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

was instructed to report upon the propriety

The Quincy, (III) Whig mentions a noble
net; we reprint for its singularity in these
days; Some years since the late Thomas
Neal, of East Quincy,• had' some difficulty
with his son, Thomas Neal' in consequence
of which he disinherited him. 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

You'll never see their bodies more—
Their souls are on yon happy shore.

Their larher's arm too weak' to save, , •

To answer to the summons sent. ,
Their mother, too, they left behind,
With aching sorrow in her mind;
She bows beneath afflictions rod,
Which kindly leads her soul to God.
