A MEETING Of the Directors Of the
Evansville, Carmi & Padueah Rail-
road Company will be held at the Of
flee of the President, ROBERT A.
HILL, on Thursday evening next.
This meeting is Of great importance,
and it is expected that every Director
will be present. At the meeting of
the stockholders for the election of
Directors, it was understood that af-
ter an organization Of the Company
had been effected, aud the papers
properly filed, and other business of a
preliminary character transacted.
that another meeting would be called
for the purpose of hearing a re-
port from the officers Of the Com
pany and determining subsequent
proceedings. Since then the officers
Of the Company have made a hasty
survey of routes into Southern Illi-
nois, and the Directors will, we pre-
sumo, in accordance with this under
standing at the first meeting Of the
Stockholders, call that body together
again and lay before it their plans for
building the road and suggesting the
route in contemplation. This matter
will, no doubt, come up at the meet
ing Of the Directors on Thursday
evening.
1t is especially desirable. in order
that the new road may be successful,
and that the money OF the people may
not be squandered, that the utmost
caution be exercised on the part of
the officers of the road to secure har-
mony among the stockholders and
unanimity, as far as possible, among
the people. 1t will require all the
efforts of our citizens, both in a pri-
vate aud public capacity, backed by
sound and judicious management of
their subscriptions, to build the road.
The enterprise is of great magnitude,
and a failure to complete it, when
once fairly undertaken, will result in
great pecuniary loss to our people, as
we'll as prove disastrous to the future
growth of our city.
We hope. therefore, that every Di-
rector will be at the meeting on
Thursday evening, and that a full,
free and harmonious action will be
the result. A railroad into Southern
Illinois we must have and at the ear
liest practical moment.

ST.. LOUIS, June 29-The Repub7i-
can has a special from Green River
City, Wyoming, dated the 18th, which
says: One of the members OF the cele-
brated Powell exploring party has
just reached this point. having escaped, +,
after incredible hardships. out of the
Canon Of the Colorado. He reports
that the whole party, excepting him
self, perished while attempting 10
cross the rapids. He had crossed
above, and from the west bank wit
messed the frightful disaster which
left him alone five hundred miles from
the nearest settlement, without sup
plies and almost without hope. Not
daring to leave the stream lest he
should get lost, he assembled the bank
to this point, the crossing ofthe Pacific
Road, where he has received such at
tenfion as he requires.
To this the Republican appends the
following editorial note: The fact
that the dispatch fails to give the
name of the survivor of the expedi-
tion leads US to hope that the state
ment may have been told by some
half. starved hunter, who wished TO
enlist sympathy. Undeniably, it is
possible, even perhaps probable. If
half the stories of travellers are true,
the rapids Of the Colorado can cnlv
be crossed by birds.
A Denver dispatch says two hum
dred thousand cross ties for the Den
yer Pacific Railroad have been f0ated
down the Cache Lepondre River, and
that one hundred thousand more are
coming down. The contract for ties
for the first sixty five miles Of the
road viii be completed July >.

DUBLIN, June ga meeting was

prominent lawyer, made a speech. He
said: The motto of all true Irishmen
ought to be "Bide your time, put
your trust in God, and keep your
powder dry" If the British Govern
u4ent persisted in keeping these men
lncarcerated, all its professions Of
conciliation would be useless.
Mr.. Williams, Of Dungargan, made
an impassioned speech H. declared
that the Feniah prisoners would rot
accept mercy; they demanded justice
from the Ministery. If the latter re-
fused 1t, the blood be upon their own
heads. He would not. however ad-
vocate a resort to the sword, for that
doctrine was now out Of time.

LONDON, June 29.-The Star to-

departure from New York of Colonel
Ryan's expedition, brings the circum-

OF claims now pending between the
United States and Great Britain. 1t
says we are interested in the United
States Government In this matter.
Her neutrality laws must be thor
oughly and effectually enforced, or
she will lose the hold she has gained
on public opinion, which insures the
fair consideration of the Alabama
claims. The Alabama escaped un-
armed, with an ordinary merchant
mans crew on board, and we are
justly held to have incurred a high
degree of responsibility for the con-
sequences. The departure of party
of 500 men from New York harbor.
as far as can be judged from present
accounts Of the affair, appears to be
an infraetion of neutrality just as fla
grant as the escape of the Alabama,
and one which could much more
easily have been prevented.

We were shown a model of the Eureka Corn
Planter, a very ingenious machine, patented by
Clark & Fisher, of Illinois. For cheapuess and
durability, it stands unparalleled, and can be
sold at price that every farmer can reach. 1t
is light and of one-half the draught Of other
planters. 1t has an adjustable hanged frame,
so to deposit the corn u uniform depth in un-
even and varied qualities of soil. Corn can be
planted any depth desired, and is covered by
fange plOws which take loose mellow earth
from the inside of the furrow. 1t has Golfers
which clear away all trash and top growth,
and is followed by steel shovel plows, making
wide and clear burrows. 1t scatters the corn
sufficient TO give each stalk abundance of earth
to produce a healthy and luxuriant growth.
The wheels do not pass over the planted corn
as done by other planters, but run directly
outside not to press the earth and cause it
to attract heat and dry out This machine is
claimed 10 be perfect by all experienced farm
ers who have examined it. ANY blacksmith
and wagon maker can manufacture this plant
