Champagne became a drug and straw

We returned home via Terre Hapte

The road is called the Great Amer

Portland, Boston, Hartford, New lla-
ven, New York, Newark, Philadel-
'phia, Baltimore, Cumberland, Mari

mes, St. Louis,-nearly 1900 miles,
through two millions of city and town
population. The cost from Baltimore
to st. Louis, has been some $30,0Q0,-
600.
The part now formerly opened is
from Grafton to Parkersburg, 104
miles; thence to Cincinnati, 1876 miles;
thence to St. Louis, 345 miles--total
645 miles, the distance from Balti-
more to tarkersburg is 3S3 miles;

924 miles.
The Baltimore and Ohio road eros
SEES the Alleghanies at Altamount top
of the mountain), 2,640 feet above
Baltimore ; and passes through some
score of tunnels, one of which, king
wood, is almost a mile long, two
tracks wide, and cost more than a
million of dollars. This road alone
employs $50 locomotives, 1875 passen-
ger cars, $500 freight cars, and 1900
men.
The North. western Virginia, and

Little DcCFit


The story Of Little Dorrit, which
has been in the process of publication
in successive numbers for a long time,
has just been completed and issued.
The advance sheets have been receiv.
ed from the author by 7. B. Peterson,
OF Philadelphia, who has published
the work uniform with the other vol
umes Of Dickens Works issued by
that publisher. We need not say
that Little Dorrit is a work which
will interest the public--everybody
knows the merits of Dickens writings,
and this last is equal, in graphic pow
er and skilltnl d%elineatiOns of charac-
ter, to any Of his previous works.
The plot is Of absorbing interest, upon
which is strung pearls and diamonds
Of descriptive writing. Mr.. Peterson
has now ready eighteen different edi,
tions of Little Dorrit," all ofwhich
have been published simultaneously
with the completion of the story, in
England, at an expense of Two Thou
sand Dollars for the privilege of hav-
ing the sheets, as they appeared in
England, sent to him in advance of all
others in this country. Enterprise OF
this kind is every way creditable, and
We trust the publisher will be gener-
ously repaid for his outlay. Price OF
the complete work, Fifty cents only.
He will accept our thanks for a copy.
