the pucuniary aid in their power to
further that object,
Messrs Jos. Mann & Co. pledged fifty
thousand Dollars of their private means
if the road would be built.
Messrs Jos. Mann, Doc. j. Oswald
and Cyrus w. Witcomb were appointed
a Committee to corfer with other towns
on the subject and report as some future

THE NEW HOTEL. last Saturday

THE NEW HOTEL. On last Saturday
evening the new Northwestern Hotel,
recently built by Mr. Kettenhoffen, on
the South side, was formally opened, by
grand free lunch. The 'lunch" con-
sisted of ali the delicacies of the season,
and reminded one of thanksgiving din
ner more than a free lunch. The new
hotel is situated on Jay street, andis one
Of the finest buildings in our village.
"Mat " has had deal of experience in
hotel keeping, and we are sure will Sc
cure liberal share of patronage, for he
has q house worthy of it.

r. l.. Allen.

IL. II. AllGn.
Fort WAYNE, Ind, Nov. s, 1869.
1t will be sadly pleasing to large cir
Gle of friends and acquaintance, to know
something of the circumstances OF his
death, and the testimony of one who was
for many years his pastor and intimately
conversant with him. may not only be
grateful to his immediate connections, but
usual to other.
He arrived in Stockholm from Got
tenberg by the Swedish Lakes on the
morning of the 22d of September, ap-
parently in his usual health. After
breakfast, he drove to the steamer to
engage his passage for St. Petersburg in
few days, then to the heights which
command the finest view of the city and
its environs, and after short visit to Royal
Royal Library, he was taken illin the street
and carried Immediately to his lodgings.
An hour after he said with great en-
phasis, when | think of Gods love in
sending His dear Son to die for our sins,
[ am overwhelmed. | think | can never
appreciate his amazing goodness. . And
SO with a sweet patience and thoughtful
ness of the dear ones around him passed
the day which, unconsciously to him and
to them, was to usher in bis Immortality
About 9 o'clock he said the neuralgia
pains had left his arms and head and
seemed to be concentrated at his left
side, and he suggested the Doctor should
be called Before he arrived, all was
over.
Mr.. Allen was no common man. Physl-
cally and mentally he was far above the
| average of his kind. In his brow and
eye and every feature of his face, in his
whole Frame he was of nature choicest
works In his disposition, temperament
and taste, in his mental grasp and furnl-
ture, in completeness and symmetry,
few, if any, persons Of my Acquaintance
excclled him. His piety was of very high
order He was profoundly gracious.
His being was sutfesed with the life of
Cod which was manifested in the
spirit of peace and of love and of a
! sound mind" which signalized his char
acter. Self difident, humble, retiring
/ in his feelings. there was nothing bust
ling, spasinodic OF ftful in his Christian
walk. Such was his quietnes and in
ward assurance in Chaist, that he often
reminded me of the beloved leaning on
the bosom Of his Lord His simple faith
lifted him above the influences. which
disturb and unbalance many minds, and a
singular serenity Of soul marked him

THE RAcE.-Considerable excitement
was exhibited on Tuesday last, caused by
the announcement of race, to come off
that afternoon between George Barker S
"Buckskin'' and a gray mare belonging
to Mr.. Wyman Murphy. A large crowd
gathered on the track, on the ice near
the Rapids. and before the start was
made, considerable betting was done,
Barkers horse being the general favorite.
At last all was ready. Messrs Geo, n.
Woodin and Hiram McAllister were
appointed Judges, and Mr.. Schroeder
stakeholder, and a start was made.
During the first heat s'Buckskin' did
some fine trotting, her opponent acting
very badly but reaching home considera-
bly, ahead. The second heat was better,
both horses trotting splendidly until
near the home stretch when both broke,
Mr.. Murphy's horse coming up about
half length ahead, thus winning the
money, 'Buckskin," although she lost
the race, did the best clean ta'otting, and
we are confident that in a trotting match
she is far superior to the horse that beat

WESTERN RAIL ROAD MEETING.

A meeting of the friends Of thew estem
Railroad convened at the Court House on
Tuesday evening, and organized by aD-
pointing Mr.. Geo. n. Woodin as Chair
man and Mr.. A NJ Richter Secretary,
Mr.. White was called upon to address
the meeting, and gave it as his opinion

agement of the parties now having the
control of it, it would never amont to any
thing, and urged the necessity of meas
ures being taken to remove MIR. Reed
from his position as President Of the
Road
Mr. s. A. Wood then arose at call
from those present, and strongly urged
the building Of a Lake Shore Road first.
He then gave short account Of his ex-
periences as one of the Committee ap-
pointed to visit the Lake Shore towns,
and stated that the citizens Of those
towns were strongly in favor of that road,
and would do all in their power to furth-
er the project.
He was answered by Mr.. Carl Schmidt,
who showed the inability of the above
towns to lend aid to the project, and re-
ferred especially to Sheboygan, who, he
said, land very truly was not able to
pay the interest on her enormous debt
and iherefore in no position to enter into
another railroad scheme. He closed by
strongly urging those present to vote in
favor of raising the tax, the election for
which was held on the following day.
Mr.. Woodin then addressed the meet
ing, and was followed by other speakers
who were rather divided on the subject,
when the meeting was dismissed.

SAD. The most stricken family in our
Village now is certainly that Of our es-
teemed fellow citizen Professor Vein
schenk. But few weeks ago his bright
and intelligent children were in the full
enjoyment of health, when they were
suddenly taken down, one after another,
with diptheria and scarlet fever, and
three of them died within one week,
while another was thought 10 be On the
point of death, and two more confined
to beds of severe sickness. Through the
timely and untiring exertions,o of Doctors
Simon & Schaller hopes are entertained
that all the children now sick will recover,
and the afflicted parents be spared the
pain of further losses of their dearest
treasurers. We need hardly assure the
bereaved parents Of our most heartfelt
sympathy.

HOW To RESTORE SPECIE PAY.
MERTS

The New York Post, in q talk on
gold and greenbacks, notes approvingly
the fact that in some of the Southern
States, in which United States currency
is in general use, there is a disposition
among business men to unite in substi-
tuting gold coin as the money Of account.
1t says:
"Many planters and merchants who
have large dealings with foreign coun-
tries as well as with this city, and are
anxious for stability in the common
measure Of values, earnestly advocate
the change, and there is now no legal
obstacle in the way. since the Supreme
Court OF the United States sustains con-
tracts for gold.
'TheUnly possible means by which gold
4 an be restored as our currency, with
out some great disaster to trade, is by
substituting it voluntarily in the several
transactions Of trade, and so leaving the
government free to withdraw its paper.
This must be done gradually, but cannot
be done too soon. When any important
part Of the business community shall
have adopted coin as their money Of
account, the banks which they deal will
do the same; their cleariDgs and ex-
changes will be made in gold; and all
their customers will soon adopt the same
plan. Every step of this kind will pre-
pare the way for the substitution OF
compound interest notes for greenbacks
in circulation, and for funding them
ultimately in bonds; and will thus be a
distinct help to the government in final,
ly restoring its credit"
