The remarkable success of the Port
matloc and Fesiinog Railway in Wales
is attracting much attention among rail.
way and scientific men in England. The
RAILWAY NEws says Of IL: This is n
little line in North Wales, which wa.
constructed for the purpose
OF acting ~ tramway for slate and
stone from the hills OF Mcrioneilishirs
to the sca-shorc. II is now being used
as regular good and passenger line. =
The chief peculiarity in its construction
Is that the gauge il only two feet broad
Hence. though the line runs through u
very difficult country, the expense Oi
and working are so email
that the traffic yields the enormous rev.
cnuc Of thirty per cent. The reason j.
simply enough. II is because the pro-
portion between the dead weight and
paying weight is SO much less than up
on other railways. The engine and ten
der upon this line weigh about ten tons,
a against forty tons upon the wider gauge
OF other lines. Instead Of a iirst-class
carriage weighing seven and a half tons,
to carry thirty-two passengers. and re.
presenting nearly five hundred Of dead
weight for every passenger, the carriages
on the Festiniog weigh only thirty hum
drcd, for twelve passengers, and two and
a half hundred for each person carried.

| The above il but "a rehash Of what
more prominent Mongrel organs have

the Cincinnati Enquirer, in reply to the
Gazette of that city, as follows:
Ii Mr.. Pendieton's views had been adj

The debt, all of which has been paid in
coin or its equivalent, we should have
lliqnidated over 100000 in green
backs, at par, in which the debt is due,
and nothing else. According to their
own showing, S3, ,OOo,000 have been given
TO the bond-holders as a premium for
nothing. But there has been no reduc-
ton at all. The whole thing is mere
Ip:etensc. The debt was greater in Sep
ltember, 1869, than il was i'm September,
1866, by nearly 100000, 600; and yet,
for over four years, there has been peace
in the land.
But even allowing that $1,000, COO per
month have been paid toward the wip-
ing out OF the principal, what is that
when we pay SLIT, 100000 per year inter-
est in gold on the remaining principal.
Wcare paying one-third more for interest
even by their own statement, than they
say they cancel OF the debt, which is
really only changing the nature Of it,
with the deceptive purpose Of making
the masses believe they are actually re-
ducing it. Acknowledging it in its best
aspect, as we have said before. at that
rate the reduction would be $4,000, Goa

Remedy for The Peach Borers.

The use Of boiling water as remedy
for the borcr is not new, but has not
been gsnetally practiced, because many
have considered it too much trouble to
apply, while others feared its effects upon
their trees. Of those who have tried it
successfully is Mr.. &. Mark, Of Moor
field, West Virginia. He writes to the
Country Gentleman as fellows: yg~
There is q handy means for the des-
truction Of this heretofore fatal enemy
to the peach tree, which is practiced
here which has proved certain. beyond
pcradventure. 1t is simple, Of easy ap-
plication and expiditious. 1t consists Of
the use Of Loiliug ,uater applied to tho
collar Of the tree, in quantities varying
according to tho age Of the tree-in small
trees, soy one inch in dimeter, half q pint
is sufficient, and q pint is enough for
larger ones. Remove tho earth from
asound the tree few inches, from the
body and 4 few incheA in depth, and just
pour the water boiling hot on the exposed
roots, and it will kill every egg, as we'll
AZ worm, with positive certainty. 1t has
been tried hero time and again upon trees
that have been moro than half killed,
and q perfect restoration has been the
result IN every case. No danger need be
