US, indeed and the very season, too, when
the farmer takes his co.toa and corn and
small grain to market, the question of roads
and bridges, always an importent one, is
doubly 80. The Hlllsboro Mirror, an excel
emit paper and most ably edited, bs q
thorough journalist and gentleman, discuss
ing this subject, says:
As civilization increases, in proportion
does the perfection in the building OF bridges
and the reparining of the public roads eK'
tending form one point Of travel TO another
In the country, increase In the very nature
Of things, roads are dedicated to the public
nae. for without the use by the public the
roads soon cease to be. OF the twelve mag
ni6cent roads which once led out from
Rome, only fragments now remain. Why
is this? 1t is because OF their dis
use by the public. Cessing TO be
roads of public use they cease to exist. Use
by the public was of the very essence of
their living, and when that was Withdrawn
corroson AT once begun and hnally accom-
plished their destruction. Aud 1t Is worthy
of observation and profound reflection, that
their disuse marked the decay OF the
opulenee. the power, the grandeur and the
civilization of Rome. When the barbarian
waved his triumphant banner over Rome
and her glory darkened behind the cloud of
northern invasion, US the lustrous monu-
