THE C. H. & w. R'Y.
A Voice from sinking Spring Concern
ing the Features Of the Pro.
posed Route.

Sinking Spring is Village of two
hundred and fifty people and is located
in Highland county. The corpora.
ton line extends to the western boun-
Diary Of Pike county. The principal vo.
cation of the pt ople in the vicinity
around about the Springs is farming,
such as wheat, corn, oats and grass. Or
chards flourish. Apples, peaches, pears
and grapes do finely. Such stock as
hogs, cattle, horses and sheep are raised,
and are an average breed of thorough.
bred pedigree. The soil is mostly red in
color, with lime stone subsoil, varying
from a few inches to several feet in depth.
Some small bottoms in Brushcreek town.
ship have dark loan soil, and is fine
wheat and grass land. But few rough
bills. The tops of these are covered
with layers of sandstone from one inch
to ten feet in thickness. In color it
runs from clear white gray to bright
red in different hills and lodges. 1t is
easily quarried, and on exposure to the
elements is hardened. and will last in
buildings for ages. There are immense
deposits of limestone in lower stratas-
fine building material. This is the cen.
ter of the fine mari beds, which makes
the finest public roads and street, and
easily quarried, resembling before quar-.
ried, limestone. It will cement down
and make far better surface and last
longer than gravel. 1t does not require
crumbling, as limestone or free stone
before using, for pike or street surfaces.
The proposed Cincinnati, Hillsboro &
Wellston Railway will pass through this
vicinity. The terminal will tap the rich
coal mines at California, and fine gravel
and glass sand. At Piketon is the rich
bottom of the Scioto river, the Egypt
corn valley. Thence to Idaho, Pike
county, to Latham and Byington, Pike
county, are immense lime stone deposits,
fine for building. Thence to Sinking
Hpricg. where there are rich deposits of
free stone, lime stone and mari. Thence
to Hillsboro, the next important city
and the largest, on to Shackleton, High.
land county, on to Fayetteville, Brown
county, where there is no building stone,
on through rich corn, wheat and to.
bacco valley to Milford, in Hamilton
county. Nearly all are rich valleys for
agricultural pursuits. All of this pro.
posed railway is an undeveloped coun.
try without railway, and on the same
there is more than one million dollars
fills and cuts now completed.
. The proposed Railway is thirty miles
the shortest route from the richest coal
fields to the largest city in Ohio. And
there would not be day that it would
not have all the coal it conld furnish
cars to carry. 1t would strike Hon. Har.
vey Wells Belt Railway, at Jackson,
Hamden and all the princi.
pal coal mines and the jackson Coal
Mines" owned by Messrs. Jones and
Morgan. This coal is the freest of sulphur
and clinkers of any coal in Ohio. The
stone deposits in Pike and Highland
counties are marvellous, and the shipping
hcilities are unexcelled. The mari beds
when opened will give employment to
many men in quarrying, hauling, &c.
