- The following communications will give
our citizens some insight into the feelings Of
the people Of Milwaukee and Racine, upon the
subject of railroad from Like Michigan to thu
Mississippi. The object with the people Of
these two Furnishing cities, is, no doubt, to con.
meet with this point, believing it to be the best
point for Western terminus on the Upper
Mississippi. This project carried forward, and
Dubuque will possess more railroad advantages
than any other town in the West. II will have
the advantage Of two railroads running to the
same great commercial mart, while the james.
vile road will give our people the choice Of
going to Chicago, Milwaukee, or Racine
With two roads, there would necessarily be a
healthy competition created, with an ever abb
ding assurance, that every thing that the coun-
try could produce, or require, would not be de-
layed in its transit.
This is certainly golden opportunity for our
people 70 embrace, and we trust they will not
allow it to pass unimproved.

A PATHETIC BALLAD.
BY MR.. X. K, BLlrE'Ns-
In Manchester maiden dwelt,
Her name was Phoebe Brown,
Her cheek was red, her hair was black,
And she was considered by good judges
70 be by all odds the best looking girl IN town
Her age was nearly seventeen,
Her eyes wers sparkling bright
A very lovely girl she was,
And for about year and hall there haa
been young man paying attention 10 het "S
the name of Reuben Wright
Now Reuben was nice young man
As any in the town,
And Phoebe loved him very dear,
But. on his account OF being obliged TO
7vork for a living he never could make himself
agreeable to Mr. and Mrs Brown
Her cruel parents were resolved
Another she should wed,
A rich old miser in the place,
And old Brown frequently declared that
sooner than have his daughter marry Reuben
Wright he'd sooner knock him on the head,
But Phgbe's heart was brave and strong,
She feared not parents frowns,
And as for Reuben Wright bold
I've heard him say more than fifty times
that with the exception of Phosbe) he didn't
care a d for the whole race OF Browns.
So Phoebe Brown and Reuben Wright
Determined they would marry,
Three weeks ago last Tuesday night
They started for old Parson Wheeler's,
determined to be united in the holy bond of ma
trimony, though it was tremendous dark and
rained like old Harry.
But Captain Brown was wide awake;
He loaded up his gun,
And then pursued the loving pair,
He overlook them when they'd got about
half way 10 the Parsons, and then PhEbe and
Reuben started off upon the run.
Old Brown then took deadly aim
Towards young Reubens head
But oh it was bleeding shame,
lie made a mistake and shot his only
daughter, and had the unsPeakable anguish OF
seeing her drop down stone dead.
The anguish filled young Reuben's heart
And vengeance crazed his brain,
He drew awful jack knife out
And plunged it into Old Brown about fifty
sixty times; that 1t is very doubtful about
his ever coming 20 again.
The briny drops from Reuben's eyes
In torrents pour'd down,
He yielded up the ghost and died,
And in this melancholy and heart-rend-
ing manner terminated the history OF Reuben
and Phoebe, and likewise old Captain Brown.
