Fror the Bjitoa Daiy Adtertlter Jy 15. Mississippi ami Atlantic ll;iilro:i1. We have iepe;itedly adverted to tlie v&nMM prjected routes f Railroad and Meam communication between the Atlar.tic coast and the Mississippi valley, some of them extending to the AiitiFippi river ielf. One of liiere is by way of the Western, and New York Railroads. Lake Erie, the central .Michipan Railroad, hading frotn Detroit to !St. Joseph or (Jliienjro, and a Railroad thence to Galena or some other point on tlic Mississippi. Another consists in part of a divergence from the above line, at Buffalo, by a Railroad extending along the south shore of Lake Erie to Toledo, and thence through the northern part of Ohio and Indiana to Chicago. A third route proposed consists of & further divergence from the Ijt mentioned line at some point on tiie south shore of Lake Erie, and extending" through the Slate of Ohi, and thence through Indiai.a from Richmond to Terre Haute, aud thence through Illinois to Sf. For the purpos-i of bringing thi- lat er projf-ct before the public, and brfore the h-gislature" cf the several States interested, a convention was held at India m polo in My last, of winch the II.n. William Jlcbb, Governor of the State of Ohio, was President. There wer eighty-eight members present, from the several States, and their proceedings indicated an earnest determination to carry the project int execution. Among the members prevnt a a delegate from the S?ate of llliimi. and one of the Vii-e Presidents, was Mr. W. S. Waif, formerly of this city. In Hunt's Magazine fir the present month, we find the fallowing reHrt of the adorers if Mr. Wait before this convention, in which the objects of the enterprise ore developed, to which we invite the attention f the reader. Further movements will probably be made in I he legislatures of Illinois and Indiana, for the pruti.otion of tliis object, of which we siiall not fail to take due notice, w ith a iew to inviting the cooperation of such of our readers as may be disposed to aid in the project. These western lines of Railroad, although they will admit of being extended t New York and ti.e Eastern States, by way of Lake Erie and Rulfilo, will also be connected with other Atlantic routes, particularly the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which now bids fair to be shortly extended to Wheeling, and With the Great Pennsylvania Railroad, which will lead from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh. In proporportioti os the several routes leading from the Atlantic to the confines of the Mississippi valley, shall be advanced towards the state of perfection winch they are destined to reach at no remote period, the extension of these lines to the Mi-ssisipi w ill become more important, and will command the increasing attention of the public.

AN ADDRESS. Delivered before the Railroad Convention he'd at In dtanapoli the 12A of .May, 1817. by If. S Wait, j de-legate from the State of Illinois. Hep tried fjr the j .Merchants' Magazine. The cornmeice of the West has received but little aid from the general government, although the navigation of . our lakes and rivers is not less important to the nation than the commerce of the ocean anil the population im- : mediately inlerestrd in its success is no less numerous, and ' pays as large an amount into the national treasury, as the Atlantic region. ; la ibe meintinne, let us neglect no duty which devolves opn us as citizens, or as independent Mites, in the en- ; tle.vr to accomplish that ready intercommunication which is the life of agriculture, .f manufacture, and of commerce which increases knowledge, anj promotes the useful arts, wh'ch overcomes prejudice, reconciles conflicting views, and teaches us that the due art of promoting our own individual interest, conssts in a liberal disposition to unite in alt just endeavors for advancing the general prosperity. Railroads, under the operation of the locomotive power, are now universally considered one of the most important facilities of commerce and of social intercourse. They have become common in Europe and America. Republics, monarchies, mixed governments, and d. spotisms, all acknowledge their utility, and hasten to avail themselves of the benefits which they are calculated to bestow. Not only the rugged hills of New England, and the iron mountains of Pennsylvania, echo to the shrill whistle of the locomotive, but thty have made their progress to the extreme youth, and are already pressing from all sides in- 1 to the valley of the Missisippi. j A continuous line of railroad, from the Eastern Atlan-1 la L.vJn s k a Vl 1 oi.t a.riA.. ik. 11 I I I I . a I moiect of verv recent dale. It has been . ,1 i.-et .,f nri. I vale discussion for many j ears ; and this most desirable enterprise might long since have been accomplished, to the benefit of the whole country, had not the commendable spirit for such improvements run wild in the pursuit of schemes for sectional and local advantage. A charter was applied fir during the late session of the 'gitlalure of Illinois, to construct a railroad from St. Lonis to Terre 10ite. The bill passed the House of Representatives, in that Slate, but failed in the Senate by one vote. Had this opposition been seasonably foreseen by the friend of lhe meaurf, and the atrencth of the Ic-! . rf - . . . . . 0 0 1 ialatare fairly tested upon tbia question, such an unprece dented result need scarcely hate been apprehended. The asKuranres since received, hnwever. from a quarter tobe relied upon, and a more just apprehension which now prevails relative I. the true character of the enterprise, his given confiJence to those farmers of the Slate ol Illinoii, who have rieht to demand this grant fr a road to market, as well as lhe public at lar,e, that no serioiu opposition will hereaf er be made to thi imst useful and Necessary meaxure. The convention to remodel the constitution of the State of IlliiiuU, come togi-ther in June Mi.iuld the new Constitution 1 accepted by the people, a session under its provision may confidently be looked for at as early a period as January next. At this time, the I grant of the defied charter will su'dy be accompliahed. vhoulJ no uneipected and aj terse change take place in pu'-'lic opinion. The action of the legislature of Indiana by the bill incorporafine a company to cons' ruct a lailroaJ from Terre Haute to Richmond, and the right ol way given by the Mate of Ohio fur it continuation through that State, eein now t) place thi greal enterprise, of a continuous railroad between lhe Atlantic ci ie ami lhe emporium of the West, f.iry within our reach, and to afford a rational 1 rospect of it early ronsutmnaiion To promote unity of design, and to be prepared for uttiste and efficient action, it is desirab'e that some attempt iiisic auu ri.icieui action, ii is oesirao e lual some attcmt at vrganiz ilioti amonnsl it friend should take place, auJ j that every preliminary measure which may be safely anj 1 profitably taken, should be embraced without unnecessary ' delay. There are always obstacles to be encountered in j setting useful enterprises on foot; perhaps, in lhe pres.- . ent instance, not greater lhan might have been anticipated; ' but if we are actuated ly the genuine spirit of American ! enterprise, auch obstacle will be readily overcon e, and so 1 far from diminishing rur zeal, may prove a stimulus that ' shall give a fresh impulse to our eiertiona. j This magnificent enterprise, whea accomplished, will surpass, in extent and importance, any public work upon thi continent, or, perhaps, in the world. The great rail j road nf the Linperor of Russia, to connect .M.w-cow with j St. Peterbugh, sinks into comparative insignificance when i compared with this; and, as a sure arid profitable investment for capiiat, uone can be devised that wnl surpass it It shoulJ, however, be fully impressed upon every mind, 1 thai an enterprise of this kind, to be successful, should be thoroughly and judiciously undertaken. I A railroad terminating at the present emporium of commerce, upon the Upp r Mississippi, should be constructed of sufficient capacity to accommodate all the business which might seek that direction fiom divergent line of railway, enending from commercial point on its right aud bft, from the shore of Lake Erie la the Ohio river. To enable such an enterprise to compete successfully with any other of the rime description, it shou d be thoroughly adapted to the wants and to the magnitude of lhe service expected from it: and it should equal, or, if possible, surpass, in safety, economy nf conveyance, capacity, and speed, any railroad now in existence. The Elates of O 110, Indiana, Illinois, snd Missouri, contain a population of inre than 4.000.000 at this time. When a densely populated a Massachusetts and the unexampled agricultural rapacity of this region assures u that tbey must be these four State will equal in number the whole population of Great lintain. We speak now of only fur contiguous Stares; but the entire valley of the Miaissippi, aheady containing lU.UOU.fJOO of souls, and the whole shore of th Atlantic are immediately interested in a grand central line of communication letween the great commercial, manufacturing, and agricultural regions. The ealley of lt. M ississippi, the most f. nile country in the wurld. with it 20,000 miles of i.vigatle river coant, nd ocriri likes, now hunches upon il water a commerce of more than $3ü0,Ü0U.000. in value. The great mediant vf commercial intercourse fr this region, is found in its nvighle waters ; hut to remeJy the incooveriier.ee nf drought and of frost, and to furnish a rapid travelling facility. besiJes 3" -riling the ready trieans of transportation to such point a are remote from riveis and canals, the ose of railroad i indispensable. We are now capable of sustaining them, and it is on'y necesary that we should b j idici'Mje in our first selection .of routes, and when the entertre is leuUo. endeavor to accomplish a w rk 'hsi sha'l be fully adequite to the public want. Cftwevn Boston and New York, there are already f.ur oJie.s by railroad, auJ a Tili 1 applied for. The trav-

citing from tluo point ha increased ine railroad were constructed, until il it nine times r realer than tho original projectors had anticipated. We can scarcely conceive of a limit to the inrruise of travelling upon a well-constructed railroad, which shall open a direct com

munication between our Atlantic count and the valley of the .MisonMppi. In a lew years it Will be, diCovered that not one nor two real linen of railroad will be enough. Titer will be required, and they will be acconipliiiliecj by tens ami twenties; and parallel, divergent, and right an led lines, will sinke every commercial town and agri cultural neighborhood of the Wert. There is a field too vast, too niHguificeiit, to permit the consideration of local or sectional views. There is room for the enterprise ol II. Agricultural commodities are of great weight and bulk, and at the same lime com pone the pnbulum which sustains all commerce. Compare the capacity of this region wilh any other in the known world, for the productions of the firm ; compare its facilities with that of any other, for the construction of railroads. The averatt cot ol Urittah rail road has been $1."7,000 a mile, and the investments yield 10 per cent. Ours would scarcely cost one tenth of this amount. The .M isc!mett railroads cot $40,000 a mile. The Lowell railroad, nun r.f the best constructed and most profitable, cost $73,000 a mile. They are all said to vield 8 per cent, at this time, and are improving. The tleailiti railroad, in Pennsylvania, nearly 100 miles long, cost $ I '.21,000 a mile. It is a profitable investment, and yet takes ordinary freight at less than one cent a mile n ton, and pausender at fin IT a cent a mile. A continuous railroad of suitable capacity, from St. Louis to the Ohio river, would not rrpial one-half the nut per mile of the Massachusetts1 railroads, nor onefilth the cot of the most profitable railroad in Pennsylvania. The New York and Erie railroad, of which only o? mites were completed in 1843, yielded frei j tit ei celling the amount of J: 1 01 ,000, in that year, ihn surpuwiii, in proportion to the distance run, the business of the ( i reut Western railroad, between ISostoii and. Hutfilo, lb value of which is well understood. This Tact may bo considered as demonstrating the immediate availability of :ny complete section in our proposed line. The mam line of railroad to Buffalo, 3.t mile in length, is owned by seven distinct corporations. It is described to be a lair investment, notwithstanding i's restriction as to freight. There would be a roundest advantage in the pn-jiu ted line, to unite the whole under one direction The New Yoik and Erie railroad, now in progress, lias a six loot wid:h of track ; the Great Western railrond of England, running between London and Bristol, is gauged to seven feet, whilst the ordinary track on American railroads, is but four feet eight inches. There mislil be a decided advantage lound in selecting a wider gauge. It would insure capacity and speed. And upon a trunk so important, which the lapse of a few years could scarcely lail to crowd to its utmost capacity, there would seem to be an evident propriety in embracing at once a completeness of execution, that might adapt it to all the service required. Considerations of this nature, comiot bn weighed at too early a date. Less diliicully would be met with, and less partiality exhibited now, in rcl.nion to many important preliminary arrangements, than we rould hope to escape when crowded upon the eve of action. It may be asked, what assurance have we, after the charters are completed, that capital In accomplish this great work could be hd ? A good promise of support has been offered ; but the chawier ol such an investment ath'riU in ttsell tin? only safe assurance of success. The wlioln length from St. Louis to Pittsburgh or heclinv, G00 miles, mijht he completed, upon the best construction, fir the gross sum ol $12,000,000, or not to exceed ftoo O00 a mile." Con. pare this work, in all its magnitude and promise, with the Reading railroad of Pennsylvania, 1)4 miles in length, which cost $11,500, UOO. Independently of its paramount importance in connecting the Atlantic region with the heart of the great valley of the Mississippi, the trade of the West villii ilsel would constitute il a safe and profitable investment. It would immediately intersect the rivers, canals and rail roads of Ohio ami Indiana, and embrace an intimate connection with the trade of an extensive populous and fertile region. Unt the eumuieicial and miscellaneous intercourse with the Atlantic States, would place it at once far beyond all competition from any existing railroad. If constructed as it should be, and rendered inferior to none in speed and capacity, the journey from the Atlantic to the Mississippi could be salely accomplished in lhirty-;ix hours; or in two days by day light trains. That this contemplated enterprise would prove a mo nopoly, we cannot he so short-sighted as to hope or de sire. A route Irotn LiifTih, along the shore of the lakes, to the Mississippi, is already contemplated ) another line may soon be expected between us and the lakes J and another still, between us and the Ohio river. Yet there is room lor all, nor need any enterprising citizen of the West, however located, entertain any fear but he will soon participate in the benefits arising from the general adoption of this new element of commercial intercourse. - V 1,1 " L" '? vdently for the , merest of the projectors. is it not for the inteiest of the winde West, that the first endeavor to connect the two great sections of the nation, should be made upon a central and commanding line? That this is one ol the best routes lor the enterprise, may readily be discovered by its position on the map of United States. It was selected by able and impartial men as the route of the greal Cumberland Road ; that noble enterprise of the nation, which has been lite victim of unexplained neglect. The selection has directed public attention to this point, and the importance and propriety of wie cnoice is aouuuaniiy connrmcd. tons tins appears Ut be lb mosl lm'""',ant mute, and decidedly 1I1 most 1:. . . . 1.... : ....... . l oiiiiiluic uii..iiii.iii5is, um c.uiviiice ua 1 iiiii anottier li preferable, and our whole influence shall be cast at once in its favor, fcncli, let us hope, may be the feeling which pervades this con veiition, and the public at large a disposition to unite their beat effort upon the strongest anil mosl practicable route.

The Express, the whig State paper published at Madison, Wisconsin Territory, was one of the first, we believe, to display the name of Gen. Taylor, as the whig candidate for the Presidency. Upon the appearance of the General's late letter, however, the Express lowers the Taylor fing, to tiie salute of a very sensible article, in which it says, 4,it is true, in electing a President, the man should be much considered; but the great national principles he advocates, should be considered more !" The Boston Whig says, flatly : 44 Gen. Taylor can't carry Massachusetts." This is honest, nt all events; much more so than the course of thoe whig presses who, having no love for the old soldier, are humbugging with him using him merely to drive his 44 friend," Mr. Clay, off the track, to make way for John McLean or some other man as acceptable lo northern whiggery.

The Ihicariiacioü Prisoner. The New Orleans Delta, of the 16th ult., gives an accounj of the arrival, in that city, of John Swigart, John Scott, W. llulman, P. Tunk and W. P. Dendwitz, prisoners taken at Enearnacion, in February last. The editor of the Delta, having had an interview with one of the prisoners, gives the following particulars of their capture :

The principal events of the capture of Majors r. tni-i nn.t . ...1 linrt.n.l'. n.rllo. . ..Til L ' ( m. i unit biiu 9 ai iico aic well niJOWil VJ our readers These officers, with three companies of ! Kentucky and Arkansas cavalry, were out on a two days' march beyond our main camp as a scouting party. It was thought that there were small bodies of the enemy's cavalry prowling about the country, but no one tiad the slightest apprehension that a large force could be so near Gen. Wool's camp. Major Gaines having joined Major Borland at a Rancho iiear Enearnacion, the two commands went into quarters for the night, after posting sentinels some distance in advance and on the top of the ioue in which they were encamped. That night the oftcers who, tired by a very long inarch, had lain down to sleep, were several times aroused by the a larms of the sentinel, who declared that he saw an armed Mexican approaching the Ranch. But the sentinels on the top of the house declared they could see nothing, and the man who gave the alarm was treated as a rather nervous and dreaming individual. The oIF.cers there upon again retired to their blankets, but had scarcely fallen asleep when they were aroused by another alarm from the sentinel, who declared that he had again seen an armed Mexican, and had pulled trigger on him, but, his gun being wet, the cap did not explode. Other alarms were also given by other sentinels picketed Mme distance from the Ranch. The night was now waning fast. It was very dark and misty. The officers betirred themselves, and arousing the men prepared to meet an attack, thinking that the enemy consisted of a force of four or five hundred, which Major Gaines had already been in pursuit of, and w hich he considered a force about equal to his own. Our men were all collected on the top of the Ranch, with their guns ready for action, full of courage and zeal, and warmly desirous of a handsome brush with the enemy. The morn broke slowly. The mist hung heavily around them, and although they could hear very plainly the approach of horsemen, they could see nothing. At last the light began to break through the mist, immediately in their front, and the faint outline of a strung body of armed horsemen was perceptible in the distance. And tis the mist rolled and gathered up into huge clouds, and gently ascended towards the neighboring heights, it revealed, with most painful distinctness, a whole regiment of splen didly equipped Mexican lancers drawn up in line of baue, and occupying a commanding position within three hundred yards of the Rancho occupied by Maj. Gaines's party. Undauntedly surveying and counting this strong force before them, our men prepared for action, crying out, "Oil there are are only six hundred of them its e fair fight and we'll see it out !" But stop ! Look on the right as the mist leaves that side of the Ranch, there is another regiment, just as strong as that in front. 44 Well,' cried a stalwart Kenturkian, who kept all the while a bright rye on his long rifle, 44 Miis is coming it rather strong; the thing looks serious, most decidedly; but I reckon we can lick a thousand Greasers, and throw in two hundred for good measure." Can't we!" was the unanimous cry of the party. L'ut, oh cranky," cried the tall sergeant, here's more of tho varmints." jnd there eure enough on the left was another regiment about six hundred strong, whose bright helmets, flaming pennons and showy uniforms, loomed out conspicuously in the dark horizon. And there too, just a few hundred yards in the tear, was still another regiment. Thus was thi3 small party of one hundred and twenty Americans entirely surrounded by a Mexican force of about three thousand cavalry, the finest in the country, aud commanded by one of their best officers. Undismayed, our men prepared for action, determined to sell their lives as dearly as possible. Never did men go more calmly and coolly to work than this little Spartan band, as with many a careless j st and with the most imperturable sang froid. they re-loaded and re-caped their rifles, looked to their cartouche boxes, felt the edge of their bowie knives, and glanced a proud defiance at their legion foe. in the me2n time the enemy preferred the most

whilst their buglers blew the Mexican charge, and made the hills resound with their loud and exulting blasts. Jlaj. Gaines ordered his bugler to respond to their 1 threatening flourish, by blowing with all his might. the American charjre, and directed the men to follow up that blast with three loud cheers. Tlie order was cheerfully and heartily obeyed. The Mexicans who were advancing upon the Uanch, were so awed br the loud yells and terrific huzzas of our boys that they halted, and looked at our little band in mute terror and astonishment that so small a party could make such a tremendous noise. "Give them three times three," cried out Capt. Caseins M. Clay, and the huzzas were prolonged to the full complement uih 1 .1 1 -1 ' .

In open order and with military precision the Mexicans him. An officer with an interpreter and white flag was sent to Maj. Gaines to demand his unconditional surrender. 44 Never," replied the gallant American. 'Then no quarter will be given," remarked the Mexican. Very well," exclaimed Capt. Clay ; "remember the Alamo ; before we surrender on 6ucli terms, more than five hundred of your yellow-belly scoundrels shall be left to bleach on yonder plains." This remark, the interpreter did not think lie could do full justice to in the translation, and lie left the officer to guess at its meaning; which, however, was no d.tucult task, as the Captain accompanied his declaration with very emphatic and expressive gesticulation. It was finally agreed that Maj. Gaines should have an interview with Gen Mifion. From him the Major received very courteous treatment, and was assured that in surrendering himself and his party they wouid be treated with all the consideration of prisoners of war. Maj. Gaines, on communicating the result of his interview with Gen. Mifion to his officers, took a vote whether they should fight or surrender, aud Captains Clay and Danby and Lieut. Davidson were for fighting, and Majs. Gaines and Borland were for surrendering. Whilst tbey were parleying with the Mexicans, Maj. Gaines observed that their men were approaching near to the Ranch. He immediately ordered his men to fire upon the Mexicans if they approached one 6lep nearer, and told their officers that he should not continue tlie parley until their men fell back to their original position, which they did in very quick order when a few rifles were levelled in their direction. They finally, Capt. Clay giving in to Majs. Gaines and Borland, agreed to surrender on the most honorable terms, as prisoners of war, the officers to retain their private property and side arms. They delayed the eurrendcr, however, as long as possible, with the expectation of being reinforced from Gen. Wool's camp. It was an express condition in the capitulation that the Mexican guide, who had been forced by Maj. Gaines to act in tlieir capacity, ehoulJ have a fair trial, and if he was acouitted. should be released. The Mexicans at first objected to this, but Capt. Clay said lie would die before he would surrender the unfortunate guide without assurance of his safety. - As soon as he was surrendered, the faithless Mexicans immediately murdered the poor fellow. The prisorers were then marched, without any food or water, for thirty or forty miles on the road to San Luis, under an escort of eighty lancers. After relating the escape of Capt. Henrie, the editor gives an account of the prisoners meeting Santa Anna on his way to Agua Nueva, in a large showy carriage drawn by six beautiful mules. Th prisoners also met Cnpt. Reiley, with his company, of about bU or 90 deserters from the American army, and were told that he was picking up more every day.

Here" it is : 44 On the next day, however, the spirits of the Mexicans were euinew hat restored by the arrival of the trophies of the bittle of Angostura. The three little cannons of Lieut. O'Frien, one of which, by the by, had been captured from the Mexicans by the Texans, and the colors of the Indiana regiments, together with a few markers, were brought into the city in a triumphal car, and were received with great parade by the people." is nof true that the colors of either of the Indiana regiments were lost in the battle cf Buena isla, or .Angotura. The fl; g of the 2d regiment, it is trim once fell to the ear'.h, but it was taken up by Major Dix, and haLded to the gallant Lt. Kütikle, who bore it aloft in triumph during the day. The manner in which that flag was riddled With cannon and musket shot speaks volumes for the good conduct of that jegimer.t. Capt. Sanderson, of the Spencer Greys, or his gallant company, still have the regimental colors in their iMses3ion. if we are not mistaken, and )onr r ' - will they stand in testimony against the base accusers of the gallant 'Jd. Ti.e 3d regiment also returned with their colors in triumph, and we envy not the eracity of one who would attempt to detract from the . a m v JUS t fame ol a regiment that never retreated. 10 make the assertion that such a regiment lost its colors would be an abs-urdity too ridiculous to think of. With all due charity to the editor of the Delta, we caDnct refrain from expressing our surprise that such a paragraph should appear in his paper after the 2d and 3d regiments had passed through the city of New Orleans on their return.
