ling scenery along the line. When we
think Of this stupendous work the al
most superhuman skill and labor neces-
sary to design and carry it out, and the
millions of treasure expended, we are
struck with wonder and amazement.
Compared to this, the tower of Bable-
the pyramids of Egypt, and all the other
ancient works, sink into utter insignifi-
canoe. They were built simply to show
the world what il would cost to do so.

When Thomas ii. Benton 1--WE believe it

ton of making this great trans-continen-
tai railway, he was not only laughed at
in the United States Senate, but said to
be insane on the subject Nevertheless,
the grand work is fully accomplished.

A IIcartIcss Murderer.

A family named Ormes, consisting of
five in number, two men, one woman
and two small children, living in Mis-
souri,. were murdered in cold blood by a
desperate and heartless villain, recently.
The details are too long and horrible to
be repeated in these columns, and then
we doubt the propriety of publishing
such accounts. from the fact that il could
subserve no good purpose, and only pan
der to a depraved taste. The simple re-
cital of the fact that such deed has been
done, must suffice. The fiend wore the
name of Osborne. We are glad to re-
peat that he has paid the penalty he
merited.

Captain W. G. WEIGH, Greeley and
Brown Elcctor for Lincoln county, aud
r. G. Warren, Eco, Assistant Elector
for the sih Congressional District, adj
dressed the people Of Lincoln county at
this election precinct, to-day. Quite a
large attendance was present, and the
enthusiasm for the Greeley and Brown
ticket was warm, demonstrative and
happy. The iuitatory speech Of Capt.
WEIGH was well timed and listened to
with eager attentiveness Though not
intended as an elaborate expose of the
issues of the campaign, it was so far as
It's briefness admitted. a correct aud hon
est presentation Of the doctrine Of Ken
lucky and national Democratic aud Lib
eral Republican doctrine upon the politi-
cal questions of the Presidential canvass,
and created a very general desire to hear
the speaker upon general and thorough
Of American politics.
The speech of Mr.. Warren (his first
in the canvass was full and complete
exposure Of the vices and corruption of
the Grant administration, and a
well prepared and logical comment
upon governmental Affairs, viewed from a
Democratic standpoint and showed the
speaker to be close observant and con-
versant with the legal and contitutional
powers, privileges and restrictions of the
Federal government. The canvass of
Mr.. Warren through the district, judging
rom his discussion of pol teal affairs at
his place to-day, will be Of much avail
md do the clever and well-informed
loung speaker infinite credit.
This precinct will give m unanimous
'ote for Greeley and Brown.

An IMPORTANT STEP.
One Hundred and seven MILES Of the
Cumberland snd ohio Railroad Put
Under Contract.

Prom the Lebanon standard
The Board Of Directors of the Cum
berland and Ohio railroad met in Louis
on the Sd inst, all the countie, along the
line except Washington being repre-
sented. Thomas ). Grundy, Esq, was
elected instead of one of the directors
from Washington, who lately resigaed.
The other vacancy was left untitled for
the present.
The Board, after careful deliberation,
entered into contract with Messrs
Myer 4 Hay to grade, iron and equip
the road from Worthwhile, on the Short
line railroad, at Kentucky river, to
Greensburg, distance of 107 miles, at
about $4,000 per mile. The contrac-
tors take in payment, besides, the sub
scriptions. the bonds of the counties
along the line, at IS cents on the dollar.
and, after these are exhausted, they take
the remainder of their pay in the first
mortgage bonds issued by the company.
The amount of mortgage bonds necessary
for completing and equipping the road
will be about s43,5OO per mile. As il
is estimated that the road can carry
-up-tgage of SIS, 900 per mile, the asse-
contract leaves a considerable margin.
These mortgage bonds will probably be
twenty-year bonds, bearing eight per
cent. interest.
This contract goes into effect October
proximo. The road is to be completed
and cars running through to Greensburg
in two years aud two months, or by De
cember, 1874.
In order to carry out this contract II
largely increased force of hands will have
to be put upon the road. The first
twenty-five miles to be constructed will
be from Worthwhile to Shelbyville, after
which the work will proceed both ways
from Lebanon and Shelbyville, until
they meet.
The money raised by the sale Of bonds
goes to the credit of the company, and
is not to be paid to the contractors ex-
cept as the work is done, a sufficient
percentage of this being kept back to
insure the completion of the road,
The contract for graduation, masonry
and tunneling from Gallatin to the Ken
lucky State line, twenly-four miles, was
let to some parties in Tennessee at
price within the estimates of the engin-
Ger. They have the money to pay for
for this work-from private and corpo-
rate subscription in Sumner county.

Assignments.

People generally. have a very errone-
Gus idea about the matter Of making as
signments. They seem TO think that If
an individual or firm assign his effects
to trustee, for the benefit of all their
creditors, that ruin and insolvency ensue.
and the party making such assignment
thereby confesses to being hopelessly
broken down in business. People, too,
are apt to look upon the assignor as a
bad manager and unfit to attend to his
own affairs. Now such ideas are wrong
and unjust to the unfortunate debtor.
The act of assignment is altogether
proper and honorable one. If an indl-
vidual has been either unfortunate or un-
successful in business, whereby he Is rem
dered unable to pay all his debts fully,
and there is probability that part of
his creditors will force him under the
law to pay them, thus taking, perhaps,
all of his estate to do so, then the high
est duty of the individual is to hand over
his property into the hands of another,
In trust for the use and benefit of all his
creditors, share and share alike. If all
will not wait, then the few should not he
allowed TO come in and take the lions
share, leaving those who were less i'm
Fortunate and more indulgent, without
my portion of their debts. Just at this
point the honest debtor will interpose,
and by timely assignment, place all
