THE RAILROAD RECORD.

The present number closes the THIRD
yearly Volume of The RAILROAD RECORD.
The retrospect of the past three years is
one Of vast and varied interest. During
that period we have seen the spirit. Of
railroad enterprise at its highest and
lowest points. We have SCENT inflated
by an unnatural growth, and easy money
market and speculative feeling rife in
enterprise irrespective Of merit And we
have seen it depressed to an unusual and
unwarrantable degree by commercial
revulsion unprecedented in the annals OF
our country revulsion where every
thing was at sea, the old landmarks of the
fpancier swept away and the most expert.
enced were at fault. During both these
periods Of initiation and reversion, the
Record" has maintained steady course,
advocating such line Of policy as to US
seemed for the best interests of our
country. 49,, ~: 1 ..
For the future the Record" will con-
tinue what its publishers have always
aimed that it should be the Adrocate Of a
thorough and judieious system Of internal
improvements - a system that shall de.
velop our national resources, husband
GU wealth and add to our prosperity.
:, STATISTICS. The RAILROAD Record"
has gived during the three years Of its
existence more, reliable. statistical infor-
nation than any other journal published
in the country. Correct statistics will
continue TO form prominent part Of

The change Of pablo sentiment in
Kentucky towards the dangerous doc
trinesi of know nottingham, is aptly
illustrated by the relative strength Of
the. party presses. Just prior to the
Gubernatorial election last August,
the know nothing papers have out
numbered the democratic and anti
know nothing by lnajorityof eleven.
Now the list stands democratic 10,
know nothing 10, and independent OF
whig, 8. Within the past twelve
months a number of know nothing
papers have died for want of support,
and several democratic presses have
been established. These indications
are definite as to the result Of the
Presidential contest in this. State
Kentucky cannot and will not vote
