BRIDGE BUILDISG.-The new Suspension
Bridge now in course Of erection over the
the Ohio, at Wheeling, will have a span of
over one thousand feet. 1t will be COM
posed of four new cables, two on each side,
each cable being Z ] inches in diameter and
containing 1880 strands of wire, making
a single strand Of 9,273,OOO feet or LAS
miles in length. The estimated cost of fin
ishing and completing the whole structure
is 1000, which is only seven thousand
dollars more than two wretched abutments
for a bridge over small creek has cost this
county within the past year. Other COM
munities can bridge the Ohio for half the
price it costs us to bridge Pigeon creek.

THE New FAIR GRoUNDs.-These beauti-
ful grounds are visited daily by numbers
and the figure-S-tive- horse course is prac.
ticed upon every afternoon, by any number
of horses and mules for show. Gentlemen
and ladies side by side between fast trotters,
may be seen on the course daily, whilst Pc
destrians carefully inspect the progress Of
the work, and admire the metamorphosi;
of an unbroken forest into a Fair Ground,
fenced and built up in the short space ol
four weeks. A track is making on the
banks of Pigeon Greek, for the arcommoda.

ready here, awaiting the grand gathering,

- The Opposition party of Hamilto

M The Opposition party of Hamilton
County, Ohio, are opening the campaign
with great enthusiasm. Dissensions and
disaffections growing out of dissatisfaction
with some of the nominees, has been gradu-
ally dispelled, and all sections of the party
seem willing to labor for the success of the
entire ticket. This state of feeling has
been brought about, in a great measure, by
the magnanimous course Of some Of the de-
-feated candidates for the nomination, who
came forward and pledged their efforts to the
success of the ticket. The Commercial says
The report just now is, that the ticket is
going through with grand rush. The
'Spreads" are full of sound and fury, and
will holler" night and day until the elec-
ton is over. The Germans are in state ol
big satisfaction. The withdrawal of Pro-
basco has been offered up as a probation for
much Know Nothing sin, and has proven
acceptable. The Republicans in general are
pleased with the turn things have taken, and
think they can go il. So there will be a
long pull, and a stong pull, and pull al
together against the Democratic organiza-
tion, aid we should not feel at all surprised
| if the whole Opposition ticket were elected
! by as large q majority as last fall'

SKILL AND EXPERIENCE. We refer our
readers to the notice of partnership OF
Doctors BRAY & SAWYER, two veteran and
able physicians and surgeons. DR.. BRAY
has an eminent reputation secured by sue
cessful practice, for the period of an ordi-
nary professional lifetime. DR.. SAWYER,
though principally known here as man OF
business was graduate from the same med
ical school as DR.. BRAY, and was for fourteen
or sixteen years q successful physician and
surgeon in the Northern part of the State
In the union of so much experience and
skill, safety and relief for the sufferer will
be found, if it be attainable anywhere.

D6- Railroads, in thirty-three years, have
produced most surprising revolution in
the condition of the country, which is for
cibly impressed upon us by the fact that
Mr.. g. Bryant, the engineer, who built the
short railroad of two or three miles from
Boston Bay to the granite quarries of Quin-
cy, Mass,-the first railroad in the Union
and which was constructed in 1926, when
he was ihirty-6ve years oil, is now engaged
at the age of seventy, In writing history
of the railroad system Of the United States
There are now over five hundred railroads
extending their iron ribs over 10000 mile:
Of track. This is revolution wrought
within period of one generation. If the
change in the next thirty years be in the
same ratio of progress, the dreams of til,
most enthusiastic speculator will be more
than realized. - .---

Apparent Industrial Prosperity.

Many Of the papers in the commercial
the revival of trade, as indicated by the in
creased imports, and the large sales for the
consumption of the interior. The amount
of imports is not always a measure of the
ability Of the country to buy, and the pur-
chases for consumption in the interior are
usually made on anticipated returns OF
crops The South with her enormous, cot
ton crop at high prices, may be safe from
conyulsions. But Middle and Northwest
ern States, though blessed with abundant
harvests, will be obliged to accept of prices
SO low, that the actual returns for their pro-
ducts exported will probably be less than
in the worst crop season they have had in
many years. The New York Tribune, in
discussing the subject Of foreign imports,
says that it is mystery how the West is to
pay for the share of imported goods which
it is consuming. Apart from the injuries
which her crops have suffered in many 10
calities, she has lost two Of her principal
customers. The foreign demand for pro-
visions has greatly diminished, and even this
diminished quantity is sold at frightfully
diminished prices, such as scarcely give the
grower the cost of production.
At the same time, the army of railroad
laborers, by which for several years past the
West has been occupied, and which con-
sume'i so large proportion of her surplus
product, has been almost entirely withdrawn.
Nor even in the Northern and Middle States
are capital and industry so remunerative as
could be desired. The great navigating in
terest continues sadly depressed. Railroad
= dividends are but too seldom forthcoming.
The great coal mining enterprises do not
realize from their business any extravagant
rate Of profit. Though the manufactures OF
the North have to some extent revived from
the paralysis from which they suffered so
severely, the financial embarrassments OF
their great customer, the West, still leaves
them in a precarious position, The low
prices Of produce a. the East and in Europe,
will reduce prices of freights, and all bust
ness connected with transportation, which at
the West is one of its most important in
dustrial interests, must fail TO give its usual
returns. The present condition of commer-
cial affairs at the West and the prospects Of
Western export trade, are subjects for the
consideration of men of all classes in this
region. t.

R@ The Chicago Journal gives an anus
ing account Of detective in that city, who
discovered, one evening, form plodding
along in the distance, attired in a black
Kossuth hat, its shoulders covered with a
shawl, folded after the manner of mascu-
lines, while its extremities were clothed in
black pants. The walk showed femininity
in every step, and the detective proceeded
to arrest the woman for appearing in the
street in male attire. The lady quietly
stepped to gas lamp, and exhibited gown
beneath the shawl, demonstrating that she
was full-rigged Bloomer, and also told the
officer, for his satisfaction, that she edited a
reform paper, and was just on her way to
the depot. He stammered an apology, and
permitted her " TO pass on"

invitation to sIr. Douglas.

The following is a copy of the letter ad-
dressed to Mr. Douglas, inviting him to
visit and address the citizens of this State,
which is now being circulated for signatures
through the State. 1t has been very nu-
merously signed in Marion and many OF
the central counties. II is supposed the
letter will bear twenty thousand names
The signing of it is made the test of anti
Lecompton Democracy by the Douglasites:
TO the Hon. Stephen A. Douglas:
The undersigned Democrats of --
county, Indiana, representing the wish Of
the masses of the Democracy of this local
ity, earnestly request that at your earliest
convenience you will visit our State, and
address the people upon the political topics
of the day.
It has not yet been presented to Hen
bricks nor Dunham, but it is said the
pledge of sincerity viii be exactsd of them.
Mr.. Cunningham, the State Treasurer, first
signed the letter, but after consultation or
reflection, erased his name; he could not
be made to stick. The invitation will Of
course be accepted, and Mr.. Douglas visit
will call together one of the largest political
assemblages ever gathered in the State. 1t
is reported at Indianapolis that the Douglas
Democracy are getting their spunk up, and
declare they will not be rode over "booted
and spurred" by Col. Robinson and his
deputies any longer. They are determined
to take possession of the organization and
use it for their own advancement, and to
the overthrow of the Lecomptonites.
]. L. Robinson and the Brightmen still
persist on holding the State Democratic
Convention on Monday, the 9th of January
next in spite of the change of day made
by majority Of the State Committee to
Wednesday, the llth. They are resolved
on having packed anti-Douglas delegation
from this State to the Charleston Conven-
ton, even if it should cause a split in the
party, and result in sending two sets of del
egates the anti-Douglas Lecomptonites,
know very well, in such an event. that their
delegation would be the only one to gain
admittance. The Lecompton leaders are
looking for a bargain for the vote of this
State, in the nomination, TO the best paying
aspirant before the Convention The
destruction of the party at home would be
no loss to these old leaders, since their con-
troll oft by legitimate means has departed.
They look to Washington and place their
hopes on Executive favor for future emolu-
ments and power. Both sides now expect
there will be two sets of delegates from this
State, as well as from New York.

ny The Florida Railroad. that ru

~ The Florida Railroad, that runs
across the neck of the Cape of Florida,
from Fernandina to Cedar Keys, distance
of l54 miles, is completed. The road is de-
signed to accommodate trade and travel
from the Atlantic sesboard to New Orleans,
obviating the necessity Of going around the
capes of Florida, and thus saving 500 miles
of circuitous, dangerous, and expensive nav
igation. It also possesses importance, as
opening the interior Of Florida to enterprise
and settlement. -.-v.r.-r.srsg s-
The harbor of Fernandina has twenty

THR VALUE OF CUBA TO SPAIN.-The re-
ceipts into the Cuban Treasury for the last
six months, exceeded ten millions Of dollars
In the preceding six months they were
SO, SOC, 900, making total for the year Of
SIS, 500, 900, equal to about one- third of the
revenue of the United States for the same
period. One-third of the Cuban revenues
is from land "rentes" perpetual rent ex-
acted by the government as condition of
the original grant to the holder;-the re-
mainder is principally from customs. The
treasury receipts exhibit a steady increase
of million of dollars annually. Beside
the direct revenues to the government,
Spain makes the Island contribute largely
to the maintenance of her home industry,
by excluding all competition on the Island
with the products sent thither from Spain.
The Cuban pays a tax of at least 81 or So
to the Spanish farmer on every barrel OF
-four he consumes, and it is by thus adding
to the profits of Spanish labor, that the
people of Spain are enabled to bear the ex-
cessive taxes imposed at home. In this way
Cuba may indirectly help Queen Isabella to
raise $4,000, 600 more in Spain than her
subjects could ! ay into the national treasury,
if deprived of the monopoly of the Cuba
trade. The Island is therefore most val.
liable possession to Spain, without which
her government would sink into bankruptcy

making arrangements for a magnificent Fair
which begins on Tuesday next. The dis
play of fine stock, agricultural and mechan-
ical products, promises to be larger and
more varied than at any preceding exhibi-
ton. We wish our sister county success in
her enterprise, but do not think some of her
citizens have chosen the best course to at
tain it. Attempts to injure the District
Fair-which, in connection with our usual
county annual exhibition, isheld in our city
at the same time Of the Warrick Fair-will
60 but a very little ways towards enhancing
the interests of the latters display. A gen.
erous emulation we admire, but disposition
to pull down one to build up another, is not
eminently praiseworthy. We regret that
different days could not have been selected
for holding these Fairs, which ought not to
be rivals, and think had more conciliatory
spirit been manifested by those having the
matter in charge, it might have been done.
AS it is, both parties should do their very
best towards making a fine display, and
give vent to their outraged feelings, by ad-
ditional beauty and interest given to their
respective shows.
