Very sorry that I took so long to reply - had to leave early yesterday...
I don't know why there is no traffic on eth1 - I think that is the 
fundamental question here. I will say that I only recently activated the 
nic to create a test network. The eth1 nic was present when I installed 
the os  - I just never activated it.
I did remove the bad route as requested. As I said earlier I added it just 
to see if I could force eth1 to talk to eth0. I added it on the eth1 
interface via the gui and then removed it via the gui but it stayed in the 
routing table leading me to claim that it may be a bug. The only way to 
remove it was with route del. I'm digressing - the route is gone and as I 
said earlier the firewall is empty. It's an internal machine that I'm not 
too worried about.

As you can see I still cannot ping from eth1 to eth0.
Please let me know if you need more info and thanks again to everyone!!

Why isn't there any traffic on eth1? No you don't need a route for the NIC
installed in the system.
Remove that bad route and post your firewall settings.
