TERRE HAUTE TO LOGANSPORT.

The Trip Over the New Logan sport, Crawfordsville & Southwestern R. R.

The Road and the Country.

On special invitation of Superintendent P. Dawes, fthe Logansport, Crawfordsville & Southwestern Railroad, we repaired to the Union Depot at an early hour yesterday morning, and embarked our destinies for the day, in Conductor Broadwell's magnificent coach of this line.

Promptly at 4:4-5 A. M., Engineer Wm. Murphy opened the throttle-valve of his mammoth locomotive No. 5, and in stautly, we were on our way towards the northeast at a rapid rate through country beautiful to look upon not only, but which it is a fortune to own any reasonable quantity of. We passed through green fields of thrifty corn, wheat in the shock, oats waving in the pure morning air, which air was wafted into the olfactories of the passeugers from fields of new-mown hay, lying spread out to cure on either side of our swiftly moving train, producing sensations delightful to the senses. Through these pleasant fields we glided on until, after passing through several beautiful groves and up valleys, we arrived at

ROCKVILLE,

which we found greatly improved. The fiery ordeal through which this thrifty little place has undergone in the last two years, while regretted at the time, has .since come to be considered "for the good of the town." On every hand we noticed new buildings springing up, some of them elegant and mammoth brick business blocks, which would do honor to a city of greater pretensions than the one under consideration. Residences, too, are springing up all along the line of the road where it runs through the city. Judging from what we could see of Rockville from the train, it is fast coming out of its Rip Van Winkle sleep, under the life-inspiring influence of the new railroad to Logansport and intermediate points, and the L. C. & S. W. Company assuming control of the Rockville extension of the E. & C. line.

Making but a few minutes stop in Rockville, our train wended its way onwards over the track constructed by the contracting company uuder consideration in this article. We found their track to be of the best the grade well established, ties and trestle-work of the best material, securely and firmly placed in position, and all laid with splendid fish-bar, manufactured in England.

Passing smoothly and rapidly over this well constructed track, we soon arrived at Sand Creek, where the company are erecting mammoth coal bins, on an elevation above the water tank, which they will keep filled with coal for the purpose of "coaling" the engine, which will only have to run off on the side track, already laid, the fireman touch a spring, and almost instantly, the tender will be filled with fuel. Thus the trains will loose no valuable time coaling. This switch is located near the famous Sand Creek coal region, the most of which mines are owned and operated by W. D. Culter & Co., contractors of the road. From these mines are daily shipped hundreds of tons even now. It is from this place that the I. C. & L., aud other roads are supplied with the coal that operates their engines and heats their coaches. The coal is said to be very valuable, and we should think so from the demand.

From Sand Creek, we proceed through a rich agricultural region in the valleys, and by a finely timbered country on the ridges and hills adjacent, until we reach a point eight miles from Rockville, where are located saw-mills, from whence proceeds the cheerful hum of the, iudustrious buz-saw, which furnishes energetic newspaper paragraphists so many soul-stirring items. These mills are portable, and when the timber near them is all sawed up, the managers just move their machine out into the woods, and again begin their work of transforming huge logs into lumber. This plan is followed out along the entire length of the road where there is timber, and thus millions and millions of feet of lumber will be 6bip|ed to the marts of t^e ^yorld over

this new road, which otherwise would not be knowu to the master builder. At this same point, James Carlysle, of Rockville, has a stave manufactory, which furnishes employment to a large number of men "and Terre Haute the best artiele in that line she can get "anywhere. *He will make a large ship ment here in a few days, and will follow it with others, regulated only by the demand, which we feel assured will necessitate an increase in his very effective force of the present.

Two miles further on from this point, through a singularly romantic region brings us to another switch, where is located a large stone quarry, which yields inexhaustible quantities of red, gray, black and white stone, very valuable for building purposes, which is being developed by Doggett, of Chicago.

Leaving this quarry we were soon out of Parke county and into Montgomery, and shortly afterwards reached Dooley, where we. found great quantities of the heaviest of oak and walnut lumber piled up along the track ready for shipment. On board the train we met Mr Abernathy, of the firm of Abernathy & Levering, lumber dealers, LaFayette, who are making arrangements to ship one million feet of lumber to the East ern market from this place. Besides this large shipment, various parties have contracted with the com pany for five hundred cars to ship lumber during the fall season. Here, as elsewhere, through the timbered region along the road, nothing could be heard but the hum of the buz-saw, and the screech of the locomoiives, sounds never heard through all that region before the buildiug of the line.

Not far from this place, the company is laying another switch and side tracks out to where parties are erecting a furnace for burning lime, a fine deposit of limestone being located near by the line of the road. We next arrived at

WAVELAND,

the first town of any size from Rockville. This is a sprightly little village of seven or eight hundred inhabitants boasts of one of the best seminaries in the State. Churches also flourish in this pretty place, which is aesthetically located on the hills above the valley, along which the road wends its way. Lumber and produce is shipped from this point in large quantities, while its merchants liberally patronize other markets for the necessaries and commodities of the people around about.

Leaving here, we soon bring up at a newly laid out town called Brownsville, whence soon will be shipped large quantities of squared walnut logs to Bremen and other European cities, to be manufactured into fine furniture. This lumber will be shipped by this line and Eastern connections to New York, thence by water to its destination.

After passing a couple of other lumber shipping points we arrive at CRAWFORDSVILLE, where direct connect^ is made with the Indianapolis, Bloomington & Western, both ways and Louisville, New Albany & Chicago, likewise. This change, however, is made at the junction of these roads, a short distance below Crawfordsville station, stops being made at both points. At the regular station busses meet every train, taking the passengers to "any part of the city," at reasonable rates. This city contains about six thousand inhabitants is the seat of one of the most fertile and productive counties in the State is noted for the refinement as well as business enterprise of its inhabitants. Here, as is well-known, is located Wabash College, the oldest and one of the best educational institutes in Indiana. But this place is too well known here to need any further reference in this article we can reasonably say that it is a matter of great gratification to the citizens of both Crawfordsville and Terre Haute that their interests are so closely allied by the strong iron bands of the L., C. & S. W. Company.

After leaving Crawfordsville, we came on to the portion of the track wliere the grade was thrown up by the old E. & C. Company sixteen or seventeen years since, and which right of way fiually run out by the expiration of the charter, ere the irons were laid and the track put into operation. This portion of the line is very smooth, and looks like an old road, being well ballasted with dirt and gravel surface.

Passing over this track, the next particular point we arrive at is Darlington, a little place of about three hundred inhabitants, who are noted for their hospitality, as well as enterprise is a wideawake Quaker town, and the first village in Clinton county.

Pausing but a moment here, we were hustled

011

through one or two lumber

stations, to .. COLFAX, the junnction of the road with the'Indiauapolis, Cincinnati & LaFayette line, a thrifty little village of several hundred inhabitants, situated in the woods, surrounded by a dense forest of heavy timber which is being rapidly cut off. Here the I. C. & L. have constructed large coal bins, similar to those now in process of erection on the L. C. & S. W. line, at Sand Creek, before alluded to. The latter road communicates with these bins by a "Y" track, aud supplies them with fuel for the entire line from the Sand Creek mines. At this point, close connection is made with all trains on both roads, which is a very important item to the traveling public, which we observed yesterday, to constitute a large per centage of our population in this country.

From Colfax, ("what's in a name we eujoyed a pleasant ride, first through gorgeous groves, ornamented with a dense undergrowth of bushes covered with foliage then through some of the most valuable timber region we have ever seen then coming out into the "Twelve Mile Prairie," a most productive and beaatiftil region, island of

fertility, surrounded by a sea of timber, figuratively speaking. A five-mile ride through this beauti ful prairie in the forest, through rich fields of green and golden grain, aud we were landed at

FRANKFORT,

through the thrifty streets of which enterprising little city of two thousand inhabitants, we enjoyed an exhilarating drive, by the courtesy of Conductor Broadwell. This is certainly the most thriving city of its size and population of any in the country, considering the fact that it has been so long shut out from the outside world because of the lack of railroad facilities and telegraphic communication. It is the county seat of Clinton county, which, by the way, is one ot the best counties in Indiana has four hotels, principal among which is. the Burgess House two newspapers, the Crescent and Banner two planing mills' five flouring mills two carriage shops one wagon shop two banks, and Other enterprises, public and private, to© numerous to mention On every hand, mammoth business blocks and magnificent dwelling houses are springing up, as if by magic. The place is growing towards the four points of the compass with surprising rapidity and the inhabitants know not what a day may bring forth in the way of public or private enterprise. In addition to the L., C. &. S. W. road, of which the people of this place are justly proud, they have another, which will be in operation from Bloomington to Muncie, by the way of LaFayette, and through Frankfort, sometime this fall. It is now graded, and the trestle work and bridges are ready for the iron, which is now being laid from LaFayette towards the Orient. From Bloomington, Illinois, to LaFayette, the rails are already in position. We also understand that this public-spirited city has under consideration another line, this to Kokomo, with a fair prospect of getting it very soon. We hope and believe the citizens will not be disappointed. We also hope that the people of Frankfort and Terre Haute will cultivate.each other's acquaintance, both in a business and social point. It will be to the interest of both parties to do so.

From Frankfort the -L., C. & S. W. line passes through a rich agricultural region, liberally interspersed with timber, to Camden, a lively little village of eight hundred people, whom the railroad is just awakening to a realization of their existence. To this point the road is now in operation and the rest of the track is being laid to Logansport on the grade abandoned by an old company, years ago. By the 1st of August the road will be in operation to

LOGANSPORT,5

115 miles from Terre Haute, and a cTty of some ten thousand inhabitants, who of Terre Hautean enterprise and is a fit objective point for such splendid line as the L., C. & S. W. This enterprising city is enthusiastic in the matter of railroads and manufactures is putting lots of capital and faith in both, especially the iron interests, and depends on this road to furnish them with cheap coal for manufacturing purposes, we know that they will not be disappointed. This city is also noted for its educational institutes, the Southern College being located here, and controlled by the Uni versalist Church. Here is also located the Western Female College, both of which institutes are very liberally patronized. This city is located on the Wa bash, like our own, and enjoys very great water facilities, which its inhabits ants appropriate to their own use much more than our people, in the way of run-: ning machinery by water power. Logansport already has several railroads, and will have another in operation from Detroit by the first of September, which will open up a magnificent country hitheito undeveloped -by not having been penetrated by railroads.

Allusion to this road reminds us that we must bring this article to a close by reference to the

CONNECTIONS AND CONSTRUCTION of the L. C. & S. W. Railroad. The Detroit & Eel River road will connect with it at Detroit, and a through car will be put on between Detroit and Terre Haute, some time this fall, and arrangements will be made with one o£our St. Louis roads to carry the car through to St. Louis, thus giving passengers a rapid ride from Detroit to St. Louis, without change of cars, at the same time giving them a chance of stopping off at Terre Haute, to look into the iron works," and other curiosities abounding in this vicinity:

This road also connects with the Toledo, Wabash & Western, at Logansport, for all points east and west. Other connections, not yet alluded to, are contemplated, and will eventually be carried out. Such as by the Terre Haute & South western, to the iron fields of Missouri and its connections.

Terre Haute is under lasting obligations to the gentlemen who have constructed this important line, and to those who are so successfully managing it, whose names and offices are as follows

John Lee, President, Crawfordsville. E. C. Dawes, General Superintendent, Cincinnati.

S. N. Stone, Assistant Superintendent and Chief Engineer, Crawfordsville. J. E. McGetigan, General Passenger and Freight Agent, Terre Haute.

And last, thongh by no means least, W. D. Cutler, Esq., the veteran contractor and capitalist of Ohio, to whom as much, or more, than any other man is due the success of this great and good enterprise. These gentlemen have succeeded in constructing a good line of road have none but the most experienced, faithful and energetic assistants that could be had off such roads as the Cincinnati & Marietta., The road is now being fenoed in and properly ballasted with gravel.

THANKS.

In closing this article we wish to re turn our sincere thanks to Mr. J. W. Broadwell, one of the most courteous conductors we have ever had the pleasure of meeting, and Mr. E. H. Staley, the able editor of the Frankfort Crescent, to both of whom we are indebted for much of the information contained in this rather hurriedly written article. "May their shadows never grow less."

INDIAN AGEN^ FOR THE PIUTE INDIANS.—By telegraph we learn that our esteemed fellow-citizen, Geo. W. Ingalls, Esq., has been appointed agent for the Piute Indians in Southeast Nevada. This appointment is a most excellent one in every respect, for its duties not only require the highest order of business tact and qualifications, but also a man of more than ordinary nerve and Christian forbearance, all of which Mr. Ingalls possesses in the highest degree. Not only will he fill the expectation of his friends, but the Government will find him true to his trust, and all of bis duties will be performed with promptness and fidelity, and "poor Lo" will find a friend and one who will temper justice with mercy, and a loving Christian spirit. Our best wishes and those of a host of friends go with Mr. Ingalls in his new field of labor.—Springfield {HI.) Journal.

CHRISTOPHER FLEISHMAN and his frau have been divorced twice, and each time have they effected a compromise, and reunited. *9L$ will be seen by our court report, Chris, has been on another drunk, and it is presumed that he wants another divorce, as that is his modus operandi when he wants to sever the tie that binds.

WHO IS the lucky man to start a wholesale dry goods house in this city Cash Bros., we learn, propose to close out their stock.—Terre Haute Gazette.

What's the use of starting a wholesale dry goods house so near to Indianapolis —Sentinel.

Only that merchants of the latter city may have a convenient market .where to purchase their dry goods.

JCDGE BIDDLE, of Logansport, is a finished scholar, and has an eye to the aesthetic in natural and acquired art. He has a magnificent residence on an island in the \yabash at that point, which he keeps stocked with works of art and curiosities of value.^ It is said to be a perfect mundane paradise About his premises.

THE HON. RICHARD J. OGLESBY, of Decatur, Grant candidate for Governor of the Prairie State, will address the cit-: izens of Terre Haute, at the wigwam, Saturday, July 27, atj^ o'clock P. M., if they will rally.,

Richard is fighting the battles of the war all oyer again.

WE don't wonder that ambitious newspaper paragraphists get sb xnany buzzsaw items, since our trip of yesterday along the line of the L., & S. W. road. A man can hardly pass through that part of the country without "running afoul' of one of the infernal blood thirsty engines of civilization and human destruction.

EDMUNDS complains that we said he did not know "Seens" when the bag was open.

We take it all back, and narost solemnly declare, that in our judgment, our erudite neighbor does know beans wj^en the bag is open—but don't know any/thing else.

GEO. M. BURNETT, a cousin to L. A Burnett, and formerly Captain in 4th Indiana Cavalry, will be buried in this city to-morrow. He died at St. Louis, and his body will arrive Sunday morning. He should be accorded military honors, for he was a gallant soldier.

WALTER S. AIJMHI, late of the Star titne office, has accepted a position in the Auditor's office of the Vandalia Company.— Express.

All a mistake. ."Walter" will still con tinue with the Star Line.
