An Important Railroad Line. The Danville (Ky.) Tribune says that it h decided that the Danville junction with the now military lino of Railroad will be located at Knob Lick, about five miles from the town, and that the work is progressing finely and satisfactorily. The recent guerrilla raid through that section scattered the laborers to the four winds nearly, but they have all sumo reported for duty. There are between See hundred and six hundred hands at work be tween the points of Milledgeville, in Lin coln county, and Banging Fork, a distance of only about two miles, and . in the same pro portion along the proposed route. Tho road has already been located from the junction referred to above about nineteen and a half miles south to Flint's Mill, and the prelimi nary line reaching to Cumberland rtvor, by two routes, ono leading through Somerset and the other leaving Somerset to the right about eight miles, mining to the ravine of Back Creek. All confidence is felt in the earliest prosecution and speedy completion of this most important thoroughfare. If this line ware but completed to-day, as it should have been had the sagacious recom mendation of it to Congress by President lax coLx been attended to by that body, we should now have no trouble about accusing oar pos session of East Tennessee. English View of Napoleon in 3lexleo. Ve boast that the world is getting more moral, and eo it is as a whole. The average of mankind are getting better, the average even of politicians are getting better, and eo farthe world Progresses. But on the other hand the extremes of good and evil are not narrowing to a focus of goodness, and meekness, and gentleness, but they are getting wider asunder—further apart in each genera tion. The good are becoming better and the evil worse. in political life this is most easily traceable. No doubt Louis. Napoleon is not a Nero, but yet he boldly slew more men wantonly and unjustifiably in his coup d'etat than perhaps Nero dill to secure his power in the same spaced time. Still Napoleon boasts that in civilisation ho stands on a far higher , level than did the ancients. And yet .when. the record of his public life comes to bo ' writ ten out fairly, it may well be doubted Whether his character for faith, trutlifulnem„fintegrlty and all else that we boast upon in this .sge, will not appear such as all the betfai' , elass of the Roman Emperors of two thousand years ago would have scorned as unworthy of even 'their day. ivrtbotant-No. of the London Westminster, is an article exposing Louis Napoleon'l con duct in , reganito Idariao,so utterly damaging to biernputation, that if not fairly answered, and we do net believe it can be answered, it ought to be enough to render his rule at least precarious in France, a country of such refined and honorable sentiments. It is there shown that France drew on England and Spain, with the stipulation most solemnly given that the independence of Mexico should not be inter fered with, bat only certain moneys due col lected. To our Minister, Mr. Dayton, the same assurances have been again and again repeated. Crider the protest of jealousy of Spain, whose expedition sailed first, France sent over four or five thousand more troops and batches of now assurances , while yet agents were paving the way for French advance and conquest. The pecuniary demands of France are proved to be a monstrous and greys fraud of the worst kind, so ludicrous, indeed,:that the Bes.ian reasons of Catharine for the seizure of Poland were just and reasonable besides these French claims. Sir Charles Wyke, the British Plenipotentiary, thus puts the mat ter :--" When the Miramon government were on their last logs, the Swiss house of decker d: Co., of Mexico, lent them $750,000, and re ceived in return bonds to be payable at some future time to the amount of $15,000,000. Shortly after this outrageous proceeding, Miramon was upset and succeeded by his rival, Juarez, oho was under French protec -lion. Juares refused to do so, but was willing to pay the $750,000 with five per cent. inter est. ' If such a claim were good, we at the North might soon have a bill sent in for all claims against the Confederate government. Tho French Commissioners proposed* round cum of $12,000,000 as " an approximation to the value of their claim, by a million or two, more or less:" Next they demand the full pound of flesh, $15,000,000. This seemed es little too strong :for England and Spain to assist in maintaining, and so finally they withdrew, after coming very near to an open rupture with the French general, who insisted en protesting Mira Mort, whilo the English Admiral indignantly declared he would arrest him as a robber, for his conduct to English merchants while in power. dlmonte was at, the came time going about under the protec tion of the French, and telling even General Film that the Emperor had sent him to estab lish a monarchy in Mexico. Yet at every step the plenipotentiaries were protesting and proclaiming that the suspicion that they came to establish a monarchy was unfounded and unjust. • It is charged, if not proved, that the whole thing was a plot of Napoleon's from the first to. drew in the concurrence of England and Spain aid - then insult or slip (Lem off and seise the price. Tho only way in which Na poleon can at all save himself in Europe, will be by abandoning the prize for which be has paid sedear a price, with all the deeeney he can. If Maximilian will not take it, let Franco withdraw from further responsibility, and lot Jecker .4 Co. slide with their $15,- 000,000. AU Important Southern Item. Wo find in late. numbers of the Raleigh Standard, which have come to band, that the rebels artfeenstracting i railroad connection between Danville, in - Virginia, and Greene borough, North Carolina. 'lt seems that about 'fifteen miles of the road have been completed, and that the rare •rc expected to run through —a distance of about forty-flue miles—by New Year's, or at fiuthest, by the Spring. This is a highly Interesting feet, as it opens a now lino of communication between Richmond and the Southwest, over the North Carolina Cen tral railroad. But it is not probable that the road will be completed at the earliest day named, so that If Weldon can be seized by our forces an, time during the Fall or Winter, the rebel forces will be cut off from supplies b,yrail, beyondl the Northern boundary of North Carolina; or, in other words, they will be limited to such lean pickings as. can be found in the wasted fields of Eastern and Southern Virginia. By all means let Weldon be seised.—Warbiagem Republican. Tne gold region on the Chandiere river in Upper Canada le attractingeomiderable atten tion. Capitalists from Now York and Boston are making investments there. A trnet of between 60,000 and 70,000 acmes of land in the township of Dorset, county of Beaune, has been purchased by a parrs from New York, who propose to work the mines in a eyslem alio and ecientik.manner.

Meade, says the N. Y. nate, If pushed with the vigor the occasion demands, should disturb the rebel plans for an offensive campaign in East Tennessee. It was the avowed belief of the rebels, in their late advance movement in Virginia, that the destruction of the railroad would so embar rass the-Union army that the season aVaila ble for active operations this Fall would be consumed, and that a small force would serve to cover Richmond, permitting heavy de tachments to be made from the rebel force in Virginia to reinforce their army in Tennes see. It must be acknowledged that past ex perience quite authorized them to form this conclusion, for every one of our Virginia cam paigns has been followed by a long period of quieseence. Bat this time they have reckoned without their host. Gen. Meade, in place of waiting for the completion of the railroad, to enable him to resume his former front of op erations on the Culpepper line, has, by a well- Waned movement, eiTected a change of Lase, (that is a change of secondary hase,) and planted Lie - army south.of the Rappahannock. thus transferring operation to the Fredericks burg line, and enabling Lim to draw his sup plies by way of Aquia Creek. Of course. the value of this move, ar.l the bearings it will here on the rebel plans, will depend entirely on the aincerits of his subse quent operations. If the move is intended merely as a feint, and designed to lead to nothing farther, vro doubt If it will be pro active of tonic of any value. Lee Is him self too. aid ...hard at such stratagems to be greatly disturbed by them. lie will, no doubt, test thoroughly the eharnetar and aim of tits, mrvement, and if it, be anything short of a vigorous offensive to , warcl.i Richmond and the. rebel army, the 'Richmond chiefs will feel free to go on with; Abair Western projects . But if the action Of Gen. Meade bp such as to show ho Is really In earnest, they will be very chary of further depleting the "Army of Northern Virginia." The announcement of rebel movements in, , East Tennessee and the capture of two of Gesti Buntside's advance posts and their garrisons, shows that Gen. Mends is not a moment toil soon in his advance, and seems to indieati that the rebels are already putting in exemai , tion the design so emphatically announced• driving Burnside out of the important rogl he holds. Vigorous and rapid work in Vi • ginia is the only diversion that can be te , in his favor, and this is most imperial ' ' demanded. It is understood that Gen. hi o• has had carte blanche tooperate, this time, mlfh reference purely °ad simply to military eca i siderations. If ho Was really as greatly e a gritted as was reported, at his failure to n battle out,of Leo during the late camp s n, he will now have a chance to make the opuor amity. , ExcelsiOr, and no Mistake. We have sometimes thought that Mr. Long fellow had a sin to answer for, beeauso be wrote a beautiful lyric which had the efent of subjecting the above word from tho Latin to all manner of vulgar cues and vile atom* It had been so used and abused ter ye:mai that we feared iLhad no hope in all the future. It had aufferq both in civil and military Itfe, till we thought its life, for all reasonable of cred itable purposes, was utterly worn out, #ll its character lost beyond redemption. But while there Is life of any kind, there is hope—as :witness this word "excelsior" heneeforth. Bead the following: The New York Excelsior Brigade, repre senting six regimentt, but reduced by the cas utilities of the service to 2,500 menj only 1,500 of whom are present on duty, offer through their commander to re-enlist in a body for tho war ' on the simple conditions that they be allovred to return to New York City for sixty days to recruit their thinrod ranks, and that, when reorganised, it be as v brigade of mounted infantry. The officers of-all the regiments guarantee that their commands will all re-enlist, and that, by the sth of January, the brigade will return to the army %DUO strong. Wars will the English learn ho to write correctly about this country? A very friendly ptee•, the Daily News, reviewing Hawthorne's book, says very compassionately that our "national life has been too short" for the formation "of a homogeneous character" among our people. We should like to know what homogeneity there is among the British people, though a thousand years old, eons posed of Welshmen who cannot speak Eng lish, of Irishmen always In revolt and forever at enmity with their rulers, of Scotobmen who are distinct in lialect, manners and cus toms, and even now are not too fond of the Sassenachs ? How much of this Is there in the English counties of Yorkshire, Hent,Corn wall ? The truth is, there is far more homo geneity In the United States, notwithstanding its short national life, than there ever has been in Great Britain, from the time of the heptarchy down. As Instance of remarkable musical precoci ty, equalled only in the instance of Mor-srt, is the theme of general conversation ip Paris. A boy ten yetis, of ago, Henri Perry, Instruct ed by his sister Antoninc, aged sixteen, has composed a mass, which has been executed with great success. These precocious youths are the grand children of Biagioll, the com mentator of Dante and Petrarth, who long re sided in London.
