THE AIR LINE KATXEOAD.-We learn that the Air Line Railroad Oompany will, at an early day, hold a mooting at Atlanta, Ga., for the ?turpose of taking the initiatory steps or the commencement of this work. This will shorten the distance be? tween Charlotte, N. C., and Atlanta 214 miles. Mr. Buford, the enter? prising <rad energetio President of the Richmond and Danville Railroad, is the President of that road also. He has gone to work manfully and obtained tho necessary charters and the most liberal franchises from the Legislatures of Georgia, South Ca? rolina and North Carolina. Georgia has loaned the oompany $1,200 per mile for every mile the road passes through that State, and the Legisla? tures of all three States have granted the privilege, to the company of holding lands and other property ad infinitum.. It is worth while remarking the exceeding good order that has been maintained throughout Spain during the whole period of the revolution, and while the country bas been with? out a regularly constituted and estab? lished Government. It is over a fortnight since the Queen decamped, and her capital fell into the hands of the insurgents. Daring that period, order and quiet appear to have pre? vailed at Madrid, and in all the great cities and in all the provinces of Spain. The Prussian troops are learning to execute a new manouvre. A bat? talion throws itself on the ground and two other battalions march over them at quick march to the front. The movement was lately executed for the benefit of the Crown Prince of Prussia, who was inspect? ing the troops at Settin. Two Eng? lish officers in his suite also witness? ed it. A terrible tragedy was enacted at Aspinwall previous to the sailing of . tho steamship Ocean Quean, which reached New York on Tuesday. On the morning of September 24, Mr. James Baldwin, assistant engineer of the Panama Railroad, shot Mr. Wm. Parker, superintendent of the road, dead, and subsequently committed suicide himself. At a recent election in Prague, a speaker, in proposing tho candidate of the Bohemian Central Committee, concluded as follows: "Now, every one of yoo take a ballot and a shilling. Those who are in favor of B, will put their ballots in the box; those who are opposed, will put in the shilling. Result- Unanimous election of B. WANTED. A GOOD HOUSE-KEEKER: also a good J\. COOK.
