A WASHINGTON correspondents says /:
There has been laborious attempt at
the Stat2 Department to conceal the
excitement occasioLed by the receipt
a day or two ago of important dispatch
es from Spain, the purpOrt of which
has lust been learned. Jouvelar, short
ly after his arrival in Cuba, sent dis
patches to Madrid which are said by
competent authority here to have pro-
duced a profound sensation. The pur-
port of these dispatches was that he
found himself unable TO carry out the
instructions that had been given him
in the way of instituting reform and
setting on foot conciliatOry measures
i'm the island. The volunteers, he found,
were beyond his control and too nu-
merous To lie despised. The Casino, it
is evident, is too much for him. Mr..
Fish is, therefore, preparing d new cir
cular note calling the attention of the
great powers to this state of affairs in
which the Spanish government finds
itself powerless TO fulfill pledges made
TO this government.

ALETTER has been received by DIR.
H. West, one of the Committee of cit
izens appointed to memorialize the
Legislature in reference to the National
Road. from Senator Knox, stating that
two propositions have been suggested
TO him by parties opposed to the pro-
feet of ceding the road to counties. One
j.. To apportion to the several counties
the excess of the funds, after paying
for the administration Of the road in
proportion to the amount OF tolls COL
lected on each. The other is to pro-
hibit the expenditure of any money for
the repair of the road within the lin
its of any incorporated village or city
through which it passes, thus compell-
irg villages and cities to regard the
road as any other street and to keep it
in repair. By reference TO the accounts
uf the Engineer it is ascertained that
large proportion CT the money eX-
pended on the road is expended in
cities and villages.
The plan proposed in the above sug-
gpstions would not materially differ in
result, from that prayed for in the me-
mortal of citizens of BelrOnt county
provided that it was carried out in
sopd faith. All that our people ask, is
some proper means TO preserve and
keep in repair this valuable highway.

HARPER MAGAZINE, FEBRUARY,
Is76.-Harper's Magazine for February
contains sixty-tive illustrations, and a n
exceedingly interesting variety of read
ing matter.
The opening illustrated paper on
Lyme treats not only of a town inter-
esting as being the birth place of the
present ChiefjuStice o. the United
States, but of region selected for the
commencement of empire byCromwell,
Hampden and several other English
nOblemen. The article carries US back
over two centuries, and is full of inter-
esting gossip, humOr, and romance.
Porte Crayon's Confession OF Can
didate," with twenty characteristic pic
lures, illustrates some humorous feat
ures of district politics in the hill cOun-
try OF Virginia.
"Vassar College," by Anna C. Brack-
EFT, is an intelligent CRITICS III, in the
main favorable, of representative
female college.
The Number contains two biOgraph.
ical sketches, both illustrated-one of
the late DR.. John Todd, and the other
of the Hon. Alexander H. Stephenes.
The article on DIR. Todd is contributed
by George Cary Eggleston, and that on
Mr.. Stephens is from the pen of Henry
w. Cleveland, formerly his private
secretary.
In the "First Century Series" Edwin
P. Whipple contributes the first of two
papers on American Literature. The
authorship Of the article is a sufficient
indication of its importance and inter-
est.
The especially novel feature of this
Number is the First Book of George
Eliot's new novel, "DanieI Doronda"
"a story of mt dern English life. This
installment alone is sold in England
for more than one dollar in gold, and is
given simultaneously to the readers OF
Harper's Magizi1e, without materially
the usual number or varie- |
ty of the other contributions to that
periodical.
Julian Hawthorne continues to con
tri butte to Harper's Magazine the sue
cessive inStallments of "Garth."
The poetry OF the Number is contri- /
buted by 7. X. Aldrich, Will Wallace /
Harney, and Zadel b. BuCdington.
The Editorial Departments admirab-
ly cover their respective fields of social |
gossip. literary criticism, scientific in
current history, and anec

Thursday, February 10th, is the day
set for the ctnimittees to report to
President Chamberlain at Cleveland,
what progress they have made in Sc
curing rights of way and stock SUBJ
scription5 for the extension of the
Cleveland, Tuscarawas Valley d.
Wheeling Railway to Wheeling.
As is generally known, there are two
competing routes diverging at Tippe-
canoe, Twelve miles south of UhriehS-
ville,-one route ascending Brushy
Fork and crossing the summit through
a tunnel at New Athens, and striking
Wheeling Creek at the mouth of Crab
Apple branch; the other route contin-
ues up Big Saltwater creek via. Free
port to the mouth of BOggs' Fork,
crossing the summit through a tunnel
at Flushing, thence down Wheeling
Creek to the connection with the New
Athens line at the mouth of Crab APP
pie branch. The people residing on
the rival ro'Tte5 have been hard ct
work during the winter securing rights
of way and stock subscriptions, and we
aIe informed that either route will be
ready to guarantee 10 -the Company d
free right Of rag, and furnish liberal
stock subscriptions. Most of the rights
of way have been secured on Wheeling
Creek, and in connection with the cit
izens of Bridgeport will furnish large
subscriptions.
Capt. +. A. Parrish, S. W. Andreas,
J cob WeIch, A. b. Johnson and 9th
ers Of this place have been trying to Sc
cure the rights of way from Uhrichs-
vile to Tippecanoe, and while they
have been successful in many Gases,
Others are holding back, and some have
refused to grant the riy ht of way. Un-
less the terms fixed by President
Chamberlain are compile d with, viz:
A free right of way and d stock sub
scriptf0n amounting to $500, 900 is rails
ed. the extension of the road to Wheel
ing will not be com menced.
No town is more deeply interested
in the extension of the road 10 Wheel
ing than Uhrichsyille. b ing the nat
ural business or operating centre of the
road when extended, the princip Al
shops will in all probability be located
here. The building Of the road up
saltwater Valley will open up com
mercial relations with rich agricultural
and mineral districts, aud with the I'm
pOrtant manufacturing cities of Wheel
ing, Bellaire, Bridgeport, Martins
Ferry and many other towns situated |
on the line Of the road or contiguous
to it.
The citizens of Dennison, assisted by
the Dennison Land Company, are
strong efforts to secure the ex-
tension of the road through their town.

LOUISVILLE puts in seductive plea
10 have the Democratic National Con-
vention held there. The Ccurier-Jo'"n-
ot eloquent on the subject, 1t thinks
st. Louis is out OF the question, because
"there is not hotter place in the
world or out of it than st. Louis in
July" As for Louisville, the editor
paints its charms thus glowingly; ave
have blooming parterres, wide boule-
yards, and spacious halls. Our climate
is free from the pestilential poisons OF
the South, end is never taiLted with
those odors which make travellers shun
the crowded streets of st. Louis in sum-
mer. We have spacious parks and
shady drives, along which the political
enthusiast may cool his feverish brain
after the conflict and agony of the day
is, over" That ought to settle the
question

GOVERNOR CHAMBERLAIN, OF South
Carolina, shows, in his letter to Unit
ed States Senator in Washington, that
the tendency of the rank aud file in
South Carolina, to secure the pickings
.,f idleness aud stealing, constitute the
zeal difficulty in reforming that state.
lie says: There is but one way TO
ave the Republican party in South
Carolina, and that way is, repeat, to
unload Noses and IVhipper, and all who
70 with them. 1t will be difficult TO
restore confidence in a party whose
members were once capable Of such an
ret as their election. but if our action
is prompt and decided, if you and the
Republicans at Washington will put
your feet upon such things and stamp
them ont, we can yet make South Caro-
lima and keep her as safely Republican
a5Vermcnt or Iowa. If this is not done,
we ga down here AS party 10 hopeless
and deserved defeat and infamy."
Such counsel should be needed.

THE Courier Journal sees the hand
writing on the wall. 1t confesses that
there is "every likelihood that the next
House will be hopelessly Radical" I"
and says of the Southern Democrats in
tha. body:
"They forget nothing. They learn
nothing. They talk and talk, while
the other side hies off with the swag.
Thus far, in spite of an overwhelming
majority, they have allowed them
selves to be beaten, overreached and
turned upside down on their particular
ground. Even their friends are sick
and despondant. The country wants 4
fresh set of intuitions and impulses;
not dreary rotation in old ideas"
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1876-02-03

They have offered q free right of way
through Dennison, and have secured a
free right Of way from Pike Run to
Gatchell's Gap; also u donation of five
acres of ground :or shOIs and 3 900 in
money. THIS line would have the ad-
vantages of joint depot facilities with
the Panhandle road ut DennisOn, in
suring close connections, aud would be
a great accommodation to the travelling
public.
AS the time is near at band when the
location of the road must be decided,
all parties Interested should put iOrth
their best etfOits 10 secure lis early
completion.
1t will involve the expenditure OF
upwards of d million of dcllars, which
Will prove stimulus to the business
interests of the whole route.
