Notwithstanding the relapse last Saturday, Mr, Garfield is reported im j I roving. _____ And now Lapham is elected to fill vacancy occasioned by resignation < f Conkling. [f Sam Scott should keep the pocket book he found it will be because the Icsei does not take the papers. Conkling’s k-’ter commending the steadfastness of the friends who stood by him o the end, felly explains how “Mr. C: n Ung takes bis defeat very mildly.” The Monticello Times, Democratu > C J. Reynolds, publisher, came to hand Fi idav last, it makes a good appearance and hope it may do effective work in the cause of Democracy. .. The Utiea |N. Y.] Observer says •‘That Elbridge G. Lapham does not succeed Mr. Conkling; he merely keeps his seat vacant. The grt atest commonwealth of the Union is plunged down to the rank of dumb N-bray kaska and Minne ota and Kansas in the Senate, while tiny Delaware with her Bayard and small Vermont with her Edmunds tower into National prominence. 1 his is truly the Small thing.. The State of New York, in this hour of half-breed tiiumph, has reached the lowest depth cd' official humiliation. Below what we have to d y it is not possible to go.

NIORMAL ITEMS.

The Normal has just completed its third week. It shows a steady, healthy growth both in interest am’, numbers. Six new names have been added to the enrollment since our last commu nication which now reaches forty or more. W. Boyd Johnson. George 2. An trim, Samuel P. Thornton, James V. Pierce, Henry Roney, and, last bu. not least, Lee Glazebrook, are the latest arrivals. This is a strong force, stronger in force of intellect than i: numerical strength. Right glad to have you among us, boys ! The ideja of a County Norm;.! is l: long-u- air experiment, but has become a permanent thing in tm_- educational .ystem of the .cotin ; ■ There are nany reasons a s -- sion of the Normal ‘.!lbe I-- • cv.-ry summer and be wen sustain- - by the teacher *of the county.

Gibbon says, “The laws of a nation form the most instinctive portion ot its history.” The members of the history class are investigating United States History by making a study of her laws and find it quite interestingThe- Grammar class are worrying over the Constructions of infinitives and participles. Next week they will take up analysis. The Physiologists under Prof. Hoop' er are getting into the merits of their subject by illustrations with the organs of animals. The Misses Nettie and Ruby Bruce were compelled to quit school for the present on account of the serious illness of their mother. Nobmalite.

There ought to be a fine exhibition at the Fair in September or the agricultural productions of Jasper county. The Board of Directors certainly have been lioeral towards this class. They have abolished the 10 per cent, fee heretofore charged articles competing for premiums in the divisions of this department. In some of the divisions the list has been largely extended, and in most the premiums are increased in number and size. As it will cost nothing this fall to enter field and garden products, needlework, natural and artificial flowers, the products of the dairy, for exhibition and premiums, and as the premiums are liberal, there ought to be a spirit of generous emulation among

men and women, under these conditions, to contribute to the attractiveness of Floral Hall. It will be little extra trouble to bring a peck of corn, of oats, a half-bushel of potatoes, a piece of needle-work, a few pots cf flowers when one comes to see what Others have brought to the Fair. It Will cost nothing to show these things, and they may be awarded valuable prizes. It would be in the highest degree commendable to the enterprise and industry of the people to have better display than ever in lloral Haji tills season.

Union Township Items Weather warm at present. Plies and mosquitoes by the swarm. The late rains are reviving the com fields on the ridges. Sunday school leunion at the Pleasant Valley school house next Sunday. The Morning Star Society, of Union, and the two societies of Keener will be represented. A general turn-out expected. Miss Minnie Gephart, of Monticello, is visiting her sister in this township. Union has four representatives at Normai, in Rensselaer. Others ex pect to attend the last part of the term. We have a poor opinion of the soli ity of young men who work all week and spend their earnings on Sunday for a “livery rig” just to win the smiles of a young lady. Boys, be a little more economical. “Lay up something for a rainy day.” Its the “livery rig” gratification, not you, the ladies care for. One can’t help but note the differ. > rente made by the Barkley correspondent to the Republican between a Democratic Trustee who votes fo l Republican candidate for County Superintendent and the Republican | Trustee who votes for a Democratic i candidate. In all fairness. Mr. coriomlent, if the republican truste e is a traitor to his party, is not the Democratic trustee equally a traitor • his?

The Continental Railway.

A SHORT ROUTE TO CHICAGO AND THE WEST NEARING CONSUMMATION More Particulars of the Gigantic Enterprise—The Engineers’ Report—Getting Over the Alleghenies A Powerful Competitor to Existing Roads. From N. Y. “Truth,” July 18th. A grand trunk railway from New York city to the Great West direct has engaged the attention of capitalists and business men for many years.— The business, which legitimately belongs to New York, has been diverted into other channels for the want of direct communication. The Pennsylvania Railway has developed that State and the New York Central the interior of New York State, and particularly Albany, from which point the grain business has been diverted to Boston and Portland.

The object of building this newline is mainly to keep the commerce of the Great West in New York city.— This city has no trunk -line to th e West. When the New York Central was projected it was only to Albahy, as Chicago had no existence at that time. It was then extended to Buffalo. When Chicago loomed up as a business centre the line was again extended to that point, via the Lake Shore road. The entire length of thi p road now is 980 miles. This line heg been of special benefit to Albany, and the interior cities, as it was the principal point for shipments East. EXISTING JUKES. The Pennsylvania Railway was originally organized from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh over the mountains, but

was gradually extended by acqusition of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago to the latter place. Subsequently this company leased the united railroad j of New Jersey and bro’t t e r line to New York. Philadelphia being nearer than New York, monoj - olized a laige share of the ; rain busi ness over that line, as the freights were lower. The total length of this line is 914 miles. The Baltimore and Ohio Railway being a short line between Chicago and the seaboard, is able % deliver freights in Baltimore at far lower rates than in New York, which has really built up that city in a commercial point of view. The Erie Railway was originally built from Piedmont, N. Y„ to Dunkirk, but sub- I sequently was brought to Jersey City, and afterwards by an arrangement with the Atlantic anti Great Western i ran their line to Cincinnati. They I are now proposing to run their line to Chicago. If this extension is completed as indicated, the distance to New York will be about 1,000 miles.

THE nrOEFTION. In view of these facts, some prora inent men, including Governor William Bigler, Governor Geary, William F. Schell. Judge Curtis and many others, both of New York and Pennsylvania, came to the conclusion that for the benefit of New York and the far West the time was approaching fcr building a direct trunk line from New York city to connect with Sc. Louis and Chicago, with Omaha as the terminus where it connects with/he Pacific Railway. Application was made first to the Pennsylvania Legislature for permission to build through that State, which was granted in several acts with usual privileges and the right of perpetual succession and exemption from taxation. Afterward the Legislature of New Jersey passed a number of acts of a similar character, with the exception of exemption from taxation. The State of Illinois also charters to the Continental Company. Through the States of Ohio, Indiana andjlowa the existing corporate rights of other compa nies were purchased, which gives a continuous line from New York City to the bridge over the Missouri at Omaha, which will unite it with the Union Pacific Railway. THE SURVSY. The company, upon the dequisition of all these franchises, immediately equipped a number of engineer corps, who were sent along the proposed line. The expense of all this has been nearly as much as it would cost to build an ordinary line. The original survey to Chicago made the proposed Ene 786 miles long, but further surveys were ordered which reduced it to 770 miles from New York to Chicago, and from New York to St. Louis 950 miles; which is 100 miles shorter than by the Pennsylvania; 250 than by the Erie; 220 less than the New York Centrhl anc 169 less than by the Baltimore and Ohio. The entire distance to Omaha by the Continental is 1,200 miles, which is 200 miles shorter than the Pennsylvania; 2 5 than by the Erie, and 265 nearer than by the New York Central, CONGRESSIONAL REPORT. In the year 1874 Congress took the matter into consideration, and a re port was made by the Committee on Railroads and Canals recommdnding the Government to aid the building of the Continental Railway, between New Y’ork and Omaha, by guarantee ing their bonds to the extent of $85,000,000. The Committee in their re*port state that w the decided and incieasing movement of the centre of population westward is such that the existing system of railways is now unequal to the requirements of the times.” The report goes on to say: “The existing trunk linesleadingfrom the Atlantic to the West were not constructed for economy in operation as freight roads. They were built in the Hist instance as local roads, with reference to local interests and not at all as their managers would now locate and build them. Ifhe remedy, it appears to your Committee, for existing evils, most easy and expeditious in its results of any other remedy proposed, and rendering with it direct benefits to the whole region betweep the Ohio River and the Lakes, as well as the entire West and Norti> west, now extending to St. Louis and Chicago, is the building of a doqble track railway, whose main line shall have its Eastern terminus in the waters of New York Harbor, its Western on the Missouri Riyer with two branches, one to Chicago and the other to St. Louis.** No one doubted at that time the entire feasibility of building a line from the Allegheny River to the Mis scuri, but it was thought that the difficulties through the mountains of Pennsylvania were almost insurmountable.

A WATER SHED DISCOVERED.

The surveys made by the engineers of the company have subsequently disclosed the existence of tablelands in the neighborhood of the forty first parallel of latitude, constituting a perfect water shed dividing the waters flowing into Lakes Erie and Ontario from those flowing to the Ohio and Atlantic Ocean. Through this tableland the line has been located, and but very few curves or heavy grades are necessary. The worst difficulties experienced are through the moun tains of Western New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

, The line is completely surveyed through New Jersey and Pennsylvania. After leaving the depot in New York Harbor the line passes across the isthmus, throug4 a portion of Greenville, over Newark Bay, and striking the southern part of Newark City ; thence to South Orange, Millstone, Chatham. Morristown, Green Village, Bridgeville, Hackettstown, Buddsville, Bridgewater and Belvidere, where it crosses into Pennsylvania, and through Wind Gap to Mauch Chunk, Summit, Bloomsburg, Lock Haven, Clearfield, Mahoning and Newcastle. In Ohio the principal places are Akron, New London and Findlay; and in Indiana,Fort Wayne, Silver Lake, and Rochester to Rensselaer, where a branch will run to Chicago, north and south to St. Louis. The main line then crosses the Illinois River, below fca Salle and the Mississippi, at Rock Island, and direct to Omaha. THE PRODUCE EXCHANGE INDORSES THE ROAD.

One of the leading members of the Produce Exchange said in relation to the road? “I have beeu a member of the Exchange for forty years, and the projectors of this road 1 are carrying out my ideas of thirty years ago. In order to allow us to compete with Baltimore, Boston and Philadelphia we must have low rates of freight and a direct trunk line to New York from Council Bluffs, and it is the only thing that can save the carrying trade to New York. This is the feeling of every pi eminent produce merchant in the city. #nd I know them all. There Is no question that Vew York has sufmuch. Money is easier in Baltimore and Boston than it is here, and

it Is only because they pay less freights, which is a great advantage to shippers. We are going to stand by the Continental Railway Company, and if they want any money to help them through we will raise it for tnem.” The officers of the company are: President J. Kimberly Snead, of New York; Vice President, William H. Smith, of Illim is; Secretary. William Thorpe, of New York; Treasurer, A. G Day, of New York; Superintend ent, T. T. Onderdonk; Chief Engineer, J. E. Abbott. The company has already spent over $1.00,000 in its surveys and prospecting, and the road will open up a large and hitherto unproductive country, coal mines and ■ timber lands. It is expected that by i next Fall trains will be running over ! a portion of the road, but it will not i be completed before two years.
