The Conceivable Railway.

The Connellsville Enterprise of Nov. End, in
an article touching the question, DO Railways
make buslneSS?' concludes as follows:
To satisfy ourselves i'll regard TO this matter, let
us ask what cur road is dong. 1t was feared by
many Of the knowing ones, that it WINS the height
OF folly 10 commence the running of locomotive
and ca this Fad, until the connection was
made nj Turtle Creek; that our little Iownof Con-
nellSvils would afford very meagTe amount OF
feight. and of course thestatUns between this and
West Newton would afford mach less. How does
this prerlcliOn hold out? 1t has proven to be a
false Our road commenced running from
West Newton to ConnelIsvilI= on the 18th of
September. 1t is now little over one monthH and
half since the road was opened, and our freight
trims now average daily al out IS tons. On last
Saturday rode down in the freight train bear
Ing twenty .iour tons burden ior West Newton,
while it accumulated on the way. WEo would
have thought such large amount Of freight would
have ten SbiI ped daily at ConnellSvie alone!
Certainly hone Of those who doubted the prOpIiety
cf running trains on that portion OF the road now
finished. Judging lEom the amount Of IGeight
shipped at VARIOUS times, when we had business
down the road, and The amount changing at the
intermediate stations. we were convinced beyond
a;doubt that railroads made business in almost
cry part Of the country through which they puSs.
II we have evidence OF such good effects already,
simply from the transportation Of gain, -four and
