THE MEMPHIS DAILY APPEAL WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 10. 1873. RAILROADS. Kalll-aaa- d Caasolldallea At a meeting ol tbe stockholders of the Mlaisipri River road and of the Padncab and Gulf road, which was held In the Pea-bod- y hotel yesterday, the articles of con- solidation between the two roads were unanimously rstifled. All the stock- holders were present and tbe utmost har- mony prevailed. The consolidated roads will be known as the Padaoah and Mem- phis railroad. The directors are only waiting now for the re urn of Colonel Meigs, who Is now with his corps of engineers in Dyer coun- ty, In order to pat the road under con- trast. Hatches and Jackson. The contractors, Messrs. royle, Cooley tt M urphy, says the Natchez Courier of me 6.h, who have undertaken to build the first eleven miles of the Nstchez and Jackson railroad, set their employes to work yesterdey morning. The work on the first aiaven miles wss began at a point near Minor's quarters, on the Pine ridge road, from which point it will be pushed both ways, toward and from Natchez, to a speedy completion. Thus hsa com- menced the actual work ot building the Natchez and Jackson railroad the great enterprise which promises future pros- perity to our. Hew Mgnals. Men are now engaged in erecting novel danger signals at every bridge and tunnel on the Hudson Biver railroad, to warn orakemen who are compelled at times to run along on the tops of trains of their near approach to such dangerous places A pole is arected by the side of the trsck and aa arm pr jeots from it at the top over the track. From this arm hangs an iron fringe, low enough to strike a brake man on the front piece of the cap or against the lace if he is standing op aa the train passes. This perceptibly notifies him mat he is only one hundred feet from the bridge or tunnel, and most lis down at enje. Tee blow Inflicted by the fringe is momentarily a stinging one, bat produces ! no evil results.

Mem puis must build railways intersecting lines running west from the luture eouiiuautal capital. Nature has given us every advantage the ell. cts of war and ravages of scats wags and cerpei-baggg- have been even moie detrimental, but we have enough to build a highway lo Kansas City, and another into .Northern Texas. These two roads will supply themselves with all needful branches, and the laws of climatology and the tact that Mempbis a point in iao shortest line Irom new York to tbe railway system of Texas, wm enable us to effect tne seme triuuipo over St. Louis thst mis city achieved in its contest with Chicago. When our pur poses are achieved, St. lxiuts will be harmed in nothing, but Memphis will be aggrandized even as St. Louis has been made a magnificent metropolis. PERSONAL. UgxxBAL B. M. B.

Commodore Maury, In a recent letter says that none can question tbe incalcu- lable value of immigration to a State. By the census of 1790 the population between the two sections, free and slave, waa, in round numbers, four millions. By tbe census of 1870, the total population now is thirty-nin- e millions, of which less than 15,000 0000 are in the former slave States, and more than 24.000,000 in the free. Now, where did this difference of 10,000,-00- 0 ot inhabitants come from? Tt did not come from any difference between the sections in tbe state of natural increase, for statistics clearly show that the South la quite equal to the North. It comes fro in Immigration, and shows that, of the immigrants who came into this country between 1790 and 1870, more settled in the North than in the South. Counting those who came into the country during this interval and their descendants, the census shows that last year there were 10,000,000 more of them at the North than at the South. Now, suppose that some sadden cala- mitylike that which befel Chicago and oer ain parts of Wisconsin last fall -- had come upon these 10,000,000, destroy ic them and all their possessions at a b o ; call to mind those sutumnal losses ana sufferings in that city and State, and then find if you can, with figures or words, expression for the loss that the North would suffer in such a case. The rate of natural increase in this country from decade to decade, as shown by statistics, is 13 8 per cent., and but for immigration tbe Norfoik Virginian shows thst the present white p tpulstion of the entire country wonld hsvs been but lu 0CO 000, instead of S5.000.000. Make the computation youselt The while popu-lstio- n in 1790 was 8 241,230 From whst I hsve seen and heard in Europe, and from what I know of the people there, I feel persuaded that the attempts to introduce Immigrants Into tne South are not to be crowned with satiafaicory sue seas, until the prejadlces against us tnat have been excited there by northern writers and Influences are removed, and that this cannot bs done by any thing short of combined scion by the southern Slates themselves. In removing these prejudices, thsy should give, st the same time, that. sort t f Information touching our cltmatea and productions, the natural resources of our Oouutry, her social Institutions, manners and customs, sa Intelligent emigrants de- sire to have of their new oountry, and such as any ot your readers wishing to settle in Brazil or Africa, or any other strange 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 ot the whole south. Follow up the idea; it is simple in detail, ana you will soon work it out. Suppose the funds be raised, and the work oe prepared apd properly illus trated with maps and drawings. I. is then, ont of the same Joint fond, trans- lated into the languages of the several countries from which immigrants are de- sired, and stereotyped the plates being placed abroad, from which the agents there, from all the States and all the pt en-e- m companies as well as individuals, in short, anybody may get copies of the re- port in the language required, at the mere cost ot paper and ink; ana thus all who read or cuculate the document would, pro tanto, be an unpaid agent of every South ern State. Each State and immigration company could then fouowtt up by show it'K the special lnducaments afforded by them, and so, Instead of Interfering with and obstructing individual enterprise, It would ass, st and encourage it. I need not develop the plan further, be causo .Lis ts its corner-stone- , and uocti 1 .no rsst depends. The States have been hobbung atoag and making passes as im migration in one way or another now for nearly sevan years. The degrees ot success mat they nave achieved is enough to convince the legislatures that they none of them have gone to work ia the right way. Yours, truly, M. F. MAUBY. FREE-LOV- E. Answer of Rev.

The eye of the anxious owner wandered up and down the river's bank in search of his neat craft, but she appeared not. He learned upon iLquiry .that very early in the morning a man named Cornelius O'Mur- - phy was seen leaving the tug in a skiff and steering his oourse up the river. This Cornelius O'Murphy is a dweller in Chel sea, and had been employed all last sum mer and fall by Mr Belly as engineer on the boat, but he quit at a time when the owner could least sfford to part with him. aud when it was not convenient to get ai omer man right away. Belly felt indig- nant at whan he considered such mean treatment, so he refused to settle with Murphy at once, and told him that he should wait till Saturday aa a punish ment for his meanness. Thereupon they parted. It appears there was a plug In the hold ot the tug known only to Mur- phy and the owner, and It is surmised hat ehe was sunk by pulling the plug out. Coinslius O Murphy was arrested at his bouse ysterday morning and brought before Justice Miller, who will Investigate the case GOOD SELECTIONS.

Whereas, Men capable of satisfactorily performing the many arduous duties ot letter-carrie- rs can only be obtained and retained as such by giving them In exchange for their hard and continuous mental and phy; ical labor, a greater remuneration than that we now give them.

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

Therefore we respectfully request youto use your irfiuenoe to haetsn the psssage of the Hon. Leonatd Meyer's bill, orany bill to Increase the salsry .of let.er-carrier- s
