mostly on level ground and may be said
to be already grubbed, the stumps being
rotten or gone. The great artery being
thus established. the people Of New Cas-.

Cambridge. It is to be hoped that tho
people on this line will examine into the

For the Palladium.

Messrs. EIitors:-As there is at pres
ent much agitation amongst the people, in
the Legislature and in the newspapers,
concerning the most practical route of
the great central Railroad from East to
West through the Eastern portion of In
diana, feel willing to give the public my
views OF this great subject, before it is To-
ca,ed-a work Of far greater importance
than any similar one that has been or can
be proposed through the great Miss;s.ip-
pi valley-a work that is designed ulti-
reality in all probability, to connect the
Atlantic and Pacific Oceans; therefore, it
is subject that does not only interes. the
people of Indiana, but the people of the
whole country.
The only difference Of opinion. where
to locate it, so far as | learn. exists be-
tween Richmond and Indianapolis
Some are in favor Of a route through Ha-
gers,own, New Catsle, &C., whilst others
favor the route of the National Road; the
latter. in my opinion, is decidedly prefer
able in every point Of view; it is not only
the most direct and shortest route, but i,
passes through the wealihiest and mos,
populous parts Of the intermediate coun.
ties, and running nearly due East and

approve of the taste evinced by him in
selecting his friends and associates. This
much will say, however, that although
! am a Loco-Foco. as you know. yet
would be happy 10 learn that he had been
removed.
The locos Of Oregon do not regard
Gen. Lane as worthy TO be Governor, and
the locos Of Indiana would make him
President Of the United States.

"But we never will forget thee,
The christian virtues which adorned thy life
Shall live i'll our RENE mbrance."
Thou art gone. from us dear mother,
Thy seat is vacant here,
No more wei! greet each other,
No more our hearts thou 1t cheer.
But when the hour Of trial comes
When dark storms Ger US gather
When lain upon weary coach.
We'll miss thy care, dear mother
Aye, long we'll miss iilee, mother,
With thee We of. have met
Where all have bowed together.
Beneath the mercy's seat.
OFT will We shed the tear
OF sorrow on thy tomb,
But on its gloomy margin, there
The flower Of hope will bloom.
The glorious resurrection morn.
New beauties will unfold,
When we shalt see thee clothed upon,
With glory yet untold.
May the same faith and hope be ours
The charity and lore,
That ever marked thy pathway here.
Till called from earth abOre!
Where thou art gone before US,
And when we're called to come.
Oh join the heave eonpoy,
To bring us safely home:
To dwell with thee forever
In heavens pure happy sphere.
Where death no more can sever
The tie that bound US here
