Fe ee cea Hevala Daily Transcript. ) CALIFORNIAN” . ~ Nevada County Official Press. WEDNESDAY MORNING NOV, 26th. WRANGLING ABOUT RAILROADS.—When Congress last: winter passed a Pacific Railroad Bill, the people of California were for once delighted: “A decade ad passed away in fruitless efforts to obtain the aid of the General Government in the important work. At last the great boon was obtained and Celifornia was glad. An immense step towards cementing the East and the West in one indissoluable union, and advancing the inter~ ests of California, had been taken. ‘The passage of the Railroad Gill was a cause for all of us to congratulate one anether as Californians and Amerigans. vee A few months‘have passed away. Instead of seeing a harmouious people bending their united efforts to secure the construction of the road at the earlist practicable moment we meet with the most disgusting wrangling, Every place in the State, except Nevada and Grass: Valley. is clamorous for the Pacific Railroad to: run throughit. ‘Ihe dog-in-themanger policy is inaugurated, and seems likely’ to be adhered to. One place will not help builda railroad unless its own selfish interests are consulted as of primary importance. And so it goes. One of the San Francisco journals is so intent on build ng long railroads that it advances the bran new --jdea, thatthe longer the Pacific railroad is in this State, the better it will be, because it will command all the more local trade! This theory knocks the policy of the most direct route out of existence, and Judah’s short survey across the mountains is founded vn. false principles and will have to be disbanded, of course. All adverse interests are opposed to thxt short survey. Placerville talks of a road, and San Francisco makes a show of backing her. Marysville and Oroville want the Pacific Railroad to pass in that direction. Of course, they have the best route. A mn witha cane in one hand and a bottle of whisky in the other made a thoroughly scientific survey ofa canon ainety miles loug and fifty deep on that route and found it expressly designed by nature for the Great Pacific Railroad. The Placerville route has been surveyed with a quadrant of mince pie and alevseler ef rum, and found to be eminently practicable, only one tunnei that will cost sixteen years labor to cut it, being found on the route. the instruments used were not altogether reliable, and it may be possible when different ones are applied, said tunnel may have to be commenced a mile further down the mountain, and therefore will require to be five or s'x miles longer, thereby placing the date of its completion about tie beginning of the next century. There has been one accurate and reliable survey made across the mountains. a good ani practicable route, and net an expensive one, for a railroad. menns-to make the survey, hag also oxamined other routes with a view to selecting the best one, and has determined. on the Truckee route as the best. It is too late te commence any other survey this winter.— The objectors to the Judah survey know that, and want to take advantage of it to benefit their toll reads, which a railrood would injure greatly in value, A considerable length of road may be graded this winter, if laborers are set at work. The time ought not to be lost. The Judah survey indicates a good route— probably the best that can be discavered. Everybody ought te unite upon it, put it through, save time, and cease wrangling. j ce Ordinary bouts are selling at Savannah, for $30 a pair. te The one thousandth anniveraary of the foundation of tbe city of Toplitz,in Bos hemia, was recently celebrated. _ Ooo Tne Boston Herald says that sixty men who had been drofted in that city, have enlist. téd for the three years service. Some Plumas county copper ore, on exhibition at Virginia City, is said to contain 90 per cent. copper, and to yield about $80 in siver to the ton, THe schoruer Sacramento, 100 tons, was launched at the Capital a few days since — She is destined for the river and Bay trade. It .is true, . That: was done by Theodore D. Judah. He fonnd . . A ceinpany has been organized and thé work.is about te com. .mence.

Trustwotthy information reveived here states that Hampton's legion came-into Warrenton Thursday by the way of Crerryville road. Stonewall Jackson’s army was expected.in Salemon-Saturday, Great preps rations were being made to feed them. .Scouting parties sent to Bull Run on Saturday came back without having seen or heard of rebels. Scouts have also returned . fro Aldie;‘Fhoroughfare Gap, Leesburg and Hopewell Gap. They report ne trace of the enemy. WasiunGTon, Nov. 23. A dispatch: from the headquarters of ‘the army yesterday says: The ‘redencksourg people are fast leaving the city.” The Star contains the following: “Impression pre“vailed yesterday and to-day that Early’s and Maeall’s divisions of Jac«son’s corps were advancing on Washington and had arrived at Leesburg. We know if Jackson comes this way with less than one hundred thousand ‘men Heintzleman will not-let him get back again ”’ Z WASHINGTON, Nov. 24. ' An efficer who left Burnside’s army at one o'clock yesterday reports the situation of affairs unchanged. 7 Tbe rebels had nineteeen guns of large esliber in position at or near Fredericksburg. a‘ New Yorw, Nov. 24. A special dispatch to the Herald says the rebels in occupation of Fredericksburg demand further time to eensider the question of surrender. On Friday night, after an interview witb the civil authorities Gen. Sum. ‘ner informed them that if they had any further communications to present, Gen. Patrick would hear them, On Saturday, accordingly the Mayor and Coune!} came on, secompaaied by General Kershaw of S. C., and Colonel Blunt. These officers claimed that civil authorities could make no propositions, unlessthe same were accepted by them. The civil authorities then asked an extension time, for the removal of women and children. Their request was complied with, and time nded until 11 o'clock Sunday. morning. i : WashincTon, Nov. 2 The President, in course of an interview terday, discussed the question © pation at length. Hesaid he would rather die than take back one word of the proclamation of freedom. ie WASHINGTON, Nov. 24. Reports have been received from Fortress Monroe of reconnoissance sent by Gen. Dix, up the peninsula as faras the Chickalrominy, capturing some rebels, and obtainining reliable information. Mempuis, Nov. 21. The Grenada Appeal, of Nov. 8th, is greatly exercised about the present, and prospective condition of affairs in Mississippi, and addresses a highly inflammatory appeal to every able-bodied man in the State, to rally around Pemberton, as the only means by which, .e:ther prosperity, honor, or self-re~ pect can be preserved. tr gee ‘The Appeal says Gen. Price is intrenched several miles below Holly Springs. NASHVILLE, Nov. 22. Bragg is at Tul'ahoma, Tenn., 70 miles south of Nashvillle which place it is stated the rebels are fortifying. New York, Nov. 24th, A Fernandina, Florida, letter of the 10th gives an account of the bombardment of St Marys. Ga., which says “our treops landed and were fired on by the rebels who mustered strongly, whereupon the gunboat Mohawk fired shells into the’ town for 20 minutes then a female bearing flag ef truce approached the gunboat. A Lieutenant went ashore and met her and on his return the boat hauled offintending to'return to Fernandina, when the rebels fired velley of musketry. The gunboat then returned abreast of the town and fired shells for an hour and a hall, reduing half the place to ashes. Sr. Louts, Nov. 24th. The Democraé has information that the rebels are now busy fortifying Port Hudson, 150 miles above New Orleans, They have 10 or 12 guns now in position, The rebels are pow running steamboats from Port Hudson to Lake Ponchartrain.— Their boats are running also on Red River, bringing immense supplies. of cattle from Texas and also a large quantity of salt from a point on Red River, 50 miles above the mouth. Itis said this week's produce, is 10,000 bush els, daily, all of which is sent Kast via Vicks-~ burg. Catto, Nov. 24. ’ Small rebel parties come from Tuallahatchie almest daily, extending their scouts’ some distance, northward. All the bridges between Corinth and Tallah:tehie were burned by these parties. = * SH abeiae Mme <5 age ees Oa +R = Tue News is all fair for our side. The report that Stonewall Jackson is marching on Washington, we donot éredit. Ib comes under date of the 23d, while we have Wasbingten, New York, nnd St. Louis dates of the day after, which add nothing eonfirmatory. The policy of thé rebels is to threaten Washington in the rear of eur Rienmond ar my in order todelay federal movemeuts towards the latter city. Sigel and Hentzleman are taking care of the reserves, and are good enough to match the psalmsinging Stone. Our-forces: have been delaying before Fredericksburg. We regret tosee it. Proper time should be given for the women gnd children to get out of the place, but not a mo~ ment longer. Delays in dealing with the treacherous rebels hive always been ruin. ous. Vigorous ang timely action is what the eountry wants. ; Our gunboats have demolished a part of the town of St. Mary’s, Ga., for the duplicity of its inhabitants, and served it right.
