THE TOLEDO WEEKLY BBADE-NAs-
BY's PAPER.-Of the mammoth Week
ly sheets now published, the TOLEDO
BLADE, the organ of Rev. Petroleum V.
Nasby, ranks among the best. Is eight
broad pages are filled with the choicest
reading matter, and in typographical
appearance and general character it has
no superior and few equals.
The rich and racy letters of Petro-
leum V. Nasby are written expressly
for the Blade, and always appear first
in its columns. Nothing in the line of
humorous literature has ever attained
the popularity of these letters,
Mr.. Nasby is now engaged on an orig
inal novel, which will be published in
the Blade during the coming year
These, with other rare attractions in
course of preparation, ought to largely
increase its already enormous circula-
ton.
We will furnish the GAZETTE and the
BLADE one year for $50.

From the Mt. Vernon Republican,
RALLY ron THE RAIL ROAD.
Mount Vernon. o


Oct. 4th. 1869.
WnI. T. Bascons, Esq,
DEAR SIR II am happy to be able
to assure the friends of oar rail road
enterprise that definite arrangements
have at last been effected by which the
construction of the road from Millers-
burg to Nc Vernon viii be secured,
provided the subscriptions for that
purpose are raised of S165, 900. Of
this sum the citizens of Knox county
must raise 100000. About S82, 900
have been already secured. L have said
that the remaining $4,000 would be
obtained before the 10th of this month
when It is proposed to consummate the
agreement, If the requisite amt, be Sc
cured, hope our people will appTe-
eiate the Importance Of this last Op-
pOFtunity of securinga competing rail-
road through our county, aud, by
prompt and liberal subscriptions eua-
bic me to make my promise good. The
extension of the road to Delaware VIII
require S150000 additional subserip-
tions, the greatest part of which the
people of Delaware county have pledg
ed themselves to raise but, first of all
we must raise the Sl65, 900 to secure
the assistance offered towards con-
structing the road to Mount Vernon
The People of Millersburg and Orr
vile are at work, and will raise the re-
naming $65, 900 by the time named.
Immediately after the election, the
final effort will be made in the city and
townships to obtain the remaining part
of our quota, viz. $4,000. The true
friends of our town and county must
take the matter in hand for Of course,
those who are not friends will do moth
ing. They may talk perhaps, but mere
talk will not build a railroad.
Respectfully yours,
r. G. HURD.

South Delaware, where she is prepared
to execute portraits either in crayon or

crayon work may be seen at ]. w.
Lindsey's book store, and as a work of
art viii amply repay. the trouble of an
inspection. 1t is better recommenda-

skill than any words we can use. We
hope she may receive the liberal appre-
citation from the public which she is
clearly deserves.

DELAYED JUsTIcE.-The arrival of the
goddess of justice-the statue we mean
which is to occupy an appropriate place
on the cupola of the new court house
has been delayed by the late tornado IN

ing The contract of manufacturing JUS
tIce bas suffered serious damage. This
we hope will be a satisfactory explana-
tion of the non-arrival Of the goddess
to those who have looked with impa-
tient expectancy for her proper eleva-
tion as the presiding deity of her new,
elegant and imposing temple.

TIE condition of Mr.. Brooks, who
was shot by Swallow at Galena some
days since, was still, at our last advices,
somewhat critical. An effort was made
on yesterday to secure the release of
Swallow on writ of habeas corpus, but
up to the hour Of going to press, we
have not been advised as to the result.
The plea upon which his friends urge
his release is that he was under the in
duence Of insanity when he assaulted
Brooks.

PoMERoY AND ToLEDo.-The Pome-
roy Telegraph states that the projected
railroad from Pomeroy to Toledo is
likely to become a certainty. The line
will pass through Newark and Marion,
and will therefore intersect a portion of
this county. The road should pass
through Delaware, and we have no
doubt the company could be induced to
bring it here if sufficient inducements
were offered.

CONCRETE PAvEMELr.-A citizen of
New York addresses a letter to the
Times in whie1 he pronounces the new
concrete pavement, as it is now being
laid in that city, "the greatest bumbug
and swindle of the age" He says it is
already cut through to the stones at the
corners of the streets where il has been
in use only two months. In wet wealth
er he says it is almost impossible with
mud and in dry it is disagreebIy dusty.
With this experience where the pave
ment has been most thoroughly tested
it would be we'll for western towns to
be cautious about it's extensive intro
duction.
