RAILWAYS TwENTY-FIvE YEARS AGO.
The. Philadelphia Bulletin has come into
possession of a number of the London
Courier, of June 9th, 1929. In giving an
account of its contents, it says:
"More than half a column is occupied
with an extract from the Birmingham Ga
zette, describing the openingof "Shutt End
Railway" This work which was then re-
garded as extraordinary, ran from Kings
winford to the Strafordshire and Worces-
tershire Canal, and was of the enormous
length cfAree miles and One-eighth! A To-
comotive engine-then marvel of art
drew train of eight cars, carrying 800
passengers, "from the foot of the first in
cline plane to the head of the second, and
returning, being distance of 81 miles, in
half an hour, or at the rate of n miles pc,
hour! Subsequently it drew train of coal
and passenger cars, the whole train weigh
ing Isl tons, distance of II miles, 'in SO
minutes, being at the rate.9f nearly 8 miles
per hourl Afterwards the engine, with on
ly the tender and twenty passengers, ran q
mile on the road at the rate of 1 miles pei
hour All these exploits were witnessed
by an immense crowd, who were amazed
at them, and his lordship, the Earl o.
Bradford, graciously expressed himself
much pleased with the extraordinary pow
ers of the engine" It should be remem-
bered that is the only rs years, or within
the age ofmost of our readers, that these
wretchedly slow performances, which would
not be tolerated by the meanest railroad
now in existence, were regarded as almos
miraculous in England"
These curious facts will enable lis tC
calculate the progress we have made, il
this direction, in quarter of a century.

GOODNESS OF GoD.-The silk worm can
not accomplish the object of its creation
without the mulberry leaf-the substance
on which it feeds-and, as if to insure the
continuation of this useful species, has SO
ordained it that no other insect will partake
of the same food, thus insuring certain
supply for the little spinster. This appears
a small matter,yet It as clearly exhibits de-
sign and goodness in the creating Power
as the laws which hold the bodies of our
astral stellar system together.

CALIFORNIA WHEAT CRoP.-It is appre-
hended in California that the wheat crop Of
the State this year, will be too large for the
mills to be able to grind it all. Breadstuffs,
the papers say, will henceforward be cheap,
and the money now sent to Chill @the east
to buy -four will beretained in the country;
thus, while the price of provisions will be
low, money will be plentiful They fur.
ther say that -four will soon be exported
from California.

A NOVEL CASE. We heard yesterday
of singular case, which, unless it is am
iacably adjusted, will come before one of
our Courts in few days. The crcumstan-
ces, as related to US, are as follows: About
six years ago, a gentleman from this city
left for California, leaving behind hima wife,
and lot in the western part Of this city,
worth $500.
In two years afterwards, the wife re-
ceived the Intelligence of the death of her
husband. Within eighteen months, she
married the second time, and afterwards
disposed of the property lot, in order to set
herhusband up in retail business, and thus
far they have lived happily together, and
succeeded in making money off the lot. But
to the astonishment of ALL the first husband
returned home within the last two weeks,
alive and hearty as ever, but poorer in
worldly stores than when he left for the au-
rifreous regions. 1t appears that the re-
port of his decease was occasioned by the
death of person of the same name, which
report reached the wife through the news.
papers. The first husband had remained
only year or two in California, and mi
grated to the Sandwich Islands, where il
luck befel him, and in consequence there
of, he neglected writing to his better half
Finding how affairs are now,t the first hus
band seems desirous of regaining his prop
erty. Thus the mater now stands, anC
unless compromise is effected between
the paIties, the law will have to test tn,
merits of Cincinnati Commercial.

The WAY IT IS TO BE DoSE!--A young
man formerly in our employ, in whose We
racity we have all confidence, informs us
that while at St. Louis few days since,
he saw number of gangs of slaves en- route
for Nebraska, under charge of their own
ers. This is the way in which Nebraska
and Knsas are to be made slave territories.
Their contiguity to the slave states of Mis-
souri, and Arkansas makes it very easy
matter for shareholders to so with their
slaves, while their remoteness from the
principal points of emigration in the north
offers obstacles to their speedy settlement
by northern freemen. The appointment Of
slaveholding officers for the territories will
be Immediately followed by the election Of
a slavehoIding council, in each, and slavery
will be established and regulated by terri
torial law. "Squatter sovereignty is SO
fully defined and recognized that the laws
of the territories cannot be submitted to
Congress for revision, and as the last act in
the Nebraska tragedy, slavery is establish
