RICHMOND, IND., OCT. 26th, 1865. Cincinnati and Fort Wayne Rail Road! A tr.aeting of the Board of Directors of this Company held t Fort Wayne on Wednesday, the ltb inst., at which the following proceedings were had : WaiRli, the GraDd Rapids A Indiana K. R. Co., by resolution of their board of directors passed July 17th, W5, authorized and instructed their President to open negotiation, with the Richmond A Ft. Wayne
R. It. Co., for the purpose of consolidation as soon as the latter Company devtlop their ability to put their road in readiness for the iron ; and Warmis, the Cincinnati 4 Ft. Wayne R. K. Co., as well as the people along its line of road are in favor of such consolidatiou ; and - Whkkkas. the recent eflts along the line of said road to procure stock, (fire abundant assurance of its ability to put its line of road in readinea for the iron; therefore, ftwl, that the President ' f this Company be, and is hereby authorize! and iuatructed to negotiate with tba President of the O. K. A I. K. H. Co., for ' such consolidation, and that an agreement of consolidation be prepared and submitted as speedily as possible to the respective boards and stockholders of the two Companies, for tl.eir approval and ratification. WniRCas, there is a divided interest in the building of a railroad on the following tinea of railroads towiti The Cincinnati A Fort Wayne P.ailroad and the road known as the Fort Wayne A .Southern Railroad, from Ft. Wayne to 111 union; and Whereas, the friends of the Cincinnati A Fort Wayne Railroad, on the whole line of said read, feel the importance of this road from the crossing-of the Wabash river at Bluflton to the city of Richmond ; and Wheriss, t'.e Hoard is convinced that the Mt-ck can I subscribed to m.ike said road ready for the iron; therefore, JirfJv.il, that so soon as $2uo,0o0 is subscribed to said road from the city of Richmond to the crossing of the Wabash river, that i I road be at once pot under contract. Jt-mtvtd, that whenever Sufficient amount of stork is subscribed to make, the Cincinnati A K .rt Wayne Railroad ready for the inn fp.m llluftlon to Fort Wayne, that part of the road b put unl'T contract. .", That in the opinion of this l'nr I the present line of the Cincinnati A Fort Wny i : It. II., is the true line on w hich to coiiitni' t fca.d ro.id,and we hereby declare our intention of adhering to sai l line until it approaches the St. Mary's river, and from Fort Wayne to be left to the action of a practicable engineer to select the best su 1 moat practicable route for the interests of the Uoad. For the above proceedings, wo are indebted to the Presideut of the road, 1'r. J. R. Mkmoknii all, who has just returned home. Io gave us the most encouraging news of rapidly increasing subscriptions to the stock of the road all along the line. We can now ,wak of this road as a determined event, which will be consumnatcd within the next eighteen months the cars will be running to Fort Wayne from this city within that time mark the prediction. Cincinnati .V I'ort Win hp It. It. The prospect tor raising the requisite amount of stock along the line of the Cincinnati and Fort Wayne Kail Itoad, through Randolph county, n now good, though it requires still further c!firt to do it. and we trust there will be no relaxation on the part of the friends of the enterprise until tin) work m complete. The amount suhscrilx-d in this township, since the mooting here on the 7th, is Jl'.tmo, ami the whole amount subscribed in the county, to this date, (Tuesday) is estimated at $22,0(10. We hear the most cheering iut'Higenc? from our friends who wre with us on Saturday, and who are now passing along the line of the promised road. At Ridgcville, the only remaining place visited by them in Randolph county, while the meeting was not so large as they would have liked, still they had the assurance of leading citizens, selected as a committee to so licit stock subscription, that that portion of our county t woui.i do us inn duly. Our friends in Jay are worthy of all honor. The meetings have been the largest and most enthusiastic along the line. About $joiiOnf subscription was taken at Mount Pleasant, within a half hour of the close of the meeting, and about the same amount in the same time at Camden. Jay county is nil right, and ltevond all doubt will raise $.(',imo of stock subscriptions at once. Let us see to it, felUnv-ini.ens of Randolph, that we are not behind hand in this matter. Wayne county is sure ; Jy county is sure ; shall not Randolph lie sure alsoT The amount required of us to build our portion of the road is comparatively mii iII, and cm easily be raised, if our people will take hold of the matter iu earliest and do their nhare. Wtnle alt who liv any where within reach of this line, have a tteq interest iu tho coiiMrurtion of this road, Winchester anil its vicinity certainly have a peculiar interest. The construction of this road, running north and south, and crossing an east and west road at this point, gives us advantages fur tra l.i, of the utmost importance, and to which our pjople certainly cannot be blind. Come, friends, one long, strong pull, and pull altogether, will biiugus outright. H'wi.

For the Palladium. Who Shall be the Anti Julian Candidate for Congress, in the Fifth District?
Dear Davis : It is sail that ''Republics are ungrateful" that despotic gov ernments show more respect for deserved merit than we are disposed to do. If this is so, it is to be hoped that the American mind may so change that it may be so no longer. We owe to our soldiers a debt of gratitude which, neither time nor eternity can liquidate, but, as far as it is within our power, let us with patriotic hearts, and appreciative ! souls commence the work of dealing re j wards. That a soldier will go to the next Congress from this District, there is no doubt, unless the track shall be crowded by greedy ami hasty aspirants. This may tpoil all our good desires and pervert gratitude to chaos. It is not likely that the present incumbent will yield the track to any one of our soldier aspirants ; for he has never shown any special regard for gentlemen of the sword and musket. It is doubtful 'whether he would yield the track to Generals Grant, Sherman or IJutler. We want a change of representative3, both for the good of our party, rind the good of the country. We want a gentleman who will feel an interest in both ; not one who has so many special partisans to reward and so many union enemies to punish. In short, we want a man to represent m, who stands above suspicion, above quarrel and dernagogical duplicity. Such a one is Gen. Grose, Gen. ISennett and Gen. Meredith. As far as we know these gentlemen, tley are oadi aliove tliat black hearted malignancy which denies ollice, and even public documents to those who chance to vote against his nomination. W'c want a representative to build up our distracted ranks, not one whose devouring appetite makes "Hellish meals of good men's names." , . , i , Litherof the gentlemen named, would c 4-fill the bill," but they cannot all be elected, and, if they all run for the nomination, it is not hard to tell who will receive it. Then to secure one it is our duty to arrange who of the three shall run. This, we fear, will bring on 4,a tug of war," which will add disaffection to political destraction. If the thing could be settled by our trio of Generals, it would be entirelysatisfactory to tho people; but a dissatisfaction on tho part of either, would be a damaging thing with the friends of the disappointed party. Now for the sake of all concerned, we will volunteer some advice to all who aspire to the office. If Mr. Julian was to leave the track, as Grose's friends expected him to do, the General can be nominated with ease; but tl e Gereral has learned that he poutoond tho stream for one not disposed to swap work. Had he thrown his influence to Gen. Meredith at the last nominating election, he would now have an open field, or had lie remained silent in the canvass no heartburnings would have been provoked on the part of Gen. Meredith or his friend, lint that letter that f:ital letter, which he wrote against a toldicr, and which now turns against himself, makes tho Julian men chuckle. A prominent one of them said a few days since, 4-G rose's letter done us good service in the other race, and it is likely to give us a sweep in this." The General, however, think his apology all sutlicient, that 4he never intended its publication." This makes the offense greater, and shows that he wished to defeat Gen. Meredith, by secret letter writing, a thing a brave man should not descend to. Sam. Houston's father had a rule admitting his children to the first table at sixteen. If they behaved well they held their places, but if their conduct was not good they were "set back." Sam was guilty of indiscretion and was set back tiro years. Gen. Grose should feel that it is but just that he be set back two years, for his opposition to a fellow soldier. If he consents to this, his volVtntary penance will win respect and place ! , . . ii , I him again at the table Of his friends. ! , t (. :. r r- ' Gen.

He was the Alpha and Omega in the contest ; never leaving the service until our haughty foes were subjugated. During thsso years of blooJy strife, with a COtiragO becoming bis Stars, he faced the I death dealing foe. During all of which ! . - , - 1 1 , 1, , 1 time he had to contend with a worse than i , ) Copperhead enemy m tha rear. To : keep him OtT the political tr.tck, they ! pinned his military murder. The press, ! ,, . , . , , ., . j the telegraph and letter tenters, were employed as th. enginery to eTect their , hellish purpose.

To rebuke the foul slanderers of this brave man, and to reward his merits should be the wish and will of all loyal men ; and to give him the track with a hearty support is our reasonable survice. He is emphatically one of the people, and would be a representative of the
farminjr and mechanical interests of the j country. No man stuck closer to Mr. Lincoln's administration than did Gen. Meredith, and no man gives a heartier support to Mr. Johnson's plan of reconstruction than he. Then to harmonize all our conflicting interests, let the friends of Meredith, stand in this contest, as; surp-e-renellinrr T c i rrocks until he has one fair race, and receives a flattering endorsement by the people. Junius. T Surely we live in an age of strange events ! The Ledger of last evening come out in an editorial in favor of con- ; tinuing George W. Julian, as member of j Congress from the fifth district. It says : We can't see what the people of that ; t district hope to accomplish bv throwing ) j over an experienced member and taking t j up a green harul of the same faith." j j since Julian was an original abolitionist j we should be at a loss to account for this j J accfeSSiou 0f the Ledger to his cause, but ; I for one factj anj tijat j3 tjat the aspi- j ranU for ti,e succession are soldiers. The ! ' Ledger has abused Julian because he ! was"an adolitionist, but it vastly pre- j j ferg him to anv onc cf the "half dozen j '. Generals and Colonels who are anxious i to displace Hon. G. W. Julian." This j illustrates how one hate can be drawn out by a more intense one. An abolitionist is a lesser evil than a soldier. -Vw AlLany Commercial. r-& It will be recollected, that the Cincinnati fnmj merruil and Indianapolis Journal, saw fit to express their views regarding the unfitness of Mr. Julian as a rtrrvntnivr for the People of our district, which they thought had been ''burnt" quite long enough by the experiment, what a prolonged and continuous howl j went up from all his organs, within its limit-, about J 1 me "ouisiae pressure, c, ana tnese journals w ere i . , , t told to "mind their own business. and-so-on.

Oris it only the "outtide pressure" wjainut the "experienced member," that they deprecate, whilst all that mjy be said in his favor is to be tolerated and commended ? Between Mr. Julian and the editor of the L-tljer there exists the common tie of hatred to the soldier, and they only differ in this : whilst the latter expresses his dislike in irorrf the former tikes it out in it, by refusing whenever an opportunity oocurs, and within the scope of the influence of his position, to appoint or have appointed any of our brave soldiers w ithin this district to any kind of office high or low 1 TT" Gen. Rennett, in his carl announcing his in-j tention to become a candidate, seenid to think it a re- I commendation that he was a "new man," not niort- I gaged all over with personal and political quarrels. Alas tor the General! he seems to le in a fair way, j unless he is possessed of unusual forbearance, to te pretty well "mortgaged" with "personal quarrels." ' for the .liilian organs are already baying at bis heels ' gallantly. Did the General think that he could impu- j dentiy assume the right to run in Mr. Jtili m's I)is- ' tric t without incurring the animosity of Mr. Jnlian's 1 friends? " ; i The lVookville Democrat and Richmond Trn eRepuolican are both engaged in abusing Gov. M-trton. ) The Democrat abuses him. because, it says, he is in i favor of negro suiTrage. The Republican abuses him because it believes he is opposed to negro suffrage. If the enemies of the Governor expect to achieve anything, thev should tiuite iu some consistent course. CoMm raviU' 'Jim'. T"-" The Newcastle Courier professes to be "die- j gusted with the efforts of the Indianapolis Journal to j make Gov. .Morton's latesju'ech at Richmond a great j one," and more particularly disgusted that we hara I printed several thousand copies for distribution. It i thinks the speech a small potato atlair. We are paiued to learn that our Newcastle friend has so poor an opinion of the Governor's effort, but it is some eoi;o- ' lation to know that it finds general favor in all pr- ' tinns of the country, and is highly praised by ra.inv of the ablest men of the country, l'ut this contrariety of opinion is n new illustration of the o'.d adage tiiat "great men will ditfer." j,..

Telegraph Charges. Is itnot about timethat something was done to popularize the telegraph ? The prices charged for the use of it are perfectly outrageous. On the continent of Europe one can send a message across the whole breadth of France for a single franc (twenty cents,) while the shortest dispatch from Albany to New York costs fifty cents. There is no excuse for this. It is the most profitable business in the country. All the lines are making enormous dividends, upon a capital three, five and ten times the cost of the lines. There is no reason why the public should pay such outrageous prices for the service. The cost of working a telegraph is very small compared with a railroad or anything else, yet the charges in proportion are much" higher. This matter is beginning to command a good deal of public attention, and will command more unless a remedy is speedily applied. V. Y. Timet
