THE RAIL ROAD MEETING.

We are indebted to the prompt attention OF the
President of our road for an official report of the
proceedi gsat the Railroad meeting held ut Briggs
Store on Tuesday last. The meeting was not very
largely attended, but sufficient numbers were
present. both from York and Cleaveand, to dis
cuss and adopt the necessary preliminary meas
ures and to put the ball in motion" The next
effort, which we earnestly hope will be n strong
and enthusiastic one, will be made at Shelby, on
the second Monday of November.
The determined and well-directed exertion OF
nil parties interested-"a long pull strong pull,
and pull all together''-is oil that is necessary
to the accomplishment of this important enter
prise. The people Of York are wide-awake, and
fully appreciate their interest in the undertaking;
they have secured charter, and made the first
increment and i. now devolves upon our friends
in Ceaveland and the adjoining counties, who are
really more interested than we are, to set to work
and lend us hearty cooperation.
We would suggest that put &c meeting of our
citizens be held at an early day, and large dele
CATION appointed to attend the Shelby Convention.
