Council Bluffs and St. 10 Railroad.

The Council Bluffs BHgte gives the fol-
lowing account of the progress and pros
poets of the above road
The road will be, when finished, fifty
miles in length, including all side tracks.
1t is designed TO CONNECT at the State line
with the platte County Railroad, f" which
is now finished to Savannah, north Of ST..
Joseph Mo-, and soon viii be finished to
Forest City, about fly miles north from
ST. Joseph. From Forest Cly The road
will be constructed upon the Missouri
River bottom-a level plain, where the
grading will not cost over $3.50 to thu mile
and the road will be completed during
the present season, (if money matters
are not seriously disturbed by our nation
al difficulties to the north line Of the
State of Missouri, where the " roads
will connect, and give to the citizens of
Council Bluffs, a railroad connection via
the Hannibal & ST. Joseph Railroad with
all the cities os the South and East.
The Council Bluffs and ST. Joseph Rail
road has a subscription to It's stock of
over 100000, besides il has quite a large
amount of lands which will be made val
liable by its completion. One third of
the road is graded and timber ties for one
half of the road are now upon the line.
The contract for building the road is let
to Mr.. Charles Hendrie, who is to com
plete the road in twelve months from the
first day of January. 1861.
Mr. Hendrie built the first 81 miles of
the Burlington and Missouri River Rail
road" which cost nearly three times as
much per mile as our road is 10 cost, aud
we believe that he has both the expert
ence and means 10 enable him to comply

cost of the road will be less than $780,

Queer Frog.

On the Island Of False River Is found
a frog whose peculiaritieS, we believe.
have hitherto escaped the attention of
naturalists. Il is called the egg .rog, -
from its great hankering after "hrn
fruit" and is a great nuisance TO far
mers in consequence. Being unable to
break the shell of the egg, il IS swallow
ed whole, after which the frog climbs n
tree and then precipitates itself to the
ground. The fall breaks the she'll, and
the frog spits it out, piece by piece. Queer
frog that.-BatOn Rouge (La.) Sugar
Planter.
Yes; well, suppose that peculiar frog
found in False River, being without pow
er to break an egg she'll, swallows it
whole climbs a tree and falls down for
the purpose of breaking the she'll, what
does it want to 'sprt it out, piece by
piece" for? Queer frog that" surely.
