The Railroad Committee.

The committee soliciting sub
scriptions to the bonds of the new
railroad have been very diligently
at work since their appointment,
and the amount subscribed is now
100000. The committee feel very
hopeful and expect to realize the
full amount required by further and
more persistant efforts. 1t is their
desire to raise $3.50, 900 in GAINESVILLE
and that portion of Montgomery
county through which the road is to
pass. They deem it necessary to
have at least $125,OOO subscribed
before they go into Kentucky.
Past experience does not justify
them in expecting more than
$4,000 from the section lying be-
tween the State line and Princeton,
and including that city. 1t is very
necessary then, in order that the
road should be built, that the peo-
pie of GAINESVILLE and Montgomery
county should be very liberal in
their subscriptions. This city can
not afford to lose the road at any
price, and it would be better to
raise the total amount here than to
let it go by default. The work of
soliciting is very labOrious, and in
many particulars disagreeable. The
committee deserve much praise for
their diligence and ought to be
given all the assistance possible.

AID FOR TIE SUPREME COURT.

We stated in our last issue that
the Legislature had failed to pass
an intermediate court law, and eX-
pressed our regret at the neglect.
We are now glad to state that dur
ing the last hours of the session such
a bill was passed, and ample pro-
vision has been made to relieve the
Overcrowded Supreme Court docket
and to facilitate litigation in the
future.
The bill passed, we understand,
was prepared by the GAINESVILLE bar,
and our best informed lawyers deem
it very satisfactory. 1t provides for
three Referees, one from each grand
division of the State, to be appointed
by the Supreme Court. To this
board the Supreme Court will refer
whatever cases they deem proper.
The findings of the board are not
final but must be subsequently con-
tirmed by the Supreme Court before
they become binding. Its action
will facilitate the business of the
higher Court on the same principle
that the reports of the c. q NJ, aid
the chancellor.

THE ELECTIONS.

The general result of the elections,
held at different places in the Uni
ted States during the first days of
this week, has been very favorable
to the Democrats. Carter Harrison
was reelected Mayor of Chicago
and the whole Democratic ticket
was carried in that city by a very
satisfactory majority. In Cincinna-
ii the entire Democratic ticket
was elected except the comptroller.
Cleveland, too, elected a Democratic
Mayor. In Michigan the honors
were even, one Democratic and one
Republican Judge being elected.
Brown, the Republican candidate,
was elected Governor in Rhode Is
land-a different result could not
have been anticipated as Sprague
was personally Objectionable. The
whole gives cause for democratic
congratulation and evinces the fact
that the boom which begun last
fall is still rolling on to capture the
White House.

The New Fish LAW.

The new fish law makes it a mis-
demeanor to catch, destroy or kill
fish on, or from, any of the waters of
the State, whether running streams
or lakes or ponds having outlets
intorunnings streams in low water, by
any other means whatever than by
angling with hook and line without
gig, spike, gun grab hook or snatch
hook. The exceptions are that
hand or minner net may be used in
taking small fish for bait; that the
fish commissioners may use nets
for the purpose of catching fish to
be transferred to other waters, and
that the owners OF private ponds
may stock their ponds by catching
fish with nets from streams, etc.
The act does not apply to ponds,
bayous and sloughs that have no
outlet into any running stream in
low water. Fish eggs are also pro-
tected. The Grand Jury is given
powers and the penalty
provided for a violation of the act
Is a fine of not less than So or more
than $25, with cOnfiscatiOn of all
boats nets, &C., used by the viola
tors. The sheriff is to sell all such
property in front of the courthouse
door to the highest bidder, and
the proceeds to the
SCHOOL, full.

been instructed to pay the bill and
he had done so. Some time ago a
struggling negro from Guthrie, KY,
had been taken with the small pox

The ringing of the market house
bell had assembled the city author

back to Hamptons'. The negro who
drove the wagon said he had been
ordered to bring the patient to town
and the citizens of GAINESVILLE were
consequently indignant. There had
been some misunderstanding. He
had had nurse provided for the
afflicted negro and roof put over
him.
Esq. Marshal-Judge Tyler, did
you say the negro driving the wag-
on was instructed to turn the small
pox patient over to the city authori-
ties?
Judge Tyler-No, sir, said he
so stated. L know his statement
was not true. He got drunk and |
