Railroads In New York.

AL0AAA0AAo IA ANOW ASAA'
The FIRST Railroad constructed in New York,
was the's'Mohawk and Hudson Road" II was
built by private resources under a charter Of the
Legislature. Ia August $780,. ground was
broke at Schenectady, and in about one year the
road was finished and put in operation. Speed
twenty two miles an hour A number of unfor-
tunate circumstances and bad calculations have
brought up the cost of the road TO about one
hundred thousand dollars per mile.
Now mark what history says Of the effect of
the first railroad in the State Of New York.
GAS soonoas the Mohawk and HUDSON Railroad
was in operation, it gave new impulse to this
branch Of internal improvement The State
would not at first touch the enterprise, but n
few wealthy gentleman happened TO be energetic
and wise enough to build the road by oprivatc
means 'in less than ninety days, the stock was
e,'sy s-N.', ~, rs 'nor. ,crpt." In 1882 appli-
cations were made to the Legislature Cor forty
nine separate charters for railroads, twenty
seven Of which were gragtcd. Or the latter,
six have been constructed; the Brooklyn and
jamaica, Hudson and Berkshire, New York and
Erie, Rensselaer, and Saratoga, T0nawanda, Wa
tcrtown and Rome. In 1888, six railroads were
chartered; three. of these have been constructed
tho Utica and Schenectady, Whitehall and
Rutland, and Buffalo and Black Rock In 1884,
ten railroads were authorized, five of (which
have since been nstructed-@Auburn and Sy-
racuse, Buffalo and Niagra Falls Long Island
