The old turnpike running Ron
this place to Circleville, and from
this place to Wilmington, was some
years since abandoned by the com.
pany, since which time no work has
been done on it, and it has become
very bad in many places. We are
glad to say that measures are being
taken to have the road established
as county road, when it is to be
put in good order under the law of
the State authorizing the repair and
Improvement of county roads. 1t
needs it badly, and we hope before
another year to see it put in good
order through the county.

= The Improvement of the Chill
licothe road was commenced last
Monday, at the old corporation
line, South of town. The hill just
beyond The creek is being cut down
several feet and graded, ready for
graveling. Messrs. Coffman &
Grove, the contractors, are men
who will push the work ahead as
rapidly as possible.
Workmen are also engaged on the
Jefersonville road, commencing at
the corporation line North of town,
and Burnett u Snider are preparing
to commence the improvement OF
the Hillsboro road from the corpo-
ration line to Wabash Creek.
The Leesburg road, which was
advertised for sale the second time,
on account of the first contractor
having backed out, for some reason,
will not, probably, be built this sea-
son, only one bid having been re-
ceived, and that only for five miles
of the road. The scarcity of gravel
along the road and the short time
allowed for it's completion, makes
contractors backward about taking
hold. IN

Illinois, says;
:" l am well pleased with this
country as farming country. The

very good until the rain that fell
yesterday"
Although we regret to lose Mr..

his new home.
Illinois has, within a few years,
attracted the attention of many of
our best citizens to such a degree
that they have cast their lots with

where we feel confident their worth
as good citizens will be appreciated,

CLEAN UP,-Our citizens should
spare no pains in cleaning up their
premises the cholera may be
among us this season, and no pains
should be spared in cleaning up
lots, out-buildings, and ridding the
town of every thing likely to gen.
crate disease, or to render it more
virulent when it is iE our midst
There are many alleys in town that
deserve the special attention Of the
Fathers of the village, and we hope
they will require a thorough clean
ing up of streets, alleys, and of the
town generally, not only to i'm
prove the appearance Of the town,
but as a Sanitary measure. We
hope this will be done without de-
lay. T
