CIETTYSOURC.
FOiday Evening, Oct. 16, 1855.
The liallrond.
o:l...lnquiries have frequently hum'
made of us, during the past few weo!cs, i.e
regard to the remora %float as to r',lo prob
able building of nut Railroad nt en early
date i We are not able to kurnish the pre.
cise particulP.re of the negotiations that
have taken place, but, ; understand thata,rg.
aponsihio Ciimpon7 from the eastern part
of the State
rand
.offered to;gradu and
bridge therad Hanrrier., via Oxford, at
what is xfgarded a very reasonable bid.—
lower than any previous offer. Some
gotiation has taken place in regard to the
maximum grade, there being Nine differ•
once hetween the third and Contractors on
that point. 'rho Board, e believe, have
authorised the President to contract for
the grading and bridging of the road un.
der certain condition% which remain to be
accopted'of by the contractors. The road
once, graded and bridged, it is thought
that sufficient money can be readily, to.
Mixed on Bends to procure the Bails
and put the road in working order.
We believe this is about. the true me
i dition of mutters, and it certainly looks as
I though the project were to be carried
through at last. If our people—especial
ly our Farmers, who are 'more than ! ell
others interested in the , enterprise—rwere
only to step promptly forward and give
some practical evidence' of their de'sire . to
have a Railroad, by libekal subscriptions
of stock, itcould bo put , through at once.
A number of our people have already done
well in the way of liberal subecriptiotas
Others, equally interested and equally ahle
to give, have as yet done nothing. If the
Railroad project should fail after all the
efforterbeiug made to put it through, those
who' refuse, to - land -a , helpin"thanif - atill -
have to bearihe'muin kespeostibility. * We
hope the Directors will wake another .vig
orous effort to secure the reqnsi to addition
al subscriptions. A considerable atomic
of stock ought yet to be raised, and we be - -
Hove it could be raised if the, proper stops
were taken",
•
Iti , thia connection we subjoin an inter
esting table which we find in the iVash
input Intelligonce.,' showing 'the impor
tance tif,ltailroads to agriculturalists, by,
giving the comparative value of a ton of
wheat and-one of corn; at given distances
from market, as affeoted by the cost of
transportation by railrold and over the

• It is thus mode evident that a ton of
corn, if carried 170 ntiles to m arket by the
ordinary means of transportation by wa
gon, will not produce ono cent more than
h has actually cost 'the grower, its whole
value being absorbed by its conveyance
to market , ;
while if transported the same
distance by railroad the nett proceeds of
he sale would .be more than $22. The
transportation of "a ton of wheat, by the.
sumo calculation, would exhaust its value
at the,distance of 830 miles, if mado in a
wagon, while by the Railroad it wo3ld
be worth morethan 844 beyond the cost
of getting it to market. Those are stub
born and striking fume, which no ingenui
ty of reasoning can overthrow.
P. B.r--Aficr the above was in type we
reoeind a communication signed "A' Di
rector," bearing upon the present effort to
build the Railroad, which came to hand
too late for PUblication• this week. Two
offers have been made to the Board. One,
to grade, and bridge the direct route to
Hanover for the sum of $115,000--$95,-
000 id cash, and $20,000 in stock", The
. ,
other, to grade and bridge ,the route via
Oxford for $105,000-1155,000 in cash,
and $20,000 in stock. The direct route is
the shorter by a mile or more, but will te
quire heavier grading and bridging. We
believe the 'Contractors propose locating
the route definitely' with a view to aseer.
twin to whav extent Mews for the right
of wuy can be sectored. • 'The Board will
require 815,000:or $20,000 additional•

Special Election at Abbotistotvat.
"SAIVIOT •DEAD YET 1 '
At the last *ring .Election itr Berwick
township some ballots were rejected by
the Blectien officei on account of tilledg
eil itregularity--some of them containing
more names fer 'one pf the offices than,
'the law called for. A certificate of Eke
Non was given, among others,, to Mr.
Bum., the American candidate for Justice
of the Peace. This certificate Was con
testedby Mr. Emmt, the opposition can
didate for Jlistice, who claitned to have
received a tnajority'of all the votes east.
After *lull hearing of the ease, Judge
FISHER, ritli:OUt deciding the immediate
points raised, set aside the election for
I Jnatice corisequence of the ballots not
'having the word "township" endorsed on
them, as required by Act of Assembly.--
Aapecial clecilon to supply the vacancy,
was Ordered on Saturday last: Mr. HULL t
not desiring the office, the American party
nominated Mr. WILLIAM 13117 INGER as
ibeir candidate, the opposition running
Mr. Ehnza. The result is as follows :
Bittiuger, (American) 48
Elder, (Anti-American) . 28
The vote, it will be observed, is very
full, both , sides have exerted themselves,
in consequence of the peculiar interest at
taching to the result. At the recent
County election, Berwick district, inclu
ding the borough and township, gave a
majority of six for PKUMER, the Foreign
candidate, the borough giving a decided
American majority. Now, the township
alone, in a full vote, gives au American ma
jority of twenty!, Our American friends at .
Abbottstown did nobly, wo thought, at the
County' eleetion—but the vote •of Satur
day gives evidence of a still nobler work,'
and shows to the Foreign party what they
nutty expect iu the county next fall in a full
vote. “Ssat"• was caught napping a few

The Lonisville Journal thus hits off the
vaunting bottets of the Foreign or , 'Sag-
Nichts" party, in their glorifications over
the few victories achieved by .them in aev
oral of the into electionS. Says the Jour
nalL-"The Sag-Nialits are actually talking
about burying "Sam." •We have often
heard of people huddling poor victims
into the ground before the tireath was fair
ly out of their bodies, but this idea of bury
ing a strong and:romping giant in the ye.
ry flush of health and strength and activity,
is one of the most monstrous things we
ever hnard of. The Sag-Nichts had bettor
believe that they would find him a difficult
customer to bury. The Irishman whb
leaped up from the “000ling•bikard" and
seized his shillelah and broke the heads of
the drunken riiscals that wore holding

these classes of Foreigners' wbp interfere
dishonorably in our elections, andtlatitor

ciations and clubs, not si citizens of Amer

laud, as the case may be, and demand a
lion's share of the - offices, as representa

large proportion of the intelligent Irish
Protestants, and the Protestant natives of
other parts of the United Kingdom, and
great numbers of German Lutherans, now
settled here, a different spirit pervades.—
They assimilate with our institutions, and
are never found organized into political as
sociations or asking office for their votes.
These facts are too well known to bo
questioned, and in the denunciations which
the American press, as true conservators
of the liberties of the country, have felt
called upon to make of the masses of the
foreign element in this country, it should
be borne in mind that the classes above

made their appearance and attempted to
take`possession of the poll! The attempt
was promptly resisted by the Americans
present, and the party driven off. Every
thing was quiet again until 2 o'clock,
when the same party, reinforced to the
number of about ono hundred ,with George
Konig, Ready Allen, and others, at their
head, were seen approaching the polls a

American party promptly rallied and
drove the assailing party to the corner of

made and the fight renewed. At this
time the police had come up in force, \and
upon officer Sutton attempting to arrest
Konig, the latter discharged his pistol
twice at Sutton; but while in the act of
doing so ho received a shot in the book,

THE Doom THAT AWAITS tic—Arch
' bishop Hughes has been making political
speeches in the adjoining British prov
inoes. That tee can do without incurring
any censure, because he is a privileged
Roman Catholic. In one of those. spee
ches he says that—"if we Americans do
not like the rule of foreigners, to which we
are now subjected through the support
.1 he. said foreigners-receive-from-theAleni• '
orracy,' we had better pack up bag and
baggage and leave the country." Though
these are not his precise words, we give ;
his exact meaning. Let us learn from this„
;
then, the doom that awaits us, unless the
good sense and true patriotism of the A.
merican people shall, in a atuirt time, take
away from future emigrants the right of
voting entirely. and confute it to those I
horn on the soil. When the head of the
Irish Papists talks thus openly of furring
the natives to leave their country and seek
a home elsewhere, it is lime for every I
good citizen to become a Know Notbiug.
