st. Louis and st, Paul.

The project of connecting st. Louis
and St. Paul by means of railroad
through the State of Iowa, is one which
has elected the attention of the citi-
zens of the three States interested for
the past half year. 1t originated with
the st. Louis people who desire great.
ly to secure the trade of our State. 1t
is favored by the citizens of our State
in the hope that better prices and inn
proved facilities in sending produce
forward will result from competition
of markets. There have been several
projected routes through this State for
the Iowa branch of this railway, de-
signed eventually to connect St. Louis
and st. Paul. The old scheme of build
ing q road up the Des Moines Valley
has never had the sanction nor receiv-
ed the support of the st. Louis people.
Another project recently started is to
build road from Pella, Marion coun-
ty, by way of Newton, and MARSHALL
town, and thence, following the Iowa
River Valley north, in the direction of
st. Paul. Another project, known as
the Iowa Central, is to construct road
from Oskaloosa by way of Toledo to
Cedar Falls, connecting at the latter
place with the road now being opera
ted from Waterloo to Waverly, and in
tended to be continued in the direction
of St Paul, and at Oskaloosa, with
road to be built south to connect with
the north Missouri road, thus forming
the link necessary to connect the two
cities. Another projected line is the
st. Louis and Cedar Rapids, which in
our opinion is the only feasible and
practicable project suggested. This
is project to construct a line of rail-
way from a point on the State line in
Davis county, where connection will
be made with the North Missouri
X. r., leading into st. Louis !; thence to
Ottumwa in Wapello county thence
through keokuk, Iowa, and Johnson
counties to Cedar Rapids. The con-
vention held in Cedar Rapids on the
9th ult., was for the purpose Of or
ganizing railroad company to build
this road Waterloo Courier.

OLE yntelligenter,
A Sad Case.

Mr.. T. B. Aldrich, the unfortunate
man whose arrest, incarceration in
jail and suffering from delirium tire
mems we recorded in yesterdays issue,
died on Thursday night, alone in bis
cell Mrs. Ackley, wife Of the jailor,
had but few moments before his
death administered such homely RENE
dies as her experience led her to be.
lieve might lessen the suffcrings of
the prisoner patient /; but alas, all in
vain.
The saddcst part Of this sad tale re.
mains to be told. Mr.. Aldrich was
the son of highly respected Massa-
chusetts clergyman, still living. In
1856 Mr.. A. was young merchant in
Boston, and failed. Coming to Iowa to
retrieve his fortunes, he reached the
town Of Denison in Crawford county.
Here his rare business qualifications,
thorough education, gentlemanly de-
pertinent, energy and integrity, soon
won him hosts of friends. He was
appointed Postmaster, then elected
Clerk of the District Court. Prefer.
ring the adjoining country, Carroll,
he removed thither. His reputation
had preceded him. He was elected
Clerk for the District Court there also.
and twice reelected. Then was clio.
sen Treasurer and Recorder holding
these until last Fall, when he was
drafted. Leaving his young and ac-
complished wife he came to Camp Nc
Clellan. A splendid penman. he was
soon made clerk at headquarters
Here, away from home aud its hallow-
ed associations, he gradually formed
associations with drinking officers.
drank deeply himself and became fire.
quently inebriated. A short time ago
he was mustered out and was again
free. This event was signalized by a
spree. Too proud. it is supposed, to
hasten homeward while bearing evi
dence Of his drinking bout, lie re-
NAMED in this city and again and
again gave up to the tempter. While
laboring under deliriam tremens, he stole
clothing, &C., as we have before
stated. and soulless liquor dealers
aided him down to death and hell by
still feeding the terrible appetite
which was consuming him. The rest
il known. Poor Aldrich died as thou
sands have before, victim to the at
cursed traffic in Intoxicating liquors.
Far off in his once happy home his
youthful wife impatiently awaits his
coming. On her widowed lap repos-
es the innocent pledge of conjugal af
lection, born after her husbands drp%r :
urc. A drunkard's widow aud orphan,
