the appropriation, 388 against the ap
prcpriation, 81; and one person voted .

At Washington the appropriation was
defeated by majority or over 500, aud
Ia the two other townships majority
for the road was obtained.
Messrs. Campbell and HoIlingshca
were IN the city during the election and
these gentlemen informed us that work
on the road would commence immedi-
ateIy, and the road would be finished
from Petersburg 20 the river by July
next. The road will not pass through
Washington as originally intended, that
place. having voted down the tax. The
builders Of the road say that the road
will he built three miles west of Wash

Washington made grand mistake in
voting against the enterprise as the
alDvc will show.
With the completion OF the road times
will improve wonderfully. Trade that

once return. Real estate will advance
with the building of the road. while m
