Chicago, Iowa, aud Nebraska Railroad.
The schooner Nicaragua has reached
Chicago with a cargo Of 400 tons Of rails
for the above road. We learn that 1t
will 90 forward Immediately to Clinton,
and the work of track-laying will COM
mence at once beyond De Witt. This
cargo is the first instalmcnt of 1000 tons
for the above road, the remainder Of
which is now in transit between New
York and this city. It is sufficient to
lay down twenty miles Of the track,
which, with the portion already COM
pleted, win make forty miles, and viii
carry the road into the beautiful valley
Of the Yankee Run, tributary of the
Cedar river. The grading for that dis
lance is nearly completed, and the ties
will all be on hand within day or two,
so that we may reasonably expect the
twenty miles west of De Witt to be COM
pleted within the next sixty days.
This road is progressing finely through
out its length, and the portion already
completed is doing an Unexpectedly large
business. Two trains are run daily, each
way, between Clinton and De Witt. A
large number Of passengers for the inte-
rior of Iowa are carried over the road,
and freight to and from all the towns
within easy distance Of De Witt now
take this route. We noticed goods for
Maquoketa passing over it, and -four
from the Maquoketa mills landing from
the cars at Clinton. When the addi-
tional twenty miles of this road shall have
been completed, it will show an extent of
business that will astonish every one

hope that peace and industry viii return
to our people. Many Of them have been
compelled for months to nightly watch
their horses, to keep them from being

the gang, and broken up the business,

The regulators are moving everywhere
We learn that the cxpositions Of the gang
IN Cedar have led to an uprising of the
people in Jones. A Committee of SC.
veral hundreds assembled above Rome
IN Jones County, and arrested two men
who confessed to many things, but pro-
missed to reform, and were pardoned, o,
rather excused from suspension. The
mob then went to Rome, to wait upon 3
merchant and landlord, to effect a re-
form in their future actions. We have
not learned the particulars. It would
appear that the regulators arc determined
to carry their doings into every Count,
in the State, until tho whole gang arc

ALBANY, July U.
The Hon. W. L. Marcy died at Ball
ston Springs at noon yesterday. He
complained Of slight stitch in his side,
which had troubled him for some time,
and then walked about a quarter of q
mile to DIR. Moore's, but, not finding the
DoctG, he returned to the hotel and
went to his room, leaving an order at
the Office that the Doctor should be sent
to him. DR.. Moore soon arrived, and,
upon going to his room, found him dead.
His remains will be brought to Albany
on Tuesday at one O'Clock, in a special
train furnished by Mr.. Corning, in
charge Of the Burgess corps, and will be
deposited in the Capitol in this city.

Official Corruption.

1t isnow season Of general peculation
among our Democratic neighbors. The
default of Eads in Iowa, was followed by
that of some other official of the same
stripe in some other state; the greatest Of
which is that of Breslin the Democratic
Treasurer of Ohio, whose populations up.
on the treasury amount to over half mil.
lion.
The operation of Eads in Iowa was for
time defended by his party, but becom-
ing too plain, they became silent until af.
ter the election. Eads still claimed to
. act in the Office, and made his drafts upon
S. T. Commissioners, which, in general,
| they Iishonored Such was the case in
this county But a co-worker of Eads
succeeded to the Office, and the very first
step he takes is to approve of Eads appor-
tioument thus to cover up the frauds.
So We have it; dab again made at the
school funds
Mr.. Fisher approves of Eads doings in
the following circular:
OFFICE OF SUpr. Pun. IssrRucTIoS, }
Iowa City, june 10th, 1857.
SIR have received your letter ask
ing information aud advice, respectin.
the Apportionment Of School Money,
with the accompanying instructions, da-
ted March IA, 1851 made by James d.
Eads, claiming to act as Superintendent
Of Public Instruction, and the letter of
Joseph C. Stone, also claiming to act in
the same capacity, countermanding the
Apportionnent and Instruction Of Mr..
Eads.
Mr.. Eads came into the Office of Super
intendent of Public instruction by a good
title, and at the date Of the Apportion-
ment was in possession of tho Office, de-
nying the right Of Mr.. Stone to il, and
actually discharging its duties do not
mean to express any opinion as to the
right of either Of these gentlemen to the
Office in question; but admitting the right
of MIR. Stone, under the appointment of
the Governor, he could not, on the refu-
sal of Mr.. Eads to surrender the Office to
him, enter upon the discharge Of its du-
ties and require the obedience of School
Fund Commissioners to his instructions,
without first enforcing his right and ad-
mission to the Office by the judgment Of
the proper judicial tribunal. This Mr.
Stone has not done, and has never been
in possession of the office. MIR. Eads was
Superintendent Of Public INSTRUCTION in
fact, and where the right to an Office is in
controversy, the acts of the holder of the
office IN .tuct are, in general, valid and
binding on other officers in the same de-
partmcnt.
1t is, therefore, my opinion, that il is
the duty Of School Fund Commissioners
to distribute the School Money according
to the Apportionment sent to them by
MIR. Eads; and that School Fund Com
missioners upon whom drafts were drawn
by Mr.. Eads for the purpose of carrying
into effect that apportionment, should
pay them promptly on presentation.
| am with great respect,
Your obedicnt servant,

ger from the regulators. The journal
says: awe TREMBLE with anxiety for

We are led to believe that Gleason and
Soper have exposed the names of thirty
or forty who belonged to their gang, but
we did not suppose friend John Of the
Journal was one of them. If, however,
he feels guilty, he had better keep out
of the reach Of the regulators. Leg-bail
is good security for safety in suoh cases.
But, to speak seriously, the regulators
