Europe, that there "was a medicine that will

truly DIl spirit to manifest; but when
We ara coma pelled, by force of circum-
stances, b rely upon either of the same

It has been in this position the Marietta
ard Cincinnati Railroad stood to this
portion Of Ohio for couple of years
past, being of but little advantage to
Southern Ohio, and still less to itself, as
lie now fairly demonstrated. The bed of
the road at first leaving the course designed
by nature for it, and being protected by
\ Legislative enactment, forbidding the
construction of like improvement to in
tersect it on the south, together with in
competent managers, it's failure cannot be
wondered at. The enactment referred TO-
which has been proven to be "hot IRON
to those who cherished it. we presume
will be repealed. leaving competition free
to enterprising localities on the Ohio
River.
The Company. we understand, is in 4
state of utter insolvency--unable to dis

in consequence of which the engineer
