Now that Richmornl lirts responrtc-1 arul Fort Wayne riiVrlpjo to the titiihlmg of the Fort Wayrto and IJit hniond rond, through Allen and Wayne cenntie, it now become" the people of Harnlolph to do their dnty. It will require about two thousand dollar pr luilo to make the road rendy for the Iron. This must he raised ; and to tlo this our capitalists must be liberal. We nnderstand several gentlemen have intimated very liberal subscriptions. Let no man refuse to do something, and we can raise the amount without rtiflicnlty. Some may ollV-r excuses, sayinp; they liavc been liberal heretofore. That is true ; but p:it liberality did not accomplish the task, and therefore to secure what has been expended, and insure success, let all be liberal a second time The committee who was appointed to ascertain what material aid Ohio roads would render us, report favorably ; they have had the assurance from the officers of these roads that they will take the bonds of the coinpany and furnish the Iron, or they will furriish it and take their pay in the earnings of the road. The Grand Kapids and Indiana rail road company, by its Hoard of Direcors, passed a resolution saying that as soon as the road-bed was ready for the iron, that company was ready, willing, and anxious for consolidation. That company has a million and forty thoumkiicI acres of tho Dest land in Michigan, worth ten million dollars, which will be sold and will pay all the indebtedness for building the road from Little Traverse Way to Kichmond, leaving the earnings of the road to he divided between the stockholders, and such men as Judge Hannah see that theftockof this road must be more valuable than that of any road now in the West, and this is why he favors it. There is money in it, and that is why capitalist" are taking an interest in it? completion.

We hope soon to announce that he will lo on the road speaking to the people, as he is a gentleman of talent and indtieiice. From the shore, it will be seen that the friends of this important Road, are alive in Randolph, and are doing their dnty in urging an increase on their former liberal subscription! of stork, in order to secure tha project bevond a preadveotnre, and wa have no Ambt from the information We receive of the spirit manifested by our "Socrum," neighbors, that soon the requisite fuoda will be raised and the Cincinnati and Fort Wayne Railroad, will no lotigur be a ironttmplai hue ; but a fixed fact.

Iirict, subject to the dectaou of a Union Conrention ! to be bold at Coaaersrille on the 2th alu, j Prwriows to the call for that Cowreotion, aome acI tion had Jmb IiiIittt by a sxtruow el tuia ItiAUtct, kioai j in(T toward a nomination. . This action, ts was claimad by' other portions of the District, bad been mformaj nd without any proper or fair notice to the counties in which aa expression wss claimed to bave been made sod without any notice to the balance of the trlct- ' ' ' ' ' ' ' i This Conrention wss undoubteJ.V called in good ' faith, snd with the hope snd intention of roakmjr; some srrangcmefit by which a nomination conll be mad that j would satisfy the entire District. Judge Kibby and spyself LaJ both been announced r as candidates, and both, "subject to the decision of this ConTention." . , " i The name of no other candidate, as far as I hare ' heard, was before the Conrention or the Union toters. ' ' i s.f . i I snd my friends went into this Convention in good faith, and inten led to be governed by its taction. It met and found ft expedient, m accordance with the spirit ia which it was called, and to carry oat its purpose and intent, thit of making a fair nomination that would b satisfactory to tho entire District, it refer be mnivr back to a rote of tlie Union electors of the District, to be Uken on the 23d inst. I could not complain of this action, and cheerfully acquiesced. But I a tu informed that Juile kibhy, the only other candidato ejiokeu f,airows himself unwilling to submit to UiU at tuu, a rxl intouds being a candidate, regarlesa of any rote that may be taken iu accordance with the actiou of said ConrentioB. Furthermore, at a meeting of the Union Central Committee of Wayne conn tjr, held in Richmond, on Tuesday the 12th inst., it was determined to recognize the hi. minating election held on the first Monday in April last as being a valid and binding expression of the choice of the Union party in Wayne county, snd the Chairman of said Committee was authorired to represent said county in any Convention, emmittee or hard of canvassers which may asseraMe hv th Ditriet, and cast the vote of the county, or of thewveral townships thereof, areording to the result of naul election. Hueh beic! th fact, and Wayne county containing a majority of the Union voters of the Dtstrict, it would be useless for the balance of the District to go tbronyh with the formality of a nominating election, as in the end it would be barren of producing the desired result. This effort at a satisfactory adjustment having fuitod, and the action of the Convention being rendered nugatory by Judge Kibby and hia friends, I now announce myself as a candidate for Judre of the Court of C'oinumu 1'leas for the Sixth Judicial District, suljeet to the decision of the voter of the District. Vet my anxiety for harmony and unity is such, that I aut willing, at any tiun, to submit the whole matter at issue, to any fair uiuthod of obtaining an expression of the will of the Union electors.

F.very exchange that comes t ns contains the proceeding ot some ciwinty Coavcauon, wbeie soldiers hare been nominated as candidates for public offices. If this thing' is suffered to go on, we would like to know hat is to become of the present stock of politicians, who have been sacrificing ttesaaelves lor the public good, during the many loug years f war just passed, bT holding fast to those ofhees that pay large salaries, and exerting themsolves in every conceivable way to induce oilier taen toenter tha srjny and do the fighting.

Wise Suggestions touching North-West-A. iki. e'" Jnterests. At a late meeting in Boston of West-
I ern guetts of the roard of Trade, an able and sensible Bpeeca. was made by J. W. Crooks. President of the Michigan Central Railroad a man of "experience and ' sagerrtf as -well as targe-hntnanityTHIs words deserve the thooghtfal consideralion of all: "And now I may mention a subject which has often given in c, as a Western Railroad manager, cause for aaxiety. It is the want of a more steady and reliable market fof ihe prodnee of the greatfoodproducing region. Its power of production have hardly begun to be developed, but even now it is without a ma;ket for its products. The; natural buyers of surplus food are the manufacturers, anl the great body of these are too far froia us. England does not import food front this country until she has exhausted those nearer home, wnich usually supply nearly all she requires. Sometimes a short crop will bring her here for a considerble amount, an 1 run up prices so high to stimulate over production, and render the 6urpius thereafter more unwieldy, than ever. Estimating the growers portion of the price received at an average of 2b cents per bushel for cqrn, and 60 cents for wheat, the exports of breadstuffs for the last 18 years have yielded the growers an average of about tliir teen millions of dollars per annum, rLsiDg as high as 834,800,000, and falling as Low as 8?60,000 per annum, some years more than forty times as great as otliers, yielding to the nation a maximum of bat a little over a dollar per head, and sometimes falling below three cents. This outlet is too insignificant at best, and too unreliable at all times, for so impoitant an interest in our national twuomj. It has not prevented the price of corn to the farmer in Illinois from fLUn; to ?ight cents per bushel, when it is sometimes over eighty. It is not a wise arrangement of the world's economy fVr those who raise a surplus of food ac l those who have a deficiency to be uepura led by a thousand miles of land carriage- and 3000 miles of ocean. Thus situate'., it is no wonder that the agriculturalist and the manufacturer, who should bcruitural allies, meet so seldom and to such, sjnall purpose. W"ho pay s for this anamolons condition T t! lines, for the transportation of raw matt-ruU and food from this country to the Kuropean nuinut jctarer .1 rf a. portion of the product back again'.' The Western producer mikes a large contribution in the lower jrice aud reduced d ice, ami the operative a very Iarjwcontribution in wages: and, shame to the 'nations! long hours of childhood's labor, briiijfini; ignoranoo and degradation, misery and want, into hundreds 01" thousands of whatoit;ht to be happv and cheerful homes. It is claimed in England that her cheaper llor will always make it for our interest to employ her people to do our manufacturing. Without questioning the unselfishness of this advice, its soundness may wt! doubted. A hundred thousand educated, think in j if. erntives will invent, in a short time, more siniplf. yii processes, to chaapen the product, than will eui al tbs difference in wages, and, though cheap labor w.h xvail of these inventions, the j;ret result cheap product is due to the educated, higher class of labor. Anlong all the favors which tuitions boast, miv we tw .lelive.red from that of cheap labor; it wntihl lie fatal to th institutions of a self-governing people. It is tlie pro'ince of Boards of Trade those most useful orgaifizations to aid in seenring to our land the means oT most fully developing its resources. It is the du.-T of every well-wisher ot his kind to place the buirywhere they ran get food, to educate the ignorant, nit to restore men of all c4ori from slavery. "Wbenever the st;itjtri.n ot the West shall feel it: their dutv, in the Nation;,) Council, to promote home manufactures, tbey will know where to rind New England, and wrraa we are ail convince 1, and act upon the principle that agriculture, manufactures and commerce are natural allies, this people, who have had. of late, so mnch of common sorrow and of common jov. will not need to kill tuestorr of oar cniraon irlorv. forthat will tell its own to the nations of the whole I earth." The Balloon Excitement. The announcement having gone forth that on Friday afternoon last a professional Aeronaut was to make an ascension faom the Wayne County Fair Grounds in our neighboring city of Rich mond, divers oi tlie hopetuls here wereon the alert, anticipating a visit in the direction of Eaton. The afternoon was. clear and beautiful, and the wind in a. favorable direction to waft it hither. Sure enough, about 4 o'clock of the day aforesaid, a large class ballon was plainly ia view, about one mile in a north westerly direction from town, and some two hundred feet above the tree tops. The supply of gas being then partially exhausted, it began to descend, and soon, after found a locality in one of John Van Doren's fields. As it was understood, that an aeronaut had gone up with the aerial traveller, imagination was quicklr at work to get a glimpse of him. Shortly after, a 'reliable' individual had seen htm waving a small white flag another was quite certain he had seen hini peering his head out from rme tide of the balloon. (A good joke that. ) But it was finally ascertained that ne individual biped was to be found, tctii nor without the balloon. A self-consfituted delegation brought it to town, shortly after reaching mother Earth. MaJa me linmor that wonderful reporter says a novel bill accompanied the balloon on its shipment to Richmond, something after this wise for services rendered: Dr. to proprietor of land on which balloon lrapped,' -$15; to farmer S., far hard travel in tracing it up, 85; to discoverer of exact lighting poiut, $10; to drayage, $5; and various minor charges of atsist-uU spectators, probably not over 8-'0. This very moderate and modest bill, it is said, was actually repudiated by the Aeronaut, who, rather than foot such demands, swore they might take his highflyer for pay. That's all We heard about it Ettw ( Ohio) RejUUr. PresiaVeatt Joha.nit and the Democracy. X distinguished frealleaiaa, ia conversation with the President, a few days agv, at Washington, remarkei to hiavi "I perceire, Mr. Jobnsnn, that the copperhead Democracy art making great eSbrts to capture our rrvJent o withdraw bim from the party which nominated anl elected bim, aai to put bim into the keeping of ths party which slandered and vilified bim before the election and which plotted his assassination afWrwarl, and I sioul i Uke to know their chances of success."

We confess that tbe titter failtire of the wood venture last year, is rather disconraging to be tried again irv the same 'direction; but could not the exorbitant rate for wood ( admitting that 86 per cord is a fai r price ) be prevented by our citizens supplying themselves with good coal.' and banting more of that article? We do not think there wonld be mnch, if any, grumbling, if wood should remain at 86 per cord; bul it looks to us like as if it would reach $12, , if demand and supply regulates its value, unless our citizens use more coaL We do not subscribe to the doctrine taught by our neighbor, that an article is tcorA what it will bring in the market more especially articles of vital necessity it is the "doctrine of devils," and no christian or moralist will either preach or practice it. We second the Telegram's suggestion ia regard to stipulating with the Ft. W. Iioad to convey wood on that road, in consideration of the 850,000 subscribed by the city to make it. It would be a good thing for the city provided it could be accomplished. i . nsUr sass as"""" " Indiana Regiments now in the Service. From the Indianapolis Journal, Sept. 14th.

The Playmate is decidedly the best Magazine for boys and girls that comes to our table ; it is always full of interesting matter for the young folks yes, and for old ones, too. The work can also be relied up'in as carrying always a xoiil tone along with it a matter of no little importance now -a days.

S5 It haa often been the subiect of complaint on the part of t e Democratic press, tint our authorities -cre squan lering millions in feeding a swarm O! lazy egroes. while destitute w bite people receive no attenion. Wh:!e Government has made no distinction m he ili-tri iu!ion of itsfcharity between white and black. . is worth while to occasionally vindicate the truth ot ;isrory by giving statements of what is really being 'one in this narticnlar. The NashrrWe Press and Times says that during the aontii oi August, I. HIS rations were issued to freednen and refugees at Johnsonvil'e. Tennessee. About hree hundred were issued to colore.! people, and fifty whites going to their homes in West Tennessee. Of ? residue t'ie raw was about one colore-! person to hirtv whites. A dispatch from Washington states that in Missis- j ippi. during the month of July, 22,000 rations were ; .sued to destitute white citizens, and but 770 to color- j d persons. Su-h is the tenor of advices from the . holeSonth. We trust that ihe time is near at hand fhen the necessity of keeping Government boarding ouses for either class will no longer exist. fd. Taxo.x Spirits. Strenuous efforts are being made obave the Tax on spirits reduced at the coming Sesu of Congress, but the erta are likely to prove of ttle avail. Commissioner Ortott, in reply to a letter ; ' inquirv on the subiect, bas said : My opinion has been asked several times recently, as i tlie propriety or probability of a reduction of the j on distilled spirits by the next Congress. I have ivariably replied that no reduction whatever would be roposed or favored by me, and that it is possible to liect the tax at ttru dollars pcrgulioa astborouyhly i at aor lower rate.

Gen. Connor's Powder River Expeditionv
His Pawnee Allies—Constant Fighting with the Cheyennes. [Correspondence Detroit Advertiser & Tribune.] FORT CONNOR, D. T., Aug. 22 1865. The first fighting of the expedition was done on the morning of the 17th, by a party sent out by Gen. Connor, on the evening of the l6th commanded by Capt Frank North, or "White Wolf," as his Pawnees call him. On the morning of the l7th inst., at daybreak, he came up with a war party of Cheyennes, eighty miles north, said to number twenty-four.— There were fifty Pawnee scouts. They killed every one of the Cheyennes, without the loss of a man, and had only four horses killed. They captured twentysix ponies and mules, and many of the trophies of tbe chase, among them, eight scalps. They went out without saddles, and some without clothing, and none of the party took rations. As they returned, when near camp a "big Indian," who had two scalps on a pole, took the lead; the others followed, swinging their scalps over their head, yelling and whooping about "heap Sioux," and "kill 'um Cheyenne." The Pawnees, who remained in camp, met them at a gallop, making the greatest gestures of gratification. On the evening of the same day, we witnessed their scalp war dance, which abounded in savage glee. In the afternoon a large body of Cheyennes appeared on the hills north of the Fort. Col. Kidd pursued them abont twelve miles, with a small force. Capt. North, with Pawnee scouts, also pursued them. The wild Indian pioneers, however, where too fleet for our jaded stock. The only gray-haired man in the Cheyenne tribe, one of their principal chiefs, was cut off, and informed by a Pawnee that he must die. He told by signs that they had been off to the southward on the war-path, had killed a great many white men, and were sick and tired of it, and were now going home satisfied. He signified that be was proud to die on the war-path, and at once commenced shooting at his captors. The Pawnees soon "made him sick," as they say in this country w hen a man is shot. Capt. Kellogg secured the old Chief's bow and quiver, in w hich only three arrows were left. The Cheyenne Indians lost considerable baggage in the retreat, among it a package of old letters, belonging to men of the 4th Mishigan [sic] cavalry, also a book presented to one of the men. As they are on duty at Camp Collins, in Colorado, some 400 miles from us. we fear they have had some bad luck with the Indians. Capt. Tubbs, C. S., came near being captured in a skirmish on the 20th, by passing up a ravine, Indians being on both sides, concealed . 21. Early this morning four more Indians were killed, two of whom where scalped by Pawnees. A large train arrived from Fort Laramie, guarded by companies A and C, of our regiment. Gen. Connor started with the left column this morning, August 22d. They strike across to Crazy Woman's Fork of Powder River, and thence to Tongue River, to the north line of Panther .Mountain. ———<>——— The I)ismir.al of Capt. J. J. Wright.

Hollow ay, Esq.: Sir: In a number or your paper, published about the 1st day of June, l r5, you pnblish my dismis-sal from military service, on a charge of desertion. Writ you now lie so kind as to say to the same readers that the charge was founded on a request from the commander of my regiment to have me dishonorably dismissed the service. The charge has been proven utterly false, and ilhout foundation, onlv as advantage was meanly taken f my absence, while on duty by proptir authority. Ilease Slate that I have never been absent from my post of duty, without proier authority, and reither inact nor intent, have I ever been a deserter, and am just as incapable of being, as any of the conniving parriotsi ?) who sought my disgrace, are of being honorable, high-miuded men, either at home or in the tielJ. 1 am very respectfully, Ac, J. .1.

We know and care nothing for the Captain's favorites. We merely stated what wc supposed to be a fact. Jiul. Juur.
