A party of gentlemen in a saloon, dis
putting over the question whether the
American ~ystem Of treating, or the Eu-
ropean system ofnot treating, was prefer
able, couldn't settle the matter by talk
ing, SO they went to work testing it by
practice. First, ca Gu man took drink
by himself. Then each man invited
sin gle friend to drink. After that each
single friend returned the compliment.
And finally each man in the party
there were six OF them-asked all the
rest to drink. When all that was accom-
plished. not a soul in the room could tell
where the discussion originated or what
it was about.

GOVERNOR PROCLAMATION.
Throughout the northern part of this
State, fires have been raging in the
woods, for many days, spreading desola-
ton on every side. 1t is reported that
hundreds of families have been rendered
homeless by the devouring element, and
reduced to utter restitution, their entire
crops having been consumed. Their
stock has been destroyed and their farms
are but blackened deserts Unless they
receive instant aid from portions of the
State not visited by this fearful calamity,
they must perish.
The telegraph also brings the terrible
news that large portion of the city of
Chicago is destroyed by a confagration
which is still raging, Many thousands of
Of people are thus reduced to penury,
stripped of their all, and are destitute OF
food and shelter Their sufferinos will
be intense and many may perish unless
provisions are at once sent to them from
the surrounding country. They must be
assisted NOW.
In the awful presence of such calami
ties, the people of Wisconsin will not be
backward in giving assistance to their
afflicted tellOw-men
I tn refore recommend that immediate
organized effort be made in every local.

the sufferers by this visitation, and sug

Churches and to the various Benevolent

Immediately to the work of organ

Extension of the Potomac and
MartinSburg Railroad.

Hon. Chos. !. Fdmkner, President, De-.
You know that by the baltimore aud
Ohio Railroad the distance from Martins
burg to Piedmont, at the mouth of Georges
Creek, the very centre of our semi btu
minous Coal Trade, is one hundred and six
miles. Your nearest point to the coal at
Frostburg, is eighty-uine miles From
Martinsburg, however, to Piedmont, by
way of Bloomery Gap, in Hampshire coun-
ty, is about eighty-five miles, a sa0ing of
a distance, oUer the b. IL o. H. H. line Of
t,ceHiy-ORe miles. The rapid increase of
our coal trade, at even the present cost Of
transportation, with a demand always ex-
ceeding the supply,) of course, justifes
the conclusion that additional lines Of
transportation are becoming necessary, and
that every miles lesseniug of railway
transportation will add fresh stimulus to
the demand for this semi btuminous coal
The original projection of the Alexandra,
I.3udoun and Hampshire Railroad was has.
ed upon this theory, and the construction
of that road is now in progress to Win
chester, only nineteen miles from Bloom
cry Gap. Whether an extension of your
road to that point aud consolidation with
the Alexandra road thence to the Coal
Fields at Piedmont, deserves serious con-
sideration Would not this enable you to
transfer the shipment of large tonnage in
coal from Cumberland to Wliiamspori, aud
/ the canal, or enable you to carry coal by
/ Uagcrstown aud the Western Maryland
/ Railroad to Baltimore, with even 0dtiitiOn-
. al saving of distance? Lastly Your dis
tauce from New York, via Harrisburg, is
about one hundred and eighty-fve miles,
70 which add the eighty five miles, TO Pied
mont, and you have a distance from the
Coal Fields to New York of two hundred
aud seventy miles. Putting your coal ton
mage at two cents per mile aud value Of
coal in cars, at one dollar per ton, it would
Gust about six dol.rs and half in New
. Irk-if transported without traus-ship-
mrut
