THE PARALLEL RAILROAD.

'l‘liis hearing continues to be the center of
attraction. It was resumed last Tuesday
alternoon and called together a large com-
pany of railroad men. Judge Lyude Harri-
sm conducted the examination for the Con-
solidated road, Simeon E. Baldwin coming
in a portion of the time for to examine wit-
neases.

The first party heard tc-day was 0. Vin-
cent Cofiln of Middletown, a retired banker,
who had a large interest in the building, of
the Air Line road and was connected with
the read about four years. In‘ reply to ques-
tions from Judge Harrison, he stated he did
not think there was business enough to sup-
port a competing road along side the Air
Line. Should the present. pooling arrange-
ment of the Air Line road and the Consoli-
dated road be continued a rival road would
be very detrimental“ to the vested interests of
the town of Middletown. If by any reason
the pooling arrangement should cease the
rates of freight would naturally be increased.

John M. Camp of Middletown, a director
of the Air Line road, stated that the pooling
of earnings of his road with the Consolidated
road had not diminished the business of the
Air Line and that the people of Middletown
were as well accommodated as before. He
had heard no complaints of a lack of accom-
modations, A competing railroad would be
detrimental to the Air Line road, as it would
divide the earnings and the freights must be
lighter. A suspension -of the present jar-
rangements with the Consolidated road
would be detrimental to the stock of the Air
Line road. Under cross examination by
General Kellogg Mr. Camp stated that he
thought the business of the Air Line had
somewhat increased since the pooling ar-
rangement was made he knew of no rea-
son why the centennial trian put on in 1876,
which was an express, went by the way 0.“
Hartford, unless it was because of the better
grade, which made running easier and
cheaper. He did not think a competing road
would assist the Air Line road to improve
its grades. .

F. L. Gleason, treasurer of the Middletown
Savings bank, said that freights came to Mid-
dletown by boat. for 7% cents per hundred,and
he was confident that the freights had been
lower than by all rail over the Consolidated
and Air Line roads. , .

Henry W. Burr, president of the Middle-
sex bank, said that a competing line would
greatly damage the interests of Middletown
in the Air Line road.

 

Hanrrortn, Feb. 22, 1882.
The Connecticut Legislature was in ses-
sion today, an effort to secure an adjourn
ment over from Tuesday 'to Thursday in
honor of the holiday having failed, Among
the important matters favorably acted upon
was a resolution authorizing the Governor to
‘appoint a special commission to proceed to
Washington and urge upon Congress an ap-
propriation for the naval station on the
Thames, above New London. Such action
by congress, it is believed, will have on
important influence adverse to the proposed
construction of a railroad bridge across the
Thames River at New London. In addition
to meeting with objections in New York
State against doing an accident business on
the mutual benefit planithe Hartford Mutual
Benefit Life Insurance Company has met
with opposition from the Connecticut Insur-
ance Department. The company applied to
the Legislature for an amendment to its
charter, authorizing it to do business of the
character mentioned, and after an extended
hearing the Legislative Insurance Committee
has decided to make a report favorable to the
company. The vote, however—5 to 4—in-
dieates a pretty even division of opinion in
the committee.
Tne New Haven Courier has the following
article on the new railroad scheme which it
calls the “Parallel” probably because if
built it will run over the same ground, sub-
stantially, between New York and New Ha-
ven as surveyed by what was formally called
and has always locally been known as the
"Parallel road.” It seems to be a fair state-
ment of one side of the question, at least :

The-“Parallel” Road Scheme.

There is one'poiut in connection with the
“ Parallel” road scheme that has not received
the attention it deserves, and that is that a
Ipecialcharter is asked for.

Prior to 1871 all of the railroads in this
State were organized under special charters,
and those charters always prescribed the
route over which the road Was to go, the
method of subscribing for the capital stock,
and contained a clause compelling the com—
pany to actually expend within one or two

. yearsasubstantial sum of money upon the
construction of the road. Further. in order
to guard persons who might purchase bonds
from being imposed upon and to seeuie a
substantial -‘hacking of property for the
bonds, the Legislature in 1842 passed a gen-
eral law authorizing railroad companies to
'borrow money upon bond and mortgage, but
. forbidding any company having bonds out-
standing at any one time to a greater amount
than one-third of the sum which the presi-
dent and chief engineer of the road should
mrtify under oath to the Controller had been
actually expended upon the road, and false
swearing upon this subject was made perju-
ry. This law required two dollars of stock
to be paid in for every one dollar of bonds.
But even under this careful system the first
mortgage bondholders of some of the rail-
roads organized under it never received the
full amount of their principal and interest.

In 1871, in order to obviate the necessity
of asking for special charters, a; general rail-
road law was passed under which twenty-five
persons may'organize a company and build a
railroad anywhere in the State,provided that
they cannot bridge a navigable stream with-
out special permission of the General As-
sembly. This provision was, of course,
necessary in'ordcr to enable the State to pro-
tect its large navigable streams. The gen-
eral railroad law requires the persons who
propose to build a railroad under it to sign
articles of association, giving their names,
principal places of business, the route and
length of the road (approximately), the
amount of the capital stock, and the names
and residence of not less than nine directors
of the company. This useful information is
to be filed in the office of the Secretary of
State. The articles of association must also
be accompanied With the report of an engi.
necr showing the surveys, profiles and prob.
able cost. of the road, but as no road can pos-
sibly be built in Connecticut for less than
$50,000 a mile this is no hardship. It is also
necessary before organizing for work that at
least $5,000 of stock for every mile must be
subscribed, and ten per cent. of this‘must be
paid in in cash. As this requires only 515500
on every mile to be paid in advance, it is no
hardship if the company is organized in good
faith. Further, a majority of the directors
must always bc residents of this State, which
is certainly a proper provision for the inter-
ests of the Connecticut public. A majority
of the directors of all the principal railroads
in the State, except the New York and New
England live in the State, and it will be a
bad day for Connecticut when they the di-

rectors of its railroads are beyond the reach
of the State authorities except by special
legislation. Another provision of this law
is that the amount of the funded and floating
debt of a railroad corporation organized
under it can at no time exceed the amount '
of cash actually paid in upon the capital
stock, This only requires one dollar of stock
behind every dollar of debt, and is thus more
favorable to the promoters of railroad shemes
than the similar provision under which the
old railroads were constructed. Further,
corporations organized under this act are
obliged to expend at least ten per cent. of
the amount of their subscribed caflal in
construction within one year after the organi-
zation is perfected, and the road must be
completed in five years. This provision pro-
tects land-owners against long-delays in get-
ting pay for land damages, etc.

This law was approved by Governor Jew-
ell, who is new one of the? foremost in the
“Parallel" scheme, and who testified the other
day that he read the law at the time be ap-
proved it, and he did not discover or know .
of any impracticable provision in it. There
is no difficulty under this law in building a
railroad honestly, but it does prevent the
construction of a railroad with bonds alone
so that the stock can be given away to an in-
side ring. A road constructed by bonds
alone is pretty sure to ultimately defraud the
innocent bondholders. Under the operations
of a loose system Credit Mobilier and con-
struction companies are formed,and the pub-
lic is in some way defrauded. And~ if.
the road proves a success, travelers and
freightcrs are compelled to pay dividends on
an amount equal to twice or more than twice
the cost of construction, as is the case with
the Union Pacific and other roads which
might be mentioned.

Of course in asking for a special charter
the promoters of the “Parallel” scheme ask
for special privileges. Before these privileges
are granted, the Legislature should discover,
if it can, whether or not the public will be
at all benefitted by them.

AN AWFUL HARVEST.

Guiteau is an illustration of “ wild oats"
gone to seed. As a boy he was reckless and
ungovernable. Further on we find him at.
Oneida Community, that leprous plague spot
that the State of New York has not dared
or cared to sweep into the sea. His only
thought as a boy, youth or man has been to
gratify his depraved nature, and the more be
fed it the more debauched it became. He
lounged about saloons and cheap bible, in-
fiammed by drugged whiskey, and bloated
by his own self-consciousness, fancied him-
self a statesman. Because true to himself
and his country Mr. Garfield refused a place
of trust to this graduate of the dens of ini-
quity, be fancied himself grossly injur-
ed, and vowed vengeance. The world knows
the restLand the Nation sits in ashes.

Mr. Garfield more than any man at the
moment represented the full—blown flower
of American liberty. From a poor, hard-
working boy, he ascended step by step to the
highest positions in the land. He was dis-
tinguished for his finished scholarship, broad,
liberal statesmanship and Christian character.
Guiteau was the natural ofi'spring thflc saloon,
and of Oneida communism.

Has it come to that, fellow citizens of this
vast country numbering more than fifty mil.
lions of free people, that your will at the
ballot bpx shall be defeated by one of the
progeny of the Nation’s curse? It has come
to that, and America may well shudder-be-
cause of the thousands of dens of vipers
within her borders, licensed by the Govern-
ment and protected by the State.

If that would bring our dead President,
back again would we not like remorse-strick-
en Judas throw down upon the pavement all
the blood money for. which we have licensed
this infernal traffic ? Alas, beside the mother
and wife and children of our President, tens
of thousands of wives and mothers and chil-
dren have been thus crushed to the death,
and it yet goes on, and the people will not
think. I n. w. A.

DR. THOMAS GUTHRIE.

The late Doctor Guthrie,of Edinburgh,was
loved and honored as well on this side of the
ocean as on the other. He was one of the
most earnest and practical Christian workers
of his day, a staunch friend of Temperance.
His spirit was akin to‘ that of the great Dr.‘
Chalmers, wholooking out with him one day
upon the slums of Edinburgh, said to him:
“ A beautiful field! yes, a beautiful field!”
They both saw in it a great harVest field to
be reaped for their Master, and with Him
nothing was impossible. '

A beautiful tribute to Dr. Guthrie was
once given in a low drinking den in Glasgow.
A number of drunkards were making remarks
not at all complimentary to ministers, when
one of them interposed with, “ I’ll tell ye a
gudc mon, u really gude men.” “Wha’s
that P ” asked three voices at once. “Wecl,”
was the reply, “ that’s just Tam Guthrie.”
"Ayl you’ve said it n00,” was the remark
of another. “ I believe Dr. Guthrie to be as
gude a men as ever waggit his pow in a poo-
pit. He's different frae the ithers a’ thegith-
er. He practises mair than he preaches.”

References to the microbes—or microscop-
lc organisms of fermentation and disease—
bave become so frequent that this classifica-
tion of their varieties by Mr. W. Hamlet
may be of interest: 1. Microbes which
appear as points are called monads,-moncra
or mz'crocqcz‘a. They are motionless, and may
be regarded as the spores of other microbes.
2. Motionless linear microbes—the bamridf-
one and the bacilli. To them belongs Bacillus
arithmetic, which produces the dreaded sple-
nic fever of cattle and sheep. 3. Cylindrical
mobile microbes, having rounded ends or
contracted in the middle so as to form an 8,
are the bacteria proper. Among them is
.lluctcri'mn tcrmo of putrifwtion, the com-
monest of all. 4 Flexuotis mobile mien:—

cs. They look and not like , eels, and
differ but little from the equally active bac-
teria. They are the'oz‘brr‘os. 5 Spiral mi-
crobes. resembling a cork screw, and nmhile;
.Spt‘rilla spir’ochetoc. Their presence in human
blood appears to be connected with inter-
mittent fever. 6. Microbes with beads. very
active, having globules larger and more re-
fractive than the rest of the body at one or
both ends. These globules are apparently
spores ready to be detached from a bacterium
-—Bacteri'um capitatum. Besides these six
principal states, the microbes form agglom-
erations in which their appearance is some-
what changed, these masses receiving dis-
tinctive names. There seems to be no way

‘at present of distinguishing between a dis-

ease-producing bacterium and a harmless one
by sight. , ,

It has lately been proven experimentally

In view of the ravages of the phyloxers,
which have so seriously interferred with vine
growing,aFrench agriculturist has sought
to discover a substitute for the vine, and is
said to have obtained very good results with
a variety of red beet. This beet yields a wine
which is said to be equal to many of south»
ern growth, and the plant has the advantage
of being adapted to almost all soils and‘cli-
mates.

' Prof. Blyth, lecturing at Glasgow, has
called attention to the adaptability of the
oxyhydrogen light for general use. The
illumination is very brilliant and beautiful,
the gases may be stored and delivered in the
same manner as coal gas,and he believes that
the system may be made economical - by
using wind or water power to produce the
gases. '
Several interesting archtelogical "finds”
in Europe are reported. Near Caltanishtta,
Sicily, several caverns have been found,
which are evidently burial p) less dating
from the period when the ancient Sicilians
had already been ousted by the Italian tribes,
but before the Greek colonization had begun.
At Nordrup, Denmark, the remains of seven
human bodies ha‘ve been found under a few
feet of pumice atone, numerous bronze ob-
jects, gold rings, Roman glasses, mosaics,
glass beads, etc ,being also discovered among
the remains. ‘

Astronomers’ knowledge of the remarkable
ring of small planets traveling between the
orbits of Mars and Jupiter, commenced with
the first day of the present century, when
Piazzi discovered the first of these objects.
which he named Ceres. Other discOVeries
followed at. irregular intervals until, in 1845,
the number of thesgsmall planets—or aster-
oids, as they are usually called was increased
to five. Since that year the list has extended
very rapidly, and 220 have now been discov.
cred. No estimate can be formed of the
total number of the asterords. They are
very small, and Leverricr has computed that
their combined mass is probably less than
one-fourth of the earth’s mass. From the
size of Vesta, which is estimated the size to
be 319 miles in diameter, they dwindlc to an
unknown minuteness. Herr Hornstein has
communicated to the Vienna Academy the
result of researches, which appear to prove
that the number of asteroids with a diameter
of over twenty-five miles is extremely small,
and that. probably all such were discovered
before 1850. The number with a diameter-
lcss than five miles seems also to be very
small, at least in the inner parts of the aster-
oid zone next hIde; in the outer regions
next to Jupiter there may be a more consid-
erable number of these very .1311 bodies.
Most asteroids seem to have diameters be-
tween five and fifteen miles. The average
number with a diameter of five to ten miles
discovered during the last twenty years is
about three each year; the yearly number
of ten to fisteen miles in diameter is about
one and three-fifths. Herr Hornstein be-
lieves, therefore, that unless .mueh more
powerful telescopes are used future discover-
ies of asteroids will be chiefly confined to
those measuring five .to fifteen miles in di-
ameter.

 

 

 

Wine and Drunkenncss.

To say that the native wine of s. vine-
growing country is not promotive of intent,-
persnce, is to say that the Bible talks non
sense when it tell of Noah's being stupidly
drtink on wine from his own vineyard.
Even if men were to deny the Bible story
about Noah's wine, I could testify that l
have seen men drunk on native wine, both
in Europe and in America, and that I know
so much of thc‘danger of wine-drinking as
leading to intemperance that I am afraid to
drink wine or beer, at home or abroad, lest
I should become a drunkard myself, apart
from the question of my example before
others who are weaker than I am—if there
are such—Exchange.

Why It Is.

Bob Burdette, in the Burlington Hawkeys,
gives this bit of advice : You want to know,
do you, my son, why it: is that with all your
management you can’t live on your salary,
and are always in debt at the end of the
year ? Well, I’ll tell you, Telemschus, why
it is, and it won’t cost you a dollar.for the,
information. It’s because you are trying to
have a $1,200 time on a .600 salary, and it
cant he did. Older men than you have
tried it, and failed right along. A $300
boarding house and a $800 livery stable just
exactly cuts the last coupon of your salary,
and then how the man who makes your
clothes expect to get anything out of you is
more than you can tell him. Yours is a Very
simple case, my dear, and you can apply the
remedies yourself, and perform the [EECL'SSlll‘y

A

. Restorer Ever Used. . :-

Thc Unexpected.

 

Ben Boscn was a sailor man,
But hot. it man assailer,

Therefore he Would not whale a man,
He’d only man a Whaler.

He’d sail the seas and seize the sail,
And when he’d heave the lead

He would be lead to heave, and pale,
Throw up the sponge, most dead.

He’d eye his pipe and pipe his eye
When smoking was forbidden;
When wet he‘ll say that he was dry

And search for liquor hidden.

Sometimes he’d see a ship, sometimes
He’d only ship a sea.

The climes he saw were mostly climbs
Upon the must to see.

Ben’s bardtack was to tack the ship;
Yet never man was sooner

Than be, when in the slip, to slip
And quick attack a “ schooner."

He was aboard when on the sea;
When on the shore a boarder;

Though not a boarding pirate, he
Was then a pie rate boarder.

Though Ben could not direct at sea,
At sea he could die wrecked;

His resurrection day would be
The day they’d raise her wrecked.

One day ashark went swimming by,
And Ben, alas, he filled him,
No shark, they said, could make him die,
Had not the shock first killed him.

Tlie Printer’s Waning.

 

 

 

The printer told of the “galley” loved,
To his friend both tried and true ;
“And ‘Ed, it.’ may seem ‘comma’ cal,—

But I’ll give the ‘cuse’ to you.

“Her eyes are ‘Diamond,’ teeth of ‘Pearl’;
Her lips are ‘rcad’ and ripe ;

There’s 'Nonparcil’—excusc my French——
Of beauty she’s the ‘type'.

“You ought to ‘semi colon’ her,

I ‘set up’ with her nights,

Her 'form’ locked in my food ‘M bracc’—
She calls that woman’s rights.

“I’ve got her ‘solid.’ Oh, you bet
I’ll ‘stick.’ She's got the ‘quoin.’

I’m ‘going to pi'eSs’ my ‘chase' until
Both heart and hand we join.”

 

 

Preparing Peach Stones.

Several have asked how} to prepare peach
stones for planting, They are probably
aware, that when the stones are kept dry all
winter and then planted in spring, very few,
if any, will germinate In nurseries, the stones
are not allowed to get. very dry, but they are
stratified or bedded just ‘before winter sets
in. The usual manner is, to mark out the
limits of the bed and spread the stones over
it to the depth of two or three inches; the
stones are then .spaded in as if turning under
a dressing of manure. By this operation
they aredtstributcd through and well mixed
,with the soil, where they are left to freeze
and thaw all winter. This treatment causes
them-hes of the stone to separate and the
pressure within of the swelling seed can
push them apart. This may be effected by
other methods than that of spading in. The
stones are sometimes spread upon the ground
and covered with spent tan-bark or sawdust
to the depth of three to five inches, and thus
exposed to the weather. In spring, when
the ground is ready to plant, the stones that
nave been spaded in are separated by throw-
ing the soil of the bed upon a riddle, such as
is used by masons; the earth falls through
wuile the stones are left upon the riddle.
Those that have been under tan or sawdust
are more easily recovered ,at planting time. ‘

A Girl sued for Breach of
Promise.

The daughter of a prosperous English
farmer has been sued .for breach of promise
by a neighboring small farmer of her own
age, and a verdict against her has DLCD ren-
dered by‘a jury—a Verdict. which gives the
young man a i‘arthiug damages and no costs.
On the trial of the suit she denied the promise
it ) marry, except on condition that he was in
CHJdithD to support a wife. Letters from
h r, however, showed her entire willingness
turnarry him, in spite of the oppOsition of
her parents, and it further appeared that she
had taken part in repairs made to his hulls-e
In preparation for the wedding, one instance
of this being the choice by her of the wall
paper that should be used. But in ’a short
time the girl brokeofI the engagi-meut. She
was “very much vexed and grieved to do so}:
but "could not do anything very much against
her father’s wish.” The old gentleman, it
appeared, had been inquiring into the lover’s
circumstances’ and had learned that, for a
year past, he had been “losing money on the
farm.” Under these circumstances, he did
not think the match was one he should like
his daughter to make. Three months later
it appears that the young lady changed her
mind again. The suit had then been brought,
and she proposed, in spite of this, that they
suould “put matters back where they were in
August.” He replied that he was “quite pre-
pared to marry her," but. “much expense
had been incurred ;” to which she added an
offer to “ work the expense out. if he would
stop the action.” This generous offer appears
to have been'Qcclined a1togcther,and the suit
accordingly went on, with the result already
given.—N. Y. Times.

Salt; for the Threat.

An cxchagc says: When disease of the
threat is so universally prevalent, and in so
many cases fatal, we feel it our duty to say
a word in behalf of a most effectual, if not
positive cure for sore throat. For many
years—indeed. we may say, during the
whole of a life of more than forty years—we
have been subject to sore throat, and more
particularly to a dry, hacking cough, which
is not .only,d1stressing to ourselves, but to
our friends and those with whom we are
brought into business contact. Last fall we
were induced to try what virtue there was
in common salt. We commenced by using
112. three times a day—morning noon and
night. We diesolved u tablespoonlul of
pure table salt in about a half small tumbler-
fui of water. With this we gargled the
throat most thoroughly just before meal
time. The result has been that during the
meter We were not. only free from coughs
and eolds, but. the dry, hacking cough has
entirely disappeared. We attribute these
satisfactory results solely to the use of salt
gargle, and most cordially recommend a trial
or it to those who are subject to the disease
of the throat. Many persons who have
trled the salt. gal'gle have the impression that
it. is unpleasant. Such is not the case. On
the contrary, it is pleasant, and after a few
days’s use no person who loves a nice, clean
month, and a first-rate sharpener of the ap-
petite, will abandon it.

A Child's Laughter.
Is there anything like the ringingr laugh of
an innocent, happy child P Cali any. other
music so echo through the heart’s inner
chambers? It is sympathetic, too, beyond
other Melodies. When the father sits ab-
sorbed over his book, which seems to con-
centratc every faculty, he bears his little
boy laughing in his sports, and laughs also,
he knows not wherefore. The bright being
continually gathering intelligence, casts
around us gems of thought and pearls of of

feciion till our paths seem paved with prec—
ious stones from heaven’s treasury. No day
of storms is dark where he is, no wintry ev-
emngdong. A young child isa full fountain
of delight. to the house and heart.
