COUNTRY RoADs.-As is usual dur
ing the Winter season, there is a gen.
eral complaint from farmers who
visit the city, of the condition of the
roads. 1t is evident that the trade of
the city suffers a great deal in conse-
quence of the roads not being better
improved, especially the retail trade.
and it is in a great measure at
tributable to this fact, that prices for
marketing are SO high during the
season of bad roads. Certainly some.
thing ought to be done In regard to
this matter. Other cities in the State
have seized on the opportunity afford
ed by late act of the Legislature to
organize stock companies, for the i'm
provement of roads leading to Them
and it will be strange thing, indeed,
if the people of this city. ever wide
awake to their interest in other direc-
tions, do not take hold of this matter,
and move in it at the earliest practic-

two or three graveled roads have been
nearly completed leading from New
Albany to the most wealthy and best
improved parts of the country, and at
Madison, Fort Wayne and other cities
similar move was inaugurated near
Il year ago, and now those cities
are reaping the benefits of their en-
terprise. Of course, nothing could be
done Immediately to change or better
the condition of the roads, but pre-
parations ought to be made to begin
early in the Spring. There is an
abundance of rock and gravel, which
could be procured, not far from the
city, and those who have talked of
this matter feel confident that large
subscriptions, from farmers at dis
lance, as we'll as near the city, could
be readily obtained. It is for those
in the city, whose interest will be so
greatly subserved, to make the move.

done.

NEW METRoPOLTrAN.- was
fair attendance at the theatre on
Saturday night, aud the playing, gen.
orally speaking, was pretty good, but,
as is generally the case, several of the
stock were miserably deficient in their
parts. Prompting was heard at the
back of the theatre, and it is hoped
in future this thing will not occur
again. It is great injustice to the
manager of the tt eatre, who is labor
ing hard to build up place of amuse-
ment which people viii be glad to at
tend, but SO long as a part of
the company habitually come
on the boards, with but an imperfect
knowledge of the lines, it is not to be
expected that the theatre-goers will
be well satisfied. In justice to Mr..
Golden, and those who attend the
theatre, it is hoped the parties referred
to will make the necessary amends,
without a mention of the names Of
those referred to.
