We cameih sight of The old

near three miles which brought
US near McArthur at which
place we arrived at about6 6

out on the ronte towards Lo.

that they could increase their

in a very short time, aud they
would do so. We had intended
passing over the old road bed
10 Logan but concluded we had
better return by another route
to Gallipolis or in that direc.
ton, and, in the meantime,
make an effort to procure the

several other citizens, who are
all anxious for the road. March

panied by several citizens,
until we passed Glenns or by.

and on to Gallipolis, arriving
here on Wednesday evening
the 22d instant.
Throughout the whole trip
Mr.. Mcleod took very full
notes and he is now engaged
in mapping or profiiing them
for future use, while waiting to
see whether we can obtain the
desired information tn regard
TO The old roadbed. | have not
asked Mr.. Macleod a question
in regard 10 the comparative
merits or cost of the Big and
Little Creek routes, neither has
he expressed an opinion 10 me
on the subject, but says, judg-
Ing by his examination thus far,
that he is satisfied we can get
good and cheap location for our
road. There are two other
through routes and several
small pieces Of routes yet to
examine before he will be
ready to commence the SUR

should be fully conversant with

to have the road in the hands

Of March 6, 1871, IN which he
says: 81 wish 10 enquire if you

In reply to the above | have
asked the gentlemen on what
terms they vonld build and
equip the road. But would it
not be far better and safer for
our own citizens to furnish the
means among themselves to
grade the road, and by that
means own and control it
tn emselves.

Foolish Deaths.

At the banquet to Dickens given by the
New York press, at Delmonieo's. April Is,
1868, there sat at the table besides Dick
ems himself, Henry J. Raymond, George
W. Demers, Henry E. Sweetser and
George Wakeman, all prominent journ4l-
lists, all now lying in their graves
Not one of these men died like hero
ALI but Charles Dickens died young; all
died unnecessarily. Why should young
or middle-aged men die? The Creator
protests against it. He doe not want
them to die. He has emphatioAlly de-
clared that he takes "no pleasure in the
death of him that dieth; but that he
should turn from his wicked way aud
live" All nature shouts dissent
against such exit from earth. Think
of it! Mr.. Raymond falling down
in his room gorged to death. Dickens dy-
ing at eventide while, or soon after, filing
his stomach with food 1t is shameful for
men to die as these men died To speak
plainly it is oowardly. Raymond died
with thirty years of work in him, Dickens
with fifteen or twenty. Neither were over
worked; they were siinply over-fed.
Nearly all our hard thinkers are in some
form gluttous. To be a glutton a man on
ly need to eat at improper hours, or to eat
food which is uuhealthily cooked or..wbile
eating moderately as compared with 9TH
ers, to eat more than his stomach can di.
gest, producing thereby uneasiness in the
bowels, fullness of head, twinges of pain
in legs and feet, sharp flashes of electric
light through the eyes, catarrh. ringing
through the ears, sleeplessness, fre.fulness
dependency, indisposition to society. to
demonstrate that he is gluttonous. When
added to inordinate or improper eating
one comes to chew or smoke tobacco, or to
drink moderately, yet every day, of some
vinous, brewed or distilled liquor, then
doubly certain is it that he is gluttonous
Oyer-work of the brain very seldom ex-
lists. Over-taxation of the stomach is
very common with our thinking men. AS
brain and stomach are organically very
intimate, and SO are functionally sympa-
thetic, over-taxing the latter debilitates
the former. Almost all disorders of the
brain are the consequence or result of the
arrangement of other organ or organs
of none SO frequently as the stomach.
Never has a man died of apoplexy who
kept his stomach healthy. Never one of
