make the above announcement, and
will unhesitatingly say that it is an
appointment eminently fit to be made.
11r.;WEAKLEIr was for a time associat

the HERALD, and in our public and

congratulate themselves upon this ap.-
pointment,.as Mr. Mrk.AKLEIY is a Re
publicatt-by education and conviction ,
and will use all honorabh• means to
secure the success "oftheir principles.
The'citizens of Cumberland county
may well be proud of this'app - ointment,
for in it Mr. WEAKLEY was born, ed
uertied- and has his boon., and here
he is well and-,favorably known to al
most every man. Again 'We say,
it gives us the greatest pleasure' to
- chronicle this appointment, and to Gov.
GEArty and g'ecretiry JounAN Iv ten
der our thanks, as well IJA tiTe thanks
the Republican party, for honoring
our county by it. This appointment
must be doubly gratifying to Mr. W.,
as it was unsolicited and unexpected
• by him. _We arc convinced_ that our
townsman' will wear his new "honors
modestly.

Gen, LILLY is a good man,,but we

eleven hundred miles west - of their in
itial point at Omaha.
Such ‘tchieVernents in eo short a time
I . . . . .
may justly excite the wonder and the
admiration of the world. But the build
ing of to long a stretch of railroad
throngh a country abounding in the
most formidable obstacles is not the
only point that ~ challenges, attention.
The Company's field ofoperation was
an isolated desert. 'Rich it may be in
alluvial soil, -rich in' the elements of
mineral wealth which Nature bad lock-
ed up in her " mountain chests," it is
for the purposes of such a work prac
tically a desert. It was totally devoid
of settlement, and destitute of all re
„qui si to , q fdt.my.poxLig_pgP.L3MS
more than this, the Company's artily
of road-builders was always operating
at an average distance of two thousand
miles from their base of supplies. All
the requisite materials for the work,
Have timber, were procured in the. A
tlantic States, transported by. any and
every available means to Ormiltal-and
thenct• over the road as.it progressed .
to - the•point of employment , A hun
dred and 'Mn thousand tons' of iron
rails, a million fish-plates, two million
bolts; and fifteen million spikes, are
among the items thus brought from the
East and consumed upon the road. The
great engines that move the Company's
works at Omaha, together'with.
vied and v;ist amounts of machinery,
implements and tools used in stocking
and Atting'up their manufactories, were
also fkr,.ught from the East, and wag •
oned over the country a hundred and
fifty 'miles to Ornaha.
Some three - and a half million cross
ties, and timber in unnumbered millions
of feet, have been consumed in the con-
bridges:" - MtiCh of this material was
found at Chicago, and its transporta
tion, therelOe, was comparlitiyely in-
Cipensive,after railroad communication
wibh'that • city was established. 'All
Ate materials,' except brick, required
- for IniildingTfoundries; Machine Shops,
OonStruction Shops of all grades, Sta-
6011 Houses, Round Houses, Store
houses, Telegraph liue and Offices,
Water-Stations, Supply Stations, and
the thousand minor ihings that enter
into the outfit of so great a work, being
likewise obtained at a distance, add
largely to the cumulative account of
transportation. Subsistence and Stores
for an army of five to twenty thousand
skilled and unskilled workmen, and
forage for six to eight thousand teams
of muleri and horses, are items quite
too large to be left out of the account.
A large amount of the rolling-stock on
the road, including locomotives, was at
first, and.is yet procured at the Eak,
because the Company's works have rot'
the capacity to build as fast as it is
rot uired.
The euorinous outlay required to
move
forward such a mighty accumu
lation of matter, and to get into position
on time, shows, besides the difficulty
of its accomplishment, the disadvantage
the Company would be at in compar
ing the cost of their road, mile for mile,
With the principal railroads of the East.
Everybody knows, that it costs twice
as.much now to build a house or, otboy,,
structure, as it did ten Years ago La
bor, lumber, and other materials, are
double the price they then were. As
akcorrollary of this proposition, it costs
twice as much,
,now as it did then to
build a,l?ailroc'ttl. '
Now, What are the dompany's re
sources? They consist of capital stock,
.bonds loaned. by. • the Government,
lands granted' by the: Government,
which are aow represented by "Land
Grant Bonds,' and the •Company's
First Mortgage Bonds.
What are these assets worth? It is
assumed the follOwirig figures-are nexir-
•
y .covect :
Capital Stock $24,600,000
GoVernment Loan, .. , 29,169,000
yirst Mortgage Bonds 26,246,000
• Land Grant Bonds (corriorti- .• .
blo for immediate , location • '
arid sato of lands,) 7 10,000,000
Tcital " - $89,896,000
This. amount, which is a saving upon
the, foregoing estimate of $16,265,000,
is stated by the'COmpany to tai suffi
cient to bring the road up to . the high,
est standard of completlon, rind to
build the Denver hrariali.',
These' estimateti are merle for the
benefit of, the people, who desire a
colirict view of this much-mixed-up
case, and' in the intdrest of the First

been frightened.and &imaged' by the

work of American Enterprise.
.Wini"great but characteristic disin
'gennousness, says the Philadelphia;
Press, many of the Democratic papers
are publishing a shca:etatement to the
effect that Gen. Grant returned his in
come last Year at only $566,, leaving
the inferetee to ignorant readers—i. e.,
Democrats—that he, General. Grant,
bad not made a full return. • The word
ing of this cowardly paragraph reveals'
the fact that its author knew he was
both suppressing and twisting the truth.
General Grant did not return any ouch
income. He returned 'one of several
thousands of dollars, from which the
United States assessor deducted all
lawful exemptions—among which were_
$l,OOO allowance, taxes and house rent
ilciaui e previous year, all Inssee'm
business, and all Government salaries
.from which the
_tax is taken off when
paid, leaving, in this, instance, 'a balance
of but
-$566 liable to tax. We make
'this explanation for the benefit of the
.not over-intelligent- Democracy, upon
*hose credulity their own journals are
deliberately attempting to impose. The
conduct of •the proprieteditors
Wbo permit this discreditable evasion
to 'float through their columns can only
charitably be excused. on the' ground
that their concerns • not being such as
to necessitate an income return on the
part of anybody connected with them,
taey- may iioesibly be ignorant as to
the nature of that paper, and therefore
lie unconsciously. • .
NoTHING is seemingly so abhorrent
n Democratic minds as attempts to
keep the ballot-box pure and make it
truly expressive of the popular will.
So intimately is the strength of that
party woven with fraudulent - practices
a 9..
them is received--with a howl of des-
Pair, and Abe, whole-organization pros
titutes all its energy in the .work, -of
removing them., This is a hark nay,
a aespicAble njcessity, yet certain it is
'that Democracy would only be a brat=
en sound if the ballot- box were purged
of impurities, and could be made, by
wholesome regulations, , a ,, safe register
of sentiment The Republicans of the
New York House of Representatives
have just fought through a registry law
similar to that passed by the legislature
of this State, against the fiercest rebel
opposition. These enactments-arc not
regarded as entirely sufficient to cor
'reckall the evils known to exist by,
reason of Democratic repeating, false
naturalizations and perjuries. But they
afford the best available means of coun
teracting the more unblushing frauds.
Hence their repugnancy to the jobbers
and tricksters of that party. If any
spark of honor . or honesty existed in
the ranks of that organization these
_reformatory steps would.meet with en
doraement. We could not expect that
every or any particular form of laW
would meet with vindication at their
hands, but the principle involved
- should secure such recognition.as 'per
sons bent upon a fair expression' of
public opinion would naturally give it.
We thing, however.,—
Desperate, indeed, is 'the strait that
forces men into the rejection of a gold
en 'principle, and then, to make them
consistent, forces them still further and
into au apology -for crimes that threat
en the whole republican system. The
attitude of Democratic journalists - and
the Democratic party is to-day in di
rect antagonism with that morality
which would keep the election pure
and free,
THE Cuban question is causing the
administration considerable embarrass
' ment, It is deemed advisable to give
the Spanish government no cause for
offense, but at the• same time nothing
is to be done to retard operations in
this.country in favor of the Ouban re-
Volutionists, unless the notice of Gov
ernment officers is officially called to
them. Senator Sumner thinks'the mere
fact of aCcordhig helli'gpient rights to

to, them, and that the contest will 'con
tinue until the island becomes a desert;
unless Other nations interfere. ---

•In so fur as the '•-new movement" in

public affairs of the men who have long
conimanded the confidence of the State
and are still recognized as its leaders,
it is already known to have, his sym

in his selections. as was to be expected;

which the appointments have been re

and patriotic people of the country.
CoL. J. W. FORNEY, in one of his
interesting letters from the South, pub
ish ed in the Philadelphia Press, says
that that section is-as yet no place for
Norf./Orli men to enter upon ally busi
ness in which they luny need the good
will of the old settlers. The Southern:
ers, as a generai thing, will not deal
with Northern men locating. there, if
they can well help it: •In social life,
too, they make the Northerner's-con
.dition as unpleasant as they can, short
of actual hostility.
The Lost Cause
We are inforrhed by a despatch from
Richmond on Saturday last, that the
rebel organ there called the Soitticern
Opinion, announced that it would be
discontinued after that.day, and clos-
Mg_ with ,thedespairing
" That the distinct Southern priuci
pies upon which the paper was found
ed are dead in the hearts of the people
is another flict which we ..ciiiinht buy
recognize. No cause, however ins,

What a pity that our Northern sym
pathizers with the rebellion cannot also
recognize , the same fact. T.ltcy seem
determined to adhere to The ‘losOititiie'
till the last horn blows—clinging tfo its
corpse after its parents ancl original
friends and backers have given it over
to the undertakers, and bid it a final
farewell."

YOUNG MRN'S CHRISTIAN A.SSOblA
clort.--Thare is in Carlisle an organization
of this kind, but as not much has been
heard of it lately, many good people have
become fearful lest it was in a languishing
condition. This we/are happy to state is
not the case. It ideas regularlivat its
rooms, above Mr. C. L. IiLLBE . IIT'S Store,
south-east corner of Hanover and Louther
streets. Their room is wall supplied with
the befit religious books, periodicals, and'
'papers of, the day, and where the young
mon of theborough,as well as citizens, and
also strangers visiting Carlisle, are earn- ,
estly and cordially invited to call any, ass
the evenings pleasantly and proll ly.
We do hope this organiz ion will bo
fostered and patronized, t least by tlit
professedly religiOus portion of our com
munity. In other places, these associa-
tions have been - instrumental in doing a
vast amount of good, and we all lcnow that
in Carlisle there is great need of improve
ment. Many of our young men now spend
their hours in idleness, if not in vice, con
tracting habits the most vicious, habits
which unfortunately will cling to them
thrbugh life. Those must be sought out,
expostulated with, and if possible arrested
in :their mad career.' To effect this,
,the.
strong arm of religious influence.thust be
brought.to, bear, as all other effort, if not
absolutely useless, is bf very little effect in •
saving the young fro, ruin..

ye.L of Tux: OFFICE.—Mr. A. K. Balini,
the new Postmaster of Carlifile, having re
ceived his Cohniesiop, tiiok charge of tbo
office on Thursday, the 6th inst., and at
once removed it to'thaem's Hall, imme
diately in the rear of the Court House.
The large .room on 'the first floor in the
_Northern.,wing-of—the -b;ilding--bas-been
seleeted ter this purpose, and we think . the
selection a most admirable one. The room
hasleen handsomely fitted up, counters,
shelves, letter cases, and other fixtures
at
tached,- and everything done to suit the
convenience. of the public. • Tho central
location of the Hall _ ls well imoirn, and the
propriety of the removal of the office to
that building must be - apparent to all, and
cannot fail to mast the approbation of the
hosincse community, both in town and
country.
The new Postmaster has already secured
the valuable clerical services of Mr. Wm.
EI:WIDNER and" Mr. Josiqu F. Bn&pv,
who will act as his assistants, both of whom
are known to all our'citiz9s as competent
and efficient Clerks as well as courtoous
and obliging gentlemen. Under the aus
pices of Mr. RUBINS and his able hasis
teas, we have no doubt the office will be
managed in such a manner as to give sat
isfaction to all having business with it.
We may hero mention that the now
Postmaster is. certainly under very groat
obligatiefne to Mr. GEORGT: A. O. ZINN,
for hie Valuable services in tho removal and
fitting up of the office, and for the assis
tance given by him to the new clerks for
two weeks. Mr. ZINN - is a young gentle
man of great-business capacity and habits,
has had much. experience in Post Office
:natters, and in capable of adorning nny
station. " Long may he wave," and his
"shadow never grow hiss." .

This is a beautiful little _town of about
nine thousand inhabitants, situated on' the

miles south west of Harrisburg. It is the
shirelown of Cumberland county, and is

lege., an old and well established Methodist
institution of learning, as also the United
States Barracks. The town is noted for
its symmetry and beauty, end the high
toned liberality of its citizens. In enter
prise it is in advance ofmany larggfr
Quite a large number of colored people
reside here who aro generally enterprising
and industriouS, nearly all of whom have
accumulated homes for themselves and aro
doing comparatively well. Mr. John
Brock and Mr. John Bimons, have opened
a line grocery - and aro doing a living busi
ness. The colored people have two new
churches,. aro generally respectable, and
pay strict attention to their religious ob
ligations and duties, Their school privileg
gee have always been and still are quite
limited. • Hopes are fondly entertained
that the future by no moans distant will
find them in the enjoyment of better ad
vantages. -
