►,7Thc friends of the Railroad project
will be pleased to learn that the Commis-
sioncrs, at their meeting yesterday 'I fun
noon, unanimously determined to lift the
charter of the company at once, with a
view to an immediate organization and a
survey of the proposed routes of the road.
The following is the resolution adopted :
Resolved, That an organization be ef
fected in the shortest practicable time—
the officers of the Board to order au Elec
tion at the earliest possible day alter the
lilting OP the charter, and to give the re
quisite notice thereof—said nonce to an
nounce further that every subscriber shall
he entitled to one vote for every share of
stock on which he shall have paid in Bb,
and no other—and I urther' that the money
so paid in will be helti under and subject
to the conditions of their subscriptiona of
stock.
Seventy thousand dollars have already
been subscribed—being SlO,OOO more than
the act requires for an organization. The
road, however, cannot be put under con
tract until an additional subscription of
$30,000 is secured. The sooner that a
mount is secured the sooner we will have
the road, and it becomes the duty Of every
friend of the enterprise to 6 to work iu
earnest and lend a helping hand krwania
securing it. Numbers of our people have
not yet subscribed, whu should. DOM come
promptly forward and pat_ down their
names, while such ati feil themselves able
to increase their subscriptions will have
an opportunity to do so. •
We may retook that there need be np
hesitation in paying-in •the 05 requisite
to secure a vote, as by the conditions of
subscription the amounts so paid in cannot
be appropristed in any way until the coon
Illation of the subscription of /100,000. In
case of an abandonment of the enterprise—
s contingency we do not seriously appre
hend—the amounts paid in will of course
be refunded. • -

CHINESE REBELLION.—Oor
'ions news from China mei to the effect that
the insurgents, having gained a firm foot
ing in the southern province of Kuang-see,
and reduced the central districts of the
South to subj ection, advanced northward
till they reached the River Yang tie Ko
ng. Having divided their forces into
two wings, ono struck the river near lon
gitude 110 degrees, encountered the impe
rial army, defeated it, and captured succes
sively the populous and wealthy cities of
Ya ohne and Nan-yank, whilst the`Other
marched directly against Nankin. Advi
ce' by the last mail from China confirm
our previous intelligences of the fall of that
pity; but the Herald says those who are
best qualified to forma judgment on the
point seem to think the announcement re
quires still further corroboration. How
ever this may be, neither the intention of
the rebels to march on Pekin, nor their ev
ident superiority to the imperial troops in
the field, can now be questioned. Nor an
any reasonable doubt be entertained of the
ultimate overthrow of the reigning dynas
ty it foreign powers do not step in to the
assistance of the Emperor.
