BUT THREE DAYS MARRLED.

"My dearest" said Fred, as we neared
a little wayside station, "what do you
say TO some lunch I can step out here
and get anything you fancy. 1t may
seem dreadful thing for a bridegroom
to confess, but I begin to feel quite
sharp after our early dinner. II You
don't mind my leaving you for five min
ates-"
I signifed that an absence of that
duration might be supported, and Fred
started for the refreshmept room.
We had been married just three days.
and the glamor of the honeymoon was
upon everything-the atmosphere was
rarifed beyond that breathed by every
day mortals-the earth glorifed with a
new beauty-the heavenswith new light,
We ate not bread and. beefsteak, but
some ambrosial dish untasted before,
and DIR nix golden nectar, 'etherialized
from hot coffee pots.
watched Fred from the car window
Until he disappeared in the refreshment
room. What a splendid fellow he was
Such eyes-such mind-such teeth
such heart-such a general combina-
ton of perfections! How charming
how delightful how altogether impress
sible it was to belong to him forever,
never to be separated more when whiz
.clang! Horrors! The train was of,
with Fred still discussing boned turkey
in the eating saloon, and his faithful
wife hopelessiy quiescent in the ladies

miles an hour those whom law and gos.

THE REPLIES TO Mr.. wAsHBURSE's EXPOSURES.
Mr. washbume having conciuded, Mr.. Price,
Of Iowa. member Of the Special COMMITTEES.
obtained the floor in reply. Mr.. Price is the
father-in-law Of Mr.. Dillon, the President OF
the Credit Mobilier, and afterward Govern
ment Director. Therefore, Iowa had Gov
ernnent Directors, Wilson and Price, both in
the interest of the Pacific road. Mr.. Price felt
called upon to attempt to answer some Of the
objections advanced by Mr.. Washburne, and
ssid the Special Committee had spent SIX
months in getting up the smendments. he
said, according to the gentleman from Illinois,
the amendments were both weak and wicked.
He had overheard conversation between
some members who said il the matters Mr..
Wsshburne charges were true, the bill ought
not to pass /; and they said that by any gentle
man coming into the House and taking sound
for sense, and hearing the denunciatioiB OF
the gentleman from Illinois, the committee
might be thought guilty Of 8 purpose to rob
the Treasury and oyerturn the Government.
Mr.. Van Yalkenberg interjected some remarks
into the speech Of Mr.. Price in contradiction
of some OF Mr. Washburne's statements.
After Mr.. Price had concluded, Mr.. Stevens
took the floor in reply to Mr.. Washburne.
HOW AND BY WHOM THE BILL WAS PASSED.
After Mr.. Stevens concluded his speech he
moved the previous question on his amend
mants, and Mr.. Washbnrne gave notice to the
House that he would at the proper time move
10 postpone the consideration Of the bill till
the next session. NJ. Holman said 1t was now
10 O'Clock and he did not want TO vote whom
the House was so thin, and he moved an ID
iournment. Mr.. Holman said the House was
full enough, and that the matter might - we'll
be disposed Of then sss ct any other time. The
House refused to adjourn, and refused to give
the yeas and nays. NJ. Holman then demanled
the yeas -snd nsys on the sdopting Of his
amendment, compelling the road to carry the
property snd troops Of the United Ststefree
Of ciarRa snd the House ordered them by
one more vote than the requisite number.
This was The first check, and caused great dis
content But the amendment was promptly
voted down, the votes being 50 for and 50
against Holman, 'Washburne Of Illinois,
Randall of Pennsylvania, the two Aliens OF
Illineis, Pike, Thsyer, Baldwin Norton, Of
Michigan, and Baldwin Of Massachusetts, and
others voted IN the Affirmative. Allen, Bout
well, Brooks, Dawes, Garfield, Perham, Ece
10 Massachusetts,, Ganson, Schenck, Stevens,
Windom, DonneIly and others, voted in The
negative After the vote, the House adtouned.
| The next day, june %, the bill came up - the
regular order. Several members upoke IN
favor Of the bill, and Wilson Of Iowa iparafted
. proposition granting several millions OF
| acres Of public lands to railroad compsniss N

Startling Figures.

EFrom reliable and trustworthy data
the following astounding figures are
collected During the last five years
,wenty-cight thousand miles of rail-
road have been built in the United
States. In the ten wears previous
the total was fifteen thousands. thus
showing that The construction OF
railroads has Quadrur!cd during the
last decade. 1t is probable that there
arc now ten thousand miles i'll course
of building. Estimating the cost OF
construction at forty thousand dollars
per mile, the total expended in this
direction will show the enormous
outlay of $500, O00. 600. To this
must be added The cost of roads now
constructing, $500. 900 GOO. This
amount of capital is enough to fairly
; s,a"gcr belief. 1t stands for heavy
debt rs well as for gigantic enterprise.
In old established Eastern roads,
trunk lines, with their enormous
through Irci"hts and travel, there is
nothing to irighten one in the figures,
, bntin the sDarscl: settled regions OF
our western country. it is different.
| Here the mania for railroad building
has been: overdonc. In ltlic state o;
Iowa for instance. there is not q rail
| road that is''earning expenses. For
this. in q great measure. the railroad
people have themselves to blame.
Their avaricc has ove~rreacllcd itself.
J They ground the farmers down with
oppressive freight charges. and unjust
determinations. i'll order to force
dividends, until the farmers took the
| matter into their own hands and
struck forjusticc, right and freedom.
With united celebrity, the agr:cu!tu-
+; list of the state have banded toTctll-
or = II man TO resist cxtortiom. and
IN, l., suit is the railroads have been
con, vel ed to take in sail. In tic end
