Tho writer is endeavoring to sliow that the prolils orr railroads would ho m-ereased by reducing ihe ralies for iravellingand trans portation, ami to Ibis end he compares the rail-road statistics of this country and of Belgium A most valuable sraiislical Bailor, bearim: strong ly on lire point in view, Iras lately boon given to the American public by the lle valiei cb; ner, a German engine er, he, has been engaged since 182-1 in the cousiruction of leailruudssueeessively in Aus tria and leussia, and who has devoted the last year lo a careful examination of all American Rail roads. M. ce Gerstuer estimates that tlre-ro were on the first, of July last three thousand miles of Railroads in operation irr the United Slates; and that, at. the close of ihe current year, the aggregate wull have been increased lo four thousand one hundred rmhs. There are four hundred and Iwouty-live locomotives irow running upon litem.

The; average COM of Railroads iu this country is about twenty thousand dollars per mile, making an aggregate of sixty millions of dollars as the cost of the thn-e thousand miles already completed. So much for cost now lor income The average transportation per annum on each mile of completed American Railroad is 35,000 passengers at li cents per mile, and 15,000 tons ol goods at 7i cents per mile together amounting to to which may be added $200 lor receipts from mail transportation arrd coulirrgencies making in all 3,075 as the gross annna! income Irom e-acli mile of Railroad in this counrry. The cost ol transportation tor thesanie amounts lo SlJaO, $1 125 as the net annual product, or about hi percent mteresl orr the hrsl cost ot per miie. This is more encouraging ihau we believed but when it is farther considered llrat there is an annual increase of some 15 lo 20 ner cent, in iheirav- erage income, it must ho obvious that the prospects ot American Kailroads are most auspicious, anei thai there can h-lrdlv be a doubt that, while tha public is signally benefitted by, the stockholders will yet derive a handsome profit from, their con struction. Now for the Railroads of Beltrium These are more recent even ilcin our own, owintf th -ir origin to the Revolution ot i8a0and the desire ol tlie new Government to consolidate the meiepeiidence of tire country auu give stability to the new order ot things.

The of improvement by Railroads was commenced in May, 1834, as a measure of pub-public policy, and is to be carried tiirough by the Government alone. When completed, ihe principal towns will he connected by a net-work of Railroads, touching the two seaports of Antwerp and Osiend, at two points reaehtn'r the French Irontier, and at one that oi Germany. Onchuudred ami hl- ry-nirre mile-sol Railroad, only. had been completed up to the close of last year, viz one line running from Antwerp tlir-ouh Aralrnea, Louvairr Tirlemont and Waremme. to Aus.

einhiv-one and a halt miles; one Irom Mahnes through 1 ermonde, Ghent and Bruges, to Osiend, seventy-seven and a half miles total, one hundred and iifry-riine miles. About tevo-tliirels ol the hrsl and all the second line were compleied and put in operation between tile 1st of Seprcmbar, 1837, and the same period of J8.eS, The average cast of the Belgian Railroads, in cluding locomotives and cars, is $4 1,300 per nriie, or double that ot American railroads, M. do. Gcrst-nor gives us no reasons lor this remarkable difference against so level r- country as Belgium, where labor is so eleciuealy ana iron must be somewhat ctreaper than wrth us. Probably the cheapness of timber in America must account for some portion of the difference, and the far greater number of engines, cars, fee.

required by tire vastly more extensive travel orr the Belgian Railroads may account for the; residue. Theaverage rale of motion in Belgium is 17 miles per hour, stoppages included in ibis country, from lei 15 miles per hour. The delay from stoppages must bp much grenier in Belgium than here, owing to tire iin- greaier density of population and the vasr-ly bircer number ol' passengers We have now considered most points of comparison bur those directly bearing upon the topics suggested iu ihe commencement oi tliearticle, viz; the rates ot transportation, and the influence of cheapness in increasing the number of travelers by Railroad. On this point, the Belgian official statement (from which M. de Gerstner draws his facts) is peculiarly instructive- On the Belgian railroads there are 4 classes of vehicles, ail proceeding in the same train, but at rates proportioned to the accommodations aliorded.

1 he hirrh-vst rate ot passage is, however, but 21 cents per mile; thence descending to 2 cents, find for iho lowest class of nassemrers to 8 mills per mile. At these rates, the transportation of paisengers on these Railroads Ires been beyond all precedent, in 1833, (to May, '36,) with than twerny miles completed, tiiere were 503,201 passengers transported an average of Hi miles-, in the fast eight niuuths of 1830, there were 729,545 passengers transporied an average ol 20 miles; in 1837, there wore passengers transported an average ot 17i miles; and in tbo first ten months ol 18 03, there were: 1,921, 019 passengers transported an avoiaire of Zzl miles an amount of transportation on less than 140 miles of Railroad (for more than one third of the whole 159 miles was completed witbui this year) must be iinurecGelenred in tho history of Hi'; world. Very little freight has yel been transpoi ied on the Belgian Railroads, the country being lull ot canals. I ne anient ol navel on thes; Roads lseauivaleut to 300.001) nassengers per annum over the entire completed distance the charge for transportation averaging about one cent and one-tenth per mile. This extremely low rate renders Railroad traveling lime and all thingscon-sideie i-inuch elu-aoer than any other, even pedestri an, and cuuse-ouontlv attracts lire enrire travel ol ihe country, except of the very few who travel letsurely and wirh-ju reglrd to expense.

nfLouisvn.i.n LiTiirary News Lettek: Published by Frenlice Weissinger. LOUISVILLE MONDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1839. PURITY OF ELECTIONS. Having been recently engaged in reading the opinions of Henry Brougham upon matters of science, literature, religion, anil politics, we were reminded, during the perusal, of a subject upon which we intended to address our city lea ders before this. We allude to the very fraudu.

lent manner in which our elections are generally conducted. Lord Biougham draws a very striking and disgusting picture of scenes at a Liverpool election, which, we regiet to say, may find, to a certain extent, a counterpart in this city. With a view of showing this, we quote a portion of a speech delivered by his Lordship In 1834. He says: I never read a more disgusting, or witnessed a more offensive, spectacle of universal corruption than I witnessed in one of the Liverpool elections; which election, I think, took place in the year 1830. During that election two houses were open, tn which a regular piece of machinery was prepared, by means of a slip in the wall, for the corruption of the voters.

To these houses the wretched freemen were brought by persons less excusable than themselves, because in better circumstances of life, and consequently not exposed to the same temptation to these houses, however, the freemen were brought, and actually, in the course of the day, paid 5 each for their votes. The market rising on the next day to 20, 30, JE40, aye, and as the day advanced, to 60, 70, 80; and in one instance, as the poll was about to close, to 120. Thus weie men bribed foi doing that which, If they did at all, they ought to do purely, honestly and conscientiously; and thus was a spectacle exhibited, so marked by every disgusting feature of corruption, as to be Incapable of more than a moment's contemplation by the mind." Such are the views of probably the first man of the age certainly one of the ablest writers and most eloquent orators of any age. He expresses himself strongly, as every man should do, who values the purity of the elective franchise. It would be well for this country, if every man, who feels an interest in preserving the integrity of the Constitution and laws of the land could be made to feel strongly upon this -subject, and led to set himself firmly against the nractices witnessed at elections.

The slightest Impurity in an election this year may form a precedent for an enormity next year. In all elections, among all parties, there are cer tain active spirits, who are responsible for most of these evil practices, and, if they could be in tluced to change their course of action, an im portant step towards reformation would be ta ken. In the intdst ot an excited canvass, men are frequently hurried into the performance of deeds upon whioh they would look with disgust in their cooler moments. But they may resolve upon the line of conduct to be pursued befor this heated season overtakes them, and, by pur. suing an undeviating course of integrity, may ihomulves from much remorse, and the laws of their country from many wounds.

An apology is often found for these corrupt practices In the plea, that the opposing party will resort to such steps and must be anticipated; the opposing party laboring under the same impression, prepares itself for corruption, and thus they go on, acting and reacting upon each other; abadstep on one side justifying a similar course on the other, until both frequently lose sight of political principle in the contest for outstripping ach other in malpractices. A remedy for these things may bofoivid in the Latias'or uie active manual- -ii. it they resolve that money shall not bo iucd for electioneering purposes, tire practice will come to an end. In addition to this, betting upon elections should be discouraged, and prosecutions instituted for all such offences. The Legislature las done its duty towards preserving tho purity of the elective franchise, and it is for the conservators of the laws to see that they are enforced.

Sound and correct opinions in regard to the various and complicated machinery of corruption will lead to sound and correct action. The government of this country is based upon the principle that the people aie sovereign, and capable of self-government; and, while the sovereign remains pure, the government will be so to a very great extent. But, if the fountain tecomes contaminated, the stream must par take of its impurity. It elections aro to be carried with money, the republic ceasc-s to he a government of the people, and is transformed into a government of money; and wherever money is used in the greatest profusion, there will be the greatest strength in the poll and the greatest certainty of success. In such a state of things ev.

jery thing like good government corners to an end, and, in place of it, every species of moneyty-lanny becomes dominant. Already has this condition of the franchise obtained such a foothold, that it has become a common remark, that such and such men must succeed, because they have too much money to be beaten. If this state of affairs continues, it needs no soothsayer to tell how near the country is to an oligarchy or a money-aristocra cy. Under these circumslanc.es, it behooves every man who love3 the happy form of gover nment under which the country has thus far prospered, to take measures for stopping at once the downward career of things. There has been too much apathy upon the subject, and the people should rouse themselves to battle against these corruptionsthose elements of decoy.

Let no man think himself too humble and too insignificant to bear a part in this reform. AH ranks, classes and conditions, should set themselves In battle airay ngainat the corruption of the elective franchise, and the most humble citizen may do iris part by assisting fa forming a healthy state of public opinion, which will frown eveiy thing of the kind out of existence. And when it is understood llrat all such offenders will be ferreted out and brought to punishment, and they aro made 10 feel that they are looked upon as enemies of their race, but few will be found willing to face such appalling dangers. The country is yet young, and may be saved if seasonable Hurls are made lo put a stop to the corrupt practices of which wc have been speakirrg. But if something be not clone to arrest them, things will go on from bad to worse, until there will be rro republicanism to save, and lire people of tire United States will become the derision and scorn of the world They arc now the depository of the high he pes of freemen throughout the world, to them the friends of the rights of man, from every quarter of the globe, tuin their eyes frnur the night of despotism that glooms over ihfir own land; end, if the people of this country, forgttlul fit the high end glmious privileges Ihey erj slmSi madly and foolishly throw away their rights t.n.1 iappiiLess, and add anothe triumph to the cause of despotism, they will jchly deceive alt ihe smatiiernas that cn he pcuiod cjit upon them by an accusing posterity.

It is for the people, tiro sovereign peopie, to hay whether this thall be the consummation of the greit experiment of self-Government. With such horror do we lock upon tire corrup ions and impurities of the elective franchise, peon errpliieil on the coast ol Africa by II. li. hi. brig Harlequin, us a slaver, and surrendered lo Gov.

Tremendous Expiosiom.

We copy the following from lire Wesilield, Mass. Spectator. On Monday morning last, at about half past ten o'clock, the powder mills belonging te Messrs. Foot Gillet, standing about two miles west of this village, were blown up. There were three distinct explosions at intervals of twenty etr thirty seconds.

The lirst was the cylinder mill, which was a short tune since put in operation, and the workmen had left about five minutes previous and who were at the time working in the corning mill, about live rods distant and which blew up within twenty seconds, giving ihe men barely time to leave the mill and throw themselves into the brush within twenty feet And strange as it may appear, they escaped slightly injured one without a murk of injury except from being blackened by the powder, the other received a billet of wood in his breast. They had scarcely risen irom thtr hiding place, wdien the packing house, which contained four or five hundred barrels of powder exploded, prostrating them again and leaving not a vestige to mark the spot on which it stood. The groundfor several feet around was swept clean of every thing. A dwelling house landing near it was unrooted two sides were blown in, and not even a joist left standing. The plastering of the standing walls were shaken irom them.

The partitions broken to piece's, feather beds were 'shook up', and not a person of fhe six or seven in the house injured. The concussion was so great that buildings in the village received considerable injury from it. One building at least a mile and a half from the mills had twenty or thirty lights-broken out. and another had one window totally demolished, the casing being carried across the room. About ten thousand pounds of powder ready for sale, and nearly tho same quantity manufacturing, was burnt.

An Indian Council, says the Clricago American, was lately held at Notawassippi in St. Joseph Michigan, between Isaac S.

Aborrt three weeks ago, a young and beautiful daughter of Mr. Wood, a con fectioner of Philadelphia, was privately married to a young gentleman named Peak. About a week afterwards she returned to her father's house, when he walked up to her, took a pistol from his pocket, put it to her forehead, arrd shot her through the skull.

The poor girl was living arr hour or two af terwards, but there was not the slightest hope of her ecovery. The murderer was immediately ar rested. He is an The Boundary Wau. The Iowa Gazette states that Gov. Lucas has issued a second proclamation iu relation to Ihe disputed Territo ry between Missouri and Iowa, "being a teview of the late proclamation of the Govenor of Missouri on the question, and justification of the grounds occupied by Iowa." The same paper publishes an extract of a letter to the editors, dated S(.

Francijvilje, in Missouri. Sept. 18, 1839, which runs thtis: 'I am here at Ihe seat of war. Nothingelse is spoken ol but the boundary question. Some of the citizens sav they will have their "rights or blood." The Sheriff of this county, as I was nforrrred, is to start in a elav or two to the dis puted Territory to collect taxes.

The residents having ever before paid to Iow will most prob- ly refuse to pay to Missouri, when rorce will unquestionably be resorted to by the latter. Look out tor warm work. The Lxecutive of Iow as was to leave been expected, is in rather bad odour here. He is called "Headstrong Bob'."

The Great Rob op Saturday. We are saved the trouble of writing a description of the great and exciting contest between Wagner and Grey Eagle on Saturday last. A distinguished correspondent of the N. Y. Spirit of the Times has written a fine anei graphic letter to that pa per, which we are permitted to copy previously to its beinff mailed.

It is as follows: Louisville October 5th. Dear P. He must be hard to please indeed, who has gone olf dissatisfied with the racing of the last week. II the splendid race of was the topic of every crowd, what ought lo be said of yesterday's race, in which the sumptuous," four year old, the game and rinilinching Grey Eagle, finished his brief but brilliant career, af ter making a seconel heat in a style that would have done credit even to Boston himself. Gal- laut colt, you have fallen irr the midst of your honors, yet the tears of some, and the sympathies of all the lovely and accomplished daughters of your own proud State, who witnessed your gallant struggle, were freely given, and such tears anei such sympathy are a rich compensation for any "iU that flesh is heir to." woodpecker won fame for himself, by his vic tories in many a hard fought fieid, but they sink into insignificance beside ihe extraordinaiy performances ol bis iil-fated son, Ralph, too, has lone much for his sire.

The style in which ho has won all his laces this year, makes it a veiy doubtful question, whether or not he is to take the position which accident has snatched from Grey Lngle. Turning Irom Woodpecker lo Me- doc, we find that hile lire former has been gainingjlauiels the latter has riot been idle. Cub won her race in rplcudid style, bo etui Ked Morocco while; Tetamon matle one of the most extraordinary struggles, and, though beaten, proved himself every inch a horse. Ohi Eclipse had but one lair daughter to battle lor her sire. Twice dill she slart twice was she victorious.

Wagner, Ihe very perfection of race horses, the only sorr of the lamented Sir Charles that started, made two flings (or lame. They arc too fresh in tire recollections of all, to require mention here. He met no common foe but one worthy of him a victory over whom was the proudest honor a horse could wirr. Saturday's race brought forth an immense crowd. Old ami young rich and poor grave and gay, in short every body that could spare the time and raise the means, was there.

Dashing equipages, gcnleel bucks, rusty enhs, imitation omnibuses, and even old-fashioned one-horse carts wore all to be seen wending their way midst clouds of dust to tho course, A Keu- tuckiaii will go his death on his great men and hisgreat horses but when he goes his (veelaat. ing, it is on ins beautiful and accomplished women and wiio, that cast his eyes to the ladies' stand on Saturday, was unwilling tn acknowledge the; enrur not. one. tJut lor the race.

Katharine did not seerrr distressed. They went off for the second heat Wagner leading until Ihey got lo the desending ground beyond the gate when Grey Eagle gained on him and look tho track, coming to the stand in 1.5S.

On the first turn Giey Eagle drew out and led to the entrance of, and nearly down the quarter stretch, when Wagner lapped him and they passed tho stand neck mid neck in 1 5'2- Here Calo on Wagner, hud orders to drive him up. Obedient tothein, he dashed the inwels to their very bead; and the noble animal under him responded fo the challenge and the pace was killing-. They inn locked lo the entrance gate, where Grey Eaglo drew out a little, and they swung into the strotch nearly lapped. Wagnei's rider was Hinging the whip into his shoulders and dashing the rowels into his side, yet the game animal never faltered or gave hack for an instant, but struggled on, anil they again pnsscd the. stand lapped in 1.55.

They came into the stretch hipped, Warmer on Ihe inside at it they went. "Gallant Grey now hold thine own" and nobly did lie do it, though Wagner came home a wirrnei by neck and shoulders in Only think of that the heat Katharine distanced. Wagrrer was now ihe favorite ill odds.

When they came lo the post for the thiitl heat, belli looked well, and it was a nice question which hail recovered best. At lire lap, Wagner took the lead and kept it by several lengths, until they were near the entrance of ihe quarter stretch, when Eagle made his brush. They entered on the 4tn mile, Wagner still leading, and, near the enhance gale, he left him rapidly, when it was diseoveicd that the gallant colt had let down. By this melancholy accident, one of the best race horses man ever saw has been lost to the ttnf. The sympathies of every honorable man were up for the colt and his worthy aud spiiiled owners.

He has been cut. oil' 'lis tine, in colt-hood, us a racer, yet, in the breeding stud, there is scarce a doubt but that he wjll win for himself as imperishable fame as he did on Ihe turf. When it was announced that he had let down, tiiere was sorrow tlepictcd iu almost man's countenance, while the ladies, God bless them, shed richer tears than even Cleopatra did, when sho lost Mark Anthony a world. Tinning from the vanquished to the victor, what shall be said of him? If speed and lasting constitute a he is one and after thai, tremendous second heat, to witness his running off with his rider, was a sight as unexpected as it was magnificent.
