From an occasional correspondent
If you, and the readers of the APP
PEAL, win examine the diagram of a
road to be called the kansas, Spring.
field and Memphis Railroad, you or
they viii discover at once its impor-
lance 10 Notwithstanding to your
city a country and trade that will be
free from the eXhausting influence of
cross lines of roads; YOU will draw a
new region to Memphis, Of at least
M hundred thousand square miles,
rich in cereals, cotton, minerals, fruit
and grapes; the latter, the Concord, is
one of the ''best in the world" In
connection with the Memphis and
Charleston Railroad, it will furnish
the shortest line to Washington CITY:
it will converge an arterial system of
rail at Memphis. The Convention is
a great success, and accomplished all
that the most sanguine friends of the
road could hope for. Much credit is
to be accorded Gel. ], W. Eldridge,
formerly Of your city, now Of SPRING
field, for his untiring energies. In
fact, he is n of the fathers of the
project. Delegates were in attendance
from all counties on the line of road
from Springfield to Kansas CITY, and
were fully competent to assure the
Convention of large subscriptions
from their respective counties. Col.
Richardson, OF Green county, was Sc
lected as temporary President of the
Kansas City and Springfield branch
of the road. b. b. WaddeIl, ESQ. Of
Memphis, performed faithfully the du-
ties entrusted to his charge, and won
golden opinions by his prompt and
vigorous action IN the details of his
mission. The Kansas City and Spring
field end Of the line under the man
agenent Of Col. Richardson, one Of
ahlest men in Missouri, will soon be
Iii course Of construction. Let Mem
phis profit by the energetic action of
southwest Missouri, and promptly
build her end Of the line. The Con-
VentiOn adjourned to meet in Kansas
City on the 18th of October prox.
After the adjournment of the Con-
vention a grand ball was given to the
delegates, and was participated in by
hundreds of the bellies and beaux of
this region. we have never been at

1T is a handsome compliment to the

claiming the resurrection of the dead.
Whether the world believes or not,
Swayback Beti is redeemed and Moody
immortal. 1t is said that Moody sleeps
in a saw mill, is often e n near the
old cotton factory, and that his ter
rors have been such, and he is the
cause OF such unexampled terror to
others, that he is as timid as a hare,
and flies before the coming dawn to
conceal himself among the drift wood
piled along the banks of Wolf and
Hatehie rivers.
If there be foundation for these
vague stories the doctors can tell.
There may be crime in taking, but
not in restoring life. The law does
not recognize the functions Of galvan-
ism, and if the executiOners have been
cheated and the majesty of the law
defied, no crime has been committed
in restoring the dead criminal to life
which is more intOlerable than death.
