R: The Blorning Granseript. NEVADA CITY. SUNDAY MORNING, OCT, 1% now . . ee ——— Bs Are You Reapy !—The Central Pacific Railroad Company is an organized institution and is at work. The-bill passed by the last Congress. in: which our fellow citizen and indefatigable Representative, Sargent, took a noble fnterest, and tontr’bated more than any other man: to ite passoge,. waa not a mere for mula. Ite effects are beginning to be aren in the movements of the Central Pacific Rail; togd Company. The, Company is at work. Dyfing the, courap of this week two corps of: engineers will -he put upon the ground to deterinie the route for the first section, and the books will be opened iu Sacramento and San Francisco. for subscriptions. to stock. The right,men have taken hold of the work and it will be earnestly pushed. ‘Tt will be remembered that the act of Congress requires. that fifty miles be conattuctedwithin two years. The Company haé resolved to construct fifty miles -: in ‘one year, so that in off year from this time, we may expect to be able to travel ona ‘portion of the great Pacific Railroad, and, make it convenient to do so, because tte dept at the mountain end.of the first section 1s likely to be nearer Nevada than the depot of aly othet cond. The terminus of the road for the present will probably be Sacramenty. From thence we infer the fitst section of 50 miles will riin in nearly o atraight line: across the plains to the base of the dot. hills somewhere in Placer Coun: We understand that books for subscriptions will be opened in this city at no very dist-ot diy, As the work is one in which our citizene are deeply concerned, we republish in the briefest manner possible the inducements held out by the Nativbal Goverament to enlist in the enterprize. The substantial ad granted by the Government is in every.alternate section of land with the timber thereon, of & strip, ten miles wide lying on doth sides of the road, together with the right of way. In addition t.» this the Goverarent loans thé Company in National bowds the sum of $16,000 -per mile for the flat lands over whieh the road passes in this State, and $48,000 per mile from the bases of foot bills across the Sierra Nevada. The Comp:ny on pay the bonds by carrying troops, the maile &c. ee The aid from the Government is munificent, though not enough, of course, to build the road. It is computed that the firat section of 50 miles will cost about $3,000,000 as the work is to be done in the most substantial manner. Those who have invested in the movement, compute the Washoe trade of aufficient importance to more than pay the cost of construction, and that trade is growing 80 rapidly as to induce dixpateh in building a railroad. Ground will be broken in a few weeks at farthest, end it ie anticipated that in two years and a half, er three years at moat, the Silver mines will be connected with the navigable waters of this State Ly a part of the Great Pacific Railroad. Are we ready to assist with our mites in constructing the yreatest work of modern times? <p a mia THat Repent Iron-CLap.—Some weeks ago we had a repert which has not been con. tradicted, that‘an iron-clad man-ot-war had suddenly left the shores of England for destinationunknown. Nothing has been heard of the vessel since it left the Mersey. Where is itt May it not be oa its way te the Pacific, and may we not hear in a few weeks of a steamer taken on its way to Panama, or of the sudden enttance of the formidable aronster through the Golden Gate and the eurrender of San Francisco? Itis pretty well understood that rebel sympathizers on this ooast have been contributing to the secession cause, by sending their money te agente i Englind, Perhaps the irem-clad we have heard of built in England was paid for by Seeesaionists here for ‘the express purposo of pucting the State under contribution. ~—— Baptist SYNoD.—The Baptists recently held a Synod at Stockton. It set its face firmly against Theatres, Cireuses and Balls, and denounced the laws of the State regulating divorces as cotitrary to the letter and spirit of Christianity. According to that body, this should be the law: “Whoseever shall put ame his w fe, except it be fur fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery ; and who so marrieth her which is put away, doth commit adultery.” Butif tho wife pat away tlie husband, what then? Derenses WaxTeD.—The last Legislature did not doite duty inadjourning without making adequate provision for State defenses, aad fanthe want of the proper care on the pakt ot the Legislature, Califorma is to-day at the merey of a foe in a most crifical time when our relations with foreign powers are growing more and more complicated. In such times of peril no precaution should be omitted. The expenditure of a million of dollars-is nothing compared with. the damage a sinall fleet might do when once within the harbor of San Francisco, and that one mail clad vessel would find av difficulty . town at noon, in-passing Fort Point and Alcatraz is not disputed. Ww have none of the heaviest guns ‘in the State, and are not likely to have for some months to come. Neither are we well supplied with small arms. Had the Legislature of last winter comprehended the dangers that surround us, or are likely to bes. tus before this war is brongbt to a termination, its mem: ers should not have failed. to make provision to put the State in the most complete defvnse. An appropria~ tion to make and mount a number of the heaviest guus and to supply the loyal peuple with arms of all kinds would have been wise. ‘If the State could not have constructed a Monitor or two, she shoul! have’ taken care that no hostile vessel of the kind could pass our forte without destruction. Avs it ia, the coast is ‘almost entirely defenseless against one of the popular flouting fortresses of modern times. The National Government has its hands full, and while we ure not reqnired to furnish the State's quota of troops, and are comparatively exempt from the evile of war, tie State can afford to defend itself, and d. it efficiently. We trust, if no evil shall befal the the State from enemies before the first of Janaary, that the next Legislature will recognize the policy of putting the State witout delay in the position of the most perfect defense, because: the vast interests of the State tht might be ruinously affected by the arrival of the enemy demind that no expense should be spared or precaution omitted. mer Sie beenr ees etd THE people of Stockton are getting somewhat excited about the prevalence of the emati pox in their midst, Iris not generally known, but it ig unquestionably true, snya an exchange, that Jeff.

It occurs to me that they ought te appomt another day for prayer,an take back all their expressions of gratitude for the manner in which Provieence has allowed thein te be treated by “ the northern hordes” on the bordevaof Maryland and Pennsylvania! They should now marshal all their hypocritical preachers and old whiskey-drinking elerical rips, and with a united voice, heaving and set= ting at a throne of grace, lke se many old rams ata gate-post, pray to their deity to save them from their friends, whilst they tuke care of their enemies!
