HENDERSON, KY, Oct. 6, 1870.
This Company held their Annual
Meeting of Stockholders to day. The
old Board Of Directors were all re-
elected, namely: Gen. J. T. Boyle,
John II. Barrett, E. G.. Sebree, j. A.
Reiiz, 2. Senonin. P. B. Matthews,
Thos Green. Judge VIM. Bradley
and w. j. Marshall. There was en-
tire unanimity and entire harmony,
with the exception that the stock of
Evansville was voted against Mr..
SemoBin, who had been nominated
under the contract by the American
Contract CompaDy-the builders of
the road-some exception was taken,
but the whole meeting went off with
harmony and good feeling.
The report of Gen. Boyle and of
Mr.. j. NJ. Byers. Chief Engineer.
shows that eighty nine per cent. of all
the work has been performed, leaving
only eleven per cent. to do.
1t is now certain that the E.,
H. & N. r. r. will be completed in
January, 1871, and that Evansville
and Nashville. and Chicago and Mo-
bile will be connected By a direct line
in the Spring of 1871.
THE POCKET AND PAN HANDLE
ROUTE will do a good business. Gin
cinnati and the whole South will have
another route for their business in
1871, and there need be no blockade.
Remember the Pocket AND PAN
HANDLE ROUTE, 1871.

public the process by which Bailiff
Corson was enabled to walk fifteen
hundred and ninety miles IN tlceaty-
three consecutive days. as taxed up and
certified to under Sheriff Miller's
official signature? Or how the

ceeded in walking one hundred
and Jffty-si.r miles in one day. Or
how that dashing equestrian, Mace
Newman, achieved the wonderful
feat of riding fee hundred and eighty.
eight miles IN one ddyl All Of which

Nh. HENDRICKS, in his speech, on
Wednesday evening, was much
troubled about the bloated bond
holder. Mr.. Hendricks is one of the
most prominent managers of one Of
the Indianapolis banks. We presume
his bonds give him no uneasiness.
He cuts off the coupons without
trouble, aud cashes them at the Treas
ury of the government when they fall
due. We suspect that the gentleman's
principal trouble grows out Of bis in
ability to get as masy bonds as he
wants.

"A writer in French journal tells a
rather hard story Of Mehemet Ali, in illustra-
ton of his nice sense of justice. Making a
tour of his provinces, in great state and with
a cavalry guard, he was stopped by an old
woman, who threw herself at his feet, Your
Highuess," said she, some of your soldiers

and won't pay me,
"Why won't you pay herr demanded Me-
hemet Ali Of the soldier.
Master" said he, "this woman lies; she
has sold me no milk, aud owe her nothing"
oYou swear by Allah that you speak the
truth 2" said the Pacha then to the woman
"Yes, swear it,"
And you as well2' said he to the soldier.
"Yes, swear it,"
avery we'll" said the Pacha. Then
turning to his guard, he added with perfect
composure, take this man and open his
stomach"
The Pacha's order was obeyed, and the
milk was found The soldier had just drunk IT,

his journey.

Fred closed the story-book reluctantly, and
took his grammar, wishing that his mother
would not bother him so he knew he had
time enough"
Presently Mrs Lawrence left the room,
feeling very much troubled about Fred's bad
habit and wishing that he could be induced
to break it of before he became a man.
Knowing that God only could give him the
strength and disposition to do so, she went
to her own room, and kneeling down, prayed
to this effect.
That day gentleman visited the school,
and, after listening with apparent pleasure to
various exercises by the scholars, the princi-
pal requested him to talk to the boys a little
while, He did so, and interested them very
much by relating some anecdotes of his own
school-lile One Of these incidents was the
means by Gods blessing, of curing Fred's
habit. It seemed to Fred that the gentleman
must have known what his bad habit was, or
he could not have said anything so suited to
his case The gentleman said that one day
he was stopped in the street by very shabby
