through the
principal stages in the House of Commons
prOviding for the purchase of all the lines
in the kingdom and the reduction of the
chirge for all telegrams to a uniform rate
of twenty-four cents for each message of
twenty words, beside the'address, with an
addition of ten cents for ten words or lees
lidded to the message. )
It is proposed also to connect the wires
with the Postoffices in all towns and vil
lages whose population exceeds two
thousand, and that each Postoffice and
each pillar-box should be made a deposi- ,
tory for telegrams to be written on paper ,
bearing a 'twenty-four cent stamp, and
addressed to, the nearest telegraph office;
to be transmitted free from any further
charge for transmission or delivery with
in,Postofficelimits. It is also proposed,
as a further facility, that a book shall be
published yearly, and sold for sixpence,;
containing a; list of all post and telegram;
offices; and that, when a telegram is ad-'
dressed to a town not reached by the
wires; the telegram ,
on its arrival at the;
end of thrH wire, shall be sent free of;
postage by the rat mail, or, if stamped ,
express, shall be sent on by a special mes
senger.
111 Thus the ptate is bringing telegraphy ,
home to the people, giving facilities for
the most rapid interchange of thoughts ' ,
and, desires, providing new safe-guards
for life, promoting human happiness, ad-1

merit. It is the ambition of England to
be foremost among nations in placing on
a proper footing the department of the

seated to mankind aperfect system of pos
tal
communication.

the steamship, which first made electricity
useful, which established between Balti

The entrance to society may be said to
take. place after boyhood has passed
away, yet a multitude take the in
itiative before their hearts are presenta
ble. - It is a great trial to tender or tougn
age. For any overgrown boy to go to a
door, knowing there are a dozen girls
within and knock or ring with absolute
certainty that in two minutes all their
eyes will be upon him, is a severe test of
courage. To go before these girls and
make a satisfactory tour of the room
without stepping on their toes, and then
sit down and dispose of one's pockets is
an achievement of which few can boast.
•If a boy can get so far as to measure off
'ten yards of tape and manage to cut it
short at one end he may stand a pleasant

Saar FRANCISCO, February 2.—Mazat
lan, January 20: An outbreak of the

was quickly suppressed by, the civil and
military authorities. Serious difficulties
are liable to be inaugurated at any mo
mont. There is a rumored prounncia.
mento at Durango, and a military force
has been sent there from Mazatlan.
Gutierrez, General of the fourth di
vision, and said to be the chief of a bind
of robbers, has fled and was pursued by
the military with orders to shoot him on
sight. He has gone to Guadalajara.
The new Federal officers of Mazatlan,
Collector, Coimptroller of Customs and
Commandeiof the Coast Guard Service,
have arrived and assumed their duties.
General Corona's successor is a'man of
dissolute habits, gives universal.dissatis
faction, and will receive little sympathy
in case of overthrow.
The Collector called a meeting of the
merchantse of Mazatlan and requested
them to pay over four thousand dollars,
deficit of last year's customs. They com
plied With toe request.
Several earthquake shocks were pelt at
Mazatlan January 9th and 10th, which
frightened the people, but caused no dam
age to property. . •
Three German Captains of European
merchant vessels in the harbor of Mazat
lan were grossly outraged by the Cue
tome authorities by insults similar to
those offered to the , Captain of the Eng
lish gunboat Chanticleer.
