The only three cities on the globe positively
known to contain over 100000 inhabitants
are London, Paris, and New York Gncluding
Brooklyn, the reported population of Yeddo,
Pekin, and other heather centers having been
proved to be wildly exaggerated. Berlin, St
Petersburg, Naples, and Vienna do not diter
very widely in population. though the Prussian
capital is growing more rapidly than any Of the
other cities, and is probably the largest By

The Fastest RECORDED RUNNING Tine
When the colt Longfellow WAS recently sold to
John Harper for about So an ounce. people gen
orally thought that the price was rather high
one, but when the animal, the other day at Ssr-
atogs, made his mile in lao the opinion was
Just as general that Mr.. John Harper was
very fortunate man. Poor Herzog's time on the
Buckeye Course, two years ago-a mile in l:i3-
l2-wss looked upon as most wonderful
achievement, and when Al Lexington, lsstspring,
Buford's colt Salins knocked off the half second
and came round in just l;43, the " fastest run
ming time on record was believed to be estab-
lished for many years to come. Now, however,
King6sber makes his mile in l:4l and loses the
heat by second TO this new wonder Of poetic
name and practical achievements If things go
in this way we shall hear of horse before long
that will knock of the odd minute and run his
mile in the even seconds remaining.

The Manchester Journal is Disguised with the
Lebanon Springs Railroad and demands a new
outlet to tide-water. Itssys it has lsbOred since
1867 to build up that road. but it is now COM
PEELED to give it up as sort Of one-horse sffsr.
The Journal suggests the following as 3 way
out Of the difficulties
As matters now stand it is unquestionsbly for
the interest Of our citizens to take immediate
steps to have the Rensselaer, and Saratoga road
run into this valley, by building branch from
Shushan by way Of Arlington to Manchester and
Dorset This would give us the required outlet
for our marble, lumber and other products, and
enable us to get coal cheap and all Western pro-
ducts at low rates as freight. Our passenger
trains would connect at Troy or Albany with
steamboats, or railroad for New York, or trains
East or West.
