PLEASANT AFFAIR.'

Kditohokthk Mail:—In the absence of a reporter, 1 wish to call your attontlon to the event of a ningnifleent supper givon »t tho Terre-Haute House on Christmas night, by J. A. Purker, proprietor of tlx* Kaglo Iron Works of our city, to the operatlvo mechanics in Ills omploy. Tlnit, sir, is a step in the right direction, and an example worthy of iinilatloit by all other in tin fact urors In our city. In a brief spooch in the supper room, Mr. Parker mild that the auppar wua jglvon tu i»i«» »mpjoyooa as a manifesto of his appreciation of their faithful ondoavors in the interest of his business In the nost year, and hoped they would make thoinselvos worthy of a repetition of tho Bame on each suoooedlng anniversary. After a-sunper appropriate responses were Indulged in ly his foreman and other members. Repairing to a private parlor, tho courteous landlord extended his hospitality to Mr. Parker and his tuen, in the donation of fragrant Itavanns, which sided In making the entertainment one of rare interest and pleaauro to all concerned. That event, sir, must and will ongender the feeling that the ettorls of the labour, skilled or unskilled, should be observed nnd rewarded by the employer. Since Mr.

Parker sssutMod the proprietorship ol tho Ragle Iron Works, the energy and luln all ambition whieli charaeterixe him his business pursuits, and his particular adaptallou to his present business in lolther aepartinent, have won for his establishment a reputation second to none, of the same kind. In the west.

Lxng may it continue to prosper as rnow. An Ohskrvkr.

A St. IiOUts toy dealer stopped in this citv on his way from the hUst last I week. After looking about he concluded that this would be a good place to [open his stock and remain till after the

Uolidays, With this intention he rent/•d a store room and telegraphed (br his Itoods to be stopped here. Hut unfortunately, they went on to St. Louis.

He then ordered them back and they arrived a day or two after the holiday it rade was over consequently the unhappy man AUled to realise his expectat Ions either in this city or St, Louis, ind both eltles were minus a valuable toy shop.

SOUTHWESTERN RAILROAD.

STATEMENT TOTHE PUBLIC FROM THE STOCKHOLDERS.

TO THR VOTEBS OF HARRISOI* TOWWhhip:—The Commissioners of Vigo county having ordered a special election to take place on the 22nd day of January, 1872, in which you will decid« whether the property of Harrison township shall be taxed to the amount of $150,000 and the money osed as a subscription to theTerre-Haute and Southwestern Railroad, it is tit and proper that we should state to you explicitly the design and object of our corporation, the benefits that may accrue to the property holders of Harrison township in consequence o( the building ol the proposed road, and give all other Information of interest to you which we may possess.

It is tbe design of our corporation to construct a line of railroad from Terrell auto, in the State of Indiana, to a point on the Mississippi river, in the State of Illinois, lying in a Southwesterly direction from this city.

We cannot indicate more definitely the line of the proposed railroad than to say that it will cross the Wabash river at a point between Darwin and York, and that it will pursue thence a Southwesterly direction, by Olney or Flora, to tbe final terminus on the Mississippi river. Tbe reasons why the line may not be more definitely indicated at this time are: (1.) The route has not yet been surveyed. (2.) The location must depend greatly upon local subscriptions and donations.

The construction of this line is demanded by the Interests of this community. More than this,it is an actual necessity unless Torre-Haute can afford to lose tbe business of tbe most valuable trading region now tributary to her, just as she has lost the trade of Green and Owen counties in consequence of the construction of the Indianapolis A Vincennes Railroad. The wholesale dealers of the city tell us that ono-third ol the jobbing trade of TerreIlaute comes from the territory lying South of the Vandalia Railroad and West of the Wabash riyer, which territory is not now penotrated by any railroad„line. The retail trade of that region Ib also immense. Now this valuable trafllo will bo lost to Terre-Haute entirely, within twolve months, if tbe Terre-Haute and Southwestern Railroad is not constructed. The Chicago, Danvillo A Vincennos Railroad, of which Hiram Sandford, of Paris, is President, is already undor contract, having been let to Thomas King, ol l'okin, Illinois, and sub-let by blni to Col. J. C. Prosoott, of Indianapolis,with tho agreement that the whole line from Danvillo, through Paris, Marshall, York, Robinson or Palestine, to Vincwirnea, shall bo ready lor iron within a year. At Palestine, Illinois, on the Kith Inst., the St. Louis A Cincinnati Railroad Company was organized. This lino Is projected to furnish a Western connotitlou for tho Cincinnati & Terro-Hauto Railroad, the main line of which corporation (the C. & T. II.)does not touch Terre-Haute at all, but runs from Bloomington through Bloom field and Sullivan, to Moroni in this State. The directors of tho St. Louis A Cincinnati Railroad promise to put their line undor contract immediately. Thus it will beseen that the Chicago, Danville A Vincennes Railroad, which will certainly bo.built, and the St.,Louis A Cincinnati Railroad,which will probably be constructed, will take away from this city all tho trado of the region beyond the Wabash river to tho Southwest il the Terre-Haute A Southwestern Railroad is not constructed at the earliest possible date.

In answer to objections which have come to our notice to the proposed subscription of $150,000 by Harrison township, and in reply to inquiiles concerning the said subscription we will say:

The first objection seems to be that tMut corfwratioH doen not propose to bmltl tAe road btyond the H'it»i*h river. In answer, wo beg to give assurance over our owu signatures that the subscription of stock which may be voted by the electors of Harrison townahlp shall not be used, in whole or In part, unless we are able to guarantee the construction of a railroad across the Wabash river and to Robinson, Illinois, or to a point oqui-dlstant with Robinson from this city. Aud further we pledge ourselves, that tbe purpose of this corporation shall be completely abandoned and its charter surrendered without using one dollar of the money that may be voted by Harrison township, if we find ouraelvea unable, after a survey of the route snd a full canvass (br subscriptions, to build the road to Robinson, or to a point equi-distant with Robinson from this city as in-Moa-ted above.

The second oH«^U«n which has been brought to our notice is thai our corporation ilSA.000 v.". iV f«••. »(Asr '.udk Jktsw rwiivl frx rV uy bnt flOOoroeaeA. We answer (!)The Kvansville Terre-Haute A Chicago Railway ieceived larger private subscriptions In ithts city than our enterprise. One dtlxen subscribed 150,000. and the aggregate of private subscriptions amounted to more than $100,000. Thus It will be neeo that the K., T. II. A C. Railway received much more substantial aid In this city than to hoped for by our corporation. (1.) Tbe Terr*-Haute A Cincinnati Railroad has no costly bridge to build within tbe tweoty-flve miles which has guaranteed to construct la consideration of tbe c4ty*a snhecripUon of Oar own corporation, be•Ides pledging Itaeir to build thirty-«ix

TERRE-HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL DECEMBER 30.1871.

miles of road instead of twenty-five, Is compelled to build a bridge over the Wabash river which will cost, with its approaches, not less thsn $150,000. (3.) The sum of $150,000 assessed upon tbe township of Harrison will make the subscription of the city but little, if sny, more than $100,000.

We pledge the community that the machine shops of our line shall be located In Terre-Haute. Of course, ss citizens identified with the interests of this city, we would not entertain for a moment any proposition looking to tbe location of these works elsewhere.

The foregoing is respectfully submitted by the projectors of the TerreHaute and Southwestern Railroad organization, with the additional assurance that the necessity ol immediate movement to protect important interests of this city prompts their action.

Signed by the directors and all of the stockholders of the Terre-Haute and Southwestern Railroad Company.

IMPROVEMENT OF THE WA BASH RIVER. In a flattering article concerning this city, published in the New Yotk Tribune, Dr. J. W. Foster has this to say of the permanent improvement of the Wabash River: "With regard to the importance of the Wabash River as a great artery ol trade, I am not profoundly impressed. This stream, like the Ohio, each year, as its sources are cleared up and its swamps drained, appears to flow with diminished volume. A survoy with reference to the improvement of its navigation has just been completed under direction of the United States Topographical Bureau, and the plan contemplated is to remove the snags aud sawyers, and excavate channels through the sand bars. This plan, while it might remove manv impediments, would not increase, but rather diminish, the average depth of water, by permitting it to flow more freely, ana when completed would only admit of tbe tree navigation of the river for a limited portion of the year by steamers of small capacity. To slack-water the river would he impracticable, for the intervales bordering the stream are broad, and large tracts of rich land now cultivated, would be inundated and rendered valueless. The only feasible method to render the Wabash thoroughly navigable, is to imitate what is now doing in the neighboring State of Illinois to start at the head of Lake Michigan, say at Michigan City,and cut a camu, at least 100 feet broad on the bottom, to the northernmost bend of the Wabash, and use a portion of the waters of that great reservoir to keep the river in a ijoatable condition, except when closed by ice. There is a growing disposition on the part of the people to restrain Congress from embarking In 8chonfWm of Interwul Improvement designed to benefit particular sections but the State of Indiana, I believe, is nearly out of debt, and may bo disposed to execute a project which shall redound so much to her prosperity. Ay this means a water communication far cheaper than any land conveyance, might be maintained throughout the entire length of the State, a distance of more than 250 miles in an air line thus uniting tbe commerce of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers with that of the groat lakes.
