WzArazR BUSINESS, ErC.-Yesterday was what
might most appropriately be termed . doubtful

and even the sky looked gloomy. Toward noon
however, it cleared of, and the glorious sunshine
came forth and beauti6-d all nature. The evening
was lovely weather, and as such seemed to be APP
preciated.
Business was not active. but Of course it vas not
expected To- be so ON the proverbially dull day
Monday. There were few arrivals, aud those that
did come to the wharf were not O'erladen. The

The Cincinnati Times saws:

1t is stated on good authority that there
are two roads under way from Mavsville,
through Kentucky. to the Southwest, and
that the same company is likely soon to
and Richmond via Maysville and Chatta-
nooga to New Orleans, and even to San
Diego by the Southern Pacific. The same
men are at the bottom of the whole scheme,
including the grant made the other day OF
land to the Southern Pacific.
This looks like leaving Cincinnati far to
the right of the great trans-continental
trunk line and placing Maysvil!e in very
happy situation.
Much depends upon the development

iects Of the railway kings of the country
