Some of our 'wealthy-citizens," ; we are f sorry to say, : are lading the part bf wheel horse9 in tbeoffort now making' to get the City to take' additional stock in'this road, bo as' to insure ; its completion. They seetn lo be Wilting To sfacrifice not only the 850,000 already taken by "the city"; through their influence, but the con-1 ditional stock of over 860,000,T as well as the future ' prosperity ' bf Richmond, that depends largelyfon the' completion of this toad to FtJ Wayne. ' We' flattered Ourself -that -o'u citizens were a' unit in this Vital matter, arid that self inters est that has always been 'considered ! the lever by which all men coald be induc-1 ed to take part in any public or private enterprise, was so clearly at the bottom of this project.-' that no argument was necessary to be' used to'-indnce them to give their aid and assistance for its consummation we yet think so, ' and,, as a spur to bring the wheel-horaes !- tot this natural feeling,' we invite their attention to the calculations of a Cambridge cor i. respondent; in last Wednesday's Cincin nati5 Gazette.lo 'Speaking of ., the - past situation br 'our neighboring town' of Cambridge, this correspondent says : "For a long time there seemed to be little hope of a renewal of life,: and the place Wits about, becoming resigned to a premature death, when all at . once new prospects of the most "cheering character opened ' up."1 The Indianapolis and Cincinnati Junction Railroad pushed - a branch from Connersville through Cam bridge, to Newcastle. ? The Indianapolis and Cincinnati built the White Water Valley road, running through Cambridge 4 to Hagerstown. Both " these roads pass the Chicago and Great Eastern, will divert from Richmond, nearly i not quite, all the trade ofp Northern Indiana, and throw it through Cambridge. The ' JefTersonville railroad !'is extending pa' branch from Ruebville to Cambridge, and will thence continue It on to Union Cit3',: at - which point a connection will undoubtedly be made with the Fortland & Union,' which extending on to Fort Wavne, ' will con solidate' with the Grand Rapids' A; Indiana. :U ,; hrur i id ,r-;.!l . Thus it will be seen that the prospects are that Cambridge City will soon become one of the greatest railroad centers in Indiana. Over the old Indiana Central it communicates with Indianapolis . and .Columbus, and thence over other i lines with all westward and- eastward , points. Through the Jefferson ville extension it reaches Louisville and all points ' South; and via Union City,reaches Fort Wayne and the extreme north -of Michigan. t It hast a direct route to Chicago, oyer . the Chicago &, Great Eastern, and two com peting routes the " Whitewater Valley 1 and the Indianapolis & Uincinnati Junetion to Cincinnati. - .

Governor Morton's u ; ""; Richmond Speech. ; ;ft On" the 15th of July the President sent a message ; to Congress, in response to a resolution calling for "information on the subject of reconstruction, in the :' concluding paragraph of which he intimated an opinion that by overturning . the existing 'govern , ments in the relel States, and controlling them by military authority, bile the process of reorganizing new governments was going on, Congress would make the Government of the United States liable for i tlie debts contracted by the existing State govern- , merits and for the old debts of the same States created anterior, to the war. ThU'proiKisition was sonie- " what startling, and gave rise at once to an important ilebate in the Senate, in the course of which Senator ilendricks said that Governor t Morton, in a spc-cch some two years ago, had avowed and elaborately ar- ' gued the same doctrine. In this Mr. Hendricks was entirely mistaken. We do not believe he intended to do any injustice to Governor Morton and think he spoke from a vague recollection of a speech made some time previous, of which he had no copy before bim A little reflection, however, would baro satisfiel him that" it was imiossible for' Governor Morton to hive discussed ill 1865 the proposition presented . in the President's message '6f July, 18R7, which relates to the effect 6f overturning exietintf State Gov- ! ernments, "while these governments in the summer of 1865 were onlv In process of formation. At the time the speech was made to which Mr. Hendricks referred, the question was r.ot before the public, and in the nature of 'things could not have been. In that speech, made in Richmond. September,' 1863, Governor Mort- -ton discussed the question then begitftrtng to'attract . considerable attention, of treating the rebel Statf s as conquered provinees, tlie Stages tbemselvets hs extinguislied, tbair territory as acquired by conquest, to be formed into new States, as if former .States had never r existed. And among the arguments be urged agaiost .that theory he Said that it were adopted "it would .be insisted upon at once by 1 the creditors of those ' States that .the , Government of "the , United i States 1 would be liable for their debts, as for those of any .other conquered province or" State.""1 He offered no argument whatever for this liability, expressed - no ' opinion-, didnot undertake to state the law, and said nothing about the efiect of suppressing the existing ; State Governments. What ha said was prophetic, that if we adopted this theory we would be called apon to pay'the rebel debt ; that if the Government assumed towards the rebel States the same , relation that it would occupy towards a foreign State that had been' conquered, the creditors would at once treat i the theory as a fact, and press the Government for . payment off their debts. , He ?ould not doubt but that '" sueh elaims would be urged, and since then the peoi pie of the Cnited States, fearing that the assumption of the whole rebel debt would.' be forced upon 'them under one protsxt or another, have sought to protect tliemselves from such a calamity by a constitu-, tional aiuenJinent. To show that we do not misstale the effect of his speech, we will qvtote what the Governor eaid, and all that he said on the "subject of the rebel debt: ir 1 ; ,-.,'; - : ,- ;f. : "Another consequence which would flow frcm the admission of that doctrine, (and 1 propose to argue that at some other time,) would be that we would be . called upon to pay the rebel debt. If we admit that these States were out of the Union tor one moment, and were to be regarded .in the light of belligerents, jt would be insisted upon at once that when we took !bem back we took them with their debts, as we would aka any other conquered province or State. ' I do not propose tu argue that question anv fun her at this - time." ( ,r ,T " From this extract it fs clear that the principle to which Governor Morton- referred had no connection with the proposition iu the President's message which he is charged with having endorsed in advance. The , President's proposition is, that to abolish the existing governments in the ebel States and control them by, military authority while new ,ous , are being formed, makes the Government of the United States liajble for their debts, a question which did not and cir.ld not arise m 1355 ; white the point to which the Governor referred, but did not argue, was' the action which would be taken by the creditors of the rebel bbK p" th.ett:" f?'f States which had been conquered. It will also be seen" thaVtfie Governor ! not 'only did not argue the proposition he alluded to, but stated expressly that ho would noUd trei '! IsiJ --i;: "' ' ; On tlie .next day after, this dabate in the Senate, the subject of Gpveruor Morton's opinion was lugged into thellouwTof Representatives by Mr. Xiblack, of this State obviously for no Other purpose than to furnish an opportunity for making a damaging, statement against him. Mr. Julian introduced into the House a resolution denouncing what it declared to be the doctrine of the President's nes-age, which we have been considering, upon which the following colloquy took place : , , , ' "Mr. Niblack -Id-ire to inquire of my colleague whether Governor Morton, of Indiana, and now Senator from that State, did not while Governor avow the same doctrine, and ague it very ably in a carefnlly prepared speech in 1835, at Richmond, Indiana, in the gentleman's own district t " - "Mr. Julian-If I recollect the facts, I think the i Governor of our State did avow and argue it at the ; time and place mentioned. I am very sure, however, : that be regrets the avowal deeply, io common with all his Republican friends. I now desire to amend the resolution by inserting the words 'their allies and sympathizers' at theend of the word "traitors. " , It will be seen by reference to w hat Governor Mor- ; ton did.'sayj that Mr. Julian and Mr. Hendricks were both at fault as to the purport of bis language, u The , first of Mr. Johnson's State governments was not organized until October 17th, 1835, some weeks after the dirtebf tlm Rfcfcmond speech, and lt Is - the suppreesionxef these organization that -the It-esiaent- , SUjgesU will make, Uie t m'ed States Jjah'ej for tha dsbtsof thareWs?""- " " "

The cities of Ind ianapolis, kvansvllie, Liataj'ette, lerre Haute and Laporte havol)ecn canvassed with, very satisfactory results, while a large number of counties have been ex-plol-ed with equally good results. The whole amount raised " in pur State, and, paid to the American Bible Society, after defraying the expenses of: agency and incidental ; is a little' over' 822,000, which shows a falling off from the previous year of 82,000. , This is in conseqnence of the money pressure, and the loss ff two" wheat crops" in succession; with other 'causes which' contributed to diminish the receipts ; we hope however the present year ill s be one of, success, and that a large increase will be the result of hard toil for our great work. We commence another year with 123 auxilliary Bible Societies and 525 Branch Societies ; i total 648 Bible Societies in our State; '2,700 persons swho sustain Official relations to these societies and comprise the various Boards of Managers ; 1,800 local or unpaid school district agents, whose work is a gratuity, and to whom we look for the accomplishment of great good in our work ; about 1,200 co-operating churches, with nearly as many ministers, whose pulpits are al-waj-s open for; the Bible Agent, and to whom we are largely indebted for the success of the past year, and to whom we tender our heartful gratitude for every favor, and ask in the name of Him who gave us the Bible, and in the name of the American Bible Society, for a continuance of the same ardent cb operation. G." on the Rampage Again. The Tribune philosopher is out of humor again. Since his little coquetting arrangement with JeS. Davis at Richmond, he has been more irritable than ever if such a thing were possible. Some weeks since he gave the Union league, of New York, a blast, which his friends had hoped had relieved his stomach of its nauseousness. and that thev would be snared : any further exhibitions of bad temperat references) to his attempt to play the role of the philanthropist on . the occasion refcred to. They were, howerer, doomed to disappointment. Almost every allusion to that unfortunate period in the Greeley history is sure to call from him some harsh remark. His latest exploit in this matter is in reply to the volly of resolutions poured in upon him by the various associations ot tbo "Grand Army of the Jepublic" throughout the country, who were justly indignant at his attempt to : make treason respectable, and smooth over with honied words the recent "unpleasantness" between the .North and South. Here is what he has to say to the G. A. R. : "We denounce this new secret organization as inimical to the Constitution and Union. It will be a sad day for. our party when soldiers find no better work than to prowl over the battlefields of the past, and dig up the bodies of the slain. The country wants peace,, and rest, and harmony and justice. These men want a distracted country, that offices may be gained. They would make America a Mexico, peace would be sent to sleep with Turks and infidels, .. and, instead of Union, they would 'the woefulest di- . vision make that ever fell upon this cursed earth." .- That is pretty hard language to use of men who periled their lives in defence of the Government, while , ho, himself, was safe from rebel bullets and enjoying the c-mforts ot his bome in ev lork, or "hou-noo- ", ing'" with such rebels as Jake Thompson, George X. i Sanders and Colorado Jewett, at Niagara. 1 j . ben Air. Greeley can point to a record as bright, and one that will live in history as will that earned by the members of this patriotic organization, it will be time enough for him to heap epithets uj.on them and charge that they would make America a Mexico.

They were taken from the forest where they were found, each with a large ball of earth about its roots, and thus far it appears that the experiment is. to prove successful. ,'1'liey are at least twenty years old, and their removal cost thirty-five dol.ars for each tree. There is uo reason why trees may not thus be translated, by using proper care. In the city where trees hare to .make a struggle for life, wjighed down by the stone flagging and poisoned by gas, it might not be practicable to .'do this ; but in the country it . may ; be. First we. chop down all the . trees with a reckless eagerness : then we slowly and painfully replace them." JV. T. Eoening Gaxtte. ' - ' v..J : T-io work of transplanting full grown trees is no novelty, it being of", very common occurrence in England, it' not here. The usul method of doing it, a3 wer have seen it preformed repeatedly, is to have a heay two-wheeled tmck with a massive beam or pole, twetr to thirty teet long-, longer if necessary. The roots of the tree are cut around so as to leave a large ball of earth attached,' tlie machine; is wheeled up, lifted to a perpendicular position and bound firmly to the tree, and by a rope at the end of the beam it is brought to a nearly horizontal position," when it is drawn to the desired spot, where a hole has been dug to receive it. The guide rope beiug slowly loosened, the weight of the roots brings the tree up standing, and the work of transplanting can then be completed. Sererel fine trees in this city that have teen, or aie to be cut down, because in the way of Decessary improvements, could easily be saved by thjs method of transplanting.' Cleveland Herat J. " .. A Thriftv Farmer. A farmer in the province of Limberg, in France, has hit upon a curious way of deriving profit from horseflesh. ; He keeps some two hundred fowls, which are the fattest in the country, owing to the way in which", he feeds them. Every "Week he buys two cr three dead horses, which he cuts up and boils. The broth is given to his pigs, that seem to enjoy this novel soup very well, and thrive admirably upon it. The meat that has been used for the broth is hashed and given to the fowl, aud what remains of the horses carcasses is sold to the refiners, who convert it into lampblack. The eirgs of his fowls he sends over to England, realizing six centimes apiece for them, and the fowls go the same way when they are done laying eggs: .-; . .'- ; . American Feet. ;. . . -.',,.

' - General Grant was before the Judiciary Committee to 'testify about the execution of the Reconstruction law and his- correspondence and interviews ' with the President. ,rt. ,." t. . ? v .'-..!..' He was called at the instance of the Democratic members of committee, but he gave atterence to such radical sentiment', and expressed himself 83 clearly and determinedly in favor of carrying out the law in good faith, that there has Wen loud muttering among' the Democratic members.: :They charge, him with, catering to the Kadical sentiment with having sold himself for a nomination, and with many other hienous sins.' The Democracy are unreasonable. Gen. Grant kept silence until the effort of Johnson, Stanberry and Black to evade the execution of a wise and necessary law of Congress compelled , him to speak. A regard for the interests of the couutry forced bim to make his positron known." The fact that a man so averse to speakings has been compelled to take sides, is a sufficient condensation of the aims and purposes of the clique he is assisting to crush. , A Word for Walrnssia. '!J-Twenty American citizens residing at Victoria, Vancouver's Island, have written a letter to Secretary Seward congratulating him on the aquisition of Russian America by the United States. In the opinion of these gentlemen, the climate of the new territory west of the C ascade Mountains, as high as 6.) degrees, and of the numerous islands bordering its shores, is milder than . that of Isew England. The pine forests are immense in extent, and lumber can be shipped with great ease from the capacious harbors lining the coast. Mines of gold, silver, copper, lead, iron and coal are known to exist, Many rich specimens of these minerals having been brought down to Victoria. Although in agricultural capabilities our new territory is inferior to territories lying south of it, yet there are large tracts of land which, under cultivation, will produce most of the cereals as well as the hardier vegetables of the temperate zone. ' ... IMPEACHMENT. The proceedings of the House of Representatives on i;i peachment, indicate that a majority is opposed to the proposition. Mr. Boutwell's resolution that Congress, when it adjourns, shall adjourn to meet again on the 16th of October was voted down by 84 to 36, and a subsequent resolution offered by Mr. Stevens, re: quiring the Judiciary Committee to submit the evidence taken by them," so that it might be printed, was lost by thirteen majority. Mr. Wilson, chairman of the committee then offered a resolution authorizing the committee to print the testimony and report, when the latter is ready, and lay the same on the desks of members, on tho first day of the next session. This resolution was laid on the table on motion of Mr. Stevens, who evidently desired to be rid of a subject unlikely to find favor with a majority of the House. Those favorable to impeachment generaly voted for an adjournment to October, but the House fixed upon November 13th, as the day for the next, adjourned meeting. i We are not sorry to learn that the impeachment programme is rot likely to be carried out. Congress is master of the situation, the people will elect another President in sixteen months from this time, and Mr. Johnson's hands are so completely tied that he can do little mischief during the intervening period. We see no necessity for impeachment, therefore, even if the grounds for it were more substantial than we think they are.-Ind. Journal. . .. - . Republicans at Work. .
