THE CARM1 RoAD.-We are

THE CARMI RoAD.-We are IN
formed that Chief Engineer Hartwell
and his CORPS of assistants have about
completed the survey of one route to
Carmi, and will probably reach that
place tonight, or at all events by to-
morrow night. The distance from
Evansville to the middle of Wabash
River, is very small fraction over
twenty FIVE miles, and the deepest cut
at any point on the road is near
Dykes mill, short distance from
town, and is fifty-eight feet.
The people of white County will
vote again on the 14th of this month,
on the question of subscribing one
hundred thousand dollars to this rail-
road, and it is hoped that it will carry
this time. But if it does not, the
question will not be allowed to rest
idly. By the law in Illinois, as we
understand, fifty voters can call for
an election to take stock; and the
friends of the road are determined
that "If at first they don't succeed.
they will try, try again" The people
in favor of the donation are working
hard, and it is thought the subscrip
ton will be ordered.
Robert Hill. President of the road,
will leave for Carmi this morning, on
business connected with this enter
prise.

A SOLID STREEF.-When the work
men commenced digging on Eighth
Street, between Main and Locust, for
the purpose of laying the Street Rail
road track, the street was found to be
very solid, and attracted the atten-
ton of many citizens. This square
was improved by putting about six
teen inches of gravel upon it year
or two ago. and it had become so
solid and compact that it was difficult
to get a pick through it. IF all our
graveled streets pack down = as
solid as this square. they will be fully
equal 70, if lot better. than the bowl
dered thorougbfares. We notice this
matter because our citizens are deeply
interested in the various street i'm
proYements that are row being tried
in our city.

THE WHY.-Much ado having been
made in regard to the construo-
ton of sidewalks, in which the con-
tractor has been "hauled over the
Goals several times, it appears, &C
cording to the contractors explaua-
ton, that it is not his fault that the
orders of the Council have not been
filled. He says that he has to get his
orders from the Mayor, and that off
GER failing to furnish him with the
orders, he can do nothing. He has
been waiting several days for the
necessary authority, while there are
miles of sidewalks to be made aud
repaired, that have been ordered By
the City Council for weeks, and even
months. We hope that the Mayor
will furnish the contractor with the
documents" and let the work be
done at once. The people living in
the suburbs want navigable walks to
their residences.

The Sheriff did as requested, and
when the Tarascon landed yesterday
evening, he arrested woman named
Susan Clarke, on the charge of drown
ing her child. The terrible crime
was committed, it seems, about four
O'Clock yesterday morning, when the
boat was near Steyensport, and the
guilty woman thrust her child, aged
about four years. into the privy vault.
and it fell into the river and was
drowned. She was detected by anoth-
er woman who was on board, and who
informed on the guilty woman.
Susan Clarke took passage at Louis.
