TELEGRAPH.-It seems that operations have already
commenced at Terre Hnute, the ST. Louis and
Cincinnati line, which spoke of few days ago.
The Express of the 18th says
Holes are already dug in this place and proceed
ing eastwardy, for the poles of line of Telegraph
from Cincinnati to ST. Louis, passing through. in this
State, the towns of Brookville, Connersvle, Rush.
vile, Shelbyville, indianapolis, Danvle, Greencas-
tie. &c. We understand fixtures to the amount of
so tons of wire &c., have been ordered from Louis
vile this place. and will likely be here by the first
rise in the Wabash.
The first pole will be erected at tile corner of Wa
bash and Marke, streets. from which we presume q
room in Mr.. Farrington's block will be secured
for The Telegraph Olfce-a very central and convent
ent place. 1t is also expected that will be in con-
neclion with Indianapolis in. perhaps, ninety days.
This line is being made by Morses company.
We have no doubt that that this line will be good
one and very profitable, both to stockholders and the
public.-a great advantage being in its dirsctnsss.
And we hope that our citizens will not be backward
in helping it along.

PAPER MILL BuRSED.-We learn by private tel
egraphic despatch. that Rinehart g. Robinson's
paper mill at Delphi, entirely consumed BY FIRE
on Sunday night last. We infer that all the paper
materials. and stock on hand, are destroyed The
books were saved. The total loss is estimated at
s. 900, one half Of which only is covered by insrr
ance. We sincerely sympatbise with these gentle
men in their misfortune. Mr. Robinson, as is known
to most of our citizens, is young man who by indus
try and economy succeeded in saving enough to build
and furnish this mill, which had bot recently been put
in successful operation. We hope they may be able
10 rebuild.
