'I'hu aufi;rei:at.; is } miles, which is suificient, alter belting’ the globe, to leave two line>s ext;iul- inur from the Atlantic to tlie Pacific. 'Fhe eost of these works is eouipnted at ?l,1 S. or S'iTjI'OO per mile on an aver%”;c. We liiiil iti the Xew Euj:land states 3,715 miles iu operat’on, in the .^liddle Atlantic states, ineltnlini:- Delaware and Maryland, niilcs; ki the South Atlantic states, 4,;}02 railesj in the (rulf states, 2,008 miles; in the South interior .states, 2,(100 miles; in the North interior states, 10,3I miles, and in (.'ali- fornia 70 miles. As between the free and slave states, the former have a total of 20,497. and the later of 10,071 miles. On an average the former have cost one-third per mile for construction more than the latter, owing to the greater phj'sical obsUicles overcome, and the larger equipment provided for the heavier business to bo transacted. In 1830 we bad 1,102 miles opened—the result of seven years’ efforts in rail road building. By the close of 1850 this figure had risen up to !^,850, thus doubling itself every five years. Then com menced an era when the public mind got almost crazy for rail roads. For the next five years 2,500 miles per annum were opened, the movetnent be ing slightly checked in 1854. The revulsion of 1857 proved much more severe upon this interest, to which the reverses of that date were chietiy traced. Yet since then our people have complet ed on an average 1800 miles annually, and this rate of increase will probably be maintained for years to come. It is not too much to say that in ten years 00,000 miles will be required within the limits of the United States alone; and if the rest ot North America be added, the aggregate can hardly fall short of 100,000. uV.

Hence the necessity of importing from twenty to forty millions iu value of foreign sugar annually. What would become of the sugar interests of Louisiana if that State was severed from the Union? A short glancc at the couimcrcial rela tions ot the country would demonstrate that this important local interest of that State would be to tally destroyed. They could not contend against West India planters, or else the profits of the former are larger tlian generally estimated or ac- knowled;jed by them.«elves. Five millions of dollars annually paid by the people of the United 8tat^>s on one article of do mestic consunifdion, for the benefit of tli.e people of one State only, is a curious comjticntary upon the secession movements of the years lSOU-l''Ol.

'J'hey have been commiting abuses upon the people for years; deceiving them with lies and mislead ing them by perversions of truth, until now they have atteiupted to lead them to break up the best Government iu the world aud fling thcms.'lvos and their families into the horrors of civil war, resulting in general destruction to life, coui.try, property, and civilization. This last abuse of con fidence, like the last feather laid upon the patient and enduring camel’s back, has broke the sj)ell which bound the people to the politicians, and now look out, gentlemen. The camel fell to'the earth under the fabled burden which had been piled upon him, little by little; but the people liave not yet fallen hopelessly, they will arise; aud with a power suificient to teach their tormentors that it is a fearful thing to tritie with their lives, their honor and their dearest interests. They are fixing their eyes upon every man who is now helping to consuiumate the ruin of their national heritage, and woe be to them.—Sal. Watchman. A Peer of EnyJand to be Tried for Murdt-r.— A spectacle of a very unusuul anu important char acter will shortly be seen in England, being no less than that of a peer of the United Kingdom being placed on his trial for the crime of murder. The peer is the Marquis of Downshife. The facts of the case are briefly these: The Maro[uis of Downshire is the owner of a yacht, and in a reccnt cruise he was accompanied by some members of his family, one of whom, I J^ady Alice Hill, his youngest daughter, is stated 1 to bo a very beautiful girl. I Ou the day the alleged murder was committed j the Marquis had gone ashore with some of his j family, leaving Ludy Alice on board the yacht. On his return, quite unexpectedly, he found the ' captain of the yacht at the feet of the Lady Alice, ! having hold of one of her hands, and making to ! her earnest protestations of his love. The yuung lady appeared to be a willing listener. The Marquis, who is between forty and fifty years of age, and a man ot herculean power.-?, en raged at the position in which he found his daugh ter and the captain, seized the latter, iud actual ly threw him overboard from the yacht into tho sea. In an instant, regretting his conduct, the Marquis and the crew got out the yacht’s boat and made every endeavor to save the captain’s life, but without avail. He was drowned. The Marquis forthwith returned to England and gave himself up to the authoritiet*. and ac cording to the information given to the Xew York Commercial Advertiser, he is to be tried by hi.s i peers, for which purpose the hall nt Westminster ‘ is to be fitted up as a high court of justice, i The trial, if the circumstances stuted are oor- 1 rect, will probably result in a conviction of mun- I slaughter; in which event, as in the ca.se ol Lord I Byron in 176.5, the Marquis wiil plead his privi- 1 legQ as a peer, and be discharged.
