CINCINNATI & TERRE HAUTE R. E.

A Trip Over the Line, PO far as Completed.

Work Rapidly Progressing.

Last afternoon, through the courtesy ofSupt. Matt. P. Wood, of the Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railway, quite a number of the substantial business men, railroaders and members of the press of this city enjoyed a very exhilarating ride over gthis line, so far as track 1 aying lias progressed—23 miles from Terre Haute.

At the corner of Tenth and Main street we entered a coach of the Terre Haute & Chicago Road, placed at^ the disposal of Mr. Wood by Supt. Nesbitt, of that line, drawn by "The Treasurer," one of the magnificent engines of the Cincinnati & Terre Haute line, from the Baldwin Works. We then passed over the Evansville & Crawfordsville Road to its junction with the C. & T. H. foru miles below here, that part of the track frcm this crossing to town not yet being laid on account of the non-arrival of "crossing frogs." Arriving at the junction above alluded to, we were soon out on the new track and were off like a shot in the direction of Cincinnati, through a rich agricultural and mineral country, over the smoothest unballasted road we ever passed over. "The Treasurer" sped on out beyond Corry to a point 23 miles from this city, where we found some fifty or sixty men, under charge of Horace Baker, formerly of the Terre Haute & Chicago line, laying track at the rate of over one mile per day. Plere our party alighted and made observations of the modus operandi of track laying on a first class j-oad. Teams go far in advance of the construction train and distribute ties along the graded track. The superintendent of track laying, Mr. Baker, follows with his men and material, and lays down the track in the following order of busiuess: one squad of men place the ties in position another squad unload rails from ithe train into a rail car, which is drawn by a horse up to where the last rails were laid, and placed on the ties by another body of workmen a number of men distribute spikes at the same time, leaving four on each tie. These are all closely followed by a" squad, armed with spike hammers, who securely spike down the rail, a dozen driving as many .-pikes at one and the same time. Thus they are continually on a strike," but dj i't quit until their ten hours per day are well put in. The noire made by tracklaying, when so many are employed at the same time, is only equalled by the Anvil Chorus attachment of Tat Gilmore's Peace Jubilee.

Remaining there but a short time, we were soon on our winding way homeward, making the trip in about forty miuutes, mukiug express time a good part of the distance.

We have taken particular pains to gather together all the items of interest i^gly rich, to the public concerning this important line of road, and have succeeded as herein follows:

As our readers arc well aware, the first spike in the construction of this road was driven by Director Burnett, one wiudy, snowy March day of this spriug. At that time, the road had been loeatcd but a short distance, and there was but a mile or two graded. At present, commencing at its junction with the "K. & C., there are nineteen miles of iron already laid, and five more in the direction of Cincinnati will be, by Tuesday of the coming week, and by the middle or last of the week five more miles on this end will be completed, making direct connection with the construction party from this city over the track of the C. & T. H. Co. The construction party will reach Eel river at or about the same time, which will immediately be bridged. The bridge structure is already framed, and only awaits the completion of its track to the river to enable the company to transport the iron work from this city to its future resting place, tf'or eight miles beyond this river, theBagnellBro3t,ofStJ mis, have their contract of grading, finished, and cross-ties are being distributed. This reaches to Middleberry. From theuee through to Bessemer, (the point the company offer 40 acres of land

and other inducements to those contemplating conducting manufactories of iron, rolling mills, etc.) the preliminary work of locating the right of way for giadations has commenced. Already the track is located to Bloomington, through Brown county to Columbus, and the preliminary work finished and ready to let to the contractors. From Columbus to Greensburgh, the line is Vlready under contract, and work rapidly progressing. The prospect at this present time is that the road from Terre Haute tc Greensburg will be completed by January 1, 1873.

When Grcensburg is reached, through trains will be run from this city to Cincinnati, via the Cincinnati & Terre Haute and the Indianapolis, Cincinnati & LaFayette, ith which company such arrangements will be made until the rest of the track in completed, which will be the following season.

Iu the construction of the road, none but the very best material has been used. The timbers used are of the most substantial aud durable wood much of the road bed is cut through "hard pan," and all of it is more solid and firm than any other road of which we have any knowledge. Indeed, so hard was a great portion of the road bed, where embankments had to be removed, the workmen were delayed in their work.

The rails arc manufactured at the celebrated works of the Pittson Iron Company, in Pennsylvania, are known among manufacturers aud railroaders as the "Cadorus steel head rails," joined together by the fish joint bolting process. The New York and Erie line is laid exclusively with this durable rail, and its officers pronounce the article the best ever manufactured. Under good management, the Erie will prove that there are no such successful lines as it. By the of such rails' exclusively, when trains are not run recklessly, there will seldom, if ever, an accident happen, occasioned by a broken rail, or an engine jumping the track. The Cincinnati & Terre Haute liue is under just such man. agement, as all roads should be under, men who have made railroading the profession of their lives.

In the way of rolling stock, as in all else, this liue is not to be excelled. Two elegant twenty-eight tun passenger locomotives from the Baldwin works are already iu daily operation on the road two more of the same size are ordered, will be delivered iu July. Six freight thirty-four tun locomotives, ordered from the same works, will be delivered during the months of September, October and November—two each month also two switch engines for Terre Haute. Passenger cars will be constructed and delivered as needed. The first two hundred coal flats" have been ordered from the works of Haskell and Barker, Michigan City, these gentlemen being awarded the contract by bids, as the company award all their car contracts, to the most satisfactory bidders. These "coal fiats" are to be delivered at the rate of seventy per month, 'commencing in August. When the order is filled, it will be duplicated as rapidly as the cars are needed. We understand that two hundred more will be ordered very soon, aud will be followed with others until Jan. 1st, 1873, to the extent of 800, at least.

Specifications and drawings are ready to issue to car-builders for bid3 on the first contract of freight cars, which will soon be let to the most satisfactory bidder.

About the 10th of July, as much of the road as is completed at that time, will be formally opened to business, and regular passenger and freight trains run for the accommodation of the public and as the track-laying progresses, the running of trains will be extended along the liue from the beauteous Queeu city of the Wabash, to the Queen city of the Ohio.

All along the line, towns are beginning t) spring up like "mushroons from a hot bed." We noticed three, iwrence, Saline aud Corry aud the road passes through one town which among the numerous new ones may well be entitled to the honor of being the Patriarch. We allude to Lockport, a town which takes its name from the locks of the old Wabash & Erie Canal, now in ruins, but along the green bauks of which the T. H. & C. winds its way towards the Orient.

In Corry, John S. Donham, Esq., is erecting a mammoth warehouse, wherefrom to ship the fruits of the golden harvest of his fine farm near by, and also do a big business in the grain line, with the country around about, which is exceed-

Near Corry, on the line of

the road, Deter & Carter are boring for coal, with flattering prospect. Others will follow suit shortly, and switches and side tracks will be constructed all through the coal fields along and adjacent to the road, for their accommodation. Along the track now completed, we yesterday noted large piles of Cross-ties, "switching frogs," switch aud side track rails, spikes, and everything necessary in building switches and side tracks. These, we understand, are to be used for that purpose, as needed.

In fact, during the whole trip we could see nothing but the most flattering prospects for the early completion of the Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railroad from its objective point, our young Pittsburg of the West, to its terminus, the Metropolitan Porkopolis of the Ohio.

To the management of the company is due this success and the thanks of the people of both the objective point and terminus of the liue, as well as the inhabitants of the beautifully, rich country through which it passes. The superintendent of the road, and all his assistants are experienced gentlemen im railroading have bad all the work done under their own special observation, which accounts in a large degree for its success so far, and fair prospective, -AI «j.

DETER

&

CARTER, the latter formerly

in business in this city, are boring for coal near Corey, on the new Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railroad, about twenty miles from this city. Yesterday after noon they were highly elated with the prospects, though they had sunk the auger but sixty feet.

THE Indianapolis Journal's Seymour murder sensation, wherein its reporter discovered the blood of the murdered man, Woodmansee, has dwindled down to a very fine point. The reporter has discovered that what he thought was blood, was nothing more nor less than red paint. He says he's sorry about it

FROM the proceedings of the Indiana State Dental Association, in the press of that city, we learn that our own estimable fellow-citizen, Jos. Richardson is the President for the ensuing term having been chosen by a very flaUericg and complimentary vote.

THE Journal man is on the fence. In his issue of this morning he says "Hurrah, for which G?"

Who will offer this ".ialf-and-half man the first and best inducement to flop? He is anxious to hurrah for some body.

DIRECTOR BURNETT, of the C. & T. H. Road, just previous to starting out on the excursion yesterday, purchased for Superintendent Wood and his genial guests, a truly ravishing box of very fra grant Havanas, of the White Fawn brand, and yet the Major and his guests were not happy.

CHICAGO, June 28.—The following is the closing part of Senator Trumbull's lengthy speech at Springfield, Wednesday night:

I have only to say to you, in conclusion, that Mr. Greeley is a man of the highest character and intelligence. No man in the land is better acquainted with the public men of the country than this man. A man of fpurity of character, of strict honesty, and who would not look upon corruption and dishonesty with the least degree of allowance. You may rely upon that, and upon his bringing about him the ablest men of the land, to form a strong and able administration, because he knows who the able men of the land are, aud no one better. As I said before, I am not in the habit of talking about individuals, but I think I may say to you that you may trust him, that he will not usurp unconstitutional authority, and that is what the people of this country want. You may trust him above almost all other men iu this land, for bringing about that state af good feeling between the North and the South, so essential to the peace and prosperity ot this country. You may trust him as a man who will administer the Government of the country for the country, and not in ithe inteaets of a party merely, and that is a great deal. If elected, he is to be elected by the honest, intelligent, upright citizens of the country, who have the boldness to break loose from party shackles, aud vote for him in order to bring about purity and reform in the administration of the Government."

NEW YORK, June 28th.—The World's special from Geneva says the arbitrators sat only two hours yesterday. The official declaration as drawn up by the court will be furnished to the public press today.

When the permanent President came forward he was received with enthusiastic applause, and on being introduced, Mr. Jewett said:

GENTLEMEN

OF THE

CONVENTION:—

Words would fail me, gentlemen of the Convention, were I to attempt to express to you the sentiments of gratitude with which my heart is filled to overflowing for the honor you have doue me in thus calling me to preside over your deliberations. Gentlemen, you are convened by the authority of the representatives of *th« party of the State to nominate candidates to be voted for the various offices at the October election. It also becomes your duty to select representatives to represent you in the Mational Convention, to convene in Baltimore on the 9th of July next. This country, this Government, and all its interests have for ibout twelve years past been in the bands aud subject to the control and direction of the Republican party. Not only the Federal Government, but, with a few exceptions, the State Government haue been in the hands of that party. We have witnessed during the period of their administration and the exercise of power by the party, a constant and persistant effort, on the part of those in authority, to absorb the rights, the power, and the privileges of the State. We have witnessed, day by day, an effort on the part of those in power to exalt the .military authorities subordinate thereto. [Applause.] We have wituessed the party in power, from year to year, and the President himself exercising, or attempting to exorcise, the war-makiug power of the Government, and that without consulting and without having the consent of the Congress of the United States. We could not close our eyes to the fact that in every department of the Government, from the most exalted position to the most humble, corruption stalked abroad. To find an honest man in the public service was. an exception to be commented on, rather than the rule to be congratulated with.

We have found these things to exist, my countrymen, and the Democratic party from time to time, from month to iiionth, and year to year, ive admonished the people that that grand Unio of government, formed and erect-, by (he fatler*, was endangered by these constant encroachments on it, [cheers] aud

The 'have admonished tho p^opln fr'yn tiirtp ,^.rooyTSfOXS-Qa-iet,.

to time that it needed their intervention, not as Democrats nor as Republicans, but as men who claim the higher and more excellent name of Americans [applause] to rally to the battle-fields and save the Government from these dangers and these depredations. My fellow Democrats, we have failed. I have seen many of you in this Convention for the last thirty years. I have frequently met you, and we have consulted togetlier, but I can say for one, whatever the future may be, the Democratic party in Ohio will be found more of the noble and patriotic element on which all governments must rest than can be fouud upon any section of God's foot stool. [Cheers.] But sir, we have failed. Others again who have not heretofore co-operated with us, have been led to witness the same dangers we have witnessed. Not through us, but from the admonitious they have received from theirown ranks they have been led to realize that the admonitions and teachings of the Democratic party have not been for naught. The consequence is that men within the ranks of the Republican party have raided their voices, as we have raised ours, against those encroachments on the rights of States against this assuming authority by the administration against those frauds and corruptions against this subordination of all public interest, to the private gain of a few. Feeling this, experiencing this, they have called for a bolt in their own party. Because of their calling that bolt, the vengeance of their party organizations has been invoked upon them, and a separation has taken place. They have organized, and they come now to you my fellow Democrats, with outstretched arms, and ask you to unite with them for the good of the country. [Cheers.] Not for success to-day, that you, or I, or they, may enjoy the benefits of office, but that this grand Union may be preserved. [Cheers.] They will ask you to unite with them, ttmt corruption may be swept from the high places in the land. [Cheers.] They ask you to unite your force with theirs, that, the hand of oppression may be withdrawn from the sons of the South. [Cheers, and cries of "Good," "Good.1'] They ask you to avow in your votes that honesty may again reign in the high places of the Government, and that the people may enjoy the benefits of an honest administration. The question with you, fellowDemocrats, is this: You are assembled to-day in behalf of the great Democratic party of Ohio, to counsel together, to advise together, and to indicate to them the policy which they, as voters, are to support in this emergency. Now, it does not become me, in this place to which you have assigned to me to indicate what the action on your part should be,but it does become me to ask you to be careful in the consideration of the question. It becomes me to beg of you to bear iu mind that the duties devolving upon you are great, that the responsibility is not of a trifling, trivial character. In looking over this vast audience of delegates and people, I feel there is an anxious waiting in the public heart to know what your deliberations will be, and I can say to you from my

knowledge of the party

which you are here called on to represent from my connection with the party, that the masses indulge in no visionary ideas of the success of the government or party organizaticn that the masses of that party bare their eyes on the government with all the persistency that the needle bears on the pole, and they expect at your hands a verdict iu favor of that government, regardless of mere party or party emergency. I thatik you, gentlemen, for the honor you have shown me. [Applause.]

The Committee on Credentials, reported that every county in the State was represented, except Green, and that there were no contests. Report accepted.

The President here read the following telegram from the Illinois Democratic State Convention: "The Democrats of Illinois greet the Democrats of Ohio, aud instruct their delegates to vote for Geeley autl Brown, and strike hands with all Liberal Republicans."

The reading of the telegram was received with cheers, and the following reply was returned "The Democracy of Ohio send greeting to their brethren of Illinois. They have just adopted, iu one of the largest conventions ever held in Ohio, resolutions approving the Cincinnati platform, and requesting our delegates to the Baltimore Convention, to vote for Greeley and Brown.."

The Committee on Resolutions reported the following resolutions: Resolved, by the Democrats of Ohio, in Convention assembled, That the platform of principles adopted at Cincinnation, together with the clear interpretation of the same enunciated in the etter of Horace Greeley accepting the nomination of that Convention for the office of President of the United States, affords a common ground upon which Liberal men of all political parties can consistently unite in crushing official corruption.

Resolved, That our delegates this day chosen to represent us in the Democratic National Convention at Baltimore, are requested to vote for the nomination of Greeley and Brown as our candidate fo President and Vice President.

A motion to lay the resolution on the table was negatived. Adopted with applause

ttuoc* The following nominations were made Secretary of State—General Wiley, of Wooster.

Judge of the Supreme Court—J. L. Green, of Franklin county. Public Works—J. B. Riley, Licking county.

Delegates-at-Large to Baltimore—John A. McMahon, Montgomery county H. B. Payne, Cuyahoga county C. A. White, Brown county M. A. Dougherty, Fairfield couuty.

Alternates—G. A. Weimer, Summit C. N. Allen, Jefferson E. Cunningham andE. Eaton, Cuyahoga.

A resolution returning thanks to the citizens of Cleveland for the manner the delegates were received and entertained, was unanimously adopted.

A resolution was adopted instructing the State Central Committee to issue a call for amass meeting of the Democrats of the State at such time and place as is deemed expedient for the purpose of ratifying the action of the Baltimore Convention, and the selection of the Senatorial electors, and to invite the participation therein of all the voters of the State who may be opposed to the present corrupt administration.
