Prospects for Business.


The railroad connection between Omaha
and the East is now complete, and the

the Atlantic and Pacific must be immense.

The Company respectfully submit, that
the above statement OF facts fully demon

road the cars are now running, and the re-

these bonds pay an annual interest on the
present cost of
Nine per Cent,
and it is believed that on the completion
OF the road, like the Government Bonds,

present low rate, and retain the right TO
advance the price at their option.

The Milwaukee NewS of the 18th
says pedestrianism is becoming all the
rage out West, and records the follow
ing feat;
"SOme two weeks since a bet of $100
a side was made between Hesse Hassel
and Alfred Wilcox, both. of Portage
City, Wisconsin, that the former would
walk from Portage City to Milwaukee
in twenty-four consecutive hours
Wednesday evening last, at 4 o'clock
in the afternoon, Hassel started on the
trip. His friend, Mr.. Gorden, and
Wilcox, with whom he had the wager,
accompanied him in a buggy. The
route taken was the ordinary wagon
road which runs parallel to the rail
road, Hassel ate supper at Fox Lake
junction and arrived at Horizon lit
tie after eleven o'clock at night, where
he rested an hour. He then took up
the line of march for Milwaukee :;
breakfasted at Woodland; dined at
GreenviAe, and arrived at Milwaukee
twenty minutes past three o'clock, in
good condition, winning his wager
easily and having forty minutes to
spare. The distance between Por-
tage City and Milwaukee is ninety
five miles by railroad, and must ex-
ceed one hundred by actual measure
ment Of the wagon road. 1t must be
set down as the most extraordinary

THE PEOPLE Would Nor HEED

THE PEOPLE WOULD Nor HEED
The New York Evening Post, a leading
organ of the Radical party in that
State, sees the handwriting on the
wall and thus sounds the note of
alarm:
at cannot be denied that there has
been much incOnSiderate and even
dangerous Legislation in Congress during
the past two years. There has been a
good deal more inconsiderate and dan
gerous talk. There are still threats
made by men who ought to know bet
ter, which are nothing less than rev-
Olutionary, and of these things the
people are getting weary. They tell
their representatives in Congress that
insteadof listeningto their enthusiasts,
to their extreme men, to their Snm-
mrs, their Stevenses, and their But
lers, it would be better to the dictates
Of good sense, to the strict require
ments Of constitutional law, and to
men of moderation and statesmanship.
AS for reconstruction, it is not in so
hopeful a condition now as it was a
year ago, when the constitutional
amendment--article XIV-was passed.
Nearly all that Congress has since
done has been needless, Uiolent, unstates-
manliks-we might almost say, fdnati-
caI."
What did the Democratic editors
and stumpers tell the people pending
the electionsin 1862 Theytold them
that if they should elect the Radical
candidates to Congress there would
be "a good deal of inconsiderate and
even dangerous legislation in Con-
gress," and that reconstruction"
would be retarded instead of promo
ted. Now, we have the testimony in
the Above confrmatory of what the
Democrats predicted would result, and
this voluntary testimony comes from
leading journalist in the Republican
party. 1t will be well for the public
to ponder it, and to turn deaf ear to
the same Radical politicians who shall
in the ensuing contest undertake to
beguile them again into the support of
the Republican candidates. - Ohio

the time of holding the next State
Convention, as will be seen by refer

Hon. John G. Thompson, in this pa

We are in favor OF holding the Con-
vention on the 8th of January next,
and we hope the Committee will de-
eide to hold it on that day. Let us
have a long campaign-one like the
campaign that commenced January
8th, 1867, and closed October 8th, 1867
That was a glorious campaign-and
long will it be remembered by the ar
istratic tyrants who made last des-
perate effort to force African suffrage
upon the people of Ohio. Let us go
right into battle againl The 8th Of
January is the time to load the guns
