Plank Roads.

TThe following communication should
have appeared sooner, but could not on &C
count of there being no paper published last
week. 1t contains many valuable sugges-
tons, and we hope our friend will let US hear
from him often. -
Mt. PLEASANT, o., Dec. &c, 1851.
MEssRs. EDrros: In looking over the pa
pers printed in your town, 1 noticed a Plank
Road Meeting on hands amongst the good
citizens of Cadiz. l was much pleased tc
End they had taken hold of that subject; and
I eame to the conclusion it would not be
amiss to let your citizens hear what we are
doing on the Plank Road subject.
In the first place would stste we gothic
Plank Road fever up in this place last win
ter, and the people of Martinsville and Mt
Pleasant procured a Charter at the last SEES
sion of the Legislature, to make a PLANK
Road from M~artinsville by the way OF Mt.
Pleasant to Cadiz. The road is being gra-
ded, and will be ready for the plank by the
inst day of April. One raft of plank has
been for some weeks past ready on the ground
containing between one and two hundred
thousand feet; also a steam saw mill has
been put up expressly for the company or
Short Greek, and has been in operation fol
three months past. The stock has all beer
taken, and we hope to see it all completed by
the LIST of July to Mt, Pleasant, a distance o
nine miles.
The attention now at this time, and fol
some weeks past Of our directors have beer
engaged to get stock sufficient to put the
road under contract to Cadiz, and they have
succeeded in a few weeks in raising $18, 500
between this place and Warfel's Mill, anC
they have but little doubt but that the a
mount of stock will soon be raised s~uficien
to complete the charter through to Cadiz.
hope the citizens of Cadiz will feel themselve!
interested in this road, as it cannot fail to b.
of great utility to them, as it will pass thro
one of the most fertile sections of country
that is to be found in the eastern part of tn,
State of Ohio. 1t is a well known fact tina
Short Creek cannot be surpassed in respec
to her Touring mills.
We have also heard that false impression
are tried to be palmed off on your citizens
in respect to this road. ! would just sa.
that the company and directors have neve
had any other point in view but as the char
ter calls for. The road is located and ha
been for some months past, from the mout
of the middle fork of Short Creek to Cadiz
by Warfel'S Mill, and any person making
assertions to the contrary to the citizens o
Cadiz or vicinity, you may rest assured, al
not based on truth, but must have some sin
lister motives in view.
Now in conclusion, l would say the Plan.
Road is the farmers road to all intents an,
purposes. He can go on and off of it at Wi
and pleasure with his own conveyance, an,
the stock | have no doubt but will nett 2
per cent. at least. Much more might be sal,
, on this subject, but let this suffice.
