ALFRED S. HoRsLEY, Dear SIR
When you paid us visit at our last
Railroad Barbecue, at this place, in July,
wepromised to keep you posted in re-
gard to what was going on down here in
Hickman, upon affairs generally, and
more particularly upon the subject Of
the Duck River Valley Railroad. Ow-
ing to business engagements, and other
duties, we have not been able to COM
ply with the promise as promptly as we
should The Executive Committee of
the Duck River Valley Railroad met at
this place on the Sth inst. All the men,
bers were present with the exception Of
one No particular business was before
the Committee, but the general pros
poets and progress made in obtaining
subscriptions were discussed and con-
sidered, and the amounts subscribed
were encouraging. The Commissioners
have amended their charter by obtain
ing permission to extend their road on
the east of Columbia, up the Duck River
Valley, in the direction of ShelbyvilIe,
and on the Chattanooga Road, and then
to the coal of the Cumberland Noun
tains in Grundy county. No action or
vigorous steps have been taken here yet
in the way of canvassing this county,
but there will be soon. All our people
need is little stirring up occasionally,
on this subject, to make it n success.
The Committee directed the publishing
of the pamphlet prepared and
drawn up by Col. FALCoNNET, on the
subject of Narrow Gauge Roads, and
more particularly the Duck River Val
ley Road. and ordered twenty-five hum
dred to be printed for distribution
among the people of the counties along
on the line. 1t is very exhaustive, and
takes in nearly everything that can be
said Oh this character OF roads, in man.
nerthat shows his familiarity and thor
ough knowledge of the subject he is
dealing with. l am well satisfied that
it will contribute largely TO The success
of this enterprise, as well As open up
light generally on this subject. We
hope, AMI do not doubt, but: that at an
early day work will be commenced on
this road, from the indicat ions before
us, in this and adjoining counties. /
see already that your county has taken
steps for submitting proposition to-
wards building it TO the county line.
We will as quickly beprepare,1 to bring
it TO The county site here as your will he
in bringing it from Columbia tor the di-
viding line, and Their we are sur that it
will he only matter of time in carry
ing it through TO Johnsonville. We
are aware that this road will be Of great
importance to Hickman county, hut at
the same time we are aware that j: will
be equally as great to Maury ai1G Co.
lumbia. No better opportunity ~ of
cred to make your beautiful little city

on the other, what is to prevent herr

within twelve years. Our people are
aware what this road will do for them,
and they are determined to act upon the
the opportunity offered. As this IL the
absorbing topic here, have devoted
more space to the matter than Iperhaps
would have done otherwise. Assuming
that ws had this road built, these hot
days Of August, how many of the de-
pressed and down trodden sons and
daughters of old Maury, whitening now
under the heat of reeking sun, and
equally parched and sufOcated by the
heated dusbof limestone, would be here
in the cool, gniet shades of Beaver Dam,
shaking their thirst at the ever memoir
able Ash, or bathing their fevered tenn
pies in the crystal stream that gushes
forthlalong the spout, or trough springf
Think of it, ye who seeking cool places
in the shade, with the thermometer at
from 90 to 100 deg, and then you will
ask why Is this road not builtf for not
only would you of old Maury visit 1t
again, but hundreds Of others would
hear of its charms and pleasures, and a
Saratoga would at once spring up,
where now solitude only remains, and
these places where once mirth, wit, beau
ty and pleasure were wont to gather in
joyous groups, would again resound
with life, light, and happiness. But in
stead of all this, old man CAUGHRAN
speaks of buying Beaver Dam because 1t
is good site for tan yard.
Now have spoken so much Of the
Railroad that have scarcely room fol-
anything more to write, but nothing
has transpired recently that would inter
est the outside world. Two old men
had them little fight at Old Vernon
not long since, but neither were hurt,
and will have to answer the State OF
