WE would call the attention of
our readers to the advertisement of
Horace Waters d Son, headed,
Waters Concerto Parlor Organs"

can't do better than to copy the fol-
lowing;

any new thing, or any Improvement

ularize music by rcp@eringits study

were in doubt whether we liked il

W. regard this as a valuable add.

Keep it Before the People

That HARRISON LYLE, our candidate
for Representative, is a laboring
man, one too that can be relied up
on, who will fifty represent the peo-
pie of Vinton county; who will
not treat the petition Of his con-
stituents with contempt, as t. M.
BAY did.

WHITE SoIRREL.- Our friend, AR
THUR CAMP, living on the "Old
Camp Farm" two miles from Dun
das, in this county, while out hunt
ing, on Saturday last, killed a
white squirrel. He brought the
stuffed hide of the little rodent
mammal to this office last Monday.
This squirrel resembles the com
mon or gray squirrel, lSciurus vul-
garisj) in every respect--having
two cutting teeth in each jaw, a
long, tufted tail, four long toes on
the fore feet, and q tubercle instead
of a thumb, and five on the hind
feet. This is the only white SPUR
rel that has ever been killed or seen
in our county. If any one else has
killed or seen one, let lis know
about it. AS a corquerer of the
squirrel family, M. CAMP is consid-
erably in advance Of any other per-
son in Vinton county.

SWEET PoTAToEs.-We are sure
that SAMUEL H. HAYNES, of Eagle
Township, Vinton county, where all
things grow, and good people (in-
Guiding lots of substantial Demo.
Gratis live, can beat all other farm
ers in this county raising
Sweet Potatoes, Last Saturday he
brought us a fine lot of Sweet Pota-
toes of the White Brazilian variety,
some of which weighed 3 pounds
each. They are, we think, a much
better variety than the Nansemond.
If anybody has done better than
Mr.. HAYNES, please report to US.
AS the farmers and others of this
county cannot have the pleasure Of
showing what they raise at a
County Fair, let them come to this
office and make reports and we will
tell the people what they have rails
ed. Bring on your big ears of corn,
big pumpkins big "taters," big tur-
nips, &c.

Our Railroad.

The work upon the Railroad,
north of town, is progressing very
rapidly; and we must say that we
have never seen so much Railroad
made ready for ties and rails in so
sho. t q time-almpst one-third OF a
mile within twelve days. "On-
ward" Coward" the noble work
is proceeded with! We know that
we are safe in stating that the gra-
ding of this line of road, under the
direction Of President LANGLEY,
against whose administration so
much has been said, will cost only
one third Of the amount paid for
the grading of the line Of the Ma
rietta and Cincinnati Railroad. The
cost Of grading this road will be
but a trile as compared with the
roads which are built by contrac
tors. In this cheap construction of
a Railroad, President LANG LEY has
not only surprised the people of
this region, but we think he is ur-
prising even himself. When the
President engaged the services of
Mr.. j. d.. KIRKPATRICK to personally
superintend the work, he saved
thousands Of dollars for the Com
pany. Through the skill and en-
ergy Of President LANGLEY, the
road will be completed within a
few weeks, to q point eight miles
north of Macarthur.
And we will say that if the peo-
pie Of Macarthur and vicinity will
do what they have re peatedly said
they would do, namely, pay their
subscriptions promptly rs soon as
the work upon the road was com
menced; as many ofour citizens have
said they.would increase or double
their subscriptions. Let them
do so now. The road will then be
graded from the Marietta d Gin
cinnati Railroad northward eight
miles or more, and leaving a fair
portion of the line beyond for the
citizens of Logan and vicinity to
furnish the means for the grading,
because it is high time forlively Lo-
gan to wake up in this matter. If
Logan furnishes a fair portion ofthe
means forthwith, the road bed be-
tween the Marietta d Cincinnati
Road and Logan, will be made
ready for ties by January l, 1874.
Let us hear from Logan! Come
over and see the work! Now is
the time to move! This is destin-
ed to become an important line of
road, and Logan should not fail to
take a part in the play" and not
permit the work to rest for awhile a
few miles north of Macarthur!

BEYOND THE MISSISSIPPI !-Thous-
ands have already gone, and thousands more
are turning their eyes towards new homes in
the fertile West. To those going to Missouri,
Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah Wyoming
Nevada, Oregon or California, we recommend
a cheap, safe, quick and direct route, via st.
Louis, over the Pacific Railroad, which runs
its fine Day Coaches and Pullman Sleepers
from st. Louis to principal points in the West,
without change. We believe that the Mis-
souri, Pacific Railroad has the best track and
the finest and safest equipment OF any line
west of the Mississippi, and its connections
with roads further West are prompt and re-
liable. The Texas connection of this road is
now completed, and passengers are offered a
n first class all-rail route from st. Louis to
Texas, either over the Missouri, Kansas Il
Texas r.. r., via Sedalia, or over the Allan
tic & Pacific R. r., via Vinita. For maps,
time tables, information as to rates, routes,
&C., we refer our readers to S. II. Thompson,
Eastern Passenger Agent, Columbus, Ohie, or
L. A. Ford, G'n'r'l Passenger Agent, st. Lou
is. Mo. Questions will be cheerfully and
promptly answered. n25-1y
