STEAM H0RsE CARS.

We shall all be glad when the direc-
tors of our horse railroad company sub
stitute steam for their much abused
horses. We understand that they are
running steam cars between Newark and
Orange, on one of the roads, and that
the transit is not only much quicker,
but also far pleasanter. We should like
to see the experiment tried, for we are
tired of seeing fine horses used up on
cobble-stone pavements A gentleman
who has given the subject much atten-
ton, says that he can run the steam cars
nearly twice as fast, as horses can pull
them, and yet save half the present ex-
pense of running. There is no danger
with the steam cars of recent invention,
and no likelihood of frightening horses
along the highways. If this is true,
and we believe it is the case at Orange,
we ask our railroad companies to try it.
If they can save half the present cost of
running the cars, perhaps they will re-
duce the fare to five cents-instead of
six, as at present. At all events five
cents is enough on our roads, and we
hope some charge will speedily be made.

APPLES, just now, are nearly as dear
as "doctor stuff''-which is one of the
most expensive luxuries INDUCED in by
civilized communities. Many farmers
sit up o'nights to watch their orchards,
and the less deyout protest that they
cannot afford to go up to the sanctuary
on Sunday, because experience has
taught them that naughty boys, and I'M
principled men, will steal their pippins
in their absence. To say nothing about
the Nervousness of stealing fruit, it GER
tainly is hard ON heavily taxed agricul-
turists that the product of their favorite
trees is to be gathered by those who are
too lazy to cultivate fruit too supply
their own wants. This business OF
rifing orchards and gardens is too extern
sively practiced in this locality to be
endured longer. The industrious are
entitled to the fruit of their labor, and
reckless persons, who pluck what they
have not grown, should be taught the
difference between mine and thine.
These apple thieves need to be taken in
hand promptly, and made to pay hand
somely for the produce stolen. If they
are not sharply dealt with, one of these
days they may be tempted to steal their
neighbors' horses, or rob one of our
banking institutions.

THE EXCUKSIONISTs.

Had the weather been pleasant yes
terday, our citizens would have wit
messed fine parade of Companies A
and G, of the Third regiment. AS it
was, the commands were compelled to
remain within doors most of the day
and disappointed in not being able to
contest for the many very elegant prizes
contributed by admiring friends.
At noon the companies paraded
through the principal streets of the
First and Second wards, tendering a
marching salute to Colonel Morrell at
his residence on the Crescent.
At two o'clock the visitors were BAN
quoted at Arnold's Hall-speeches be-
ing made by Colonies Morrell and
Drake, Captains Hill and Crosbie,
Quartermaster Coyne, Lieutenant Lee,
Band-master Force, Alderman Potter
and others.
AT four o'clock Company G was
escorted to the wharf, and amid the
cheers of the assembled multitude, and
salvos from the Morrell battery, they
embarked on the steamer Mattawan,
which speedily left for home.
Company A will have their target
practice on Thursday afternoon.
Lieutenant Lee, on behalf of Com
pany G, in a neat speech, presented to
Captain Crosbie, flor his company an
elegant gold medal, which will be shot

How some people contrive to enjoy
refreshing sleep when they are well
aware that their sidewalk is dangerous
ly uneven, is one of those problems we
cannot comprehend. In their evening
devotions some of these property owners
doubtless pray for the safety of all
travellers by land and water, and yet
they allow stumbling blocks to remain
directly in front of their dwellings,.
Now while we have respect for those
who pray for the travellers safety,
we trust that they viii not think us i'm
pertinent in advising them to remove
all their traps from the prthway of Pc
destrians. On some of our most
thronged sidewalks, it is not an uncom-
mon thing to see fagstones with their
edges several inches above the grade.
These rough places should be made
smooth forthwith.
