Progress Of the Railroad.

Mrs:D4yjs, who represents the /. B.&
w. in the building of its connecting line
from Indianapolis to Dayton and Spring
field, and there to connect to the eastern
cities, was with US all last week, organ
izing committees, holding meetings and
getting the matter in shape to secure the
subsidy and the. right of way through
our county for this great enterprise. The
portion of territory through which this
road has been surveyed in our countyis
divided into three sections, for the pur-
pose of working up the right of way, &C.,
West Alexandria on the east-Eaton and
Washington Township in the centre, and
West Florence and the west road on the
west. Subsidy and.right of way com
mittees have already been appointed in
the eastern and western divisions and
are at work. The subsidy committee in
our division is made up of the following
gentlemen IN. B. Stephens, John T.
Deem, John Rhea, J. n. Lake, Samuel
Oldfather, G. H. Edison, H. G. Hiestand,
&c. f. Brooke, ST., John Lander, J.. H.
Zoos, Levi Risinger, w. G. M. Brookins
and G. G: ~Schlenker. The right of way
committee is as follows David Peters,
u. P. Acton, Alfred Denny, A. E. Hub
bard, j. V. Campbell*and &c. Kelly
These committees viii go to work imme-
diately, and we hope that persons called
upon will act fayorably and promptly in
giring the right Of way and subscription
to this contemplated railway, the build
ing of which exhibits such favorable
prospects in the future welfare of our
city and county and be a boon long need
ed to our farmers, merchants, manufac-
turers and people of all classes, by Civ
ing US an-opening east and west for all
our products. The advantages that will
accrue to US from such IN enterprise, as
we have remarked before, cannot be es-
timated in the growth of Jul town and
the surrounding country, and we hope
every citizen will feel !. interest in it
and assist in pushing it forward. Rail
roads increase the value of your lands,
your products, and your houses, they
build towns and cities and make them
rich and prosperous. Don't sit down and
undertake to console yourself by saying,
SO, it will come anyway" 1t WILL NOT
unless you show willing hands and open
purses to help it to come. Every man
can do something, and every citizen
should feel it his duty to do that some
thing. at once.
The meeting at the city Hall on Tues
day evening was for the purpose OF Civ
ing the committees here a start at work.
As our, forms are made up on Tuesday
evening, we cannot say what was done.

Every person ought 70 take his own
town paper. The cost OF a paper is no
excuse forsnDt taking one. There is not
a week passes but that five times three
cents are spent foolishly, which might
have much better, been invested in a
newspaper. The sum of one dollar and
fifty cents ayear invested in a newspa-
per buys more reading matter than TWEEN
ty dollars will purchase in the shape of
books. A man may read books all his
life, but if he fails to read the papers, he
may be called ignorant. Without a news
paper, a man is virtuallyou of the world.

bats the opiaion, held by many arboricul-

yeftel into a forest through the operation Of
natural causes ard a. establishing the fact
that such charge does sometimes occpr,
brings forward the case Of the Shenandoah
Valley When first settled, about 100 years
ago. it was an open prairie-like region COW
cred with tall grass, on which fed herds Of
deer. buffalo elk, etc, and havingnO timber,
except on ridgy portions Of it; but in con-
sequence of It's settlement, the annual fires
were prevented, and trees sprang up almost
as thickly and regularly as if seed had been
planted. These forests, having been pre-
served by the farmers, cover now q large
part of the surface with hard wood trees of
superior excellence. Thee facts would al
so seem TO subs,antiato The theory that the
treeless character Of the praires Of the West
Is due to the annual burning of the grass
by the Indians.
