Per cent-say rs per oea! Of the net
! earninss-sre regularly got sside every year to
keep the line in repair. We make 40 such rsser-
vati5n on the contrary our rosds have been in
the habit OF paying in the shape of dividends
not only all they earned, but about as much
moro besides, which they borrowed We arc
speaking On the faith of engineers reports when
We Fay that tie two creates. lines in this State
will require next year three millions worth Of
repairs each, or they will have to be stopped.
II is so with all; in mary instances, the twenty
five per cent of the gross earnings which is left
after working expenses are paid will be too small
to balance construction account
Out OF the balance that il left will have to
come first the interest on the bonds, next the
dividends on the stock. We pass over the lat
ter, rs they can be ''passed" without doing any
damage, But the interest on the bonds must be
paid. The Erie road, for instance, has in round
numbers $27 900 900 of bonds, on which seven
per cent must be paid at the regular dates or the
road will be sold out How can this he done
when the earnings are swallowed up by expenses
and construction account?
We make no distinction between the Erie and
other roads; they are all alike in this respect;
none can earn enough to pay interest on their
bonds regularly, and therefore day must come
when all will be sold out.
But what theu? Shall they ease to exist
Shall they be worked at loss. By DO means;
nothing CT the kind is probable. The stock
hoiders will all be strangled; then the road,
freed from their incubus, will, in the hands of
the first mortgage bondhoIders, for the first time
find itself represented by capital on which it is
possible to earn money. The new holders,
having no stock To maintain in Wall street, will
be able to devote all their energies TO the business
before them-that of carrying passengers and
freight; they will be able to proportion fares,
working expenses, ard construction account in
such manner that IL they do not make ten they
may make five, four or two per cent per annum,
AID be satisfied with that; they will in word
fin6 themselves the owners of a real practical
business enterprise, and not great stock sham
for the gamblers OF Wall street to speculate in
This, we take 1t, Is the future of all our roads,
for some the day may come sooner, for Others
later; but all must come to it at last and in
most CAGES the sooner the better. Twenty years
hence railroad stocks will be q thing 30 more
specuia.ed in Or talked Of than the stocks of the
old turnpikee.

The NATIONAL SCHoOLMAsTER.-
When our Republic rose, Noah Webster
became its schoolmaster. There had
never been great nation with a univer-
sal language without dialects. The
Yorkshireman cannot now talk with a
man from Cornwall. The peasant of
the Liguarian Apprentices, drives his
goats home at evening, over hills that
looked down on the six provinces, none
of whose dialects he can speak. Here,
5000 miles change not the sound of a
word. Around every freside, and from
every tribune, in every field of labor
and every factory of toll, is heard this
same tongue. We owe it to Webster.
He has done for us more than Alfred
did for England, or Cadmus for Greece.
His books have educated three genera
tions. They are forever multiplying
his innumerable army of thinkers, who
will transmit his name from age to age

a graphic account of the pearl fishery in
New jersey. That the muddy brooks
of our neighbors are producing real pearls
is no hoax, but veritable truth, as the
well filled purses of some of the muscle
diggers will testify. The principal pla
ces where the pearl growing muscles
have been found are the Great Notch
brook, the Rock road brook, and Hobo
ken stream; but this species of shell fish,
containing pearls of greater or less size,
do not appear to be confined to these
alone. They are said to be found in all
the brooks and rivulets in Bergen coun-
ty, if not in all of the entire northern
part of the State. This discovery has
of course created an immense excite
ment throughout the neighboring dis
tricts of New Jersey. The people are
rushing to the brooks to dig for pearls.
One curious feature of the matter is,
that pearls have been frequently found
in these streams for the last half centu-
nv, and sometimes sold, but more fire.
