The basis is to be conftdera- rcspectable nad influential citizens : I have no time to cf)mment, but give you the plan, as it haa b'en revealed to me wiihoul any injunction of concealment. A new republic is lo be formed, consisting at first of ten States, three to be comprised within age, with whom 1 could not but feel exceedmgly annoyed. lie not only ( ngrossed all iheir atlen- lion, but lucky dog as he seemt d, was determin ed that no other ()erson should participate in the •amusements. An ofl’er of ?ome little delica cy by myself to the younger of the two ludies was met by an icy sort of politeness on her pari, that efrectually chilled any further attempts at an intimacy. I soon left the table, but I couUl not drive the image of t/iai lovely beir'g I had jusi left ted government, similar to yours on the Atlnntic side. 7'he great railroad is to be abandoned, and every obstacle thrown in !he way of its construc* lion ; w hile the argument al the hustings is to be made to the people lhat the CJovernmenl at Wash ington have refused the road to the people of the Pacific.
