The Railroad Immediate Action
Necessary to Secure the Road.

We have been shown q letter Irom
GEO. w. JAoKsoN, Esq, now at
Marietta, addressed to one of our
citizens, in relation to Rail Road
matters, from which we make the
following extract. 1t will be seen
that the question of Rail road, or
no Rail Road, is soon to be present
ed to our people, and that its success
or nop-success, will depend wholly
upon their action in TIE matter. We
hope our people will think of the
matter, so that, upon Mr.. CUTTERS
arrival here, they may be fully pre-
pared to answer the great question
Shall we have Rail Road?
came up with Mr.. CUTLER on the
cars, and again saw him yesterday.
We had long talk. He is full of
the work, and will leave to- morrow
morning for Pomeroy-s spend week
there canvassing, and then 60 on to
Gallipolis. He has made. arrange
ments to spend this month in en-
deavors to carry through the project,
but if our people do not respond, he
WiU paste no further time and adopt the
honton connection. This is no threat
of his, but the policy adopted by the
Directors Of the III. d G. R. R., at
their late meeting. An AGENTS now
in Lawrence County working the
matter through 1t is a matter of
life or death with the M. q c. R. R.,
as the B. & o. R. R., just at present
are putting forth extra efforts to
throttle it. If Mason County fails
to do her duty and our side is appa.
thetic, and do not come up heavily,
the Sandy route and Ironton connec.
tion will be adopted. Although
much less direct route, yet you can
see that the NJ. d C. r. R., would
have much less expense to incur, and
could secure a connection to the sea-
board. AT the meeting of the Direc-
tors full instructions were given to
Mr.. CUTLER to execute the mortgage
and have the different sized bonds
printed.
1t is now or neVer with US. The
details of the plaa he intends to
adopt he unfolded to me, and if
rightly presented before our people,
will impress them with its feasibility
and security, as an investment.

BASE BALL.--A laughable game Of
Base Ball was played Saturday after.
noon on the Public Square, between
ssme OF our sober and sedate eiti-
zens, who had never handled bat
or made a home run since the days
Of childhood. The "Muffins," with
WIN. CHERINGToN % Captain, were a
younger set than the ''Silver Locks, -
and 1t was thought would win the
game. The "Silver Locks" how
ever, showed superior musel, not
withstanding their age, and went in
bound to win regardless of broken
heads or stiff limbs. His honor,
Mayor DANRoN, was Captain, and
the whole club was compos ed of solid
men. -..- d.
Play was promptly called at 8 80
P. Nj and after two innings were
played the game closed on account
OF the late hour. At the close the
Silver Locks had scored SO, to 2osfo.
their opponents, thus gaining the
victory: On the first inningthe win
ming club astonished everybody but
their enthusiastic Captain, by max.
ing 26 tallies, feat, that demoralized
the other club.
The success of the Silver Locks
was largely due to their Captain,
who gave his commands with the
promptness of general on the field
Of battle, eagerly requesting the
field men, whenever q "MuHin" nit
the bali, to ''fiing her into Caleb"
and showing the greatest anxiety
that every one running around should
''go to the second base"
But one fly ball was caught, on ac-
count OF the sun shining in the eyes
Of the players. That this was the
only reason is proved beyond doubt
by the fact that SAMUEL CoLK caught
the only fly ball in the whole game
after the san had set. CoLx was deco
rated with q rosette for this speci-
men Of fne play, while JxssE INeELs
received q like badge for making the
only home run that was made. We
did not time this famous run, but are
certain it was made inside Of thirty
minutes.
We noticed enc serious fault in
the play Of both elubs; the long field
men would persist in sitting on the
grass and talking TO their friends

E We copy from the Richmor

H We copy from the Richmond
(Va.,) Dispatch, an important letter
from Col FoUNrA1NE, on matters re-
lating to the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad. The Dispatch says:
We publish this morning a letter
from Col. Fountaine on the subject
of the subscriptions by several of the
counties at the western end of the
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad upon
the condition that their subscriptions
shall be expended upon their end of
the line. We have never felt the
slightest alarm on this subject; but
rather felt gratifed at the position
assumed by the people of Mason,
Cabell, &C., because it showed that
they were in earnest, and that they
believed the railroad would be
built. Therefore we are more than
pleased with Col. Fountaine's letter,
since he extracts not only consola-
tion, but encouragement, from the
stand taken by the people near the
Ohio. We understand thoroughly
the views of the Colonel-manS of
which are not communicated in his
letter. He has visited the valley of
the Kanawha for the first time in his
life, and he sees the vast power and
energy of the people and the mex
haustible resources of that country.
He is inspired with the most un-
bounded confidence in these ele-
ments of great achievements, and no
longer doubts. He knows that the
western half Of the great improve
ment, under his direction, can be
pushed rapidly to completion by the
energies of these people. He be-
lieves that in this way there will be
no necessity for pledging the prop
erty of the eastern division for the
money to build the western, and he
very logically concludes that the
completion of the whole line win be
much facilitated by thus permitting
the enthusiastic and powerful ener-
gies OF the people of the West to be
epplled at once to the great. work,
instead of waiting until we work our
way through the Alleghanies and
along the upper Kanawha to where
we reach the fair land Of promise
which they inhabit.

MILL CREEK BRIDGE.-We would
call the attention of the proper au-
thorities to the causeway on both
sides of the Mill Creek Bridge, just
above the city. 1t is so narrow, es-
pecially on the upper side, that it is
impossible for wagons to pass on it.
The bridge itself, is too narrow,
wagons passing with the greatest
difficulty. The Inconvenience of this
will be seriously felt next week, when
eur County Fair is in blast. On a
road SO generally Travelled as this,
we think there should be a cause
way wide enough for the passage of
carriages and double track bridge.

practice that interfered with their
catching fly balls. and that profess
sional player would not be guilty Of.
Some splendid "fouP' balls were
hit, the short stop was admirably
played, and the running was what it
should be-slow but sure.
The game furnished amusement as
well to the players as the large crowd
that looked On and enjoyed the fun.

the nine innings will be finished be-
