1t does seem strange that there is so
much apathy just now among the people
Of this town and county. when the peo-
pie in all parts Of the State are looking
towards our great coal fields, and making
every exertion to reach them. We see
in the Hillsborough News, that there
has been large and enthusiastic meet
ing at that place, to take measures 10
build narrow gauge road to intersect
our road at cambridge. Another meet
ing has been called. Active movements
are on foot to build road from Cincin-
natl to HiIlsborough by way of Mt oreb,
and Milford Station, or Batavia.
And now another earnest move is on
foot to build narrow gauge road from
Portsmouth up the Scioto Valley, to in
tersect our road 1t is proposed to have
the Ohio canal vacated between Chilli
cothe and Portsmouth, and use the tow
path for road bed.
With these new proposed connections,
and the Wellston road, untold wealth
would be poured into our county, for our
coal. Then why will subscribers of stock
to our two roads hold back? We are
told that seven suits have been
commenced, to endeavor to compel pay
ment. This is right. If these subscri-
bers are legally liable to be made pay, let
the matter be tested

view of the great city far in the valley
below. This hill is four hundred feet
above the level of the river. Our car
riages were driven around the winding
road and met us at the summit. where we
re-embarked for the Burnet Woods,
thence to Avondale and the geological
Garden. This is wondeful place. and
lovers of natures creatures should not
fail to visit this Garden. The grounds
are finely located, and are just being put
into good repair. The buildings are
most excellent, and the animals in fine
condition. 1t will pay to 60 to the Gar
den, as it is the only Geological Garden
in this great belt or country between the
Alleghenies and Rocky Mountains.
There are only three Gardens of the kind
on this Continent; one located in Phila-
delphia, one in Cincinnati and one in
San Francisco. From the Garden we
drove to the Club House where
the bankers Of Cincinnati gave us hand
some entertainment. among whom was
our friend Mr. Falls; Mayor Johnston
was our captain in all these pleasures
and he accompanied us to the Gibson
House, where we were entertained until
a late hour at night.
Our party consisted of the following
named persons:
Committee on Insane Asylums-Mona
han, of Jackson, chair man; Faxon, o.
Lorain; Beach, of Madison; Mesloh, o.
Auglaize; Guthrie, Of Marion; Grove, o.
Montgomery, and White, of Hamilton.
The members of the Committee on Fl
nance were Drummer. of Wyandot; Per
kins, of Medina, and Bowen, OF Hooking
Accompanying the committees were
Sellards, of Scioto, and Nixon, Of Harri
son; besides DR.. Landfear, Superintend
ent of the Dayton Asylum, and the fol
lowing ladies; Mrs and Miss Monahan
of Jackson County; Miss Reach, of Mad
ison. and Miss Guthrie, of Marion.
here give you few facts and figures
pertaining to this great Ohio city, which
will be of interest to your readers.
There are in this city l72 churches
2 lS2 saloons, 400 miles of graded streets
The city covers an area of 25 square
miles, 3 square miles of the most popu
lous in the world. The initials of hel

for her chief commercial trade, beer
pork and whisky. Lookout Beer House
on jackson Hill, sold in one day las
summer, and that day Sunday, 23s keg
of beer, equal TO $4,000 glasses. Taxi
this one house, and make a calculation
for all the sales made by other bee
houses in the city. and the amount o
beer sold and drank, if poured into

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.l
The Springfield and Pomeroy Coal Road

JACKSON, O., January 30 1877.
To the Editor Of tie Enquirer:
The Springfield, Jackson and Pomeroy
Railroad under the energetic manage
ment of Hon. James Emmitt, President,
is now at point when no one doubts its
completion during this season from
Springfield to jackson. The Jackson
coal is now worth at the mines three
cents a bushel. or seventy-five cents a
ton, and all points along the line can OBJ
tam coal (the best in 0hio) delivered at
eight cents bushel, or at 80 ton; and
with the increased development of our
mines that the added market must pro
duce, the cost cannot be larger. The
cost per bushel of mining 500 bushels a
day in one mine is much greater than
when the same mine produces 1000
bushels day. The favorable grades OF
the Springfield, Jackson and Pomeroy
Line are known, and the freight will be
low
Now, let the people Of Cincinnati move
TO put themselves in connection with the
superior coal-felds of jackson county
aud Southern Ohio: and they can do
this by either leaving the Miami Valley
at Milford, and by way of Newtonville
and Fayetteville to Hillsboro, or by the
road now running 20 Batavia, thence by
Williamsburg direct to Hillsboro, and
from Hillsboro intersect the Springfield
Jackson and Pomeroy Road at Balm
bridge. Either line is practical, cheap
of easy g.ade, and through good country.
Let the people Of ClerIIont, Brown and
| Highland take some step toward this
easy and profitable connection.
From jackson to Cincinnati, by way oi
cambridge and Hillsboro, is twenty-five
miles shorter than any existing line
The line will be pushed speedily on ia
Pomeroy through the rich coal-felds and
iron to that great salt region, thus tap
ping the Ohio River on a line sixty miles
shorter than by the Marietta and Cincin
natl Railroad, and opening up connection
with large part of West Virginia. The
people of Pomeroy are alive to the i'm
portance Of this line to Cincinnati. Pres
ident Woodward of the Batavia Narrow
Gauge, sees the advantages of such line
and all that remains to do is for the sew
eral communities interested to take i'm
mediate steps to secure cheap coal-cheap
motive power--the greatest element oi
growth a town can have.
Let men interested in this matter al
various points get into immediate com
munication with each other, as well as
stir up the people to the Importance oi
early action.
Yours, for
COAL ROAD.
