ri &Pacihe and Mississippi &MissOuFi
River Airline Interests aIe as fol-
lows.
Owing 70 the adoption Of he lower,
or most feasible and practicable
route" by the @. III. a P. Road, it will
not in any way, interfere with the NJ.
& N. r. A. i. until both roads cross
the North Missouri rOad, from thence
20 the Missouri river, the lines are so
close to each other, that two roads
running in parallel in such close prOx-
unity will be found unnecessary and
almost suDerfiuOus. We would there
fore suggest that wheu both roads are
completed to the North Missouri
Road, that the two roads unite upon
one route TO the Missouri river, thus
saving millions OfdOIlars, and accom-
'plishing every object and subscribing
every purpose that both lines could do.
We commend a consideration of this
plan to our Quincy friends, knowing
positively as we do that where now,
they seem to be expecting millions OF
dollars for the @. NJ. & p. Road they
will only receive a few hundred
thousand. ~ e

In hurried visit to Peru this week,
we noted many valuable improve
ments on the way.
DIR. Mathews has opened a large
farm about two miles this side Of
Honey creek, the fencing in of which
has changed the road for four or FIVE
miles to Peru.
Mr.. w. w. Smith has built a large
house on his farm which corners on
DR.. Mathews farm.
We noticed three other new build
ings on the road but did not learn to
whom they belonged.
Many new houses have been built
in Peru since last January. The Nor
NAL School building has been mate
rally changed. The roof has been
raised and a cupoIa and bell has been
added, and the grounds fenced.
We were pleased to note these inn
provements rs evidences of the pros
perity Of the town and its citizens.
Peru is backed by one Of the finest,
richest and best settled portions of our
county, and when the Trunk Road is
completed to this point it will infuse
new life and quicker blood into the
arteries OF fts growing commerce.
On u return home by the way Of
London, the most prominent features
noticeable was the big cOrnields of
heavy loP-eared corn I; many large
ricks Of wheat and oats, and some
few fields Of grain i'm the shock; and
last, though not least, the large new
dwelling Of Mr.. Winters, near Lon
don. This, when completed, viii
make one Of the best dwelling houses
in the county; il Is already Enclosed.
