Kalll-aaa- d CaasolldalleaAt a meeting ol tbe stockholders of the
Mlaisipri River road and of the Padncaband Gulf road, which was held In the Pea-bod- y
hotel yesterday, the articles of con-solidation between the two roads wereunanimously rstifled. All the stock-holders were present and tbe utmost har-mony prevailed. The consolidated roadswill be known as the Padaoah and Mem-phis railroad.
The directors are only waiting now forthe re urn of Colonel Meigs, who Is nowwith his corps of engineers in Dyer coun-ty, In order to pat the road under con-
trast.

The work onthe first aiaven miles wss began at a pointnear Minor's quarters, on the Pine ridgeroad, from which point it will be pushedboth ways, toward and from Natchez, toa speedy completion. Thus hsa com-menced the actual work ot building theNatchez and Jackson railroad the greatenterprise which promises future pros-perity to our.

From this arm hangs an ironfringe, low enough to strike a brake manon the front piece of the cap or againstthe lace if he is standing op aa the trainpasses. This perceptibly notifies himmat he is only one hundred feet from thebridge or tunnel, and most lis down atenje. Tee blow Inflicted by the fringe ismomentarily a stinging one, bat produces !

IMMIGRATION.
Commodore Maury's Views.
Commodore Maury, In a recent lettersays that none can question tbe incalcu-lable value of immigration to a State. Bythe census of 1790 the population betweenthe two sections, free and slave, waa, inround numbers, four millions. By tbecensus of 1870, the total population nowis thirty-nin- e millions, of which lessthan 15,000 0000 are in the former slaveStates, and more than 24.000,000 in the free.Now, where did this difference of 10,000,-00- 0
ot inhabitants come from? Tt didnot come from any difference between thesections in tbe state of natural increase,for statistics clearly show that the Southla quite equal to the North. It comesfro in Immigration, and shows that, of theimmigrants who came into this countrybetween 1790 and 1870, more settled in theNorth than in the South. Counting thosewho came into the country during thisinterval and their descendants, the censusshows that last year there were 10,000,000more of them at the North than at theSouth.
Now, suppose that some sadden cala-mitylike that which befel Chicago andoer ain parts of Wisconsin last fall --hadcome upon these 10,000,000, destroy icthem and all their possessions at a b o ;
call to mind those sutumnal losses anasufferings in that city and State, and thenfind if you can, with figures or words,expression for the loss that the Northwould suffer in such a case.
The rate of natural increase in thiscountry from decade to decade, as shownby statistics, is 13 8 per cent., and but forimmigration tbe Norfoik Virginian showsthst the present white p tpulstion of theentire country wonld hsvs been but lu0CO 000, instead of S5.000.000. Make thecomputation youselt The while popu-lstio- n
in 1790 was 8 241,230From whst I hsve seen and heard in
Europe, and from what I know of thepeople there, I feel persuaded that theattempts to introduce Immigrants Intotne South are not to be crowned withsatiafaicory sue seas, until the prejadlcesagainst us tnat have been excited thereby northern writers and Influences areremoved, and that this cannot bs doneby any thing short of combined scion bythe southern Slates themselves.
In removing these prejudices, thsyshould give, st the same time, that. sortt f Information touching our cltmatea andproductions, the natural resources of ourOouutry, her social Institutions, mannersand customs, sa Intelligent emigrants de-
sire to have of their new oountry, andsuch as any ot your readers wishing tosettle in Brazil or Africa, or any otherstrange land would court.
For .his, I suggest, not a "physical sur-vey" of tne soutn, but a report aa above,treating also of the physical geography otthe whole south. Follow up the idea; it issimple in detail, ana you will soon workit out. Suppose the funds be raised, andthe work oe prepared apd properly illustrated with maps and drawings. I. isthen, ont of the same Joint fond, trans-lated into the languages of the severalcountries from which immigrants are de-sired, and stereotyped the plates beingplaced abroad, from which the agentsthere, from all the States and all the pt en-e- m
companies as well as individuals, inshort, anybody may get copies of the re-port in the language required, at the merecost ot paper and ink; ana thus all whoread or cuculate the document would, protanto, be an unpaid agent of every Southern State. Each State and immigrationcompany could then fouowtt up by showit'K the special lnducaments afforded bythem, and so, Instead of Interfering withand obstructing individual enterprise, Itwould ass, st and encourage it.
I need not develop the plan further, becauso .Lis ts its corner-stone- , and uocti 1
.no rsst depends. The States have beenhobbung atoag and making passes as immigration in one way or another nowfor nearly sevan years. The degrees otsuccess mat they nave achieved is enoughto convince the legislatures that theynone of them have gone to work ia theright way. Yours, truly,
M. F. MAUBY.

A TUG-BOA- T SUNK.
c. O'Mnrphy Arreated oa Ssntplclon ofHaving "Hone the Deed."
The little tug-bo-at belonging to P. G.Kelly was not to be found at her moor-ings yesterday morning. The eye of theanxious owner wandered up and downthe river's bank in search of his neatcraft, but she appeared not. He learnedupon iLquiry .that very early in themorning a man named Cornelius O'Mur- -phy was seen leaving the tug in a skiffand steering his oourse up the river. ThisCornelius O'Murphy is a dweller in Chelsea, and had been employed all last summer and fall by Mr Belly as engineer onthe boat, but he quit at a time when theowner could least sfford to part with him.aud when it was not convenient to get aiomer man right away. Belly felt indig-nant at whan he considered such meantreatment, so he refused to settle withMurphy at once, and told him that heshould wait till Saturday aa a punishment for his meanness. Thereupon theyparted. It appears there was a plug Inthe hold ot the tug known only to Mur-phy and the owner, and It is surmisedhat ehe was sunk by pulling the plug
out. Coinslius O Murphy was arrestedat his bouse ysterday morning andbrought before Justice Miller, who willInvestigate the case
