BOSTON AND MAINE RAILROAD.

The annual report OF the officers of the
Boston and Maine Railroad Company. for the
year ending Sept 80. 1878, has appeared.
The report states that the gross receipts for
the year ending Sept. 30th, 1873, were S2,-
300,093, and the operating expenses were
81, 727 S25, making the net earnings ST., 26S.
Compared with the previous year, there was
an increase in net income of SGs, l52. The
expenses last year were large, owing to the
severity of the winter, which was the most
severe known for years.
The Miller platform has been applied to
most of the cars, and the air brake to many
of the cars and engines. These Improvements
have cost large sum of money.
The passenger and freight business as COM
pared with that of the year previous shows a
net gain of So, Cos passengers and 81 ,2S2 tons
of freight.
During the year there has been added to
the equipment Is new passenger cars includ-
| ing three parlor cars; long baggage car,
besides III freight cars; long freight bag
gage car, and l snow pillow. Also two first
class passenger and four first class switching
engines. The road has now l20 passenger
cars, including three parlor cars, 400 freight
cars anu ~ locomotives.
The road bed and superstructure has been
kept in good condition, and at the present
time is believed to be equal to the best New
England. A new draw has been constructed
in the bridge over Miller's river, and the
bridge over Charles river has been widened.
A new passenger house has been built at
Reading, and others are to be built at Dover
and Bradford.
Passenger and freight trains are running
regularly on the extension to Portland, which
was completed last December.
The connection which was sought with the
Maine Central road at Portland has not yet
been obtained. Smiths wharf in Portland
has been bought at an expense of $500, 900.
This property is valuable for purposes of the
road, and the freight receipts have increased
largely from this connection.
For the year ending September 80. 1878,
there was expended on account of the extern
sion in Maine, $l,S0l, 293,2S, making the
whole amount thus far expended for that
purpose, 80, 94l, 322,76. A very large portion
of this sum has been spent for land For I'M
provements in Mystic river exclusive of the
original purchase of land there been ex-
pended SCI, .33. The whole expenditure
for the improvement between North Andover
and Bradford has been S205, 504 Ga. of which
$l3, 406,95 was expended during the past
year.

BUSINESS IMPROVING.

Business continues to improve steadily.
Cuban affairs have for several days occupied
public attention, SO that the panic has been
allowed to take care of itself. Last week
closed in very satisfactory and promising
manner SO far as the markets and monetary
matters were concerned. Gold fuctuated
under the news from Cuba, but money was
easier and business brisker. This week the
situation opens favorably. The New York
Dry Goods Reporter says:
A decidedly improved tone in the condition
Of affairs has been the chief feature of the
week, and though the banks have largely in
creased their reserve funds, mercantile paper
passed with more confidence and at lower
rates; and while money has been exceed
ingly plenty on the street for uudoubted col
laterals at very low rates, there is still strong
current of distrust and want of confidence
manifested by very many, that is difficult
to overcome except by slow approaches, but
it is being removed in that wise. In the mar
ket for dry goods there has been an improved
feeling developed in the minds OF buyers. and
| though some agents have been distribut ing
small quantities, the selections in these in
stances have been for the actual wants of the
| Western and other markets, which appear to
be somewhat more active than our City job
| bers.
With the commission houses, and those in
| woolens particularly, we hear that collections
are coming in to really surprising degree,
| and even better than were ever known when
money was worth over II per cent per annum
while with all the same satisfaction is ex-
pressed, though not in such strong terms
This promptness on the part of jobbers shows
that while liquidation has been going on the
amount of Indebtedness incurred has been
almost nothing, as all seem to have adopted
the same policy, viz, that of running down
the amount of stock without increasing the
obligations In fact, the reduced stocks with
our jobbers and, as we learn, with those of
every point, were never so low as at the pres
ent, yet are being still reduced by the clos
! ing out job sales that are being made every
| day. Stocks are increased only in goods of
| a staple character, and then in the smallest
quantity.
The Chicago Tribune of the l3;h inst.
says
The improved feeling in monetary affairs
seems to be general all over the country. In
this city there was a much more cheerful
tone in business. Money is very tight yet,
but there is certainly more offered in the
open market than a week ago, though there
is none to be had on mortgages yet. En-
change continues extremely scarce, and the
banks are still shipping currency to New
York. During the panic the country banks
drew so much currency to the country that
there will probably be less than the usua
movement of currency in that direction tC
pay for hogs this winter.

The following SPECIAL from Washington
assures us it is all right with Senator
Mitchell formerly Ripple.
WAsHINeToN. June 25.-The friends of
Senator Mitchell here are perfectly salts
fed with his explanation of the charges
made against him, growing cut of his
leaving Pennsylvania. There Is some
curiosity among them. however, to learn
how he will disprove the charge of having
rnarriedln Oregon, in 1862, when he did
not get a divorce from his first wife, who
was living in Pennsylvania, until 1867
i've yeaTS later.
