The cars ON the Illinois Railroad passed over

The cars on the Illinois Railroad passed over
the new bridge for the first time on Tuesday, for
the purpose of testing its strength. The bridge
appears to answer the purposes for which it was
designed, although it possesses no very beautiful
qualities. The Depot is on the East side of the
river, where the cars can be seen. BY the way, a
great deal has been said about the ''wealth" OF
the Illinois Railroad Company. We have heard
it surmised that this Company are not now, nor
have they been, paying their expenses for some
time past. As soon as this fact is known, and it
must be made known soon, as the stockholders
are getting uneasy, the stock will depreciate.-
What then becomes of our magnificent bubble OF
a Railroad? Stand from under, you who have
been duped into the belief that men who commit
and sanction fraud, will build you a railroad,-
we say, stand from under, for the whole gigantic
swindle will yet tumble to the ground. ''There is

C-Y1 If Mr.. Ingalls, other professional engage

Gy- If Mr.. Ingalls, other professional engage
ments will permit, believe it is his intention to
form juvenile class in vocal music. Now we
believe in music for children, as we believe in
fresh air, and baby jumpers, and Jack the Giant
Killer, and general Jessy Jupe education of
flowers and light hearted gaieties. The highest
duty of the parent after right principles is to fill
the child's heat with tender memories and soft
melodies things to shed their music and fragrance
on the sad, hard after life-things to be tenderly
mused upon long years after and never, never for
gotten. The song learnt in childhood has been
the single Joy and the sole salvation of many
wretch otherwise without God or hope in the
world. They say if you can teach despair that
old song--if the lost one can but catch the loved
strain--that peace will come again, and bubble
up on the restored accents and unlock the foun
tains of the pure child life again, and fill the
heart with all old joys If this be SO, it would be
well to teach your children music.
