1t has been noticed by many
that the cocks OF this city begin
growing some time before midnight.
This mas been construed to be a
fowl warning to the young boys
otthis city who never crawl in
through their windows before the
cocks begin TO crow. The NEWS
is able to give the true cause. Some
one in the vicinity of Fulton and
Main streets has the power OF
ventriloquism very fully develops
ed and this gentleman conceived
the idea Of starting the boys off
home early. Every night 81 about
ten o'clock this old and sedato cit
izen struts out into the street,
flaps his wings aud crows cro.7
that says he can whip any doggone
rooster in the state of Georgia.
The rooster Of his nearest neiy-
Dor sings out that he's another,
and every rooster in town is put
to growing.
Thus it will be seen that it is
not the interest the rooster take
in the boys that causes them to
crow so early, hut is SIM
ply the outcome of their gul
liUility.

RIDAY, NOVEMBER !, 1850,
LEBANON MUST GO

FORWARD! she can not, she musk
rot, retrogrusle one step backward 1T
Is too late in the day now, to talk of
past mistakes or recriminnte on tile
faaLts of others, we have the living
present with which to do; and we
must meet the responsibilities of the
Hood tide that is on us
Our town is building faster than the
most sanguinc expectations of the
greatest enthusiast; Notwithstanding
over fifty residences have been built In
the past six months, yet every house is
occupied and IN some houses there are
more than one family; none but a
croalSer ora pessimist will gainsay a
still hriahter future. Now the one
great question to our mind is, how to
give employment, regular and con-
slant, to the toiling masses who win
bread by the smack Of their sweat.
Emigrants and home seekers expect
some means of regular employment
our lands are rich and cheap enough,
and everything is here to please the
eye and charm the prospector, but
prudent man looks to something more,
'swhere are the toilers to gather?n We
must build factories-we must have
more power to do it with. 'sThe gods
help them that help themselves and
five want capitalists help Lebanon,
then Lebanon must first help herself.
There is plenty of money and brains IN
Lebanon to bring In the ditch, the
question is, have Wa the enterprise?
Helfinterest surely demands our united
aid earnest effort.
This ditch when completed, will add
from one to three hundred per cent to
real estate, will give employment TO
numbers and thus increase the volume
of trade. Every dollar invested will |
pay n large dividend to the share
holder, and will be the basis of a pros
perity .mdreamed OF. 1t will then be |
70 the interest Of the capitalist to come
and invest. aud they will gather here
like the eagles to the carcass.n
We call upon one and all without
regard to race or color or previous con-
dition, ITO agitate this question in such |
y way chat action, ACTION will take
the place Of twadling talk. If Albany
can take her power from here and make
money by Sc ling the power, surely We !
can accomplish as much with the water
VI our doors. Who will show their 10y
atty to Lebanon and receive the plaud-
is Of a grateful public by taking the
lead in this matter?
We solicit sugg stions, plans or wei
come any move towards the accom-
plishment of this one great enterprise
for Lebanon. More anon. !,
