fare Of Fan amount oftravel and trade almost
lncalculshle, is beginning 70 attract the at
teniion OF all far.soeiog men-and we have
no doubt, IL the measure now proposed, and
whicheas we confidently believe, involves
notthe slightest risk, should receive the co.
operation of all the citizens along the Valley,
It will be The sure means Of bringing out the
latent resources of the finest mineral region
in the State and secure the prosperity Of
every town and county along the line. IL
is scarcely worth while to speak Of the
grandeur Of the enterprise & as little ncces-
sary to attempt to show that the Investment

the general prosperity or the region through
which it passes will BE- great beyond our
power of estimation. 1.-THE people ofFair-

this great enterprise, its success is snre--
Hooking county is wide awake on the sub
ject and is determined to CONS forward and
assist in pushing the work to completion.
The "Sentinsr' says she will subscribe as
much as any county along the line, in pro-
portion to wealth. "oGd FAirfalf' knows

gallant as she Is, the old coupty accepts
the challenge,--has already gone into the
contest, and fred the first gun, as viii be
seen by our columns. a. g~lociop. rivalry

Viewit5 vast importancein the facilities
to market and in tho enlargiug our trade and
resources, AMI you cannot help but come
forward and subscribe an amount sufficient
to construct the rad 80 far on the way that
other counties, with our exertions can speed
lily forward it along.
We have heard the argument, witnessed
the splendid elocution5 the finely rounded
periods in support Of this road, and now we
want MONEY. We waataction, action;not
that of the ancient Orator, but action in
raising the funds. People of old Fairfield!
we invoke your immediate action and aid in
this important improvement, and you will
find our neighbors at both enls oflhe Val
ley seconding your exertious,
The advantages of this road can be seen
BY all those who have m ade themselves the
least acquainted with the results OF rail-
ways. Its always calculated that the trav-
ell on a railroad will double, Blu. in many
cases it increases ten-fold. We know of
short routes in New York, Pennsylvania
and Ohio that now take an average Of Is to
100 each per day, on which formerly a coach
once a day and some times every two days
suficed. But tho truth is that no data OF
stage travel can furnish any basis.of an es-
timate. The nature ofthe country, its pop
%ulation, wealth, &C., &c, tskenin consllera-
Etion with the statistics Of travel on other
railroads, mast form the chief elemsnts.-
The region in the Hooking Valley is one o
the most attractive in the world. With this
railroad, it would be r~esortel to cyery sum.
