ANOTHER RAILRoAD.--We have
received the issue of the Daily Public
Opinion, of the 9Th inst, newspaper
published in Texarkana, Arkansas, in
which we find letter to the editor of
the paper named above, in reference to
a proposed railroad from st. Louis to
New Orleans via Alexandria. The
correspondent says the proposed route
lessons the distance between St. Louis
and New Orleans from seventy-five to
one hundred miles over all other routes,
and "besides opens out to commerce
one of the richest mineral and timber
sections to be found in the South y
"The road is to pass through the best
and most productive cotton lands"
along Red river, Dorcheat bayou, Lake
Bisteneau and Black lake from the
headquarters of the bayou to Alexand-
ria where the New Orleans Pacific
crosses on it's way to seaboard. The
main course of the road in Louisiana is
to be from Shangloo, in Webster Par
ish, to Minden, thence to Ringgold in
Bienvi!le Parish, thence to East Point
on Red river, thence to Coushatta,
thence to Grand Ecore, from Grand
Ecore to Montgomery and thence to
Alexandria. We publish the above
for information to our readers ano
would like to hear from them on the
subject. Alexandria will surely be &
railroad town of some magnitude ii
the future, hut as to how soon no one
. can say. Our people should move

Remarkable Recovery.

I was two months in hospital in
this city under treatment for blood
poison. When l left there I had no
appetite, was thin, weak and could
scarcely walk. The unrelieved dis
ease and the treatment had so reduced
me that could scarcely put one foot
before the other. I began taking S.
s. S., and the first bottle even had
telling effect upon me. My appetite
improved with the first dose, and /
gained flesh and strength rapidly. =
The disease began to pass away, and
very soon every trace of it was gone

and only giving temporary relief, as
the old line of treatment does. To
me there was new life in every dose.
