One mile and three-quarters OF the Ma

planked. and Nj Templin Informs us that
more would have been finished, had the saw
mills been able to furnish plank. Next spring
the work viii proceed rapidly, we hope.
The citizens of Georgetown Floyd coun-

that they would raise $4,000 for the con-
strpction Of a road from that place to New
Albany.
Six miles of the Lafayette and Crawfords-
vile plank road are finished, and is still pro-
crossing. The whole will be completed by
next fall.
The trustees of the Mount Vernon and
New Harmony Plank Road Company have
expressed determination, in a series of reso-
lutions, to place a portion of the work imme-
diately under contract, and push the whole
line to speedy completion.

fire yesterday morning escaping in the shape
of several vigorous yells of Fire" and much

Neptune Engine House. No damage done
except to the shavings. There was another
little affair of the kind on Main street, Tues

The WHARF.-THE. Ross expected to have
had the finishing work done on the wharf yes
terday-and we suppose it was done. The
wharf is now handsomely graded and gravel
ed, and presents an appearance very hard to
beat. Business can now be transacted with
some degree of comfort for there is plenty of
room although the wharf will continue very
disagreeable at times of rainy weather till
well beaten down. There will soon be de-
mand for all its accommodations so far as room
is concerned. Mr.. Ross, the contractor, de-
serves much credit for the manner in which he
has carried out the work of cutting down and
grading the wharf
