THE RAILROAD.

In regard to the publication made
lately, seeming to indicate that the
Akron route has been chosen for the
extension to Chicago of the Pitts
burg and Connellsville Railroad, we
are enabled to state, on authority,
that no selection has been made, and
that no preference for any route has
been shown. 1t can be said, how
ever, that the maps of three routes
are in the hands of the engineers of
the company and with the reports
from local authorities along each
line as to their advantages and offers
of help, will be brought under the
consideration Of the joint committee
of the Connellsyille and Baltimore
and Ohio Companies, who will an
nounce their decision during No
or by the 10th of December.
Therefore, the people along every
route still have work to do toward
securing the benefits of this trunk
line, and must not delay in present
ing their strongest arguments. In
short, there still are opportunities
for securing the prize.-Pitts6atrgh

Strange Phenomenon.

A singular and almost incredible
meteorological phenomenon is de-
scribed in the Mobile Register of
November Sd, which gives it on
testimony of several unimpeachable
witnesses. ..-. s. .f
For several days there fell upon a
portion of the Catholic cemetry, on
Stone street, above the Three mile
creek, steady but gentle shower of
rain, though the sky was entirely
clear all the time. For five days a
shower of rain fell without ceasing,
sometimes in quantities not enough
to lay the dust, but at times it rain
ed quite hard. The rain fell upon
an eclosure in which are buried
thirteen of the Lemoine family, and
it fell no where else. Outside of
this enclosure not drop of rain fell
in the five days, and the sky was
bright and clear. The Register says:
"There are so many who can vouch
for the truth of Mr.. Lemoine's
statement, and his character for YER
acity is such, that there can no
longer be any doubt of the fact that
it has been raining for the past five
days on the graves Of his kindred" ;"
The survivors evidently look upon
the occurrence as q special miracle
for the benefit of their departed rel
atiyes. If the phenomenon is sub
stantiated, we may expect u good
deal of scientific dicussion of the
cause. ...... ....

DEMOCRATS GETTING DIsaUsTEO.

q In a large number Of the old re-
liable Democratic counties in north
western Ohio, the Democrats are be-
coming disguised with the admins
tration of their party, and are elect
ing Republicans to office. In Au-
glaize and Henry counties, Republi-
can Sheriffs have been elected; in
Hancock a Republican Treasurer
was chosen at the last election, and
in Wyandot they elected a Repubh-
can County Commissioner. In many
other counties this has been the case,
and In some where the maJUrfu1es
heretofore have been upwards of one
thousand the Democratic majorities
this year have dwindled down to a
mere nominal figure. The fact of it
is the people are getting tired of
Democratic extravaganza and mis-
rule and are strongly inclined to in
augurate a change. Patience has
ceased to be virtue, and we may
look for toppling over of these old
rotten administrations throughout
the State next year which will cause
q shaking among these Democratic
dry bones that will be highly anus
ing. The people are waking up, and
fossilized Democracy had better
take the alarm and stand from
under. -a ri

NATIONAL BANKS.

In recent speech, Senator Trum-
bull declared that the national bank
ing system is not only the best we
have ever had, but that, its privil-
eges made free, it would supply the
country with currency everywhere
the same, and upon the whole, better
than Government greenbacks. The
establishment of free National banks
would at once close the problem of
our national finances; we could fund
the debt at four per cent. interest;
specie payments would be resumed
at the earliest moment practicable,
without unnecessary strain on the
business of the country.

A Country Without Greenbacks

The Overland Monthly tells how
the Mormons manage to get along
without greenbacks.
Hundreds of farmers, living in
reasonably comfortable circum-
stance, and having large families to
clothe and educate, will not see a
dollar in money for years. Such a
farmer wishes to purchase a pair of
shoes for his wife. He consults the
shoemaker, who AYERS his willing
ness to furnish the same for one load
of wood. He has no wood, but sells
a calf for a quantity of ado5es, the
Gdobes for an order on the merchant
payable In goods, and the order for
a load of wood, and straightway the
matron is shod. Seven watermel-
ons purchase ticket of admission
to the theatre. He pays for the tu-
ition of his children seventy-fve
cabbages per quarter. The dress
maker receives four squashes per
day. He settles his church dues in
sorghum molasses. Two loads of
pumpkins pay his annual subscrip-
tion to the newspaper. He buys a
treatise on Celestial Marriage" for
a load of gravel, and bottle of
soothing sirup for the baby for a
bushel of string beans. In this
primitive method, until the advent
OF the railroad, nine-tenths of the
territory was conducted. And even
now, in the more remote settlements
a majority of all transactions are of
this character.

NO SIGN OF PEACE.

There now appears to be less
chance for peace than at any time
since the war began. The move
ment of Russia cannot but be the re-
suit of careful consideration, and
will ut least serve to stimulate to
still further effort the French, who
are already sufficiently encouraged
by their recent successes. But Eng
land cannot quietly submit to have
Russia abrogate the treaty of Paris,
and altogether the good hopes of
peace entertained a week ago must
be postponed until war shall desc
late all Europe.
