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

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~

treacherous rebels hive always been ruin.
