Railroad towards Coshocton.

We have frequently of late, heard gentlemen Of
intelligence suggest the propriety OF extending
forthwith railroad from this city out in the State OF
Ohio in the direction of CoshOctOn or UricksVile.
sneb road could be built at but slight cost, and
would afford most valuable connection with the
RaiIpOads in Northwestern Ohio, Indiana Illinois
and Michigan, and would eHectually tap most of
the roads OF that section of country. We learn
that the citizens of Belmont and other portions of
Ohio talk Of meeting at Union Town, in Belmont
county Mt an early day, for the purpose Of taking
the subject into consideration, and have fixed on
next Saturday week as the period for meeting.
The subject is ell worthy the attention of our
citizens, as the connections likely to be secured by
such road are most important to our eastern
roads, both to the aempfeld and the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. We learn thatthese connections
can be made by the construction of less than sixty
miles OF road, and at the least cost per mile of any
road in this vicinity. We purpose alluding 10
this subject more in detail so soon as we obtain
some data which are not by US at present.

The cALoRrc ENoINE.-Captain Ericsson has
finished beautiful little model of his "caloric
engine" for exhibition at the Crystal Palace. A
caloric engine of sixty horse power, fitted up to
drive the machinery of Messrs. Hogg & Delamater's
Foundry, New York, will be thrown open to public
inspection during the continuance of the Indus
trial exhibition. In relation to the present con-
dition of the caloric ship, the N. Y. Times asys-
RAND progress is made in constructing the new
cylinders fer the ship Ericsson, and VIC learn that
she will be brought round from Williamsburg, to
the foot OF West Thirteenth street earlynext week,
to receive her new machinery. The settlement
made in the papers, some time since, that her en-
eines had been entirely taken out, was quite in
correct, Nothing whatever vas removed but the
cylinders. The ship will also be thrown open to
the public during the early part of the Crystal
Palace Exhibition. The Havre papers state that
the Caloric Engine sent out blythe Humboldt, some
weeks since, had been set 10 work, and that the
French Government had sent down Commission
to examine and report uponit. Captain Ericsson,
we understand, sends out by the steamer Baltic,
on Satmd ny next, working model of the Chlout
Engine for use in the lecture room of the Society
oil Civil Engineers in London.

The Pittsburgh Commercial Journal deplores the
fact that ALE heny county has not, as yet, been
able to boast of any t'big fleece" Of WOOL the pro
duct of that county. We opine our contemporary
will, ere long, be gratifed in having to record
some such prond evidences of the agricultural en-
terprize of his citizens. Or. Geo. S. Hays, late
Prothonotary of Allegheny county, purchased last
fall several of the finest quality of French Merl@o
Sheep, from which It's his intention to breed ex,
tensively. There sheep cost the Doctor about
eleuen hundred doIl1rs--and they will compare ia
vorably with anyin the country. The Doctor has
arranged the programme for growing wool and
breeding sheen upon an extensive scale, and we
have not doubt, viii accomplish something hand
some in that -afonling the Journala fit occa-
sion for Boosting of the skill and enterprze of at
least one Allegheny county farmer, DR.. Hays ha-
wing taken the initiative, he will soon he followed
by others, and before many years, no doubt our
brother of the Journalwi be putting US to our
tIumps'' to keep up with him in the way OF boast
ing over big feeces-fne wool and large sheep!
There is no conceivable reason why Allegheny
county should not grow as fine wool and boast as
heavy fieeces as Washington county. Her soil is
as well adapted to raising sheep, and her farmers
have the means and access to the same flocks from
which to stock their FARMS thatwe have, and 1t is
only because they have found other agricultural
pursuits more profitable, that they lave not long
since entered the field Of competition with onl
famers in Wool growing and sheep raising.

BOLD RoBBERY.-A German, lastweek, went
into the Ohio Life Insurance and Trust Company
Bank, and presented check for the sum of $3.50;
the check was cashed, and the man proceeded TO
his residence on Vine street, above Canal. "A
short time after he had entered his house, he heard
a KIN ok at the door, and opening it, he sow well
dressed young man standing on the threshhold,
who told him that there had been mistake made
in the payment of the money, and that it was me-
cessa1y for him 10 return to the bank in order that
it might be corrected. The German, suspeoting
nothing, placed the money in his hat, and in COM
pany with the stranger started towards the bank.
When they reached the corner of Seventh street
and Lodge alley, the stranger suddenly snatched
the hat from the Germans head, and grabbing
from it the money, ran off down the alley, and
although closely pursued, succeeded in making
his escape. The mar. who was robbed immediate
ly proceeded to the watch house and gave m;-
mute description of the robber, busdil not succeed
ingeLting him arrested. This is one ofthe bodies;
and most iugeniously devised highway robberies
which has ever occurred in that city.

We have been frequently requested TO call the
attention OF our citizens. and particularly of the
City Council, to the deficient measure in many of
the coal carts in The city, as the general complaint
is that far less quantity than 25 bushels is con-
tanned in The loads generally delivered full mea
sure. We have heard it said that the carts often
contain not more than 10 OF 20 bushels, thus ma
king loss of twenty-five per cent. TO the pur-
chaser The coal sellers are. doubtless, not aware
of this fact or they would arrest it. But matter
of so much Importance 10 the city, and to the poor
er classes particularly, should not be left open,
but fixed 50 that no mistake could possibly arise.
In most cities, we learn that coal is delivered by
weight instead of measure, and that every load
must pass weight before the yender can legally
collect the price of il: Certainly if the evil exists
1othe extent complained of or to any extent, it
can and should be promptly remedied. We hope
that the proper authorities will promptly correct
this evil, as prompt correction is best both the
buyer and seller, as fuel is very heavy item IN
the expenses of the poor lnborer.

BALTIMORE AND ONO RAILRoAD.-1'he Coke En-
periments.-The experiments with coke, as a fuel,
for the passenger engines CT the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, continues highly successful. The
CUMBERLAND Miners Journal says:-
ga few nights since, The ira nfor Baltimore was
run Though from this place with no other fuel,
and notwithstanding detentions by burthen trains,
amounting in the aggregate to nearly an hour, yet
the time required by the schedule was easily made.
The was not only an abundance of steam, but
almost more than the engineer could manage. In
fact il is now demonstrated that Coke is not only
far superior to wood as fuel for locomotives, but
that il can be used at one half the cost. Such, we
understand, is the conclusion at whichthe Rail
Road Company have arrived, and accordingly have
ordered the employment of coke on all their pas
senger locomotives soon as the necessary aitera-
tons in the grate, bars, &C., can be efe cied. In
the meantime, coke has leen sent to mary ofthe
Northern Railroads from his region, with view
of its introduction in thntfuaTter.
at is evident tina: great revolution is about to
take place in the fuel for the propulsion of loco
motives. Coke made from The coal of the Cum
herland region will in short time be substituted
for wood on oil the rail roads in The Atlantic States
that can obtain the requisite supplies. This we
consider matter that no longer admits oil a
doubt.
awe would here remark that the experiments
with coke on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad have
been made under the direction of fho'naS WInanS,
Esq.,, one of the Directors Of the Company, and
that TO his intelligence and energy is IL great

Mosav1roEs.-our community have cause to
congratulate themselves upon the tardin.ss mani
tested by these bill presenting insects this summer
Usually they appea. in June, but it is now the
middle of July, and they have not opened unon
US. In New Orleans, however, they are doing
thriving business, black spirits and white.'
This is the way they talk in Nashville of their
escape thus far from the ''btll stickers." But few
have made their appearance here as yet, but by
way of enabling our readers to anticipate the pleas
ures in store for them, we copy the following from
the New Orleans Delta:
We have never known the mosquitoes to be
half sosevere as they ore of present. Besides our
ordinary Creole mosquito, quite recently black
intruder and interloper has been busying himself
with our cutlcular coverings, whom we take occa-
sion to denounce as no less impairment than bar
barous. He is siugularly savage and san 'uinaty
in his nature, and instead of asking our leave, as
your polite cole mosquito does, he al once es-
tabl hes himself on any exposed portion oft e hui
man carcass, and proceeds with the utmost sang
froid, TO glut his stomach and safe his thirst for
blood.
