the Know Nothing societies. or any other
secret political association he disclaimed all
hostility TO foreigners, and in proof Of the
assertion, read from former speech Of his
showing he had no unkind feeling against
them; but he did think emigration was dan,
rerous, inasmuch as foreigners took sides
with the aboli.ionists. When he heard
that band Of Germans had burned an A.
merican Senator in efligy, he came to the
determination to introduce this bill. So
far as he understood the principles Of the

Hooking valley Railroad.

This road, accordingto the report Of Mr..
LATRopE, will be seventy miles in length,
mainly following the Hooking Valley and
traversinga region offering heavy To-
cal trade. The grades and curves are
slight-no grade exceeding fifty-threc feet
to the mile and no curve upon ra,lius of
less Than 1893 feet--out of the 10 miles,
Al are upon alevel and Al upon as,raight
line. At Logan, this route intersects that
of the Scio!o and Hooking Valley Railroad,
and, at Athens, that of the Marietta and
Cincinnati Railroad-two most important
connections. The cost of the road is esti-
mated at $66a, ,3la; its gross annual reve-
nue., 1907 ,350; total current expenses,
&13o,711; nett income, SIG, $50; inter
est on capital, Sl2G,G49; surplus profits,
$47,790.
Mr.. LArRoDE recommends the undertak-
ing and completion of this road in two sep
arate sections, viz: from Lancaster to
Athens and from Athens to the Ohio River
either of which would prove remunera-
tive to its constructors. He urges the par
ties respectively interested in these sec
tons, topush ahead and not wait for each
other Accompanying the report is a
large map and profile, clearly exhibiting
the courses, distances and other features
of the route-upon which, by the way,
there lis but one single tunnel! These SUR
veys were made under the Immediate di-
rection and supctintendence Of Samuel
Linton, Esq, first Assistant Engineer, to
whomthe Chief pays meiited tribute for
the skill and ability with which he has
performed the duties entrusted to him.--
We trust that Pres't Borland will press for
ward this important enterprise, not relax
ing in zeal and energy until shall be com
! pleted. .t t.-.

soldiers had taken care of the dead bodies &
of what little property was left. No es-
cort could be granted them at the Post,
