READING ON RAILWAY TRAINS. The com.
mon practice of reading in railway cars cannot
be too strongly condemned. Those who prac,,
tice it are usually conscious Of weight and
WEAKNESS of the eyes not customary in other
circumstances. Medical authorty-and mo-
ment's reflection sustains the assertion-says
that the exact distance between the eyes and
the paper or book cannot be maintained j.. the
tons keeps the eyes in a continuous attempt to
adjust the focal distance properly, and this pro,
duces fatigue and other permanent injury
There is also continual change in the degree
of light as the troin rushes through cuts, woods
over upon fields and in the shadows Of hills
and buildings. 1t is easy to see that there is
in rail-car reading strain upon the eye such
as is scarcely possible in any other way.

THE New RAILROAD RoUTE-It is stated
that the Orange and Alexandria Railroad Com.
pany tavors the establishment of the proposed
road from the corner of Sixth and G. streets,
across the Eastern branch, and thence on the
east side of the Potomac to Alexandria, W here
a bridge for crossing is to be constructed. This
done, the Orange and Alexandria Railroad Com
papy will have no occasion for a connecting
road in this city by tunncling Capitol Hill.
It is stated that by this road bituminous coal
will reach tide water over Mr.. CARROTS Metro
politan railroad, by much shorter route than
any other, and that great coal shipping point
will grow up at Alexandra. = Washington Put

Congress for the latter that it is not doubted
the adjournment will be postponed.

SPARK CATCHER. The resolution introduced
in the City Council compelling all manutac-
turers to attach a spark catcher to their chin
uies, is very proper one, and it is sup isng,
that no one ever thought of Introducing it be-
fore the late fire on the Strand. The resolution
preventing every manufacturer from building
chimney less than ~ feet high, appears to put
restriction on small manufacturers, who
ought to be encouraged, 10 order to give those.
who want to help us build up our city to what
it should be- chance to commence 10 small
way, and enlarge as they see their way through.
If this last resolution is added so as to make it
more safe on account of sparks, it is great
mistake, as the extra height Of the chimney
would increase the draft and force the sparks
through spark catcher a point on which all
our practical engineers agree, and the benefits
arising from the enactment Of the first resolu
ton would be more than counteracted by the
latter The proper plan to follow would be to
appoint one of our machinlsts, carrying on busl-
ness here, as Inspector of spark catchers, his
charge to the manufacturers to be % cts tor
inspecting every spark catcher once every
3 months, and to make it his duty to inform
on every one who negects giving proper care
to the spark catcher. If the raising OF chlmnles
is int ended to avoid the smoke, which occa-
sionally annoys the neighbors Of some of our
manufacturing establishments, the raising OF
the chimnies FIVE feet higher may create great
Inconvenience and heavy expense to some of
the manufacturers. Some chimnies would
have to be torn down to be built up stronger to
stand the extra height, and their location
changed for want Of room, where they are now,
costing several hundred dollars for this slight
raising of the chimnies, but it will not remedy
the annoyance to the neighbors on account Of
smoke, as Southeast wind in damp weather
will drive the smoke down if the chimney is
even 20 feet high. 1t has been objected to,
that some four manufacturers burn shavings
and other light fuel, but if they burn coal al
together, the smoke will leave darker marks
behind it than any other fuel Would it not
be advisable if our City Council would get the
different views of our few manufacturers and
machiuests, and judge by their experience, in
what way the existing evils can be remedied so
as to do JUSTICE TO ALL.

EARLY FRUITS AND VEGETABLES The
demand for early fruits and vegetables has of
late years been immense, and far in excess OF
hills into rich gardens and has brought the
products Of California and the West Indies to
our doors From Bermuda come our early
tomatoes, onions and potatoes; from California
our winter peas and grapes. Then in the open
ing spring Florida sends her fruits, and then
Savannah, and as the winter gradually recedes,
Wilmington, and still later, the warmer rays OF
the sun creeping slowly up the coast, Norfolk
ships her first scarce and high priced vegetables,
and quickly thereafter the Eastern Shore Of
Maryland and Virginia. Norfolk and Mary
land furnish the largest amount of Strawberries.
