Mysterious DIsappearamces.

It is becoming no uncommon thing for a man or woman, absent from home in New York or some other large city, to myster- iously disappear and leave no trace. There is hardly week passes that the newspapers do not publish new accounts of some person missing. Among the latest is that of Mrs. Mitchell, young woman of 2s years. wife of an Unitarian clergyman in Boston. She took the cars on the 9th of September at Boston, telegraphing to her father-in-law that she would be in Philadelphia the next day. Since that time she has not been seen, except that sleeping car conductor seems to remember that such lady occu pied compartment with Mrs. Ames The Hartford CourG7at says:
 There is very slight ground for any conjecture as to her disappearance except by foul play. Her letter to her husband and her telegraph to her father-in-law seem to be conclusive as to her soundness of mind and her intentions. The only speck of danger that seemed to hover about her was the attentions of middle-aged man on the train from Portland, who advised her to go to second class hotel in Boston, and upon her refusal, advised her to continue her journey that night. Did he follow her? If any wrong happened to her it could not probably have been between Boston and New York, because she would not have left the train at any way station. But she would reach New York in the grey of the morning. She might take hack to the Philadelphia train. If she did that and was spirited away, the disappearance | of her baggage might also be accounted for, as she would be likely to give the hack man her check. As there is nothing to lead her friends to suppose that she would have voluntarily absconded, the mode of her abduction suggested seems the most probable. At any rate, there is one thing that needs thorough overhauling in the reform now inaugurated in the city of New York. The hackmen ought to be put under as careful surveillance as those of Paris. A stranger and woman would be safer in any bandit gang in Europe or with the wild Indians, than in charge of the majority of the brutes who sit upon the boxes o1 ] New York public carriages.

The NarroW-Gauge Railways.

The first locomotive built in this country for narrow-gauge railroad has been com pleted at Philadelphia at the Baldwin Works, for the Denver and Rio Grande Railway. Its total weight ill running order is 25. 300 pounds, of which 20, 300 is carried on the driving wheels. The gauge is three feet. The wheels are six in number, four of them of a diameter of forty inches, being coupled as drivers, with the one pair of leading wheels so arranged as to enable the engine to run short curves readily. The tender has four wheels, and can carry 500 gallons of water and about one and half tons of coal. In the various narrow-gauge roads in process of construc- tion or under consideration in this country three feet seems generally to be taken as the standard of gauge : but it does not seem that the question has been as fully discussed and understood as it's importance
 demands. The famous Festiniog Railroad in Wales, the first line of the kind to go in- to operation, is of only two feet gauge nominally-in fact it is half an inch less
 But this road was not built with the intention of using steam on ii. It was constructed in 1852 as horse tramway, and was so operated until eight years ago, when it was turned into a locomotive passenger railway and contrary to the expectations of nearly everybody except the self-reliant innovator who effected the change, proved a most remarkable success. The Department of Public Works in India, after a long inves- tigation, reported in favor of gauge for 5000 miles of road of two feet and eight inches, but finally adopted three feet and three inches. In Norway two roads of three feet and six inches are in successful operation. George Stephenson originally adopted the four-foot nine-inch gauge, be- cause it was used in all horse vehicles in England. When the parts of the first loco motive were put together, for some unex- plained cause it proved to be only four feet eight and half inches in gauge, and that was at once without ouestain accep- ted by railroads generally as the best stan- dard

NEW YORK, SEPT. IS, 1871.
 To the AmerScan Press Tn view of the strong expressions of sympathy have re- ceived from the press throughout all sections of the country, indicating willingness not only to sustain me, but rendering me the most cordial assistance in the future, l am induced to issue this circular letter 10 my newspaper friends in answer 10 the hundreds of communications which am daily receiving from them.
 l feel confident that I state the fact when say that no business man has ever been the recipient of more unanimous testimonial of confidence in his integrity, than that which has been rendered me by those with whom I have such extensive dealings, amounting to millions, during the nineteen years of my business career.
 The press alone are my creditors. have no goods in my establishment which are not paid for, and every note and obliga- tion has been met by me with promptness, notwithstanding that a systematic attempt has been made within the past three months, to prejudice my financial probity and cre- dit by persons of malicious inclination, who have circulated rumors which if they had- been believed, would have been sufficient to impair if not to ruin the credit of any bank ing institution or other business of capital. A more complete and satisfactory refuta- tion could not be given to the slanderous assaults than the action of the press, which without exception have on their own motion and with the most cordial manifestation of sympathy, extended my contracts to suit my own convenience.
 desire to reassure my friends, of the ex- cellence of my health and the buoyancy of my spirits, and my confidence-now that I have their support-that my success in the future will exceed their most sanguine ex- pectations and that with the beginning of the coming year I will be able to prove to the business men of the country that the true road to success is by liberal, judicious and continuous advertising. 1 may men, tion in this connection that my bills for ad- vertising the Catawba Grape Pills during the last four months were $l30, ,OOO, and that this expenditure, although at present comparatively unproductive, has by judic- ious publicity of its virtues, and the testimo- nials there to from it's consumers, insured it greater success in the future than could have been obtained in any other way.
 This communication is not intended so opportunity of returning my. thanks to the press and replying at once to the thousand warm and cordial letters 1 have recently recieved from them. But if it's publication can be made useful to the interests of friends, by proving to the advertising community the mutual relations of interest which may exist between them--publisher, editor and advertiser-I have no objection to any publicity which you may see fit to give 1t. Yours truly. H. T. HEIMBoLD.

For many months past there has been se- rious trouble in Catholic church in Hud- son N. Y. The people disliked their priest SO intensely that they closed the doors of the church against him and refused to &C., cept his ministrations. For time he went away and his place was filled by another priest, swho was acceptable to the people, but the Bishop finally ordered back the for. mer priest, commanded the people to sub init and threatened to excommunicate all who refused to obey orders. The members of the church were however not frightened by the threat but are still as determined as ever in their position. The Hudson Reg ister publishes card from a committee of the church, giving a long list of grave char ges against their priest.

Newspuper Borrowers.

This wretched class of small parasites Is again hit off by one of our exchanges, as follows: "Of all things contemptible, a man who will read paper at his neighbor's expense is the most contemptible espec- ially if that man esteems it his duty to lower papers collectively and editors gen. orally. They always meet the carrier first, snatch the paper, and after greedily devour- ing every morsel ofnews it contains, throw it aside, saying, with contemptuous curl of the lip: What trash; it is really fit for nothing but waste paper And yet day after day they seem as anxious to gain pos session of the paper, and seem as disappoin- ted at its non arrival as the good paying sub- scriber, who ever welcomes 1t as pleasant visitor. Strange world, this."

A PeriIOus Ride.

A correspondent of the New York Tunes, from New Hamburg, gives the following thrilling little story, which may be taken as warning for bad little boys who play around the cars A locomotive running as an extra on the Hudson River Railroad, arrived at this station from Poughkeepsie, on Saturday, being stopped here by tele- gram from that city, in consequence of a singular, and what might have been Q tragic incident. Before the locomotive left Poughkeepsie, four little boys who were playing about the depot, supposing it was switch engine, and only going little way down the track, climed stealthily upon the wooden guard just above the bumper on the rear of the tender. This guard is only six inches wide. Three of the boys sat down upon the guard, with their legs hanging over, and the fourth got astride of the iron link which protrudes from the bumper. They could not be seen by the engineer; the engine moved off and con- tinued increasing its speed until it was going at the rate of forty miles an hour The boys were in a terrible situation. They dared not climb to the top of the tender, for fear of losing their balance, and their cries were drowned by the noise of the engine.
 Over bridges and on the edge of preci- pices they were whirled, the tender surg. ing to and fro, the dust filling their eyes and noses, and almost choking them to death, and entirely obscuring them from the view of the fagmen and trackmen who were passed. The locomotive was sig nailed at this place, Mir. James Signor hay ing seen the boys on the rear of the loco motive when it left Poughkeepsie. The poor little fellows presented sorry sight, as they were covered with dust from head to foot. The boy who was astride of the link was unable to walk when taken of, his legs being terribly chafed by the mo- tion of the engine. The hands of the other boys were badly blistered, and the blood oozed out from under their finger nails, so tightly had they grasped the woodwork of the tender. They were nearly exhausted, and could have maintained their position but little longer, when they probably would have been instantly killed by the fall. They were taken to Poughkeepsie, where the in- cident had been noised about, and large crowd of people were waiting at the depot to see them when the train they were on arrived.
