Tin

ticket

selected on Wednesday

evening, by the several Wards for Coun oilmen, was the subject of very general commendation yesterday. There appears hardly a doubt now that the entire Republ ican ticket will be elected.

In the Second Ward Convention, on Wednesday evening Mr. Wilson Naylor •was placed in nomination without his knowledge or consent, and withdrew his name almost immediately. This statement is due to Mr. Naylor as an explanation of the vote on that occasion.

John Lee, Esq., the energetic President of the Logansport, Crawfordsville and Southwestern Railroad, paid our town a vista few days since and gave us the most cheering report of the prospects of this enterprise. He informs us that he hart every reason to believe that work will be commenced on the line between this place and Crawfordsville within short period of time—perhaps within the next 30 days, with every prospect of completion during the present season.—Rockrille Republican.

"The city of Terre Haute is governed by the Democracy. The people there are abont to enter into an election for members of the Council. The Eatress gives voters an interesting fact to think about when they come to make choice of public guardians for the ensuing year. The city tax duplicate for 1868 amounted to §7,633,841. The duplicate of 1869 foots np $8,292,200, an increase of nearly threequarters of a million of dollars. The rate ot taxation under Republican rule was 90 cents on the one hundred dollars, but with the large increase of taxable property, the appreciation of the value of money, the diminution of the necessity for expenditures, and the entire absence of any public improvement to justify it, the Democratic Council raised the rate from 90 to 95 cents. i®

Tile New Rahjroad East.—Other engagements prevented us from accepting the kind invitation to make one of a party that-went out the new Indianapolis road Wednesday evening, brief mention of which was made in yesterday's" paper. A friend who joined the party furnishes us the following:

On the arrival of the eastern train a special car was in waiting to receive the party. Among the passengers were Gen Morris, President of the road, J. LCozard, Chief Engineer, Samuel Whinney, Assistant Engineer (in charge of the Ter re Haute division), J. D. Herkimer, general Superintendent of the I. & St. L. R. R., O. Townsend, Vice-President of the Cleveland, Columbus, and Indianapolis and Cincinnati Railroad, Thomas Wessler, Vice-President of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad and also Hon. Bayles Hanna, E.|B. Allen andRob't Cox, of this city. Immediately on leav ing town we were surprised at the smoothness and fine condition of the road. For ten miles it is well ballasted and completed, and we venture the assertion that nine-tenths of the roads now in operation are not in, as good condition.— The track now entends sixteen miles from this city, and is within three miles of the great prospect town of Carbon work is progressing rapidly, track is being laid at the rate of half a mile a day. The iron used in the construction of this road is from Yotxngstown, Pennsylvania, and the Lochiel rail of Cleveland, Ohio— the best American brands, and but little if any, inferior to the celebrated best Welsh iron. This plan of using American iron is certainly most commendable in thiB company, and should be imitated by every like corporation that has the interest of the country at heart. We noticed an improvement on the Fish joint, by which the nuts are prevented from becoming loose and dropping off, thus obviating the most serious objection to the us&of this great invention it is simple and effectual. The scene along the line is a busy one. At the gravel pit, three miles east or north of town, we saw trains of cars and a large number of men taking out gravel, which for ballasting is of the finest kind, and is found in inexhaustable quantities close to the surface and near the main track.

At the end of the line we found several old passenger cars, and upon inquiry were told they had been converted into regular "boarding houses on wheels," where men were well fed and comfortably lodged. As the work progresses these cars are moved forward, thus saving a large auopnt of time and keeping the quarters of the men always conveniently near. We understand the work along the whole line is being pushed forward with great energy, and that it- is the intention to have the road open and ready for business by the Wth of July. We call attention to the plan upon which the .road is being constructed, as it is superior to that of al most every other* road in the State, namely: the maximum curvature in no instance exceeds two and a half degrees, and the maximum grade is never greater than thirty-six feet to the mile in other words, there is no curve around which a passenger train may not pass, with perfect safety, at the highestrateof speed, and no grade up which a heavy freight may not ascend with ease. This is a feature of very great importance in the building of roads that ever expect to make any pre. tensions of being first-class, and if they fail in this, no amount of subsequent labor or expenditure of capital will enable them to successfully compete with roods' con. structed upou this plan.

It is the intention of t^e company to make this a first-class road from the beginning. So far that wish has been con sumated, and if the employes upon the remainder of the road are as energetic and efficient as at this place, we doubt not that'it will immediately take rank as one of the first roads in the Slate.

We saw coal cropping out at many places along the line, thus indicating that great source of our wealth was pres ent here.

Alter yisiting other pfoctes aqd seeing things of interest we entered the car and started home. All were well pleased wiih the trip, and the parties from a distance, expressed themselves as highly pleased with the manner in which the road is built. The evening that had been so fine v*a now lowering with a storm, and ere long a heavy fall of rain began. But as we reclined on the comfortable seats and sofas, the storm passed unheeded without and we fell to thinking, not exactly how Ant, we live in this day and age, but how much. The cry of "this way for the street cars" broke in upon our thoughts: we wera safely landed in Terre Haute "that splendid railroad centre." T.

Reply of Professor Co*.

lb the Editor of the 2nd. Journal The attack on the State Geologists report and map of Clay county, in your is-

bears on its face the impress of misrepresentation. My usual custom is to treat all such articles with silence, especially when they do not emanate from competent authority but as my report is not putin the hands of the public, to speak foritfrif itjgiay be attention to ffie pg^iich

D. W."il. says: "US "fffte GeoL represents completed railroads where there are no roads, towns where there are no towns, and coal shafts where there are no coal shafts. The town of Carbon— which only exists on paper—in the interest of those who own it, helsurrounds .it. with coal shafts' jrhere none ©c&fln fact, and makes it the center of the developed field, when he knows it to be wholly undeveloped.

With the exception of the switches which run out from the Terre Haute and Indianapolis Railroad, only three railroads are represented within the boundary of Clay couutyj vizi: Terre Hafite & Indianapolis Railroad, Indianapolis and St. Louis and the North and South Railroad.

Of these theT. H. & I. R. has been in operation for many years. The I. & St. L. R. R. is referred to in the report at page 22 as follows: 'T^ie Indianapoliaand-St. Louis Railroad is ilbt yet completed, the work of construction is being rapidly pushed forward, and it is confidently believed that trains will be running through on this road early next summer. As this road also cross® the "block-coal belt" in Clay county, some five miles north of tlie'Terre Haute and Indianapolis Railroad there is every reason to believe that it will furnish along its line equal facilities for coal mines and blast" furnaces." On the same page 22, the North and South Railroad is referred to as a charteded road,and is further marked on 'the accused by ffcW. M-, 9i^"ai|^tt jjpwan example of i* ''cofl-sftu.flf ljbpafccjUwnj^re no shaft exists." At page 47 of the report is the following reference to the coals of Clay county—represented on the map. "By reference to the map of Clay coun. ty, which accompanies this report, the outcrop, andtmining ahafts, andi. ail-coal-bed, are de^gnatef by a Ifl^ck "square (US'' °nd the equivalency of the coal-beds by" letters, corresponding with those of the continuous section."

Following this page the locations of the shafts and worked mines are referred to, and it is distinctly stated on page 58, that "the coal-mine of McClelland & Son is reached by a switch or branch, xoad from the Terre Haute and Ihdianipolis railroad, and is now one of the most northerly mines worked in the county."

On the same page (58) will be found the only reference made to the town of Carbon a surveyed and laid-off town taken from the maps of the Indianapolis and St. Louis railroad, which was .borrowed of the officers of the read for the purpose of obtaining further inclination regarding the topography of the north part of the county. It is distinctly referred to as a recently laid-off town. D. W. M. says: "I have marked developments around this town of Carbon, where no developments have been made." In this he js grossly mistaken. Wherever I have marked coai, there coal will be found, and in most places has been well proved by digging into, tfre-seam.-jBe? sides this, the block coal'has been proved to exist over a considerable territory around Carbon by numerous bores.

I might continue to quote from the re port to substantiate the accuracy of the map which aCCOtnpanieTit","btlt~f' tTtfBt' that, enough has been done for the present to show that the charges of D. W. M.

have np foundation }n act, wit..inerely[ '..niT. spring from his wild imagination. I work for the best interests of tjie State ot Indiana, and the people thereof, as my report and maps will show," and not, as is falsely charged by .P., W. Jt., for railroad corporations, My rapid development of the block coalwver an extended belt of country, and giving pttblicitv to the facts, has caused the lander to rise "from $15 to $100 per acre ^hilejet in the hands of the farmers.

In a few days, however, my report will be' ready for distribution, and tb that I refer for my vindication. E. T.Cox,'"
