SOur Brush Valley neighbors frcel

S~Our Brush Valley neighbors freely
express their feelings again this week.
The proceedings Of both meetings speak of
a survey from Le,ctsJu,y through Brush
Valley, but we are told the new survey
has started from Milton. Is this another
enterprise? or is there a deception?
The interest-even the contest for
this route, argue well for its Importance.
Under its charter, Lewisburg is the start
ing point, and will not be altered; but
whether through Penns Or Brush Valley,
and whether to terminate at the mouth Of
Spruce Creek, Tyrone City, or Holidays
burg, are the points for which various in-
tercsts are arrayed. We are informed the
excitement on the Juniata is far greater
than in Center or Union-that one rich
master offers S60, 900 subscription on
condition Spruce Creek be the termination,
while another offers Sl50,000 on condition
Tyrone City be the terminus.

Railroad Meeting.

/ Pursuant to public notice, large num-
Der of the citizens of Centre county met
on the 30th day Of March, at the Public
House of Michael Roush, in Rsbersburg.
The meeting was organized by appointing
THOMAS WOLF, Chairman; Geo. Shafer,
J, Rule, Sam'l Winters, J. Smull, Col II.
Roger, Joseph Z. Shively, F. Esterline,
D. Kremer, j. Granny, r. Granny, Vice
Presidents; Sam'l Strohecker, Geo. Gross,
Secretaries.
After which, on motion of S. Strohcck-
er, John Shivcly was called upon to address
the meeting. After a very able and spir-
tied address on the practicability Of the
Brush Valley Railroad route, from Lewis
burg to Tyrone City, the following named
persons were appointed a committee to draft
resolutions expressive Of the sense of the
meeting: Sam'l Strohecker, j. Hosterman,
Geo. Bear, Geo. Gross, Dan'l Dubs, j.
Stover, II. Meyer, D. sholl, j. Shively, J.
Weber, S. Mingle, Geo. Bearly, G. Roger,
who, after a short absence, reported the
following:
Resolved, That We are more and more
convinced of the righteousness of our
cause, and the unfair measures that have
been resorted in order to direct public at
tention from the Brush Valley route and,
in order that truth may triumph and de-
ception and fraud may hide their dcformed
heads,
Resolved, That We exert ourselves in
every laudablc attempt to ascertain the
true state of the case, aud whether it is or
is not practicable to overcome the summit
Of Rapid Run by a comparatively easy
grade.
Resolved, That this meeting adjourn to
meet again in Rebersburg on Saturday, the
222d day Of April, when we will be able to
have full report of our survey to lay be-
fore the meeting.
Resolved, That the proceedings Of this
meeting be published in the Lewisburg
Chronicle, Logansvillc Democrat, and Cen
tire BcGiehter. Adjourned.

Union County-her relative Position
in the State.

In another column We give the assessed
valuation Of the State, as regulated by the
Board of Revenue Commissioners at their
recent session.
The aggregate increase is about Thirty
Seven Millions of Dollars-over Twelve
Millions year.
Sehuylkill, Lancaster and Chester have
increased far faster than Berks.
rea- Union county ranks tcentieM in the
State-there being nineteen rated higher,
and ToRTY-FoUR less than Union.
Of our neighboring counties, the Coal
and Railroad interests of Sunbury, Sha-
mokin and Trevorton have given very
rapid gain to Northumberland and Dau-
phin Juniata and Mifflin, with existing
Railroad facilities, show handsome and
steady progress; Center county, isolated
as she is, shows positive decrease, (but
will tell different story when the Spruce
Creek Railroad gets through J Lycoming
with her Lumber and prospective improve
ments has gained over half million
Columbia and hIontour remain stationary;
and Union has gained sl90,G77, (not half
what it would have been had not our own
Railway been embarrassed by our own
citizens.)
Were Union county divided, each new
county would be superior to tuewy-eight
other counties in wealth, and nearly equal
to ten more. In 4 word, Union and Snyder
would be equal to if not ADORE the averayc
Of the counties in taxable property.
The following table will show the rela-
tive wealth of Union and adjacent counties
Of nearly the same size: according to the
