The miners' express. (Dubuque, Iowa) 1849-1854, 1849-12-19

In this little community, as in all others, there
are those who suffer for want of the mcrest nc
cessaries of lifc-for food, clothing and shelter.
1t is true that public sympathy has enlisted itself
in behalf of such as can conveniently be accom-
modated in the poor-house, but there are many
whose situation prevents them from availing
themselves of this relief. Whole families are
known to be in distress and are dependent upon
the efforts of a few benevolent ladies' for their
sustenancc. Shall this be so? Ought not a
more extensive union of efforts be made to sup
ply the wants-to relieve the necessity of our
common humanity?
If no more extensive organization should be
adopted, and it is almost too late now to adopt
any other, AN opportunity is offered, through the
several LADIES SEWING SOCIETIES . to MI
who feel able and willing to feed the hungry
and clothe the naked. An appeal from one of
these societies will be found in to-day's paper,
to which we call the attention Of all charitably
disposed persons.

years has she pnt on the appearance Of perma-

years has she pnt on the appearance Of perma-
nent prosperity and rapid growth.
She has now many things to contend with,
and many obstacles to overcome in her onward
progress, which call loudly for enterprise and
energy on the part of her citizens. But that en-
terprise and energy, with the assistance of the
natural advantages she possesses will overcome
them. Her Harbor will soon be made what the
business of the town demands; and railroads
will speedily open to her their magis commune
cation with Eastern Cities, and bring to her the
exhaustless productions of western plains.
Dubuque is already the largest town of the
State, and her peculiar location upon the Upper
Mississippi, her salubrious climate, and above
all, the wealth and resources of the surrounding
country, hold out to her the promise that she
will ever continue in advance of her sister Cities
of Iowa.

More Rail Roads,

An effort is being made by the citizens of
Carroll county, ILL.,, to connect the town of Sa-
vannah, in that county, to Freeport, in Stephen
son county. Freeport is on the line of the Chi
cago and Galena Rail Road, and Savannah is
opposite the town of Sabula, in Jackson county,
Iowa Here are four projected lines of Rail-
ways, all endeavoring to reach the Mississippi
River, and extend their iron belts over into To-
wa. We will name these different lines, so as
to present them all in one view, and thereby
give distinct idea of their location.
First in order, and first in Importance, is the
called. This road connects the cities of Chica-
60 and Galena-Lake Michigan to the Mssis-
sippi. 1t must reach Dubuque ultimately, and
will proceed thence through the interior of To-
wa to the Missouri. We shall not attempt it's
westward track further than the last named
point at present, but turn back upon the NIL
,cauiee and Potosi Rail Road. This road, like
the other, is designed to connect Lake Michi-
gan to the Mississippi, but at other points. Its
ultimate course will lead it to Dubuque, where
it will unite with the Chicago road westward
The third projected route is that from Rock ISL
and, Opposite Davenport, Iowa,) to Elgin.-
This is but branch of the main trunk from
Chicago to Galcna, but will be not the less i'm
portant to those whose interests it is intended to
subservc The eastern center of Iowa will be
materially affected for the better by this latter
branch. Should it be constructed, las it surely
will bc,) it will extend itself westward to Fort
Des Moines, and thence unite with the main
trunk from Chicago. The fourth route is like
wise branch of the Chicago and Galena road,
and may cross the Mississippi at Sabula. We
would recommend all who feel an interest in
these matters, to procure map of the States of
Wisconsin, Illinois, and Iowa, and trace upon
them these road as they may be projected. A
few hours, or days, spent in this way, will pro-
mote the projection and accomplishment of the
roads, by being convinced ofthcir utility, profit,
and feasibility.

Rail Road il, sin.

The people of Wisconsin are not only awal-
ening to the Importance of Rail Roads, but are
manifcstng a determination speedily to avail
themselves of the advantages springing from
this mode oftravel and transportation. The farm
or and the mechanic. the merchant and the cap
italist, have long seen the reward of their skill
and industry curtailed, or entirely lost, for want
of an easy and speedy communication with east
ern marts; and they have resolved to submit to
these inconvenience no longer.
While the cntcrprising and wealthy City of
Milwaukee is putting forth her utmost cxcrtions
across the entire State, to the Mississippi River,
thus drawing to herself the rich products of the
Agrcuturist and the Miner; her equally enter
prising, and somewhat jealous neighbor, Chca-
go, is reaching for the same products by means
of a branch from her road to Bcloit, thence to
GAINESVILLE, and on to Madison, the capital of the
State.
A meeting was held in Madison, on the 6th
instant, to take action in the matter of this cx-
tcnsion-not such a meeting is usually held
in Dubuque upon such subjects, where nothing
is done but to make speeches and pass rcsolu-
tons, and appoint a Committee Of .fre--but one
that resulted in ACTION, and such action as alone
can make Rail Road
The Madison Express says:
cit is expected that this road will be compile
ted to Beloit during the coming year; at which
time it is the intention of the company to have
the Madison and Beloit Road intersect it, and
extend up as far as GAINESVILLE. This will open
communication into the heart Of the richest a.
grlcultural country in the world, and will render
this road one of immense profit to it's stockhold-
ers, and of vast convenience to the inhabitants
of the country through which it passes. To our
mind there is no question but an extension of
this road to Madison is good policy; neither is
there any question but it will be made, and that
before long. The whole meeting seemed unan-
nous and enthusiastic in favor of the project,
and the only question was as to the conditions
upon which stock should be taken. The meet
ing finally decided to open books and receive
subscriptions, live per cent, to be paid into the
general fund OF the company, to detray expenses
of surveying, &c; the balance to be paid on
consideration that the work shall commence at
Madison, and extend towards GAINESVILLE as far
as the money subscribed in this county will con-
struct the road 1t was contended that this con-
ditlon would insure an earlier completion of the
road to this place, and also insure much great
er amount of stock to be taken in this county"
If Dubuque intends to have Rail Road COM
munication with the East, she must adopt the
same course. She must yield her mastery in
activity, and ''open her books," and invest her
means, as the citizens of other towns are doing.
She must interest herself in the improvements
now being extended towards her, and to which
she should principally look, as the source of her
prosperity, and from which she is, in part to de-
western borders of our State
