Money and Land Required
Special 10 ths Register.
PARxERsBURG, W. Va, March 7.-Dr.
Isaac Scott, President Of the Board Of the
Black Diamond Railroad Directors, has
arrived. From the Doctor / CLEANED the
following interesting news in relation to
the prospective railroad: The gentlemen
who went to Philadelphia to represent the
road there met with strong syndicate OF
Philadelphia and New York railroad men.
They guarantee to build the road if the
counties through which itpssses contribute
$3.50 900 and 250, 900 acres OF land.
AS TO the land, one Philadelphia firm
contributes $4,000 acres, and / have it
that Braxton county will contribute
100000 acres. Then there remains out
100, 900 left for the rest of the counties.
This land is to be within reasonable dis
tsnce of the road: From appearances
there viii be no difficulty in securing the
desired amount Of land.
As to the money, there are eight coun-
ties in West Virginia through which the
road will pass and two in Virginia. The
average contribution would be S25, 900,
bot an spportiOned contribution, of course,
will fall rather heavy on the populous
counties, particularly Wood county, which
has recently added s2O, 1000 to her o. r R.
railroad contributions. However, there
can be little doubt that the necessary
amount Of money will be raised. The
doctor is emphatic in guaranteeing the
construction of the Black Diamond road
when the above mentioned appropriations
and contributions are made.
Thos. Core, of Peasants county, has
lust received q voucher for arrearages OF
pensions, amounting to $1,000. The pen
sion dates from the time of his discharge
