The Ogle County Reporter of this week has the
foowings in regard to matters connected with the
extension Of this Road
On Tuesday last the Executive Committee OF
this division of the Kenosha Road met at Byron
and chose an Engineer They selected Francis
Chase, Esq of this County, who is known to be
well qualified for such a position, We are glad
that the Company have secured the services of Mr..
c. for his ability and energy will be Of great val
ue in the prosecution of the work.
From our remarks last week the inference
might be drawn that the required amount had
already been raised. Such ia not the case
The flcts are, a sufficient amoOut has been
secured by town subscription to warrant the opin-
ion that if proper exertions are made, the amount
can, undoubtedly, be raised, by private subscrip
tons, in towns where no tax has been voted
The amount necessary to be raised to secure the
completion of the road is comparatively small,
and il those living along the route subscribe as lib
orally es they sho.ld, and as we have no doubt
they will, within the next twenty days the com
pletion OF this road to Dixon may be secured,
beyond reasonable doubt During the pres
ent week subscription books will be Openedl and
the friends Of the enterprise solicited to give
practical demon traton of their good will.
1t is the wish Of the contractor to sub-let the
road to parties along the road and win take sub
scrptions to be paid in work, ties, or anything
that can be used in constructing the road. He
will be here about the first of March, for the pur-
pose of letting his contracts. We hope those in
ter ested will take hold of the matter and have
everything ready upon his return

Miss Emma Jnv RuIIene.

This remarkable Trance SIP eaker delivered a
Lecture, while in trance state, at the Court
House,on Saturday evening last for the benefit
of the sufferers in Kansas. The house though
a very respectable one, was not as full as we
could have wished for the sake of the cause.
Mrs Bullene is certainly a remarkable
speaker. She held her audience in the most
enwrapt attention for about an hour and half
The subject was "The present Age and Che
Inner life" The Lecture took somewhat of
a political phase, advising the Free States not
to compromise any longer with slavery, and
prophescying that year would bring about
great changes, and especially great blessings
to the course Of freedom and Free principles
generally,
The Lecture concluded with most devout
and appropriate prayer, and an improvised
song, whose wierd and touching melody took
all hearts
The lecture was well worth % cents, even
if it had not been given for the cause of suffer
ing Kansas, and we were sorry that under the
circumstances there were not more to hear it.

Gone.-Whats Gone? Why, the sleighing
to be sure. After having more snow than we
have had before for years, and alter we had had
it SO long that we never dreamed that it could
depart before the first of April we have lost it
all IN day and anight. On Saturday morn
ing last the atmosphere felt soft and balmy, but
it was not very warm. Before night, however.
it had commenced thawing and raining and that
continued until Monday morning. when the
sleighing was pretty ef'ectually used up tbonob
occasional patches of snow were visible over
the landscape, and isome ice remained in the
streets. The rattle and rumble of wagons owe,
the frozen streets have taken the place of tn,
bells, that were so lately the music that greeted
our ears at all hours
We have had a car tal winter for business
and the body of snow on the ground has pro
tected the winter wheat where they have any
and even with us the snow has been of grea
benefit to the soil, and our next summer crop
viii be heavier for it.
