Eds. Democrat:
Your valuable paper has very respect
able number of subscribers at this place,
perhaps all Of whom would be pleased to
see AN occasional letter from Navarro in
your columns, and for their benefit as
well as those of our friends abroad who
receive the DEMOCRAT we venture to fur
nish few items, unsolicited, for publlca-
ton.
We are not exempt from the general
depression of business that hangs like
pail over the entire country, but we no.
tice our merchants are stocking up with
goods, perhaps, hoping that the dark
clouds that hangs over US may not be
without silver lining
One of the notable events of the week
was a visit from a committee OF FIVE,
composed of some of the leading busi-
ness and scientific men of Sandusky,
who were here to examine and report on
the mineral deposits along the line of
the w. & l.. Il. Railroad, with a view TO
stimulate the people of that city TO com
plete the subscription necessary TO build
the road. IL appears that some of the
people of Sandusky not having full in
formation on the subject, had doubts as
to there beiug sufficient minerals on the
line to warrant the building of the road.
We speak from observation when we say
that the examination made by this com
mittee was most thorough one, so far as
i! relates to the country south of Navarro
to and beyond ZOar Station, and upon
seeing the immense mines of coal, iron
ore, limestone and fire-clay they like the
Queen of Sheba were ready to exclaim
that "the half had never been told
They carried such a collection of miner
ais home with them as will be convincing
evidence, let the committee say never q
word.
The Directors of the W. & L. E. Rail
road meet at the Rochester House in thi'
place, on Tuesday, November 3rd. We
have an abiding faith Of the final build
ing of the road but like many others are
impatient at the delay. Our citizen Hon
Thos. w. Chapman, has labored for the
success of this enterprise with such per
sistence as should entitle him to tht
thanks of all friends of tile project.
Prof Jake Stansbury promises to ex
hibit his animals, snakes and sich on Fri
day and Young America is expectant.

AMUSEMENTS.

Don't forget the Woods and their ex-
cellent entertainment at the Opera House
OF Saturday evening, Nov, 9TH. We
hope to see every seat crowded with in,
terested auditors, as Harry and Fannie,
with their company will certainly give a
rare show. Don't fail to attend.
On last Monday evening, that excel
lent actor and comedian Felix A. Vim
cent, with a good supporting company,
gave the Steam Fire Engine Co., rous-
ing, benefit at the OperaV House The
programme Ireland as it was, and Rob-
ert Macaire, was rendered in a superior
manner, and received the applauding
demonstrations of a highly pleased au-
dience. Mr. Vincent as well as his COM
pany, has made himself great favorite
in our city, and we can assure him ofde-
cided success whenever he may cali on
US again. The audience throughout the
entertainment were thoroughly interest
ed and oblivious to all but the excellent
acting before them. u {
MAGGIE Maggie Mitchell,
the ever popular actress, appears at the
Opera House on the l4th in "The Pearl
of Savoy" Her late engagement at the
Boston Theater was the greatest success
known in that city, the receipts for the
three weeks amounting to over $4,000;
more than double taken at any other
place in that city. Her three matinees
realized nearly $1,000; which was more
than was taken at all given in that city
on those days; and three times as much
as at any other place of amusement in
the city on the same day.-Honford
