nothing was thought of below the great cham

we may rest assured that the business of the

There aro complaints that the money raised
at the North professedly for the bendit of the
Free State Party in Kansas, has never rcached
its destination. The New York Po.4t has. a
letter from Kansas stating that " not a di liar
of it has reached that. Territory," and the
convention which was hell at Topeka on the
"Id ult., appointed an agent to.nseertain, if pos
sible, what has become of funds heretofore
raised, and secure, if possible, those that may
be raised hereafter. The convention states
that " much dissatisfaction has been expressed
both in Kansas and out of it, concerning funds
that have been subscribed or donated for the
relief of the sufferers in this. Territory."
In) will bo our next President, is a
question often asked of one another. The recent
elections show that :Tames Buchanan will carry
every Southern State, with an extreme posSibil,
ity of trilling exceptions. In the North, the op
position vote to the Democratic party, being di
vided in the free States, between Freemont and
Fillmore, Mr. Buchanan will have a large plu
rality in most of the States, so that his election
is apparently, as certain as any thing can be in
political calculations.
The heaviest train of cars that has yet
passed down the Lehigh Valley Railroad, vent
down on Monday of last week. The train I
numbered one hundred and twenty-five cars,
freighted with over six hundred tons of :
The.engine drawing this monster train is one
of Norris' make, a six -driver, called " Henry
King," after our townsman.
Ea — Dn the Lehigh Valley Railroad, coal
transportation was, for the week ending last
Saturday, 4,387 tons ; for the year 80,134
tons. A cOnsiderable portion of the conl car
ried
over the Lehigh Valley road, is taken to ,
Trenton by the Belvidere Delaware road, and is
there shipped in vessels for New York and oth
er markets. The .Gazdte says :—" This trade,
which is now in its infancy, promises to be one
of great importance to our city."
THE LEHIGH REGISTER, AUGUST 27, 1856.
We stated last week, says the " Pottsville i
.Tournal," (lilt this road would be •10 miles in
length. This is a IMstake. It is only
miles in extent. .To :•bow that this route must
become a great thoroughfare to the West and
New York, and will be one of the best paying
roads in the United States, carrying Passengers,
Merchandise and Coal to its full capacity, as
fast as the rolling machinery is supplied—be
cause the trade already exists--it is not to be
created, lmt only transferred to a shorter and
cheaper route, we pledge es much Coal front

The advantage of sending goods at once front
the-city of New York, in a locked car, without
transhipment or delay, to almost any point in
the western country, needs only to be stated to
be appreciated by all business Men, and the
ini
tiation of this new system of goods traffic, re
quires only the construction of our unfinished
link of llS!, miles of railroad to bring kinto ac•

nominated Frctuont, of whom he is an ardent
supporter. It is worth while, however, to bear
in mind that the Convention which nominated
this ticket refused to pass a resolution requir

A NAITHAI. 01!niosrrv.—A correspondent
fift he Baltimore San writ log from Tully. Lrwis
county, Missouri, says : I saw yesterday one
of the greatest natural curiosities now extant
—a snake with two heads, one at each extrem
ity. The body is about two feet long and two
inches in diameter in the centre. The snake is
Nti - ell 'formed, large in the centre, and gradually
taperS to each end, with two pet feet heads in
every respect. But the most novel thing to
witness was its actions toword the gentleman
that caught it, running one •way with as much
ease apparently as the oilier, with both tongues
out, each raging, apparently with anger. I
have no doubt many of your readers will look
upon this as false (a snake story.) but it is a
fact, and can be vouched for by many of our
most respectable citizens.

a single plank : becau se by his election Kansas
will he irretrievably lost to freedom : because
the Cincinnati plattbrin is constructed for the
bcr.:lit of hie trade : because he lc c been 110111-
in:tied by the same convention which endorsed
the shameful administration of Franklin Pierce ;
because we are convinced that, as he approves
that plat ffirm, he will follow in the footsteps of
his predecessor in 012 administration of the
government : because when the lion. Henry
Clay was a 'candidate for the Presidency, he
aided by falsehood and deception to defraud
that statesman of his election, and because his
friends during the whole time that he has been
maintained in office. are unable to point out one
single act of his, hichly beneficial to his own
State or to any other.
