0arksvilis sad Western RAILROAD.

Editor Herald: Business calling me
to the eastern portion of the count, last
~ees, and being in the close ueightor-
mood OF the above road, I concluded to
90 down on Same in company with David
Allen Esq, aud see with my own eyes
whether there was any truth iu the re
ports occasionally heard about Troy, that
sotnc work was being done on this road
frankly confess that was surprised to
eco the amount Of work done and the
number Of hands at work. 1 learned
from Messrs. Mckenzie and La,ley that
there were nearly three hundred hands,
including choppers, sho,elcrs and scra.
pers. all busy at work, besides an Exca
vator, which is a great curiosity aud
especially adapted for grading on level
plain or bottom, such as said road runs
over. This machine 10 on four wheels,
is drawn by eight males, ond has on ele-
vator which carries the dirt from the
plow and deposits it on the track. am
told that With the excavator they have
made nearly q mile Of road IN one day in
this county. The work con be done for
about 6 cents per yard, perhaps less.
The grading is all done from B j.
Cookies field to south of McLains creek,
and looks remarkably we'll. Itis thrown
up from two and half to four feet, is
above highest water, and is perfectly
straight. was on that part Of the
work aud saw that much myself I also
learned that some twenty odd miles of
grading between Clarksvi.lc ani Oar.
denne we're done, and that the entire
work will be done and the cars running
by January lst, 1878 I would be glad
to think 30, but when our sanguine
friends Of the Bluff have had as much
experience in railroad promises as We
have had, perhaps they will not be so
rash in their predictions.
Now, Mr.. Editor, in concluding this
article, l think | properly represent the
views of the rejecting men Of the county
when cay that no good reason exists
why we should not have two ralroans in
this county; by so doing every section
would be accommodated, and We could
move forward in the great work of de
velopiug our county and adding to it's
wealth and population. Therefore | say
hurrah for bo,h roads. B.

A Suit for Slander.
f. G. Cake vs. the Troy dispatch.

The charges that have been 10 per-
'oistently preferred against MIR F. G
sCake, County Clerk, by j. h, Knox
shrough the Dispatch, have eliminated in
q suit for SANDER, and the damages laid
at $4,000. The suit is brought on the
charges aud specifications published in
that paper of the 4th inst, made, it is
supposed, by Knox, but which are pub
iisbcd without his signature, thus placing
the responsibility on DR.. Mudd, the pub
Usher. Mr. Cake claims that the charges
made heretofore over the signature Of j
r. Knox we're of such q character that.
he could not successfully bring suit
against him, although he would have pre-
ferrcd that course. His object 10 to clear
himself of the stigma thus attached to
his name, by forcing the authors to prove
their accusations, which he is confident
they will fail in.
We are glad to see Mr.. Cake taking
this rove, because, in the first place, it
shows his consciousness Of innocence,
and that he courts fair and impartial
investigation of his official actions; and
seconaly, because it will be the means Of
putting a stop to the disgraceful contro
versy that is damaging the whole county
We have before expressed our belief
that Mr.. Cake was innocent of these
accusations. and the course he has now
taken confirms us in that belief 1t at
least shows that he does not shrink from
the public gaze, or wish to hide any er.
rors that he may have committed during
his oficial life.
We would rather have seen the suit
brought against the party preferring the
charges, but as no name was signed to
them it necessarily had to be brought
- acai,-t the proprietor of the DisPoth h.
We do not wish our con temporary any
harm, but VIC would like to see Mr.. Cake
come out of this fight with his skirts
clear, for a mans character is worth
more TO him than anything else in life
Not wishing to condemn any one unjustly
we anxiously await the trial, as do the
friends Of both parties throughout the
county.

A Pic Nc OF OLD SETTLERS Mr.
Isaac N. Bas.ye. probably one of the
Oldest residents Of the county, made us q
very pleasant call last Saturday. He
came to this county in the year 1918. be,
for it was named, all this section Of
country then being embraced In the
county Of St. Charles. He was only
nine years old at that time, and has ex
perienced all the hardships of piouser
life. Mr.. Bassye suggested that it would
be good idea for all the old settlers OF
the county to have re e,unios at some
convenient point, where they may meet
and live the past over again in social
talks. 1t will doubtless meet with the
appreciation of our pioneer citizens, and
be very interesting affair. Much in
tsrsstiug information could thus b
cleaned, that will otherwise sink ints
so'Rs,fulness. We hope they ~ill pu,
