Eg-M e. D. Clinton has written

EE- Mr.. E. d. Clinton has written
letter to the Lacrosse Democrat, giving
his estimates as 10 the cost of railroad
from Lacrosse to Prairie du Chen. He
states that the distance by land is but fifty
eight miles. The route, he says, was sur
veyed few years ago, and was found 10
be admirably adapted to the construction
ton Of railroad.
He estimates the cost at $500 per
mile, and expresses his willingness TO take
the contract Of construction at that figure.
If the company will furnish motive power
and cars 20 forward the material.-Prai-
RE du Chen Courier.
Mucl as we should be pleased with a
railroad from Prairie du Chen to La
Crosse, this Clinton is about the last man
upon earth entitled to credit, SO far IS es-
Inmates or any statements are concerned.
He is the man who, some years ago, played
SO sharply upon tie farmers in procuring
from them mortgages upon their farms to
aid in building the Milwaukee 4 Mississippi
railroad. Pretending to be religious at
the time, he held evening prayer meetings
doubtless as a stepping stone ito the pub
lie creGulity; and worst Of all he at last
deserted the railroad company and took a
leading part with the farm II ortgage leagu-
ers, thereby proving himself to be I'M
worthy Of trust even in the devils work
shop. l; may be well that he has rc-en-
listed in railroad enterprises, Otherwise he
might turn up Copperhead army con-
tractor for which he is SO well adapted.

There was 10 stir in Potosi on the Fourth.
More party animosity seems to exist than
can be laid aside even on that day. Po-
litical qnarrelS extend into socia' circles,
and the young as we'll as the old are separ-
ated by the dividing line of party. Ma
ternal beams and sisteFly lights shine upon
these discordant bands but shine selishly.
They do not fall equally upon the just and
the unjust. They will not even be coquet-
ish. There was time in Britain when
party hatred became So intense between
the wings and tories that the ladies not
content that the world should even have
doubt as to their preferences, wore black
patches upon their faces: those of one
party wore them on one side of tbe face.
those of the other on the other siue. If
party dissentions are to be encouraged why
hot give them their whole advantages?
