Mr. Whitnet. iira subsequent npmbertf the Register, as has been seen, i disseoJs from bU opinion, and atlempts to show that the route to Canton, in Cbina, around the Cape, of Good Hope, from London, is shorter, by 363 miles, than that across the 1st hmas of Panama. " -Now, it seems to us that Mr. Whitney has pro ten too much. 1 f the distances are as he states them, then bis own project across the Continent will not shorten the route to China; for. Mr. T. B. King, of the House of Rep resentatires, if we remember cor rectly, makes the distance between New York and Su Francisco, via Panama, only 5,600 miles, while by the most direct inland route, in the direction of Mr. Whitney's Rail Road, it is little short of 3,000 we will say 2,600 ; and then, from London to Can ton si M r. W.rs Rail Road, will be only 3,000 miles nearer than the Punama route, after all the expense of siand carriage of 2,500 mik supposing st con? tinnous Rail Road all the way. But fartherit will actually exceed the rente by the Cape of Good Hope, by 103 miles, erery inch of which, is water carriage, without a trans-shipment. r Furthermore Mr. Whitney proposes to begin his route at the Southern extremity of Lake Mich igan, and to depend upon the Lakes, the Erie Ca nal, and the Hudson River, to convey merchandize from the Eastern extremity of his Road to New York. Eren supposing that the Rail Road could be made across the entire Continent without a gap in it, requiring a change of Cars, there would still be four trans-shipnieuta before reaching New York, and five, before reaching London, viz : at San Fran cisco, at Lake Michigan, at ButFalo, and at Albany' and in going to Londen, another trans-shipmect at New York. By the Panama route, there'would be but two ; and by the Cape of Good Hope not one. There is another consideration. Mr. Whitney - 1 1 - . .. r 1 . . 1 u .. ... . ,.. 1 ..jj-. - m y 1 .

Those ter ritories will be densely populated before Mr. Whit ney's Road can bo built and how are they the while to exchange their gold, and furs and other products, fur the wares and merchandize of the Eastern States J This traffic, together with the transportation of the tide ef emigration, will amply repay the expense of building a Rail Road of fifty miles in length, across the Isthmus long before Mr. Whitney's magnifi cent scheme ean be completed. We are by no means opposed in the project of Mr. Whitney. It has onf best wishes for its success. It is a grand enterprise, destined, we have no doubt, to be realized, and to repay the vast expense of its construction. "But why, in the mean time, forego the advantages of an intercourse with oar far off Colonics? The Panama Road can be built in two years, and by peopling those distant regions more rapidly, it will strengthen the indncataents to the construction of a Rail Road across the Continent Mr. Whitney, then, should not oppose the Panama project, because it will, more than any thing' else, tend to give feasibility, and even necessity to his own. His plan for the execution, of the work is ad mirably devised it will not cost the National Trea sury a cent ; on the contrary, it will greatly enhance the value of the Public Lands. We were highly gurs well for the domestic peace of the nation, and if, as there is reason to fear, France shall again re lapse into despotism, it is to be hoped that the change will be gradual and bloodless. It Js said that the election of Buonaparte would be proclaimed before the result is officially known. A bad sign. It is rumored that Cataignac will be created Marshal of France. Buonaparte will re ceive five-sixths of the votes, and apprehensions are felt that the people will proclaim bun Lmperor. It appears that out of 266 presses in 72 Depart ments, only 91 supported Buonaparte a proof that the intelligence ot r ranee is against him. Highly Interestisc froh Italy The Flight or the Pope According to the latest accounts from Rome, the Pope did not leave his apartments in the duirinal-Palace after the murder of Count Rossi, and was actually treated by the government as a State prisoner. All his own guards were removed, and he was surrounded-by persona supposed to be favorable to the new administration. His chief as sociates were the foreign ambassadors ; and -on of these, Count Spokr, tne5avrtaa envoy, ptatmeeV and effected the escape of the venerable pontiff. The Pope left the Q.uirinal on the evening of the 24th, disguised as a servant or Count bponr, and wearing the livery or tne Bavarian legation. Dress ed in the character of a footman, he mounted the box of the ambassador's carriage, seated himself by coachman, and thus absconded from the duirmal Palace, and was carried off to uaeta. 1 lie Count had previously obtained passports for Naples, whith er the Pope accompanied him, not in his first dis- verdicf against the husband.

We hud the following plan sug gested by a Correspondent of the Lexington Observer he proposes to incorporate it into the new constitu tion which will be fra'med during the present year, by a Contention to be assembUd for that purpose. We believe the plan is substantially "the same as that sketched by Judge Underwood in a Speech in Con gress at the last Session. The Sections proposed for the new Constitution, are as follows : Sec. 1. Those who are slaves in this State, at the adoption of this constitution and descendant, of the fe males of them, and none others, shall nereaiter be accounted slaves : and shall not be subject to be man omitted, except in the manner hereinafter provided. See. 2. The descendants of female staves, who may be born in this State after the adoption of this con sl'uution, shall be free, as' tbey respectively arrive at the age of twenty-five years ; Provided, they are in the State, at, or ..after their arrival at that age. Sec 3. Those persons, the descendants of female slates, who may go free, under the foregoing provi sion, shall be placed under the public authority, aud held to service, till tne proceeds oi uwir luoonr or nire, will be sufficient to transport them to Liberia, or any other place, out of this State, which they may prefer, and to which tbey shall be removed. The writer anticipates that the .effect of this scheme, will be to cause the greater portiou of the Slaves to be removed, to the Sooth ; and the issue in Rome recognised him, and the illustrious fugi tive arrived in Gaeta on the night of the 25th, with out experiencing the least danger.
