THE PARALLELS.
Little, if any, prOgress was made last
week by, the now two rival Parallel Railroad
corporations. The application for a special
charter for‘the Hartford & Harlem pending
before the Legislgtture, will, with scarce a
dolibii he Njected. If the Legislature of
Connecticut felt it wise and for the public
good to refuse a special charter only a year
ago to such men as Marshall J ewel], Horace
Wilcox and others of our distinguished citi-
zens; it will not be likely to grant the present
. application to a corporation principally com-
posed of non-residents. The application for
the privilege of consolidating with lines
outside our state limits, is far more likply to
be granted in the way of an amendment to
our present admirable General Railroad law.
This is all the more probable because the
Consolidated Railroad, after a fortnight of
oppositidn awoke to the idea that such a fea-
ture would be of service to it as well as to
its enterprising competitors, and so now
favors such an amendment to the law.
In a full and unreserved interview with
one of the active promoters of the Hartford
&.Harlem, we were assured that the only
reason whya special charter or an amend-
ment to the General Law permitting consoli-
dation was desired, was that much difficulty
and expense would be avoided and their
stock and bonds would be esteemed safer se-
curities if their Connecticut line wasmade
one with their New York line extending to
a point opposite Second avenue, on the Har-
lem river and for which they own two spe-
cial charters granted by the Legislature of
New York and either of which are now
available to them to construct the best line
upon.
We were assured in the most positive terms
that there was no kitiug, stock-jobbing, or
other desire or purpose than to build in the
speediest manner such a first-class railroad in
all its construction and equipment, as should
rival any other road now built or any to be
built, and their honest intent was to ask
nothing of either the Legislature or of , the
Railroad Commissionérs that would not con-
duceto this end. We were moreover most
positively asauredthat were all their reason-
able petitions denied, the General law would
still permit them to build: their contemplated
road, and though there would be mapy em-
barrassments which ought to be removed in
the interest of public policy and welfare, yet
in any event, their road would be built. The
necessary capital was all secured and the
Hartford & Harlem company were waiting
the opportunity for its expenditure in fur-
nishingthe people of Connecticut with all
the competitive advantages of a shorter line,
withfewer curves, slower grades and better
terminal facilities in New York, than they
now enjoy. ‘
We were particularly urged to state that in
pushing this road through to the earliest pos-
sible fimpletion, it was the earnest wish of
the company to win and retain the friendship
of the people in all the towns through which
their line should pass. Recognizing that
such good feeling was of mutual advantage
the company would prove itself Worthy of
its bestowal, by so changing its lay-out when
feasible, as to avoid as far as was possible al
irritating conflicts with land owners and
town and corporate officials, and for such
property as they were compelled to take they
proposed in every case to pay full and ample
remuneration. With this purpose in view,
we were assured, that their engineers ha;-
been re-sent to Norwalk and other towns
' along their line, to see if equally desirabie
layouts could not be made, which should
avoid injury to and destruction of the homes
and property of parties objecting to being

formant thought it probable that a better line

would obviate all objection by Mr. Henry I
Hoyt, by having it run somewhere between
the borough reservoir and the James Bene-
dict homestead, although this change would
probably require the tunneling of Spring
Hill. This change from thepresent layout
would save the cutting into and virtually de
stroying the beauty and symetry of Mr.
Hoyt‘s elegant homestead, and the serious
marring of nearly all the improvements on
the upper end of Union Park and along
Franklin avenue to the mill pond. It would
also permit the running under Step Hill and
Spring Hill roads and so far above Riverside
avenueasthat teams could pass under the
bridge. Beyond the Amphitheatre, but one
or two houses would be despoiled—in lieu of
nearly a dozen, as by the first line, in the vi-
cinity of Main street. In short, we are as-
sured that thexwishes of the people will be
considered lin every reasonable respect and
modifications in the layout made, when such
changes will not tend to defeat the necessary
course, object and purposes of the new road.
Every community-and every individual of
such community, must of necessity, feel the
beneficial effects and be benefitted by the
vast expenditures involved in the completion
of such an enterprise.
provement, with the new and increased facil-
ities for freighting and traveling, will aug-
ment our general thrift and prosperity beyond
computation. All this is self-evident and
conceded and the masses‘ of the people are
earnestly in favor of a new and competing
railroad, and no public benefactor or well-
wisher of his state and community will
throw a straw in the way of its earliest, pos-
sible completion.
In reply to our inquiry as to whether this
resolute and commendable purpose to imme-
diately build the Hartford «It Harlem railroad
nouns eolsm, would not work injury and in-
justice to the veteran “Olmstead Parallel,”
our iriformant assured us that his company
had made all honorable endeavors to Save the
parties in that interest from loss. That his
company did not think that the ”Olmstead"
organisation had'eith'er a legal existence or
the means behind it to construct the road, if
the Hartford dc Harlem were out the way.
. That the latter company had waited all, last
year for the “Olmstead” parties to commence
operations, but to-day they were no nearer
the accomplishmhnt of their alleged purpose
than they were a dozen years age. It is quite
probable that the Olmstead interest have their
views on this subject. and if so, our columns
'are freely open to their expression. The
general public seem to care very little as to
who builds the new railroad. The first to
breakground and push along the actual con-
struction of the new line, will win the popu-
lar acclaim, be it Olmstead Parallel. or Hart
ford «in Harlem.

sioners are to meet as per adjournment at the
office of J. S. Seymour, and the Ira Cole

In all the churches special efforts were
made to impress the Christian worshiper by
the'stralns of vocal and instrumental har-

the temple of worship with. the increase of

and the devout seemed to' enjoy it as a day of
religious peace and joy.

, The New Uniforms.
The Consolidated road has decided to adopt
the system now in vogue on several other
large roads, viz: that of having all its cm-
ployes and train hands uniformed. The con-
ductors’ uniforms will be of dark blue broad—
cloth, frock coat, with brass buttons on coat
and vest. The brakemen’s uniforms will be
of dark blue flannel, sack coat, with silver
buttons. We are of the opinion that the
change will be for the better, although a talk
with several of the'conduetors shows a senti-
ment decidedly adverse to the arrangement.
The change will take place about the first of
May, and right here we will say that it is a
good chance for the road to display a little
of the generosity which has been practiced
on the Pennsylvania road with good results.
The brakemen with a salary of only $30 and
$40 a month will find it hard work to pay
for a suit of clothes such as above described,
even though it is done by installments. Let
the company make their employes, the brake-
men at least, a present of the first suit and
they will earn the gratitude of those who
work and work hard for the company’s in-
terests.
Painful Telegraphic Blunder.
Miss Edith, the youngest daughter of
Henry I. Hoyt, went some time since to
Towanda, Pa., to visit a friend. She was
taken ;seriously ill there with scarlet fever
and Saturday the following message was re-
ceived here: ’
- "Edith dying.
tiny.” .‘ .
The despatcll was forwarded to New. York
over the Baltimore 86 Ohio lines and thence
sent up here overgihe Western Union. Of
course this distressing message threw the
family of Mr. Hoyt into the direst distress.
But upon our operator, John Hoyt, seeking
for fuller details he found that the original
despateh had read:
“Edith doing well.
to-day.”
The revulsion of feeling upon discovering
the true state of the case can more easily be
imagined than described, and -every heart
will yearn in thankful sympathy with the
friends of the stricken Edith, who, we are
glad to add, continues to mend.

The turn at the foot of Washington street
to the carriage bridge is one of the most ab-

is to be done without encroaching on Mr.
Becker, who happens to hold good title to
the property where the turn comes in..is
more than the wisest and most ingenious
thinker can comprehend. If Mr. Becker
would allow the town to cut OR a flat iron,
and thus settle the vexed problem, he would
be entitled to public thanks. Another thing
should be done. The street at that point
ought to be graded up level with the line of
the bridge, whether the proposed straighten-
ing is brought about or not.

and others. The most remarkable cure is
that of‘ Col. C. M. Ferris. Mr. F. has lived
near neighbor to me the past eight years .
About five years ago I said to my wife, one
morning as he was passing my house,“I don’t
believe the Colonel will live six months.”
Soon after that a consultation of doctors was
held Doctor Perry, of ltidgefield, and Doc‘
tor Bennett, of Danbury, and two others.
They gave no encouragement. Ilia troubles
were constipation. rheumatism, dyspepsia,
and pal pita tion of the heart. and the doctors
said, cancer of‘ the stomach.
Mr. Ferris called ‘at or house one evening
last week, was telling u out his sickness and
what the doctors said, &c. His stomach was
so bad he ate but little and the little distress—
ed him. .Sajd he was almost discouraged.
About thls time Dr. llotvce heard of his case
and called to see him, and urged him to try
his remedy. Mr. F. said no at first, but did
nnd continued until he had used 8 bottles,and
is as well to day as any man in Norwalk
These are facts. Mr. Ferris an id the case
of Mrs. Henry Seymour, here in Norwalk, is
more remarkable even than his.
It is certainly a valuable remedy, and per-
haps isjust what younccd.‘
