Effects OF COLD UPON RAILROAD ai.
cHisEnY.-The Railroad Journal saws
the last winter was ruinously severe fol
railroad operations. and several of the
lines above latitude 43 deg. suffered ex.
tensisely in the breakage of iron axles,
chairs, tiers and wheels. On the Yer.
mont Central Railroad, in a period OF
two months, seven.y-six wrought non
tiers were burst and broken; during the
whole winter fory-tMee driving wheel
centers, twelve cranks, and twenty. iour
connecting rods, besides large number
Of axles were also broken. For three
months the road bed was frozen as hard
as rock, and hardly train run through
without some failure Of machinery
The New York Central during the same
time suffered severely. The tracks sui.

Gfrsity Pee..

There's magis in a pretty foot,
And well the isdies know il
And she who has = pretty one
Is,pretty sure to show it.
At times you, too, are martyred by
The incest little ankle .a
That shoots an arrow through the eyes,
Within your heart tn rankls.
OF course you turn your gaze aside,
And all your bushes stiAe,
For well you know, she's not aware
Her skirts are raised trife.
But should you think she might perchan9e
Have a loosened gaiter,
Your fingers itch to play the par:
OF honest lady's water.
Though tantalized till she is crazed--
Stark mad with wild romancing,
That wltching foot along his brain
A thousand waltzes dancing,
The while it merely lightly pats,
As thoughtless she may move it
No modest man would dare to dream
There is leg above it.
But when it trips across the street,
Through winds, and mud, and vapor,
By sheerest accident you see
How beautiful the taper,
And As it steps upon the walk,
Amid the crowd t. mingie,
Two rogish eyes look up and ay,
al wonder if he's singler'
But would have no lady think
fancy her schemer,
And beg her to remember that
The poet is dreamer;
He sees what others do not see,
And seeks for hidden beauty
No pretty face can lure hun from
The path Of moral duty.
