The Marrow Gauge.

Gen. Rosecrans, who is q railroad
man of experience and prominence,
has recently written a letter advo-
eating the construction of narrow
gauge railroads. General Rosecrans
argues that regarded economically, q
railway is o hauling machine, and
that every unnecessary expense put
upon this machine adds to the cost
of hauling. which cost must be paid
by the people. In every proposed
new railway, he says, the question
comes up and should be asked. "will
q narrow gauge do the work 2" Con-
sulLing reason and experience on
this point, General Rosecrans asks
whether tho most crowded four feet
eight and half inch gauge railway
in tho tho United States has more
work than it can perform, and al.
serts that tho most prominent limo of
road OF narrow gauge carries five
times rs much freight over oach milo
as the most heavily worked road in
tho United States, and yet has moro
than sufficient capacity for all the
cars that pass over it. Under this
state Of facts, General Rosccrans ar
guos that thcre IS no necessity OF
constructing new lines of railroads
in this country with capacity. fifty
times creator than tho work they
will ever be called upon to do, and
asserts that any man who can show
that they should be SO constructed
can prove that six horse Concord
coach should DO built to give an in.
tantan airing.-Register.

We think we see the signs of an
early md acrimonious agitation on
federal politics by the Southern
press. We rcgreat this, and on sew
eral accounts. The first is, that we
consider it unnecessary. Every
man in the South holds substantially
the same sentiments regarding the
political situation, and therefore it is
unnecessary. In the second place,
agitation implies that there are ma
terial differences Of opinion when
there are not, and is Obliged to result
in harm. In the third place, the
people need quiet, and should be
kept free from all excitement on put
lie affairs. There is not the slightest
danger Of their voting away their
liberties, unless they are looked after
and kept in terment, as some poll
ticians seem to suppose. The psople
are all right, and will remain SO it
left to themselves. Fourthiy, the
South can now influence nobody by
political discussion, except against
herself. The very fact that We
mark out q line for the govern.
ment will be sufficient to put tho
Northern people against it. Mas.
terly inactivity is our true policy
The memories of tho war have not
yet passed away with the Northern
people sny more than they have with
us, and as We are in q worry small
minority we cannot expectto dictate,
nor to have everything just as We
would like it to be. The great end
and aim Of every truo patriot is to
overthrow the present revolutionary
faction which has control of the gov
ernmont, and is hurrying it, with all
the national interests Of the country,
to pordition.-Savanndh Republican.

Moingona, the intelligent Wash
ington correspondent of the Pella
Blade, says:
Among the many distinguished
men from Iowa, now holding posi-
ton under the general Government,
l consider Gen. w. w. Belknap, as
the most descrvedly popular. Those
who know Belknsp twenty years
ago, find difficulty in realizing the
fact while in his presence, that he is
now holding one of the highest, and
most important positions that can be
conferred upon q citizen of the Uni.
tod States. He is the same plain,
frank, manly Belknap, ever ready
with an honest grasp TO welcome au
old acquaintance. Belknap although
educated in the school of the soldier,
seems to possess mono of those aristo-
cratic notions, 80 common among
men, whose early youth was spent
among the veterans of the regular
army; truly, may it be said of him,
that he Is ono of the people, belongs
to the people, and by the people will
yet be clothed, with the highest hon.
ors that can be conferred upon an
American. The mention of his
name in connection with the Iowa
Senatorial contest, know is wholly
unauthorized by him. Yet l feel
assured, that if Belknap was chosen
to represent the State: OF Iowa, in
tho United States Senate, that the
people of Iowa, and especially the
soldier element, would have . repre-
sentative who would not bend the
kneo to royal fiattery, nor forget the
best interests of tho people of hit
State.

ANOTHER HAN sToRaa

"Our troubles never come singly"
it is said, and the old saying has been
verified by an other hailstorm last
night. At any other time it would
have been considered big even here,
but after passing through the storm
of Saturday last, we consider it mild.
Probably about 500 lights OF glass
were broken out in town. The storm
began at dark and it continued to
rain till far into the night although
the hail all fell between 8 and Q
o'clock. Reports from the southern
and western portions OF the county
tells Us that the storm was very bad
in that direction.
The Railroad bridge over Walnut
creek five miles west Of Red Oak was
blown out, and the mail train going
west came very near being wrecked.
A man who saw the bridge 60 out
went down the track and succeeded
in stopping the train just in time to
save terrific accident. The train
was backed up to this plsce and this
morning at five o'clock was started
for Council Bluffs over the Branch
road via. Hamburg. The mail from
the west this morning was two
hours behind time in consequence of
this accident and came in over the
branch road having run down on the
st. Joe track as for as Nebraska city.
The storm all along Walnut creek
was terrific, and the crops suffered
fearfully. The houses Of Mr.. Alb
bott and Mr.. Eastman, situated about
six miles southwest of here, wero
blown down but fortunately no per.
son was injured, the families taking
refuge in the cellars. The house Of
Mr.. Delinger in the same neighbor-
hood was also moved from its foun-
dation. A house occupied by Mr..
Michael Smith and Landon Warren,
both single men, living together, was
blown over three times and both Of
them badly injured. Smith received
several injuries among which was u
fearful bruise on the shoulder. War
rem had two ribB broken and various
contusions on his head and body
Warren was found twenty yards
from where the house stood among
the debris, and Smith was carried
200 ysrds before he struck the
ground. Both of these men are do
ing well, and DR.. Martin who was
| called to dress their wounds furnish
es US with the above particulars
