The Panhandle Railroad.

1t is we'll known to the citizens of
that part of the Panhandle comprising
the counties of Hancock, Brooke and
Ohio, that there is, at the present time,
an effort being made, under charter
granted at the last session of the Legls-
lature of this State, authorizing the
construction of railroad from the
Holidays Cove Railroad through
Brooke county, by the line of the Ohio
river, to the city of Wheeling, to make
the railroad authorized by said charter
between those points. The county of
Brooke, on the day of the Presidential
election (November 3), voted by large
majority to subscribe 100000 to the
stock of this road. Subscriptions to
the amount of Sl7, 900 have also been
made by private individuals.
The railroad line between the points
TO be connected does not exceed twenty
one miles, the present county road line
being about twenty-three miles. This
route passes through perhaps the richest
undeveloped coal regions anywhere
known, for manufacturing purposes;
its great value being in the fact that
the sub-surface vein, the most valuable
coal known for manufacturing pur-
psses. lies between Steubenville and
Wheeling, and the positive certainty
that IT cannot be reached either above
Steubenville or below the city of Wheel
ing, and that by the construction OF this
road this coal can be put into the fur
naces in the city of Wheeling. AT Steu-
benyille this vein of coal is 200 feet be-
low the surface; above that point it be-
comes worthless. At the city of Wheel
ing il is between five and six hun
dred feet below the surface, but few
piles above it can be reached at
two hundred and fifty feet, and at a
trifling cost can be put into the mills OF
that city. The understanding is that
the Pennsylvania Central railroad in
terest will invest dollar for dollar in
in this road with other stockholders.
The road is short one aud of easy con-
struction and easy grade. 1t Is ques-
tiopable whether a road of equal advan-
tages to the people of the Panhandle
can be undertaken, and it is certain that
no route approaches this one in cheap
ness of construction. One hundred and
fifty thousand dollars by the citizens of
| Wheeling will secure them this read {,
atfording direct connection with the
North, Northwest and East. That this
road will now be constructed through
Brooke county is certain, and it is for
the citizens of Wheeling to say whether
they will have this important road at
trifling cost, with a certainty that the
road when completed to this city will
be paying stock. Without her coop
Grafton and aid it will not be built fur
ther than the Brooke county line, and
it is confidently expected that if IT does
stop at the end of eight miles it will
still be a paying investment.

The game laws of the different States
are far from being uniform. This con-
flict of regulations, it is asserted, pro-
duces great confusion, and renders in
effective the attempt to enforce the
statute against selling game out of sea-
son. For it may be insisted that the
bird was shot in neighboring district
where the pursuit of quails and pleas
ants is allowed. As an illustration of
the discrepancy between the rules on
this subject, quails are protected in
Massachusetts, from January to Sep
tember /; in Connecticut from Zebra
ary to October l in New York from
January to October 20; in New Jersey
from January 10 to November l, and in
Pennsylvania from January l to Octo-
Der |. Hence sportsmen are agitating
the question of national convention
to recommend a uniform law.
