Numerous baby carriages, In charge Of
negro girls, are pulled along the sidewalks
every afternoon, and oftentimes in such a
careless way as TO greatly endanger the lives
of the infantile sojourners within them.
One of these little carriages was yesterday
completely demolished by contact With .
rolling hogshead of sugar on Market street,
and the life of precious baby was only
saved by the little child being promptly
jerked from the vehicle by gentleman who
happened 10 be passing at the time. An
other was run over by a wood wagon on a
Cherry street crossing, and literally torn to
atoms. Fortunately, the baby had been
taken by its nurse out of the carriage a
moment before the occurrence. If mothers
knew the dangers to which their precious
darlings are in this way exposed, they
woald not allow their babies to be carried
out Of sight by careless nurses.

Judging from remarks and movements
made within the past few days by certain
citizens, some Of whom are gentlemen of
unquestioned veracity, it may be safely as
sumed that an election for county officer
will be among the events of public interest
shortly to transpire-probably before the
expiration of two more days. To speak
still more distinctly of the matter, it is very
generally whispered around by knowing
parties that an election of the character in
dicated viii be held next Thursday, which
will be here tomorrow. If this be true, it
may be safely conjectured that the UNION
AND AMERICAN of Friday morning viii tell
fully of results.

MEMPHIS AND RALEIGH RAtLRoAD.
Indications are that this road win be com
pleted before Christmas. G. FL. Crane, of
st. Louis, has submitted proposition to
the directors, agreeing TO finish the road in
sixty days. The proposition is made by
the above-named gentleman in behalf of
Crane 81 Co.. ssDa sefsEF
GREENEVIIL.E AND PAINT ROCK RAIL
ROAD.
This road, which has created some ex-
element and formerly met some opposition,
will soon be put through. The road is to
be q narrow gauge and work has been COM
menced in several places. The grading of
the first six miles from GreeneVille to The
river is under Msjor Noll, the centrac or,
who is progressing rapidly with the work.
Mr.. Graf is ready to commence the stone
masonry for the bridge piers over the river,
Tais road viii be of much benefit to Green
vile and being narrow gauge has every
possible guarantee of being self-sustaining.
In choosing the narrow gauge GTeeneVilie
has adopted what short, yet satisfactory
experience has shown to be the best aud
certainly most independent system for 10
cal railway. The Missouri Democrat in
speaking OF the Denver and Rio Grands
Narrow Gauge, pronounces favorably as TO
the system. "rhe cars,' it says, FUSED are
perfect little palaces, and fally as comtor =
able as the more cumbersome coaches ofthe
broad gauge roads. The sils are only tweI :
ty-four inches above the rail, making the
centre of gravity very low; hence the cars
ride exceedingly steady and with less lateral
or oseillating motion than is usually OBJ
serVable upon the broad gauge. The seats
are arranged double on one side aud single
on the other, one half the length of the car
having the double seats on the right, and
the other half Oh the left, SO as to distribute
the weight equally.
The single seats are nineteen inches wide,
or long; the double thirty.six inches; the
aisle seventeen inches. Ii found advisable
there can be no serious OH 4ction TO increas-
ing the width of the Car to eight. feet,
making the single seat twenty-five inches,
the double seat Ihirty-nine inches, and the
aisle twenty four inches.
