will not afford the expense of building and
working road of the ordinary size.
The number of lateral roads on all the trunk
lines will be greatly increased, and in densely-
populated rural districts every farmer will de-
sire to have railroad to convey his produce to
market. There can be very little doubt of the
success of such roads as feeders of the larger
ones, even If they do not in all respects answer
the expectations of those who have formed en-
thusiastic notions of what may be accomplished
by them. Roads but q few miles in length
leading from the stations of the main roads,
with cars to take the place of the stages now
used to convey passengers at the ordinary horse
speed, need not be run with the velocity of
through lines to make them very useful. 1t is
probable that the cars for the thirty-inch gauge
will be built with single seats each side of the
passage-way, which will be q very agreeable
arrangement for many travellers.
1t may be observed that single persons enter
ing car prefer to sit alone, and not few will
resort to the expedient of encumbering dou
BILE seat with baggage in such a manner as to
deter others from entering 1t. Single seats will
suit such persons admirably, although they may
not be so agreeable to those who travel in
couples.
We are assured that the gentlemen who have
undertaken to build the Allentown and Harris
burg narrow-gauge road have the means and en-
ergy needed to consummate snch work expe-
ditiously, and there are many who are sanguine
enough to believe that the little road will be-
come spirited rival of the East Pennsylvania
and Lebanon Valley road.

Amer miles of Life In Mississippi a RhoenIaIIer
Killed for Making a Pair of Boots 10 FIT.
We copy the following from the Jackson
POST
negro man was killed at FanniH, in Rankin
county, on Monday last. We are informed that
a man by the name of Casteel employed a colored
shoemaker to make him pair CT boots; to be
finished on Monday last. Casteel made threats
that should the boots not be finished, and failed
TO fit him, and be done by 2 o'clock on Monday,
that he would kill the colored man. At the time
DESIGNATED. Casteel repaired to the shoe
makers shop. The boots were not satisfactorily
finished.
AS is charged, Casteel took double-barrel
shot gun and shot the shoemaker in the back of
the head. The friends of Casteel who were
witnesses of this outrageous murder have left
this part of the country, bnt Casteel is in Gus
tody in Brandon, and we presume that every
reasonable endeavor will be made on the part Of
the officers of the law to mete out justice to him.

WASHINGTON RAILROAD QUARREL.
A Statement from the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad,

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
make public the following facts in regard to the
charge for through fare from Washington to
New York;
On December 9th, the Superior Court of Bal
timore city decided adversely to the claim of
the State of MARYLAND for tax on travel between
Baltimore and Washington. Although the State
at once appealed from this decision, the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad Company ordered re-
duction of its fare from S1'50 to 81 30 for this
travel, and telegraphed to the presidents of the
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore aud
New Jersey roads, informing them of the deci-
sion, and expressing its desire to join them in q
reduction of the fare between New York. Phila-
delphia and Washington.
The price for ticket between New York and
Washington has been IS. The Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company proposed to reduce to
$3.50, making of this reduction from It's pro-
portion cents, aud asking the Philadelphia
and New Jersey Railroads to deduct each IL &
cents, still leaving them Sc 05 between Balti-
more and New York, or $302l5 each.
These companies, on previous occasions, pro-
fessed willingness TO accept less than SO on
the New York ticket. They now refuse to
make this reduction. The figures proposed by
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company pay
its minimum rates-$l 20, and 2S cents for
transfer in Baltimore.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
has decided that, as these companies accept
$3.50 each for precisely the same service as
their proportion on various Western tickets
where competition controls them, that 1t Is SC
unjust TO the public to refuse 10 reduce tc
$3,O215, although, at present, no competition
exists, that it has determined TO break the
through ticket, and sell only itsblocal ticket, al
its reduced price, rather than assist in the col
lection of the extortionate rates demanded by
| those roads.
Important interests in New York, Philadel
! phia, and Baltimore are arranging to build
under State authority, a competent line, with
| which the Baltimore and Ohio Company will
| cooperate, when President Garrett anticipates
charge rp0uca1 m haf
Baltimore and Philadelphia and Philadelphia
| and New York.

The city national banks publish very en-
couraging report of their condition during the
week just passed, all the elements of strength
being present. The deposits snow an increase
of $749, ,264, the legal-tenders an increase of
$1S3, 1862, and specie $50, ,548. The banks have
also shown disposition to expand in proper
tion to their means, the loans being augmented
$632, 250. This expansion Indicates fair degree
of confidence in the future condition of the
market. The demand to-day both for call and
time loans is moderately lively, but there is no
degree of pressure, and money is accessible to
all having claims upon the market. Rates are
unchanged.
