We expected of course to see civilians excused and the soldiers win had periled their lives upon the Hold rewarded by getting their places. Hut this bopo is gone. The soldiers believe that the Uniou ii restored, and j like true soldiers in all acres, they are iii3gaiiituoii3 and are not in favor of wrongfully imposing upon tho Southern people so odious a measure as negro Mjfrrape, consequently the radicals don't live tie soldier so well as they did, and Lave quietly concluded that they will keep the offices themselves, while the noldiors may .shift as best they can. Ac. cordingry in passing the Post Otlice Appropriation bill tho other day, the fc'cnato tacked on an amendment provi ding (hat if any persons were appointed to office by the President after the ad journment cf Congress, said appointee f-b.ould not receive any pay.

Reports that it has leached our southern borders fiou; the West Indies, where it has been commit ting great ravages through the hist win ter, are followed by the statements of its appearance- ia an emigrant ship at New York, and one nt Halifax, li'hctli. er the reports "are true or not, it mat- tors little, for it seems very certain that ' J it will make its appearance this year, sooner or biter, and every physician .i,.,,, 'i t, .ii,, ,..t-., i,;.,.;,.i re. iinl cards two things the mean of prophy- laxis and treatment. The poison or influence that pro. duces cholera is as yet unknown, tho' we Lave every reason to believe that it possesses form and substance, an 1 acts with all the deflnitenes of the poisons of Typhus Scarletina, Small Pox, &e. Zymotic poisons require certain condi tiousfor their growth and propagation,the principal of which is an atmosphere ren dered impure by the decomposition of animal and vegetable matter, the first especially. Unless il Cuds these, it ceases its pro- gross, and disappears just as certainly as seed sown upon a macadamized road will not produce o crop. The cholera poison, whenever it becomes ep idemic, must find the soil for its growth and action in an impuro atmosphere. We find a striking evidence of this in the manner of its transportation across the ocean. It more frequently appears iu emigrant ships in the steer; go, among the poorer, and from position, less cleanly passengers. Crowding al ways favors it, for in tho same vessel, the cabiu passengers, having plenty of room, good air, and means of personal cleanliness, escape. Cholera originates iu bin. rin filth, as is evidenced by tho modes of life in the densely populated sections of India from whence it starts, and those cities and countries from which it receives fresh impulse on its devastating progress. Its new birth, so to speak, among the filthy and poorly provided crowds of pilgrims at Malta, and its destructive progress from thence to Constantinople, gathering increased force on its way, is uiffieicut evidence of the above propositions. Cleanliness, then, is the most efficient prophylactic.

Owing te the-distance from the iican it railroad stations, Tyrou - on the I'eiiii-iylvauia Centra!, and Oiciu on the New York and Krio 1 ail Read, eitln r 'of w hieh could be reached only by a two day ride over roads that wen; always rouuh and olleii muddy, i-itors seldom came within h -r border-' nnlc-.s impelled by important busiue.-s inter-e.-ls. The eonidclion of the Philadelphia nti 1 1'rie Hail Itoad has changed all this, and Klk cininly is now as etisily reached as it wss before dilficult. Il.-nly in January 1 '1 1 the 'rack was laid to St. Mary's, but trains were not run n v nlnrlv ihere until the follou-ini snriio' The track was connected in Julv of the. ! same year and the company commenced i running through train? lrom l'hiladel i phia to J'.rie the next October, and since that time many and nnportaut ad- i ditions have been made to the busie.-. . of the county. , 'fliornmilv watered bv the tribuf.i lie-ol the Alli'L'henv and Si!-iiui'hatiiia. the freiUint ravines cut by thes'. streams ali'n-l the greatest facililics fer re.ichiii.r tht! iiiiiiiene deposits of eoai and iron ore that tinderl iv a at nor- tiou of the surface, and these same ravines extending into the ridges (hat rise, olten abruptly, lrom the tiottom hinds to a heigh! varying from one bun. dred to six hundred feet servo to diver sify the scenery and render the route of the P. cvlC. iu spiinc, summer nr autumn one of the ino.-t interesting to the ap. prceiativc lover of nature, that can be found in the 1'nion. The traveler by railroad lrom the hast enters the county ; ,ibout one and one fourth miles blast "f i liatlibun, and as ho stops at the Station and looks lrom the cars tuwaius South he sees at f .h:-t disimioa tne the lands ef " J.e Mont (las Coal Company." and who c territory extends from the I it. M,it- lini. ti -i ru.li.f t.itiu, it 1..I-I linn west of Hemlock Station. Tn about filteen minutes he will pass the pockets i f the Taunerdale Coal Company atid observe the trestlcwork, over winch the coal is brought from tho mines, exten ding back into the f-'iv.-.-t. Five minutes afterwards, be pa.:es the pockets of the St. Mary's Coal Company, soon after and just r. the engine nun whistles for St. My's station, he will see the junction r. ho it Koiivmrroi- I -m 1 nit.i mil I 'fttn Mi lllVrf 1 ' L 11 . . 1 1 V, l V'VSUl Ull'4 il VII vviu pany's " road. He has thus in a distance of less than nine miles, passed the properly of four Coal cull, panics, three of which are in active operation. If our stranger stops at St. Mary's he will find a busy town v.f o or lGilO inhabitants, situated upon the waters of Klk ercck, for Miller's summit, dividing the Allegheny from the Susquehanna, has been passed a mile and a half back. Following the course of Flk creek the train passes J'agu cnhoud.i junction from which the rail road ol the J ;iguseahond:i Improve, ment Company extends into Fox town ship, a distance of six miles, and to the freighting of which tho " Klk Moun tain," " Kersey," and " Phil'a & Toby creek " companies contribute. Next comes the Pa. Canned Coal it Hail Road company's works wilh their fourteen miles of Hail Itoad. After passing Hidgway the road ascends the Clarion and at ilmarth we find the ' Wilmarili Coal company " with loaded cars ready for the freight trains. In this ride of less than an hour and a half since en tering the county be lias thus passed the works of ten companies, all or nearly all of which have been incorporated within the last three yeais. These facts show that Klk county is looking up in a business way, and if we add to her mines, the undeveloped possibilities for manufacturing contained in her forests, we find that she has every necessary for material wealth. Add to these the advantages of pure water, romantic scenery and abundant game, and we confess we are unablo to see why our county should not become a lauirite resort for sportsmen and tourists when seeking 'elaxation from business or other cares, and to whose overstrung nerves and worn out muscular systems our bracing mountain air would bring health and peace. Cimrul llailroutl Ltut-, The quc.-.tiou of a general railroad law is one that interests uearly everybody in Frio couuty, and we meet few persons who do not heartily advocate the passage of such a measure by the Legislature.

Central Cily, Colorado. The space of a circular is too limited to give the opinions of numerous distinguish ed citizens and meu of science who have ex amined this district ; the following extracts relate thereto, and that of Professor Ed ward N. Kent in particular, of tho New York U. S Assay Olliceis directly iu point. Our late lamented President Mr. Lin coln during an interview wilh Speaker Colfax, relative to the hidden wealth of Col orado, Navada, Sc., said " 1 have very large ideas of the mineral wealth of our nation ; I believe it practically inexhaustible." The Hon. J. P. Upsher, Secretary of the Interior, iu the Oijieiul Report presented to Congress, dated December 5th, 1(G1, refer ring to the then present condition of our Western Territories, says. "Tho wealth embedded in the rocks of that extensive re gion is actually inexhaustible, and it will iurmsh in future years, indirectly a princi pal part of. our means of liquidating tho debt contracted by the Government for the overthrow of the Great Rebellion." Tho Hon. II. P. Rennet t, delegate in Congress from Colorado, in a speech before the House of Representatives saidz-'-Judg-ing front what I know of the undeveloped resources of this couutry j from whut I am told by practical miners who are well in formed upon this subject, I do ny here to-day befure this House and before this Country, lo bo placed upon lliorcCAids and read of all men 1 1ml within fiveyenrs' lime, and by theyenr 18'1'J, the gold fields ofCnl or.idi) Territory will products $50,0011.111111 annually , and even then its full resources of mineral wealth in gold nlonc remain not wholly developed. I Ppcak from tho united testimony of many practical miners who have spent many years iu tho mines of California, wlmn I sy : that tho gold bearing region of Colorado is fur nmro ex tensive, quite ns Inexhaustible, nnd the gold bearing quartz ol" u much richer quali ty thin in California. Professor V. (ward S. K-nt, of the New York Asny Ollice. says; ' As to the extent of Dm gold tilings of Colorado. I am not prepared to give anesti. male, ns I found enough to fully employ my time within a radio" ol" live miles of Central Cily, li e location of the above Ledges,! hut n-io the richness of tiikm. I hivc hesitation in sayinff. tf'it I brlirvr thm to lit the rirhrtt n-i-r ili'Ctvi-rcl. With science, ciinilnl nml lln; I'ncilio Railroad. Colorado ifi destined in my opinion, torivnl or supercede California and Australia, and become the K! Dorado of the World." The opinion entertained hytli(io abroad of claims in this district, is shown by tbo following cxlrnct English enpitnlists have purchased C00O, 000 ef the Colorado mining binds, and their agents and employees are now cn mult to develop I he same. The claims aro piinoi. pally in Russell and Trail districts, and a recent purcha-o has been the Seitton Lode of 1000 feet for which they paid 100.000, An idea of the value of some claims (100 feet each) may be formed when the fact is considered that it often occurs that they yield millions of dollars, and haveiu several instances been sold for $25,000 per foot. Mr. Fields, from 33J feet of Cie Bobtail Lode 1ms taken out already over $200,000 in gold, and -I'lti, 000 has been offered and refused for feet of this same lode, equal to $800,000 for a claim of one hundred feet. As the purchase of cither of the above lodes would require more money than tho majority of persons have at command, it has been determined to consolidate them, and to divide them into Tw clve Hundred and Fifty. ORIOINAL SHARES which will cost the subscribers hereto ONE nUSORKI) DOLLARS EACU. thus affording tho man of limited means, as well as the capita'ist, an opportunity to se. cure an interest iuthis region of "praoti cally inexhaustible" wealth. As all are aware, the usual plan adopted for the development of such a property is to form a company and issue certificates of stock. The plan here proposed may be considered preliminary to the formation of two or moro Companies on tlicsc propcrlics, which are Bubject to no royally, leases or mortgages. The Subscribers can then upon this solid and substantial basis, elect officers froai among themselves, each subscriber boing eligible to the position of an officer of tbo Company. In order that handsome returns may bo speedily realized, these subscriptions aro based upon the proposition that the subscri bers immdiately on receipt of the Deeds (now ready for delivery, and which may bo examined at the Oihco of tho undersigned before subscribing,) may lease their lands on heavy royalties, or at once organize Companies in tho usual way for which there is an ample basis. To accommodate those of moderate means, these " ml crest s " arc put at- $10!J each, in order to get the list filled at once, and to prevent any delay in the organization of tho Company. Considering the numerous valuable " Ledges "' which constitute the baiitof this enterprise the fair nr.d equitablo features the low prices nt which " interests" in it are oflcred, nnd that each interest entitles I the holder to his pro rula share of slock in an tne companies t tint may lie organized upon them also recollecting that in all. there are only 1000 interests to be sold, and it would only require ono hundrel gentle men each to take ten ($1000 to absorb tho whole, it is presumed that it is hardly neces sary to suggest to those desiring to secure one or more of tlicsc original interests, to at once send in their subscriptions. Checks or Drafts should bo drawn to tho order of the undersigned, whose endorse ment will be a receipt, in addition to tho one that will bo promptly sent on receiving them.
