cross ties four inches deep, and held by
two wedges down In the notch on the
outside Of the rail. The ties are eight
inches thick aud laid twenty inches apart.
The cars have four wheels, and some Of
the engines weigh thirty tons. In frosty
weather the driving wheels have less Rd.
hesiOn than on metal rails, but no con-
siderable difficulty Is experienced from
this cause, The rails will last from two
to four years, according to the quality Of
the timber and the amount OF the traffic.
The cost OF such road Is from $4,000 to
$1,000 per mile,

SMALL Pox.-Dr. Jepson, the new
Health Officer, qualified last evening and
entered on the discharge of his duties.
DR.. Reeves, the old health officer, sent in
his concluding report. He states that
there are ut this time, as reported to him
by the attending pbysicians, just five
cases of smallpox in the city, and they Of
a mild form. They are located as fol-
lows: Two on Zane street, first house
west Of the Fourth Ward public school; /;
one opposite the Gas Works; one on the
corner Of Cedar Alley and Seventh street
all in East Wheeling; and one on the
corner orBuckeye Alley and West street,
North Wheeling.
We mention this as an authentic con-
tradlction Of untounded or exaggerated
reports circulated in the country to the
effect that there is great deal Of small
pox in this city. We are informed by the
retiring Health Officer that at no time
since the introduction Of the disease here
in June, 1871, has there been
greater number Of cases than nine
aL one time. In view OF the way
nearly all OF the cities Of the country have
been scouged with smallpox since that
time, notably those with which we had
constant and intimate communication, the
exemption from the disease enjoyed by
this city has been literally remarkable.
1t has been due, VIC believe to the TACT
that the Health Authorities werc armed
with ample powers to stamp out the dig
ease wherever It made its appearance be-
fore It could have time to spread, and ex'
ercised those powers with commendable
energy. But there ought to be no relax
alton Of the vigilance which has thus far
purchased this exemption. Cases ot
smallpox are liable TO be brought
here by any train or boat. Baltimore
and Washington are full OF 1t, there
being now fifteen hundred regis
tered cases in Baltimore, We trust
Health Officer Jcpson will be wide awake
and use the powers with which he is
armed to keep the disease confined to the
uarrowest possible limits. Like q fire, 1t
Is easy enough managed ir we look to
the beginnings. I[itis allowed 10 get q
start, 1t may spread beyond control, as it
has done in Boston and Baltimore, and as
1t did last year in Pittsburgh, Philadel.
phla, and many others cities, where pro-
cautouary measures were neglected till
It was too late.
