FENCING Railroads.

There seems to be some confusion of
ideas among the people in regard to the
liability of railroad companies fencing
their roads. In 1859, law was passed
requiring any railroad company haying
their road in running order, within two
years after the passage OF, that act, to fence
both sides of their road: Provided, that
whenever such railroad passed through or
along the boundary of any inclosed field or
fields, the proprietors were required to con-
struct one half of the fence necessary to
be enforced in the same manner as are par
tition fences between two or more in
dividuaf boundaries; so, also, i'll regard to
cattle guards.
This law the Legislature suspended sew
eral times, until finally it took effect and
went in force March %, 1865.
All we'll managed and paying railroad
companies complied with this act; but
Others neglected and refused to comply.
Mr.. Bloom, the member from Richland
county, introduced into the House at this
session bill making the fencing so built or
furnished for railroad company a lien, or
preferred claim, against railroad company,
the same as any other materials or labor
furnished to the company, and applying
the earnings of the road to the payment of
the same. The original law provides that
any agent may be made to answer before
the Court of Common Pleas as to money in
his hands for the company, and authorizes
the Court to order its payment upon such
claims as have been adiudged against the
company. This bill was finally passed on
Saturday, and is therefore now a law, and
includes this item offencing built or furnish
ed. 1t provides all the legislation neces-
sary to protect the rights of farmers that
they could expect. Roads that are respon-
sibile can be made to pay upon execution.
This law will Happily the earnings Of railroads.
even in cases where the roads and running
stock is all under mortgage, so as not to be
reached by the usual process.

savagely mangled and murdered at Ohm

Very Refreshing 10 Radicals.

Radicals affect to find refreshing comfort
in the alleged fact that delegations from
Wall street, or the great financial world,'
are not "urging the adoption of the Presi-
dents reconstruction policy"
Suppose they amt urging the adoption
of his policy, what does that circumstance
amount to? At what time in the worlds
history did they become the exponents of
the rights and interests of the great mass
of the people? Was it when they made
unrelenting war upon President JACKSON? !?
