that re should be doing sonleing Ia the seGg Of organ
ication. Union is Strength; without nuion we have
! no hope that the principles which we believe to be
right, will ever triumph. Our opponents are al
ready marshaling their forces; and while energy
and activity characterize all their movements why
should Incidence and supineness be found alone in
the Whig ranks? Think Of these things therefore,

In view thereof, the Central Committee request

Removal of the Deposits.

The house of Mr.. Morecraf, of Groton, Erie
county, was entered on Sunday last while the
family were absent at meeting, and 5000 in
specie stolen therefrom. Two persons suppos,
ed to have been engaged in the transaction
have been arrested. The ringleader, however
is minus carrying the funds with him. Every
person that has money about their premises
should have an eye on it, or some of these
light-fngered gentry will be for appropriating
it for their own benefit. We have heard o.
five or six burglaries within the last few eeks
in our immediate vicinity.

The Railroad Meeting.

On Monday evening 18th Aug, the people
of this town and the adjacent neighborhoods
met at the Court House for the purpose of
talking over the subject of railroads, but more
particularly, the propriety of taking measures
for securing the laying down of the junction
Railroad through this place. There was but
one feeling on this point; and that was, the
road must be built through the town of FIRE.
mont if possible, and we must spare no efforts
TO secure its location thereto. 1t would be a
matter Of surprise truly, if the citizens of this
county, much more of the town to offer any
opposition to such an obvious improvement
There was some little difference of opinion
as to the manner of raising the amount Of
money necessary to be subscribed to the cap
ital stock of the company; but this was soon
arranged and by Tuesday evening, the sum of
$4,000 was guaranteed to the capital stock of
the company, provided, they located the road
through the town of Fremont
This road is of most vital importance to
Fremont; and our citizens should spare no
pains-hesitate not at any expense, to secure
the location of it here. 1t is to be, emphatic
ally. the great railroad-the connecting link
which will unite Boston and New York with
the Mississippi 1t will be, as soon as finish
ed, the great thoroughfare from the Missis-
sippi to the Atlantic Ocean.
As town, we are most deeply interested.
Other towns are awake to this subject, and
they understand perfectly, that they must help
along public improvements, or public improve
ments will help themselves along. and they
must inevitably be left behind on the great
road to wealth and prosperity. This viii be
the certain result--for public improvements
aOW be made and somebody must be benefit
ed, and how shall we expect TO be cured un-
less we step in when the waters are troubled :
There is too much sel6shness among our sis
ter towns, for US to expect that they will work
for our benefit; and it is high time that we
found out that, if we wish to be one among
the towns we must aOork for ourselves.
Let there be no one among us then, who
viii sit still and do nothing, and hinder others
from doing, for to the worker only, is the re-
ward promised; and the individual or the
community, who does not work for its own in,
terest, and look out for No. l, may rest assur-
ed that no one else will.
