The work of the Forty-fr Congress is

Il What SCOPE OF COUNTRY WILL SUP
PORT A RAILROAD ?-Col Hammond, an
experienced railroad man, says that ter
ritory ten miles miles wide, on each side of
railroad, in c,unty. capable of sus-
tanning an ordinarily dense population, is
capable of supporting it. Whenever rail
roads run out from any commercial center,
through such country, they will be sure
to bring sufficient population to support
Them within a few years after their con-
struction, if it is not already there wheh
the road is projected. This is for railroads
OF the usual construction and equipment
1t is but fair to infer that narrow gauge
railroads, being cheaper of construction,
can be supported by proportionally less
area and population.-Paci6c Rural Press.

SH.AsS FAC Err,
cBARLEs F. ADAMS IN ENGLAND.

The coldness ofatemperament whichhas
always been so marked q peculiarly Of
Mr.. Adams stood him in great service in
his four years of diplomatic struggle with
the British government. No acerbities in
the intercourse OF the two governments
ever soured the cold urbanity of our am
bassador. No excitement in the critical
relations of the two countries, when an an
cry word from him migl have driven the
British ministry to step which had been
fatal to US, ever ruf1ed the frigid calmness
and politeness of the American diplomatist
If Earl Russell offered Mr.. Adams two
fingers, Mr.. Adams offered the earl one if
the Englishman was frigid, the American
was icy. s. Temper or the froth of words
never covered up the one great object he
always held in view-ta keep back the
British government from alliance with or
encouragement Of the rebels. His perfect
calmness, his politeness, aud his complete
understanding of his profession and his
mission, enabled him to accomplish SER
vice to his country such as no American
diplomatist has ever rendered Had we
suffered under the misfortune of having
some "blatherskite," some. windy and ex-
c'table talkerr who did not understand the
English governing classes, in the place Of
Mr. Adams at the court Of St. James, it is
not too much to say that years would have
been added to the civil war, and this whole
country might have suffered as the South
did. When the proper time came, our
polite ambassador could say the strong
word. The sending out of the rebel arms,
lie Informed the British government
''meant war" No doubt his previous
moderation made this last quiet threat the
more impressive.

THE Dukes adorers harp great de,

The Dukes adorers harp great deal
about His Excellency having throttied
some vile schemes near the close Of the
session, in which his veto was sustained by
fourteen honest Senators Now this is all
hunbug-the honest part of it-for it is
well known to have been a political bar
gain. Every one of the immortal "fonr-
teen" had an axe to grind, and it was SO
understood at the time by all well informed
men, and it was then predicted that this
vile political swindle would be brought
forward 10 the next campaign as one of the
Governors chieftriumphs And soft has.
A rascally transaction entered into for the
purpose fscontrolling the non nations for
the principal Offices is now set forth as a
noble act of the Cover and the "four-
teen" by which countless millions was saw
ed to the State And the people are ask
ed to believe this internal he, as If Haight
not frequently before committed like acts
to advance his political fortunes. His or
gans, according to their masters theory,
assume that tho people are ignorant Of the
motives that governed his course in the
Legislature last Winter. But the people
are not such fools as the. organs pretend.
The events being brought to. light quite
satisfy them thata Mr.. Haight's actions
have been governed by selfish political con-

A SPKcx OF WAR.-The fishermen
seem disposed to keep this country in
a perpetual broil. Recently, for some
violation Of tho fishery regulations Of
the Dominion, the American schooner
z. A. Horton was captured by a Bri-
fish cruiser and taken into Gaysboro,
Nova Scotia, for adjudication. Her
owners, who resided at Gloucester,
Mass., did not approve Of this, but on
the contrary they sent a party to Gays
boro, who got on board the schooner
and made Off with her to parts un-
known. This Yankee trick naturally
incensed the Canadians, and there are
rumors Of British gunboats being sent
to the New England coast to recap
ture the schooner, which is supposed
to have been taken towards Glouces-
ter. On the other hand, an American
gunboat has sailed from Charlestown
Navy Yard to prevent any recapture
of the schooner In American waters,
although should she be intercepted on
tho high eas the British vessels will
probably have their own way. In the
prospective contest thus indicated is
to be found q speck of war, which it Is
f~ervently hoped that the early con-
summation Of the provisions Of the
Treaty Of Washington will prevent
arising in the future.

FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT
A Train off the Track !
FOUR CARS SMASHED UP
ONE PASSENGER KILLED AND
MANY OTHERS WOUNDED!

San JOAQUIN BuDaE, October 3d.
The overland eastern bound passenger
train, due at Stockton at 1920 r. NJ,
while within half q mile Of tho west
side of the San Joaquin bridge, and
after leaving the trestle work, running
at the rate Of Thirty miles an hour, was
thrown from the track. Five passen-
ger cars were thrown from tho track
and badly smashed up, two Of them
being turned upside down. Two
men had each a leg broken
below the knee and were otherwise
badly injured. One Of them will pro-
baby die. Their names are unknown.
The engine and baggage cars and the
rear a of the train remained on the
track. THE conductor of the train was
slightly injured in the arm.
: There were about n hundred pas
seugers on the train. The passengers
occ;. lying the four cars were all more
or less slightly injured.
The hind car, occupied by Governor
Morton, Of Indiana, and friends, re.
NAMED on the track, and In conse-
quence no one init was injured.
The track for fifty feet was torn up
in a tlrishtful manner, the rails being
bent almost double. Considering the
rate the train was running at the time
it Is somewhat miraculous that a larger
number were not killed. The embank-
meut where the accident happened
is some fifteen feet high. The acci-
dent Is all attributed to the high rate
of speed and the spreading Of one OF
the rails.
The greatest excitement prevailed
in this city, Information being brought
in that the train had tumbfcd Into the
river, and the Railroad Company tel
egraphed for physicians to come out
Immediately. ..s,gn rtY

COMPENSATION.

In the course Of events, In private
life as we'll as in the affairs Of nations
and communities, the pervading doc
trine OF compensation reveals itself.
He Is tho true philosopher, who, In
stead Of lamenting over a disaster, or
a disappointment, considers what Is
next best to be done; and, instead OF
maguifying evil, sets himself to COM
putting what good may come out OF
events which, in their first aspect,
seem only disastrous. Many q man
has been put in a condition above his
fondest expectations by events which
appeared ON their occurrence to be ter
rible misfortunes. In nature Is this
true as we'll as in society. The climax
of a severe disease Is not seldom fol-
lowed by the renovation and better es-
adjustment Of health and strength.
The recent calamity to the city OF
Chicago has injured some persons I'M
doubleday past remedy. TO Others 1t
has been the cause Of death, and to the
surviving friends, Of bereavement.
Many have been plunged into poverty.
But those who have ssfered pecunla-
rily have the reasonable consolation
that they have not themselves to re-
preach; and instead Of encountering
that want Of consideration which not
seldom chills the unfortunate in trade
or business, the sufferers by tho recent
calamity have the sympathy OF the
world with them. In this very SYM
patty Is one great compensation. 1t Is
OF unalloyed value, because IL 10 world

view wofully, and in some sentimental
and artistic aspects irremediably, a

Devastated Paris could almost resent
the offer Of aid from her late opponents
In arms. But In the cast Of Chicago
