The Valley Railroad,

On Wednesday last the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company subscribed one million of
dollars to the Valley railroad. The city of
Baltimore had previously subscribed 81 900, 900
on condition that ST 200, 900 be procured from
the counties and towns in the Valley of Vir-
ginia and $1,000, 900 more from persons and
corporations able to pay. The Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company voted the million that
the last-named condition might be complied
with. There remains now to be subscribed on
" $500 900 to make up the capital stock OF
$4,000, 900, which is the basis required, as the
county of Rockbridge has subscribed $4OO, 600,
Botetourt 100000, Roanoke 100000, and
the town of Staunton 100000.
1t is only necessary now for Augusta to vote
the proposed subscription of $1,000 to insure
the construction of the Valley Railroad. She
would be acting unwisely not to do so, tor she
would be more benefited by its construction
than any county along the line. 1t would be
burning shame if she should cause the defeat
of this great improvement by failing to vote
the subscription proposed. Her name, now
honored wherever mentioned, would, in that
event, become by-word of reproach. She
should vote the subscription with unanlmlty.

THE SHOOTING OF HYLTON.
Extraordinary Revelation of Shortsfght
edness.

William G.. Lansing was called for
trial yesterday, at the Municipal Crimi
nal Court, on an indictment charging
him with an attempt to murder Theo>
dore ID. Hylton. w Ell. L. Barnes,
who volunteered as Lansing's counsel
when he was first arrested. appeared
for him yesterday, and District Attor-
ney Byrne appeared for the prosecu-
ton.
Hylton testified that on the 30th of
May last, he was walking along Mont
gomery street, between Clay and Com>
mercial, near J. .G. Steele's drug store
when he heard the report of a pistol.
felt stinging sensation on the left
cheek and tearing sensation under
the right eye. He staggered but did
not fall. and was supported into the
drug store by two men. and after his
wonnd had been dressed, he was taken
home. Did not see who fired at him.
and only Lansing once before at his Office
IN reference to some article that had
been published about q prostitute in
Virgins, City Hylton further testified
that he was the proprietor publisher,
and editor of Our 4nazeppa, and had
correspondents in this State and Neva-
da, furnished him with general news.
Detective johnson testified that he
heard of Hylton being shot. Saw no
shooting. Saw Mr.. Lansing on Mont>
gomery street after the shooting. Lans-
ing said he had pistol. He pulled two
deringers out of his pocket, one loaded
and the other discharged. He said he did
not care to talk about the matters and
did not admit that he bad done the
shooting.
e An old French flower vendor was
next introduced by the prosecution.
He stated that he was on 2lst street
when the shooting transpired, and con-
sequently knew nothing of the matter
Mr.. Byrne said he had been unable to
find any witnesses, and that was all he
could offer.
Judge Lake said it was surprising
matter that man could be shot down
on Montgomery street at an hour when
it was crowded. and not a witness be
found who could testify TO the shooting,
and who could come forward spontane-
ously and give his testimony.
Mr.. Barnes said he could make that
clear. At least from so to rs persons
saw the shooting, but when they learned
who had been shot, they turned away
and forgot that they had seen it.
Judge Lake said it was an extraordi>
nary case, and as it had been presented
he could not do otherwise than to In
struct the jury to render verdict Of
acqnittai, which they accordingly did.

At the request of the writer, we pub
lish the following communication


DALLAS, OREGON,
Nov 28th, 1870.
EDITOR OREGON REPUBLICAN.
Dear Sir I'm your issue of the 26th
ult., see what purport, to be report
of Sanitary Meeting of the Citizens of
Dallas. In that part Of the "garbled
string" that alludes to myself, | desire
10 report correctly what transpired,
and the connection in which it did
transpire. The meeting was discussing
the proprieay OF indefinitely suspending
all business in our midst, giving as a
reason for so doing, that it would take
from our neighbors one great induces
ment that would bring them to our viii
lage; and one speaker went so far as to
say, the u. s. mail should be stopped" !"
for fear the small pox would be intro
duced through the mail matter. In
this connection, | suggested to the
Chairman, would it not be better, and
more effectual, if the object were to
prevent all persons from coming
amongst US, to report as true, the exist
ence Of ten cases of small pox in our
town,
"It is worthy of note," Mr.. Editor,
that the Meeting, " together with the
Secretary's Report" was practical
joke" perpetrated upon the outsiders by
some OF our s0aggish citizens.
Yours truly, DR. SITES

Pure Air In Churches.

Architects, building committees,
trustees and sections ought to have
some one to remind them perpetually.
that fresh air is vital necessity in
churches. Better do without almost
anything else. A living gospel ought
never to be preached In a dead atmo~
phere. Give us plenty of fresh air, and
the preachers will preach better. the
brethren will pray better, the people
will sing better, and all our meetings
will be better attended, and followed by
better consequences. Give each one of
US our forty cubic inches of fresh air
for every Inspiration, aud for every
minnie of the service the eighteen pints
TO which we are each justly entitled.
according to the doctors, and we shall
complain less Of langour. headaches,
poor preaching, and dull meetings. and
be in less danger Of backsliding for we
devoutly believe that fresh air is a
means Of grace. -Methodist
The above corresponds so we'll with
our own feelings in regard to the sub>
ject treated. that we feel bound to give
it to the public here. and think the rule
ought to be strictly applied to the
churches in Dallas, for IL is truth that
some have already become sick from
bad cold caught in that way.
