cERULEAN SPRINGS.
July 10. 'S5.

July 10, 80.
Mr.. EDITOR Some tune has pass
ed since any report has appeared in
the KENTUCKIAN.
II is useless to enter into the beau
ties of Cerulean, as every one who
has ever been here will rccollect its
prominent location, and here it
would be well to state for those who
have never been here, that it differs
from the ordinary resorts IN point
of location. 1t is not built in hol-
low or out in field with no trees
within rifle shot of the house. But
the hotel is located, with one excep-
ton, on the highest point
in this part of the county.
Consequently a good breeze is felt all
the time. Large forests, nice walks,
splendid view Of the country look
ing east, beautiful yard with shade
trees. The guests are not compelled
TO remain in their rooms to keep out
of the sun. A good barber in atten-
dance, ten-pin-alley, dancing, fine
band of music and games Of all sorts
60 far in passing away the time, and
best of all is the sulphur water, the
finest in the world. For rest and
health Cerulean is undoubtedly Sec
ond to none.
The railroad from GAINESVILLE is
being graded over within few miles
of this place. There Is no foundation
to the report that the road was sold,
but instead, it will be ironed and cars
running as far as Newstead by Aug.

1t is rumored that the contest for
the post oflice at this place, in which
there were five candidates, has been
very much simplified by the with
drawal of two of them. By-the-way
charges have been preferred against
the present postmaster and the mat
ter is now before the department.
AT the rate at which changes are
now being made in the Presidential
post-ofllces it is not unlikely that
Hopkinsville may be reached in the
regular order before the President
takes his months vacation, tho first
Of August.

THE H. 4 G. R. R.

Maj. Robinette and party complet-
cd the survey of the Hopkinsvillc &
Cadiz Railroad Friday afternoon to
the Chesapeake Il Ohio and returned
Saturday by way Of Nortonville. AS
indicated from time to time they
found an exceptionally good route
all the way. The line is 28l6 miles i'll
stead of q as estimated. OF course
it will require a good deal of work to
figure results from the notes taken,
but Maj. Roblnette kindly gave us a
few oil-hand estimates Of the proba-
bic cost of the work. The line runs
through the northwestern part ofthe
county, 1t starts about quarter
of mile to the right of the Prince
ton road in the suburbs of Hopkins
vile and runs almost in direct line
for several miles. 1t crosses Haw-
thorn creek in Col. j. NJ. Dodd's field
and thence proceeds to Sinking Fork,
about s or 8 miles from the starting
point. Crossing the ridge between
Sinking Fork and Sandlick creek it
runs down the valley of the latter
stream to Tradewater river which it
crosses at the mouth of the Sandlick
running through what is known as
the Cranes Neck. Running down
Tradewater valley it crosses Castle
berry creek to the top of the ridge at
S. b. Terry's, 20 miles from the city.
1t then passes the ridge "a miles to
the bottom of Buffalo creek and
thence down to the foothills which
separate it from Caney creek. Thence
1t proceeds about 1000 feet across
Caney creek bottom, crossing the
stream just before joining the e. "
o. road between Handy and Daw-
son, and three miles east Of the lat
ter place. The cost of grading and
tying the road to the Sandlick is not
expected to exceed $1,000 or
$1,000 per mile. After reaching
that point there are about six miles
of comparatively rough country aud
the estimate for this is put at not ex-
ceeding $1,000 per mile. Then comes
some very fine stretches and il is es-
timated that some single miles in the
vicinity of Buffalo creek will not
cost as much as $1,000. The estimate
on the whole y miles not including
the rough section of six miles is
put at from $1,000 to $1,000 per mile.
AT the outside figures these estimates
would put the cost of the road to our
people at $4,000 and the calcula-
tions from the notes taken may even
reduce that. This is upon the basis
OF free labor and if convicts are EN-
ployed the figures may be lowered
$4,000 or more. Where are those
who say the road cannot be built !
II our people want another road
there is no reason why they should
not have it completed by Jan. LIST, il
they will go ahead and raise the
money.
The cost of the survey already
made will not reach 5000 and there
will be enough money left of the ap
preparation to carry the line TO tho
Trigg county line and if Cadiz IL
willing to help herself and meet III
at the line the survey can be com
pleted al once.
The elevation varied on the linz
surveyed from l57 feet above to Isl
feet below the Court house level, Of
a variation of 3l4 feet.

Killing at NOrtOnville.

News was received here yesterday
of the killing of Robt. Ladd by Luther
Page at or near Nortonville, in Hop
kins county, Sunday. The trouble
grew out of the killing by Ladd of
COW belonging to Page.
The parties met and Page got out
his pistol. Ladd attempted to draw
his but Page warned him not TO try
to draw the weapon and as he was
trying to get it out Page opened fire,
shooting him three times and killing
him instantly.
Both of them were middle-aged
men, with families. Page was for
merly Constable in the Crofton dis

ney of Todd, was in the city last Fri
day. The Colonel has cut Off his re-
markable moustache which was by
actual measurement 2S inches from
tip to tip. He could put it over his
shoulders, cross it at the back of his
neck and Tie it under his chin. II
was probably the longest moustachc
in the United States. Col. Brown
usually wore it resting on his Shout
ders and he found that it attracted
so much attention as to be a source
of annoyance and so he trimmed il
down to the length of an ordinary
moustache. By-the-way the genia
colonel is a candidate for election Il

Exciting CAPTURE of a Sawfish.

GdiUest0n Letter to the ST. Louis Globe Democrat
Christmas Bay is a lagoon-like sheet of
water some thirty miles to the westward
OF this city, through which the waters of
the Gulf of Mexico ebb and flow by
several narrow passes, The place is
much frequented by the Greek and Sicil-
ian fishermen who supply this market
with brain food, and the ordinary catch
of reddish, sea trout, sheephead and
founders is sometimes supplemented by
the capture OF some yagrant sea monster
which mas wandered into the shallow
waters Of the lagOOn-in no place more
than seven feet in depth-and has teen
apparently unable to find its way back
to the gulf. An episode of this description
of the fishing smack Hercules-NichO-
las Radanovich-with three of his
men were engaged in making a
cast of their seine, which is some
600 feet in length. The men on be-
ginning to "pull and haup' the net ashore
discovered a commOtiOn in the water
within the space surrounded by the float
ing seine, which was soon increased, and
they saw a tremendous FISH plunging
about IN the net in very lively style. The
monster, in attempting to break through
the seine, became entangled in the lead
line. which became wound "rOund and
round" its body until the fishermen sue
ceeded in drawing it into shallow water,
where it was discovered to be an immense
saw-ish. Capt. RadanOvich rushed into
the lagoon up to his waist for the purpose
of securing the captive, when he received
a blow from its saw that cut his thigh
open, and which will incapacitate him for
duty for several weeks. The fish was
finally secured alive, and tOwed to the
city astern of the smack in spite of Its
struggles, and was anchored in the
bay at Kuhn's wharf this morning, where
it was viewed by hundreds of curious
people. Your correspondent viewed the
monster and found it to be the largest
specimen of its species ever captured on
this coast, measuring 221Z feet trCm tip to
tip, Of which length the saw measured 5%
feet. The reference books describe the
sawfish as cartilagenOu5 fish Of the
genus pristus, the type of family inter-
mediate in position between the sharks
and rays, although generally ranked with
the latter. 1t has the elongated and
rounded form Of the shark with the mouth
and gill opening on the yentral surface as
in rays. It's distinguishing character is
the long, flattebed, narrow and straight
snOut set on the sides with teeth or long
spines, forming a dOuble-edged saw-like
weapon, whence the common name. The
average length of the common species is
from II TO Is feet. The capture OF yester-
day Will be skinned, stuffed, and placed
on exhibition.

Faith, frenzied faith, once welded firm
and fast to some dear ialsenood, hugs IL to
the last, and those who were in theSoudan
bore ample testimony to the amazing, be-
wildering reoklessness and disregard of
pain with which these soldiers OF the
Mahdi came charging on to their fate.
the truth is. they looked beyond the
British squares at the green groves OF
paradise. The glitter of the grim bay
onets before them was as nothing to the
radiance OF the great gates they could see
opening for them. In front the flash OF
rifles and the low rolling smoke OF the
cannon, duh masses OF men in gray, and
camels in tumultuous motion. But
further of and visible only TO the eyes of
those on-rushing fanatics were the fiut-
terinG Of robes of green silk, the simmer
of golden ornaments. Here, close at
hand, were the furious roar of the artil-
leTy, the pitiless fusillade, the fierce
clamOr of men giving and receiving
death; but, above il all, the ears of the
true believer, quicked by his mortal
wound, caught the sweet litings of
heavens singing birds, the murmur of
the breeze IN the leaves, the babblings OF
the fountains of Zem-zen, the whispered
carresses of those hidden pearls, 1.-THE
maids"
So they came on in a rush alltogather,or
in small parties, or even singly, to meet
the death which leads to paradise" Out
from the bush and IRON behind rocNs they
came on, one against hundred, dane
ing aud shouting. What If they fell? 1t
was an intdel hand that laid them low.
This end was achieved. Or, if they
reached the unDeliever's line, and drove
their spears home before they went down
before the bullets, all the greater was the
gain, all the larger was the fullness OF
eternal bliss.
The leaders of Islam have always known
how to avail themselves OF this intense
condolences in the immediate possession of
paradise Mohammed himself never failed
TO employ it to the utmost, and his sue
cessOrs. on many a field of victory, have
proved its potency. The Moslem sees his
reward actually within his arms length.
He has only TO strike and it is his. If he
kiIls-or is killed-he is assured of the
Prophets favor, and if he dies killing he
is dOubly secure. The lives of such men
are, after all, but duh processes. Their
language, their philosophy prove that they
feel this themselves. They do not cling
to life as precious provision, but are
ready to throw it away. "Allah's Will be
dOne!" and there is an end Of it."
