Duck River valley n. n

the people of this section 70 know that
the Directors of the Duck River Valley
Railroad are adopting epergetic meas
ures to ensue the early commence
ment OF the important work before
them. With that jealous persistency
which indicates an earnest and effective
spirit, they are pursuing the great object
in view, viz: the speedy completion of
the road. In this they are cordially
seconded by the stockholders, while the
people along the proposed routes are
manifesting gratifying interest that
promises to remove every obstacle in
the way of success.
The survey will be commenced in
few days, beginning at Columbia, thence
to this place via Lewisburg and Fay
etteville. 1t will probably take four
months to complete The preliminary
work, at the end of which time the road
will be placed under contract as follows:
From Observation-Disclosures.
From Columbia-East and West.
From Fayetteviile-East and West.
From Tullahoma--West.
About uwo-thirds of the stock re u;rsd
to construct the road bed has been sub
scribed, and it is the intention of the
Directors to commence operations at the
earliest possible moment, building each
way, as far as their means will allow,
relying in the meantime upon new sub
scriptiOns being raised to complete that
portion of the work. The Company
have asked the town ofColumbia for $780,
O00, and the citizens Of that progressive
place will undoubtedly vote the amount /
almost unanimously. The county of
Hickman, in which there is large in |
dividual subscription, has been petition
cd for 100000, and it is generally conce- |
ded that the request will be granted |
without opposition. If the county votes |
that amount the private subscriptions
will be relinquished. Assistance will !
probably DO asked from the town of
Fayetteville and the county CT 1Ioore,
and Tullahoma may possibly be called |
upon for 1000, payable in three years. !
1t Is confidently expected that the 4
contract will be given out and tho men /
at work by the first day of April, while /
the route of the road from Jacksonville |
to Columbia will be decided upon in |
time to begin operations at that date. |
The officers of the road mean business,
and reasonable encouragemenI from |
the people viii enable them to achieve |
success. The Board of Directors deserve |
commendation for l-Lving passed reso. |
luton prohibiting the employment Of
Chinese OF convict labor upon the road. |
ms SHOWS proper appfectaiIOn OF reg
ular home wOrknlen, and justconcep- |
ton OF the claims of honest labor. One /
OF the main o.jects of this road is to Of |
feet a connection between the iron ore |
of Hickman county and the coal re- |
gions of the Cumberland Mountains. |
thus necessitating the erection of Blast |
Furnaces at either terminus and ena> |
ablipg train going out with coal to |
return loaded with Ore.-ItIttahOn,a In |

Few people can conceive of the hard
ships that the prisoners in county jafls
have 10 contend Nth. In our own conn
ty the Jailcr is humane and kind, and
does as much for his prisoners az the
law allows. but this is not SO all coun-
ties. In the Carolinas, and Florida, the
treatment of the prisoners at times has
been barbarous, urder the present rad
fral regime. We have recently seen it
stated in Florida paper, that the pris-
olers-many of them, perhaps, innocent
people-were treated so inhumaneiy,
that they said death would bewelconlcd
as relief They had been fed upon sour
bread and rotten beet, until life became
living death. Our county iails are not
intended as places eff pun ,shment-ex-
cept in few cases-buJ are merely re-
positories for the safe keeping of those
who are charged with crime. Innocent
men are often charged with crime, and
itpoverty, or being strangers. prts it
beyond their power to make tho requi-
site bond, for their appearance IL court,
they have 90 to Jail, and suffs- 81 the
rigOrs of real felons, until q tris- can be
had. 1t is not unfrequently the case
that men remain in Jail year or two
and are finally acquitted. Upon such
it bears hard to suffer with thieves and
murderers. The inmates Of our own
Jail cannot complain of their food, either
as to quantity or quality; but they are
not allowed to have fire. 1t must be ter
rible punishment to have 10 lie wrapped
up in blanket, on a hard floor, for
weeks and months to keep from freez-
ing. 1t seems TO US that common hui
manity would suggest that our Jail
ought to be heated by some means.
1t could be done by means of furnace
without mourning any danger

lower The local advantages, greater facilities
for delivering books in either large OF small
quantities, AZ aerlTed aud when needed coupled
with other considerations, Of financial interest
