CHICAGO and PL.lTTSMOl'TII
The importance uf our connection
with Chicago, Ly means of the li is.
M. It'. 11. grows .-rronger from the ef
forts now being made Ly our thriving
hter city, Omaha, to secure iier thare
of Chicago inter.-l in one of the nu
merous ronds projected across the Stale
of Iawa. We riii upon our IJoard of
Trade to ioak af:t-r the interests of
rialtfmouth in ihM respect, and urge
ihem to use their influence in causing
work to le commenci d on the west end
of the li. & M. K. It as soon as prac-
tioable. I: will not d j for our merchants
to bo idle on questions that ore of vital
imnortance to. iI.mh. Let them put
their heads together, and we feel sure
that the success that ha? hitherto at-
fended their efforts will again crown
them in this ma:ter. We cannot stand
still we must move, and we must
move with a determination to win.
Chicago has no finer prospects open
to her than those offered by the Pacific
IlnilroaJ. The millions of dollars in
thi trade of the States and Territories
west of us need looking after, and we
claim that by way of the B. M.
R. It., acd our connection with he
Pacific R
we offer
It. at the lOOih meridian,
the' best inducements to be
found on lha Missouri river. Should
lh Paiiiic road be located in the lie
publican. valley, as we fully believe it
will, we wi'd have the shorten end most
expeditious route between Chicago,
Colorado and Utah. Let these facts
be made known, and we feel assured
Chicago will ba fully awake to their
0 "
immense importance to her.
Our citizens are awnre of the great
advantages of this point, but they should
not indulge the foolish notion that by
standing still others will be better able
to uDDreciate them. We must work
we must pull together, and if our busi
ness men will take the matter in hand,
vre feel satisfied they will make it a
r . I I
taccess. let me claims ana advanta
ges of Piattsinomh be fully understood
in Chicago, and the capitalists of that
city wni not tail to avail themselves of
them.
COAL.
We hear it rumored that coal has
been fouud on the Watson farm, south
of ror. 2 do not know anything
connected with this discovery, and give
it simply as we hear it. lo us this
coal question looks thus-wisei The two
great axis of upheaval on this continent
are th; Rocky mountains and the Ap
palachian chain. The igneous rocks
protruding at these centers of force ex
exeited in past ages, have givpn a curv
ilinear form to the intervening rocks
ihostf laying east or tiie uocky moun
tains dipping generally to the east and
south, and those west of the Allegha-
oies to the weu and south. Other
forces in this immense valley, but they
jwe suiitu, uuiupaicu iu me yituici in-
iluenceof the twochaias named. About
fifty mles east of here, in Iowa, coal
is found iu workable teds dipping to
the west and so.uh, and we think that,
underlying the limestones, on the west
ern side of the Missouri, the same for
mations can be found. Without meas
urements, and basing our estimates on
the report of friends, we think it high-
ly prohable that coal wiil le found at a
depth of 300 feet, whi!o at some dis-
tance west of the river it wnl be found
nearer the surface. From casual ob-
eervations we make ths dip to the east
ward about one foot in seven hundred
ind ninety-two. Cannot some entwr
prising persons be found who will start
a baring machine and Wit this coal
question thorougly?
tOCXTl AI TIIE It. 11.
It appears to us that our friends over
the river are standing- in their own
light; or, in othes'word., thnt they are
working in direct opposition to their
own interests. They ap;ear to be op-
crating on the plan that their swamp
lauds are of more benefit 'to them than
a railroad would be. W are nm thor
eughly, conversant with the difficulty
between lhe;n and the Railroad com
pany, but know tkat it is some di-puu
in relation lo swamp lands. Now, we
believe a railroad running through Mills
county would enrich the farmers of that
county more in one year's time than the
entira swamp lands they possess. But
some argue that the road will be built
upon the same linu anyway, aed that it
ii useless to concede anything. to iho
company. Admitting this to be true,
(al;houli.ive have serious doubt as to
the correctness of the argument.) any
sensible man can see that this difficulty
has a tendency to del;iy operations en
the read. Were this trouble disposed
of, we doubt not that work would be
commenced on this end of the read im
mediately. Now, the question for the
people of Mills county to deterniiue is
which would be of the greatest benefit
to them, to have work commenced im
mediately upon this end of the railroad,
with a certainty of both astern and
wes'ern connections at an eariy day, cr
to retain their swamp lands, with no
certainty of ever having a railroad, cr
at least with a certainty that their action
in relation to these lauds will delay the
.ompletioa l!e: road indefinitely.
Let our friends over he. riyer consider
this matter, (as we doubt not many of
them have.) and see if something can
not be done to hasten work upon this
end'of the road. The only bearing the
(Jliestion has upon us here is in regard
to tune; for the road will run from this
l it westward, whether it connects east
ward direct through Mills county or
whether it bears south' to Fremont; but
;. u one of vital Importance to Mill
countv, arm one in wniLii tney .-noun.
not allow personal feelings to overrule
their better judgment.
attlxtioa:
Let our eastern readers remember
that Platismomh is situated at the mouth
of the great Platte river, thro jgh the
valley of which passes the entire emi-
graiion to Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Mou
tana, Nevada, California and Oregon;
that this is the western terminus of the
Burlington & Missouri River Railroad,

This cirantic swindle has at last

bare-faced swindle been attempted to

It provides an imaginary capital of im

New York, Feb. o. The steamer
Kill von Kuli sunk at the foot of -10th
street, North River, yesterday after
noon, and abo'tt ono hundred cattle on
board of her were cirewned.
World's Washington special says the
U. S. Consul at Honolulu informs the
State Jepartmnt that some seamen cap
tured on an American whale-ship by
the pirate Shenandoah, and landed on
Ascension Island, are en route to ihe
United . States.
The proper authorities have under
consideration th argument of Semmes,
the pirate, claiming the right to be dis
charged under the Sherman-Johnston
parole.
A line screw ram, built by Messrs.
Laird S" Bros., Liverpool, has sailed

is a sister vessel to the ram now lying

The World's Washington special
,says it is stated thut our Government
has arrived at an understanding with
the French government, and that to all
intents and purposes the difficulty be
tween them is sealed. The French
are nbout to 'cave Mexico, and the U.
S. Government has waived any iiien
tions to enforce ihe Monroe doctrine.
There will probabiy be no recognition
of Mexico, but there is a pledge ex
pressed or implied that the United
Sta'es will lake no overt means to de
pjse Maximilian and put Juarez or
any one else in his place. While it is
not likely that formal diplomatic rela
tions will be opened with the Empire,
a quasi recognition will result from :he
prt-sent understanding, that is Consuls
