Railroad to Fort Wayne.

Thecolunns OF the Gazette have CO ntain.
ed many articles setting forth the impor-
lance Of direct railway communication
with Fort Wayne, Indiana. That place
is the center Of = vast aud most productive
country, the trade Of which would natur-
ally tend to this city; but it has gone in
other directions, simply because there was
no direct road to Cincinnati. There was
still another reason for urging the con-
struction of direct road to Fort Wayne.
There a connection may be made with the
Grand Rapids Road, which hes received its
iron, and will be completed in one year,
and with the road to Saginaw, which viii
be running in two years. 1t is supposed
onc-half the lumber now used in this city
comes from Michigan. We need not stop.
therefore, to point out the great impor-
lance to Cincinnati of a direct railroad to
and through the great lumber regions Of
that State.
While, therefore, direct road TO Fort
Wayne would secure to US the trade Of an
important portion ofIpdiana, il would al.
so bring Us into communication with the
vast lumber regions Of Michigan. Yet
plainly valuable as this would be, Cincin /.
natl has been slow to contribute aid to that
enterprise. We have given paper encour.
agement aud passed the strongest kind OF
resolutions, but il requires money to build
railroads, and when Il came TO the money
we put our hands in our pockets and
kept them there. Consequently the Rich

need, has bean dragging. JUDGED. we I'm :
defstood awhile ago that II was dead. We
are glad TO learn, however, that new life
has been breathed into IT, and that II Is
fairly on It's feet again. and that il has bet
ter legs than IL had before.
On Friday evening last meeting was
held at Fort Wayne, at which were presen
Mr.. Cass, President OF the pittsburg. Fort
Wayne 4 Chicago Rrilroad, Mr.. L'lIom.
medieu, Of the g., II Il d. Railroad, Mr..
Edsarton. Of tho Grand Rapids Railroad,
aud tho President aud Directors OF the
Richmond 4 Fort Wayne Company. The
result was an agreement by which the Gin.
cinnati, Hamilton & Dayton with tho
Pi,isbarg, Fort Wayne 4 Chicago Com pany
join, pro rata, Ia guaranteeing the interest
on 81 10000 bonds, TO be used IN pur-
chasing the iron, chairs aud spikes
These companies also agree to furnish the
rolling stock 10 the proportion Of li8 TO
20 miles. The Cincinnati, Hamiltoa h
Dayton aud Eaton n ltichmond Com
panies are TO run tho road on joint pro "a.
IA account with the pi,Isburg. Fort Wayne
x Chicago.
Il now only remains for the Cincinnati,
Richmond aud Fort Wayne Company to
increase It's capital stock, so as to secure
additional means sufficient TO make the
road from Richmond to Fort Wayne ready
for the iron. A great deal Of this work
has already been done, aud IL Cincinnati
will do It's share. which will not DO large.
the road may DO opened Ia twelve months
from the 4th Of i'll, next.
This new route will give direct line to
Chicago only eight miles longer than tho
shortest of the present routes; but this Is Of
little consequence compared with other
advantages TO which We have referred.
IL will open up new markets for our mer
chants and manufacturers, aud when We get
our Southern connections, whichare bound
TO come, hard as IL now seems TO do any
thing except talk, We will have a great
chain Of roads from the far South TO the
extreme North on almost direct line.
Thus Cincinnati will realize advan tages,
vast and superior, which nature has so
lavshly placed within her reach, aud moth
ing further will be required to give her
perpetual supremacy as the great city of
the Valley. -[G,zstte.

Spring.

TOT the Amcricans
Spring.
Time fies fast; his frsighted wing,
From orange grove and spicy brake,
Comes laden with the joys Of Spring,
Which travel In grim Winters wake.
The rills transfer the April showers
FROM hillsides to the brooks below;
The primrose, tiniest Of the flowers,
Aud other herbs, begin TO grow.
The little birds the Winter long,
Were silent as the tread Of death;
By Instinct they renew the ssng
They used to sing among the heath.
The martin and the lowly wren
Are twittering to their comrades near,
Whilst comics gambol In the glen,
Devoid Of every earthly care.
Whilst sitting In some shady nook,
And musing on these scenes Of love,
think OF Him who's worshiped here,
While praised by other tongues above.
think that In that world serene,
A crown OF glorv i shall have,
And angels help TO view the scene,
And sing the power Of Christ to save.
So Ora.

Election Tickets.

The act to authorize the election of an
additional udge of the Court of Common
Pleas in this District provides that the first
election for such Judge shall be held on the
first Monday in April next, and that the
election shall be conducted and the returns
thereof made as required by law in case of
the election of other Judges of the Court
of Common Pleas. The name of the can
didate for additional Judge should, there
fore, be placed on the same ticket with the
names OF the candidates for township Off
GERS. In order that this may be done, the
Democrats of each township in the county,
where they have not done so already
should Immediately nominate their candi-
dates for township officers, and forward
list of them to GEORGE w. MEEKER, ESQ.,
as soon as possible, SO that he can have the
tickets printed in proper form and sent out,
bsfore the election These lists ought to
be forwarded, if possible, by next Thurs
day. The judicial office thar is to
bo filled is an important one, and
full vote ought to be cast for

inee, who is well qualified to discharge the
duties of the position, and is in all respects
entitled to strong vote.

yery Kind I'm ,,,e TeIeeranb.

We don't know why it is that the tele-
graph is very particular when the Re
publicans carry some town or viii
lage to inform us of it. Yesterday, the
telegraph brought us the intelligence that
all the way down in Maine the Republi-
cans on Monday elected their candidates in
Eastport, Pembroke and Lubre. We are
not informed by what majority, or wheth-
er the pu5licans have made gains over
former elections. Usually, where the Dem
ocrats carry towns or villages, we have to
depend 1or information of it upon the
mails or specials. The regular dispatches
abstained from communicating the infor-
nation that the Democrats had carried
Ellsworth, Maine, by a majority of 15O-
having made gain thereby of 800. Is this
discrimination because nowadays Re-
publican victories are SO few and far be-
tween?

Rebuke tine RevoIu,Ioni.,..

We agree with the Portsmouth Times, that
the people will have at the coming April
election, an opportunity to administer
rebuke to the Radicals at Washington for
the revolutionary proceedings that have
characterized their legislation-an oppor-
tunity they should not neglect. 1t will
not be question merely as to who shall
fill the township offices, but as to whether
the people will by Implication lend their
sanction to the dangerous usurpations of
Congress. which threaten to subvert our
institutions and change the character of
the Government itself. Let the people
speak out upon this question. All who
desire the restoration of peace and harmony
throughout the country, should unite and
declare their opposition to the faction that
is attempting to rule the nation with an
iron hand. The Democracy should put
full ticket in the field in every township,
present their best men as candidates, and
bring out their entire vote on the first
Monday in April. Organize, appoint, rail-
lying and challenging committees, urge
every Democrat to come early to the polls,
and thus begi with spirit the campaign of
1868.
