tion and harmony by correcting his own errors,
II the way can be opened TO do SO successfully.
But in Pennsylvania, as in New York and
Missouri, the difficulty is to find some common
ground on which to recall the elements he has
so wantonly driven away from all sympathy
with the administration. II he would be just
in Pennsylvania, he must prescribe Cameron's
prescription by a large list of removals, and
select successors from the honest, unde6led
men of the State, each of whom would drive
nail in Cameron's political coffin. 1t would be
utter death to Cameron, for, being without
popular honor, he must dispense Grants
patronage TO make even show of sustaining
himself, and cameron will fight to the last
ditch against any new policy in Pennsylvania.
Had the President continued, as he
commenced, to discard Cameron as utterly
unworthy of confidence and favor, there
would have been no Cameron
power in the State, and the Republican party
would now be united, and notorious Cameron
would not have been han ging like milestone
about the necks of Cessna, Morrell, Armstrong,
Gilfllan, Stewart and Donley. All of them
would have been triumphantly elected, and the
Republican power of the State would be uu-
questioned. But the President was unfaithful to
his own positive and expressed convictions as
to Cameron, and he warmed him into new life
only to find disaster to the administration as the
reward.
1t has been strongly urged by many earnest
and sagacious Republican leaders that Governor
Curtin should be recalled at once and placed in
the Cabinet, but feel warranted in saying that
Curtin would peremptorily decline a Cabinet
portfolio. He never pressed himself for such
an appointment, aud now he could not accept
it. His present position is not in accordance
with his tastes but when he returns it will be
to accept the sincere plaudts of the people, and
not to seek official favors.
How the President will cut the political knots
which now entangle him it would be useless to
conjecture He makes the most unlooked-for
appointments at times, and he may do so again;
but be prepared for new programme of some
kind soon after his return from the City of
Brotherly Love.

Neiphborhood Railways.

The public attention has been recently
drawn to the performances OF British rail-
WAY with two-fect track, constructed very
cheaply. with light engines and cars. Inc
result Of its operations more than answered.
the expectations Of its projectors. i'S a"-
yantaees are The narrow track grf"''!

fore grades are not so important--thc track

and trcstlc work will safely answer instead
of fills--the track is exceedingly chcap-thc
working cheap-the cost of transportation
NAV be accordingly cconomical-and for
neighborhood purposes, by lateral lines OF
twenty mites or so, this light railway mas
proved to be an entire success.
The discovery will prove invaluable, and
will make the railway complete as mode
OF general tran sp ortation-the light rail-
ways being the neighborhood feeders OF the
trunk lines.
We have in late scientific journal an ac-
count Of railway Of this light capacity,
invented by NJ. LARAANLAT, OF France. IL
is a single rail tramway for limited district
transportation. The central rail IS 1,
weighing twenty-five and half pounds to
the yard. The locomotive has two central
wheels resting on the rail- and four driving
side-wheels resting on the road on each side
of the central rail. The cars also nave
similar arrangement of wheels. The cost
of the track upon this principle is placed
at s.. $50 to 81 $50 and f,4oo per mile, ac-
cording to difficulties presented. A loco
motive of ten tons is capable of drawinga
load of fifty tons up an incline of one III
fiftv Mt speed of six miles per hour;
locomotive OF five tons is capable of draw
ing load of thirty-five tons up IN incline
of one in fifty at u speed OF ten or eleven
miles per hour.
In this plan the side wheels are not fixed
to the axle. but run loose, so as to facilitate
the passage of curves. The weight rests
mainly on the central tram wheels, falling
lightly on the side wheels. which are used
to steady the vehicles. 1t is stated that the
motion Of the train on this principle Is very
smooth. the side wheels barely touching.
This railway, where the ordinary carthcn
road is good needs no side timberS, the side
wheels running upon the simple road pro-
pcrly lcvelled; but where the road Is bad,
side timbers are used, and these increase
the cost of the track. The single tram rSil
increases the tractive power of the engine.
There is one such line i'll France and seVe-
raj in Portugal, and the report is that they
perform very well.
1t is clear that the results Of the light
railway are such as to satisfy all OF It's
utility. Suppose that the Chesapeake and
Ohio railroad is built along James river \
light railway ten miles long from Lexington
to North river will enable the people OF
Lexington to connect with it at Balcony
Falls. SO this kind Of light railway might
be made to convey passengers to all the
Springs not Immediately upon any of the
great railways. We shall see this new rail
way generally used in time.
