Tux RAILROAD.—The work of canvassing for stock for the proposed railroad extension from Gettysburg to this . place, is still going on, and tha• prospects so far _are not-in- the least discouraging According to the sub scriptions already taken at least a majorit • of our citizens appreciate the advantages which a railroad must confer. There is one thing however that must be somewhat dis couraging to the canvassers, Many persons, friends of the enterprise, • professedly so at least, when called upon aro found willing but not ready to subscribe. In this way time is consumed to no purpose. Every • ; . tt-only-act_prompt- ly but should exert do likewise. If Waynesboro' and Washing ton toWnship are to enjoy the benefits of rai , -re mus ,e prompt and united action On the part of the people. There are those, as a matter of course, who will refuse to do anything to secure the road, but this should not discourage any one, for perhaps there never was nor never will be a road built through any section of country, where some persons will not be found willing to "sponge" the advantages at the expense of their more liberal 'minded neighbors. The company purpose putting the - work under contract in the spring, and we speak alvisecily when4e say that we mew lose the- advantages of this much coveted enterprise unless we bestir ourselves in time. We would therefore urge upon our business mon, farmers and others, the importance of early and decided action. The opportunity is a golden• one and should be improved at every f risk. A failure on our part now Will be a, failure for time.— Those Who have not yet subscribed should make up their minds to do ao when called upon.- We giro below, by request, the conditions upon which the stock is taken, which, to our mind, is perfectly fair:— We whose names arc hereunto subscribed promise to pay to the Gettysburg Railroad Company the sum of Fifty Dollars for every share of stock set opmite our respective names and subscribed for by each of its, and hereby bind ourselties, our and each of our . heirs r executors, and administrators to the payment of the same, on' the following con ditions, to wit : Ist. This subscription is made for the pur pose of extending said Gettysburg railroad to the town of Waynesboro', in' Franklin County, Pa. and no part of it is payable un til the work of grading is put under contract along the whole line of the road. 2d. The payments shall only be called in as the work progresses and in .not less than five equal instalments,. one every t h ree mouths. ° lid. None of the mousy accruing from this stock subscription shall be expended for any other purpose than the construction of said Gettysburg railroad from Gettysburg t o Waynesboro': 4th No part of this subscription shall be payable until a committee of three persons appointed by a meeting of the subscribers x.alled for that purpose shall have received a sati6factory guaranty that said road shall be run►pleted from Gettysburg to 'Waynesboro' within two years from June Ist 1866 • 77nt Comm.—We have just been "shown a letter from the 77th P.

Thereupon Thomas removed t o Missouri, where he 'spent several years, At the deaf h of his father it was found that all the estate, vul. ued a t $20,000, had been willed to his brother, William Neal. William, however, did not, as'tnany would save done, allow his love of pin to overrule the finer feelings of nature, the fraternal affection he bore to his less forttnate brother, but generously divid ed the property equally with Thomas. The Clearfield Journal says there are at present living in Mechanicsville, Howard township, Centre county, a married couple whose united weight amounts to over 600 pounds—Mr. John Leathers and his wife. The former weighs 262 pounds and•the lat ter 402 pounds. This immense mash of hu manity lives together in the utmost harmony and enjoys excellent health.' Mrs Leathers weighed only 90 pounds when she was mar ried, and has acquired all her surplus flesh since that happy time. The couple aro a curiosity and are worth going to see. Some people think that the South, if im mediately restored and left to itself, will be a safe .place for Northern men to go to. The wisdom of their views is illustrated by the fact that the correspondent of the Boston Advertiser was lately driven out of Albany, Georgia, and the excitement ran so high that a company of thirty United States soldiers were powerless to resist it. General Sheridan has ordered a oontinut anon of the gratuitous issue of Federal ra tions to the destitute people of Louisiana until the let of January,- when the Legisla ture of that State will be able to provide for all suelr.
