TH.UtvSL.AV.. ..OcTOBEU 14, 1S6S Thi Boston correspondent of the Chicago Tiibune says it may be set down as an actual fact stated on suffi cient authority, that Mr&. Stowe is now really engaged on the final an i wer on her side of the question, rceetinir all that has been said on the subfeet ob either side of the water. It m " will undoubtedly be given to the pub lie in the same way with her original article; bat whether it will be ready. fhr the November number of the At lantic Monthly, which must be now mostly printed, is doubtful. ===== MINING STOCKS IN CALIFORNIA.— The San Francisco <Bulletin> says the mining stocks sold in the stock board there are worth about $5,000,000 less now than they sold for nine months ago. Until the psst [sic] six months mining stocks have been favorite and easily managed collaterals with the banks, and thus brokers and others were largely aided in carrying on their sharp operations: but of late bankers fight shy of stocks. The belief appears to be gaining ground among them that their money is much safer in the hands of those who borrow with the honest object of developing some interest which will tend to build up the State, than with those who want it merely to create fictitious values in stocks. ===== Return to Specie Payments. The New Yoilc-Evening Post, which has its days of political eccentricities and is at times a little rash in its financial views, remarks that we are no nearer specie payments than when Mr Botjtwenl took charge of the Treasury. The Boston Journal says that Mr. Boctwell is reducing the debt seven or eight millions a month. and in that exact ratio we are ap proaching the day of resummon Oar bonds arc payable, principal and interest, in gold. Duties are payable in gold, and when there is a eurplus of gold received from duties, it would appear to be both sensible and pru dent to exchange a part of this eur lus for our cold obligations. A shrewd merchant will buy his own paper and thus reduce his indebted ness. and this is the course Mr. Bout WELL is pursuing. The Louisville. Kew Albarij & St Louis Railroad. The Chief Engineer of this enter prise. I. M. St. J OUN,. has made his preliminary survey, and his report to the Directors is published in full, in the New Albany Ledger of Monday. It gives in detail tho character of different routes, dividing the Indiana portion of the road into five divisions. We have not room for the report in full, but copy the summing-up, as being of interest to our readers. The Engineer says: The length of lines in the Indiana Division, both upon the route calculated and upon the two connecting lines, with their calculations nearly completed, will range upon the maps of the preliminary survey from 113 to 113 4-10 miles. These distances are between five and six per cent, of the air line distance, a variation small even as comSared with the easy country of the forthwestern Railrcads; and this distance may be slightly reduced in location. The Southern route, (surveyed a3 stated, to embrace a desirable local trade,) will be somewhat longer, yet certainly within the limits ol a just consideration of competing routes. As to the engineering characteristic;! of these lines: Your company desires a survey and estimates for a firstclass road, and one preparing to place Louisville and New Albany upon an attractive route of through travel, from the Pacific Railroad and St. Louis West, to leading points East, and for a passenger speed of at least thirty miles an hour. This, of course, controlled tho survey in grade alignment, and in the estimate of cost. The experimental lines were accordingly run for a maximum grade of sixty feet per mile, and a minimum radius of 955 feet. But upon the short Knob grade so close to the New Albany depot yard, alternative lines were run for 66 and 73 feet grades, the latter still under the ruling grades of the Louisville and Nashvile Railroad,. to ive tae xoara luu information, should circumstances dictate a modification of the original plan. If adopted, the latter grades would of course reduce the estimate of cost beiow given. Bat even in this preliminary paper your engineer, in cold duty, adverts to the pressure too often brought upon preliminary estimates to "start work and afterwards amend." Apart from right, your enterprise has strength and merit enough to carry from the outset full and careful estimates and good work: STIMATB OF .COST FOB INDIANA MVISION. Uradaation, znasonery and tunnel work- 51,731,114 Track superstructure, including aidlags, and depot yards...... 1,413,000 Brlage n: perbtructure UoJtsiiS Depot, v;.ter-etalioiis, road crossings, A,;., &o 200,000 Contingjncles, including engineering, general superintendence and ;uu'" proportion or cost, Wanaa n rvii A ----- . basa. bridge... 300.CO0 mt. ... 13,760,582 I ho equipment in rolling stock you desire, in view of the contemplated arrangements, not to le included in the estimate total. If so included, it would add from $250,G00 to $300,000 to the above estimates, according to the precise final arrangement that may be made either to jointly work or consolidate with the Illinois division. The above estimates of total cost can of course be materially reduced by using timber trestling, omitting ballast, and by accepting other temporary expedients, together with steeper gradients in the location. But per mit your engineer now m advance to advise against that policy which too often sacrifices important interests to temporary expedients. Tho cities of the Ohio Falls are rapidly assuming the metropolitan status which makes a direct railroad to St. Louia and the Pacific Railroad, with uniform gauge and under the control of Louisville and New Albany, all simply a question of time. If the alternative should ever be presented, therefore, may it not be better to wait a little, if necessary, to gather financial strength, rather than make a premature commencement with work imperfectly prepared for the end desired vix.: a first-class railroad between leading cities?

The Engineer also reports on the

Illinois division of the road. As this point of the road promises to const! tute a portion of the Evansvillci Carml and St. Louis Road, we copy all he has to say on that branch of the work: THS ILLINOIS DIVISION. The air line distance from Mt Vermel to St. Louis is about 123 ui:Ie. o which a judicious location will a-id a percentage of increase. At pre.-ent two companies have organized under State charters QT btia this wot k Tk, . trom Mr. Carm-.l to Jit.

He has also arranged to s:art and close his county and private subscriptions when initia tive steps upon the Indiana division will justify such action ; for his coad jutors are' now cautious in again moving in a new worK, witn tnree railroads commenced in Wabash and the adjoining counties, and not one completed. This company, the New Albany, Mt. Carmel and St. Louis Railroad, by their charter control by purchase nr condemnation the old Alt. Oarmei and St. Loui3 Railroad grade; and they also have the power, as 1 am informed, to build west from Mt. Ver non to St. Lous. Should it ever be desirable, a Darallel road bed on either division can be prepared at verv low cost, so favorable is the oonntrv for railroad construction But from int. Vernon, bearing slinhtlv south of the air line, the South Eastern Railroad Company havo located and are building a road for local advantages, through the country around Ashley,-Nashville, Mnsootah. and Belleville to fct. Louis. This road bed is nearly completed from Mt. Vernon (16 610 miles) to Ashlev Junction, on the Illinois Central Railroad, and cars are ex nected to run through by or before December 1st. Graduations are also in active pro gress on the sub division from Ashley to Nashville, eleven miles, ana prep arations are made to work the next sub-division through to Belleville thirty-four miles, during the comirg working season. Jjrom lseiievine to St. Louis, fifteen miles, cars have been running for some time. This railroad connection from Mount Vernon to Nashville and St. Louis has teea cx pedited by the local pressure for out let irem inericn agricultural uisiriuis of which thev are trading centres and it is built as a local road. The line is from three to four miles longer than the direet or air line irom Mt. Vernon to St. Louis, but offers an extensive and valuaDle loca traffic. A Louisvillo connection is earnestly desired by the people on the line, and especially by the parties constructing the work, but i tho Mt. Carmel and Indiana Rail roads are not soon commenced they proceed with the Shawnectown and Evansville branches, already contem plated, and for which some county subscriptions are reported to have been voted. Further particulars of this organization, and of the country and progress of the work from Mt. Vernon west of St. Louis, will be given to you by the Secretary, who went to secure, from personal observations and inquiry, absolutely certain information for your Company. But upon the .Eastern Illinois Division, from Mt. Carmel to Mt. Vernon, I report upon the usual engineering data, based upon myown personal examination in the vicinity of Mt. Carmel, and from the notes and map of Mr. McEifatrick, assistant engineer, whom I sent to examine all portions of the line which my engagements did not permit me to see. The lino from Mt. Carmel to Mt. Vernon, with the exception of a few crossings of low grounds (the most important now graded), is almost all surface work, and would be classed as light railroad grading. JJcr this distance (b to o-i miles. according to final location and cut off lines adopted), the alignment is un usually good, the grades very easy, and in the grading heretofore done miles are now available after twenty years wear, presenting an almost con tinuously eood road bed, which, with slight work on culverts and trimming up, can be quickly made ready for track-laying, rive miles more ot the grading is partially, and the residue. 35 miles, can be cheaply and quickly constructed. Air. Mcr-ltatrick reports a local interest in the work, local wealth and movements for county subscriptions, which confirm the pledge of the President to complete his work from Mt. Vernon to Mt. Carmel before the Indiana work can, under any possibility, reach the Wabash at Mt. Carmel. Combining the Illinois and Indiana divisions, you have thus a distance with good alignment and moderate frade of 175 miles from New Albany, ndiana, to Mt. Vernon, in Illinois. Also adopting a connection with the southeastern line from Mt. Vernon, Nashville, and Belleviljf to St. Louis, now well under way and rapidly approaching completion, through very desirable country, you have a through distance from the Falls of the Ohio of 251 miles, and this distance can be reduced at least five mile3, or a total of 2-16 miles, should occasion require. Upon this line the running time from Louisville and New Albany to St. Louis could easily be made in ten hours, without change of gauge, transhipment, or any obstruction or discrimination in f reights. Tiie Romance of Real Life. The New York Mail relates that about twenty-two years ago a North ern gentleman and a young lady of New York were married, evidently very haDDily. About a year later a fine boy was born to them, and seemed to be an additional bond of affection. At the end of ten years the gentleman met with a reverse in business and became quite poor. By mutual agreement a divorce was obtained in one of the Western States, and the gentleman went South. The lady was fine looking, and in a few years married again, her husband being well-to-do in the world. It was a happy marriage throughout and lasted till a little more than a year ago, when the second husband died, leaving his widow a urtune of $20,000. At this time the son had reached tho age of twenty years. Unhappy at the separation of his father and mother, he induced the return of his father from Costa Rica, where he was unavailiugly seeking to mend his broken fortunes, and brought about an interview with his widowed mother. They talked matters over, and the result was that on Wednesday tho son had the happiness to celebrate the anniversary of his twenty-first birthday by witnessing tho extraordinary scene of the marriage of his own father and mother 1

EransYillQ Delegation Eallroads Democrailc stronghold Personal. Lon-viLr.E Hotel, October 12. Editors Journal: The Evansville Delegation to the Convention, not, however, without broken ranks, arrived here safely at 8:30 last night. Mr. John S. Hopkins received a dispatch at Patoka n calling him to Evansville, as an im portant witness in a case pending in ne of the Courts. His detention is o be regretud. The Delegation now on the ground consists of John Ingle, Jr., Cpf. F. P. Carson. Matt. Ileniiog, Levi Igl-heurt, Isaac Keen, Dr. DeWitt C. Keller, with your humble servant to look after their morals. ' The day was gloomy and damp, with rain from noon till midnight, and but little opportunity was afforded to take observations by the way. The route was by the E. & C, U. & M., and the .Louisville, New Albany and Chicago Railroads, and as far as the travel was concerned, was very pleasant. Of the E. & C. Railroad it is un necessary to speak. It is known by all travelers as one of the smoothest and safest railroads in the whole country, and possessing the most nleasant and accommodating officers and attaches. Jim Ferry was master of ceremonies on this occasion. The Ohio and Mississippi Railroad. under the management of Mr. W. D. Griswold, who wa3 formerly connected with the E. & C, has been made a good road, and i3 now considered as safe as any io the West. The road bed and track are in excellent condi tion, and further improvement are being, pushed forward. The elegant parlor cars which are used with every train make traveling by this route a real luxury. The scenery along the lino is naturally wild and romantic, but the day was so disagreeable that we could see but little of it except through the small windows of the parlor car. That the hilly, rocky country between Loogootee and Mitchell should be inhabited, or that any attempt should be made to cultivate it. while the broad fertile plains of tho west are lying unoccupied, offering wealth to industry, seems strange. Little patchcs.of stunted corn, miserable, log huts and haggard, gaunt specimens of humanity, with the rugged hills, the beetling cliffs and the tine forests, in dicate that it was originally designed by nature for a vast solitude. But man has sought out many inventions, and this portion of our great State has been profitably employed by the inventive gonias of politicians for the production ot Uemocratic voters. The census taker never could pene trate these wilds to ascertain the dod ulation. and tho Democratic Central Committees of the First and Second Congressional Districts and of the State can draw upon these solitudes for all the votes they want. it they had made a little closer calculation. in 1SG3, Gov. Baker would have been beaten. General. Fremont should be sent through this wilderness on an exploriog expedition, to ascertain just how many John Smiths, Tom Joneses and Jim Browns are impro vised in these latitudes every two years, to aid in swelling the Democratic vote. The result would astonish the most credulous. Men that could live on such land, in such a wilderness, never could know enough to vote any othor than the Democratic ticket. We were astonished to find the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago llailroad in such excellent condition as it is at present. The track is smooth and the road bed solid and in good repair, and the rolling stock ap parently hrst class, and we are told it is doing a good business. Mr. John P. Bentley.the conductor of our train, has been on the road for 10 or 12 years, ana has always been esteemed one ot the most pleasant, careful and accommodating young gentlemen in the business. In addition to the delegation to the Commercial Convention, we bad as traveling companions Captain Allen Duncan and Guy Vinyard. of tho Sam. Orr, David Pearson, late mate of the Cumberland and Phantom, and Captain Alex. Howell, of the firm of Howell & Millspaugh, Shawneetown, all of whom, with several others, have been summoned here as witnesses in the case of the investigation of the cause of tho explosion of the Cumber land. At Mitchell we were joined by Captain Bill Halliday, of Cairo, J. H. Oberly, Esq., editor of the Cairo Bulletin and Mayor of that humid city, and had also the pleasure of making the acquaintance of Colonel J. b. Williams, editor of the Kansas City Bulletin, and Colonel Hunt, of Kan sas Uity, who are also delegates to the Convention forming altogether a very pleasant party. Oberly, of the Bulletin, is in fine condition, and bears the blushing honors that cluster around him with becoming modesty and dignity but will insist that Caiio is the driest, cleanest, healthiest and most prosper ous city on the continent. A great drawback to the Drosnerity of the Louisville, New Albany & Chi cago llailroad is the teaious and perilous transfer from New Albany to Louisville, which necessitates the martyrdom of a ride of an hour and a half in a crowded omnibus, over a rough road and rougher streets. Until this difficulty is overcome, tho traveling public will generally prefer the Seymour and Jeffersonville route. The train reached New Albany at 7 P. M., and it was nearly nine before we reached our hotel in Louisville. The city is full cf people, and the Convention to day will open with full delegations from a large number of States. All the Southern S ates are largely represented. Amongtthe delegates from Louisiana we aro pleased to meet Mr. John Bingham,of New Orleans, and Capt. Greathouse, both well known in your city. x Millard Fillmore i3 here, and had a grand reception yesterday, John C. Breckinridge, Jesse R. Grant and many other prominent men of the country are here. The weather is clearing up this morning, and promises to be pleasant. More anon, S. It is reported from Atlanta that the Democratic leaders of Georgia have proposed to reinstate the expelled negro members of the Legislature on condition that the political offices at Gov. Bullock's disposal are shared with them. The Era spurn3 thi3 oiler, and demands the reinstatement of the negro members of the Legislature as a matter of right. Democbatic Candidate for the Connecticut Governorship. The Meriden Ilepuhlican understands that Mr. Wheeler, firm of Wheeler & Wilson, Bridgeport, is to be brought forward as the Democratic nominee for Governor of Connecticut. The information comes from a high Democratic authority, and is in every respect reliable.
