THE RAILROAD RECORD.

The present number closes the THtRD
yearly Volume of THE RAILROAD RECON-.
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 seen it 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--a revulsion where every
thing was at sea, the old landmarks of the
fnancier swept away and the most expert
enced were at fault. During both these
periods Of initiation and reversion, the
"Record" has maintained a steady course,
advocating such line Of policy as to Us
seemed for the best interests Of our
country. " /
For the future the Record" will con.
tinue what it's publishers have always
aimed that ii should be the AdUocate Of d
thorough dnd judieious system of Internal
improvements IA system that shall de-
yelop our national resources, husband
on wealth and add to our prosperity.
STATISTICS. The ttRailrcad Record
has giyed 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 a prominent part Of
every weekly issue. .as.s IS FRI.

The publishers trust that the Record
will continue to merit the good will Of its
subscribers, and we hope that those who
sympathize with us in our enterprise will
use their endeavors to procure for US
more extended circulation in their inime.
