be fully assured that he has been con-
stantly laboring towards that end, with
. perseverance that few men exercise in
any calling; and we bslisve, as he does,
that his efforts will yet be crowned with
success.
Several things have conspired that
have rendered it difficult to get capital
lists to take hold Of this enterprise, but
these Obstacles promise to soon cisap-
pear. We have had no other road on
this, or the opposite, side ofthe Missis-
sippi, for the Upton road to connect
with when built, or to become interes
ted in it, and the project itself was alto
gether too modest for the progressive
times-proposing only to build q road
from this city to Auamosa, in Jones
county, q distance Of about 50 miles, in
stead of making it, a. it should have been
at first, project to extend up through
this State and Minnesota to St Paul. or
line leading directly to that city. We
may now regard it certain that we are
to have q connection on the east side of
the Mississippi, opposite this city, with
the r., r. 1. 4 st. l. r. r., which to
us will be almost equivalent to three
as it gives US direct rival line to Chica-
go, ve.y favorable connection with
the Peoria and Rock Island Railroad,
now being ironed, and which Is about
the same as Pennsylvania Central in
terest' and St Louis outlet even more
desirable than the others so far as our
road north is concerned. These advan-
tages will secuIe the capital to iron snd
stock the Upton road, if we manage
properly. Anoher matter which will of
great help to the Enterprises the law
passed last winter allowing towns and
townships to vote aid to railroad enter
prises and which has lately been sus-
tanned by our Supreme Court.
| The idea now seems to be to extend
the line to connection with some line
running to St Paul, then work up the
necessary aid along the route and it Is
confidently believed-in fact the assur-
ance is already given by responsible
| parties that the iron and roll
ing stock will be forthcoming. We
need hardly add here, what we have
always believed, that this is the best
project of the kind yet started in the
State, and will pay better for the invest
ment than any from river city. be-
cause i. will run through the choicest
part of the State as the statistics of the
counties traversed, heretofore published
! abundantly proves, and taken as pant
of the r., r. l. & st l.. r. r. or an
| extension of that line from this city
north to ST Paul (which it is quite like
ly, it may become) it will make one Of
the most profitable thoroughfares in the
West Nus. journal.

The Mitrullcua, about which 50
much has been said Of late, is Il
light gun with 81 barrels, and in
addition 10 what VIC hive rubi!ah-
cd heretofore, is thus further dc.
scribcd by an exchange: ~.
The 81 cartridges, intended for
one charge, arc contained in small
box. a steel plate, with correspon-
ding holes, is placed on tho open
box, which is then reversed, and
the cartridges fall point foremost
into their respective holes. They
arc prevented from falling through
by rims 1T their bases. The loaded
plate is then intiQduccd, Into, the
brccch slot and when the brcech is
closed by a lever, number Of steel
pins, pressed by spiral springs, arc
only prevented from striking tho
percussion arrangement in the car
ridges by II plato in front Of them.
When this case is moved slowly by
i handle, the cartridges are fired
one BY one, If the plate be with
drawn rapidly they follow each
other so quickly thnt their discharge
is all but simultaneous. -.
1t is thought by some that tho
invention is better adapted to forts
or other permanent situations, than
for field service.
