It is expected that the competing route will make still another reduction, to he followed by a farther reduction by the Jackson route. The fight between the two lines promises to he a warm one. It mny appear surprising that, in re gard to the oost of transportation, Rome, Go., is almost os near Birming ham, England, as Cincinnati, O. When we add that the article transported was pig iron, the surprise increases. Yet the Birmingham post notes tho arrival of an experimental consignment of Ala bama and Georgia pig, which sold at $35 not per ton, leaving a Bmall margin, and Bays its transportation cost only 31 more por ton than to take the same iron from the furnaces to Cincinnati. The Cornwall iron company of Cedar Bluff, in Cherokee county, Ala., are now pre paring to ship a hundred tons of thei charcoal iron to tho English market.

When the Kylo was out loose the eddy drifted her up stream, and those on shore seeing the danger, cast off the hawsers by which the Exporter and Bodman wore tied up. This not proved disastrous.

The people on hoard tho Exporter hav ing no other refuge, jumped on the Bod man.
