than they can supply; but one house in our
city has been unable to fill the demand
made upon it; we mean sheib's Music
Store, Monroe street. The unbounded
popularity all over the country Of the Eu.
reka and Eureka Grand Organs made it
necessary to add largely to the factory
and new additiome6Ox12O feet, five sto.
ries high, has just been finished, which
will enable the enterprising proprietor of
sheib's Music Store to supply the demand
made upon him. Dozens Of persons had
to miss intended purchases because OF mo

teen Organs have been sold from Sheib's
in alittle over six months, and sufficiently
proves that the Eureka Organs must be
what they are represented to be, the
cheapest and best.

The Increase in the number of passengers as
shown above is attributable in part to the
additional daily passenger train which has
been run during the year, which also accounts
for amount Of additional mail pay received
The freight business Of the past year exceeds
by Il, l23 tons the tonnage Of the year preced-
ing, and shows BY comparison of the returns Of
previous years that the freight carried over the
road is steadily increasing 4 new and i'm
portant trade between Richmond and the West
has been opened over our line via Strasburg
and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which
has amounted during the year to nearly fifteen
thousand tons. The returns show small de-
crease in local tonnage as compared with last
year to be accounted for by short crops and un-
favorable seasons for the producing interests of
the country tributary to the line Of road. The
company has to rely for much its local tonnage
upon agricultural productions, and would have
its material prosperity greatly promoted by the
opening up and development Of mineral re-
sources and establishment of manufactures
along its line of road, which would afford con-
slant and regular transportation during the
year. The hope is INDUCED that the attention
of capitalists will be attracted to the deposits
OF iron, copper, chaolin, lime, marble, red sand
stone, and soap stone, which are to be met with
at various localities and will in time doubtless
be proftably utilized. Besides the mineral
values referred to ample water power is afford
ed BY the many streams which the road crosses,
and abundant supplies Of valuable timber can
be secured at convenient points for transporta-
ton. TO foster and encourage the develop
ment Of these local resources of wealth and
thereby increase the value of its business will
be wise policy on part of the company and at
tract the best efforts of its present manage
ment While the transportation Of the through

TRAScE-The situation in France, as re-
ported by the cable dispatches yesterday after
noon, seems unfavorable to the Republic. The
difficulty between President Theirs and the Ma
;iona Assembly howevers likely to find solution
in the appointment ola committee of thirty-fve
by the Assembly, who will propose certain
constitutional reforms, to which the President
will assent. On what was considered test
question in the Assembly the Government
party had $50 votes to 322 for the opposition.
T:iis was considered triumph for Theirs.
