MARROW GAUGE RAILRoAD.-We have
noted several chcaply. built local railways. but
the Pennsboro g. Hsrrisvlte, in West Virginia,
(3.fcct gauge, is about the cheapest yet. inc
president writes us that the whole cost OF the y
miles Of road, Including locomotive, passen'
ger ear, and two gondoia cars, was $5o'00V,o
which ia an average Of So SS35S per mile. Ihe
capital stock is $4,000, and the property Is
mortgaeea for the iron, etc, tor $i2'Ooo' iuu.
ming ten years, at s per cent. The earnings
average from $500 to $500 per month; the OK
pepses about $3.50. At this rate the net earn
ines arc from $40 TO $40 per month, or say,
from $500 to $4,000 per year. The lowest
figure would pay handsome interest on the
entire cost of the property, which is what very
few railways in this or any ether country 90
nowadays. We would like very much TO have
the exact figures for au entire years operation
One other noteworthy feature besides the re-
markably small cost Of the road is suggested 10
this item: mo paid officers on this road, but
two freight agents, who are paid 500 per an
nun cach.' Here is something for other com.
panies to read and consider. When they get
The aggregate pay Of their officers and agents
down to 5000 per yeary they will begin to make
money.-Rdihoay Age.

A GENTLEMAN ON HIS WAY HOME Is
wAYLAID AND BsATEN.
Last evening gentleman whose
name issuppressed oy request, was o.
way home from his place of business,
when he was waylaid at the corner of
Fifth and Poplar streets, by four
cowardly ruffians, who committed a
violent assault upon him. . Z
The assault was commenced by man
who suddenly sprang in front of him and
dealt him terrible blow over the eye,
and from the frightful cut received it is
thought the assailant was provided with
pair of brass knuckles.
No sooner had the coward struck him
in the face, than he received kick in
the back, and two more vioJent blows
on the side of the neck. For the NOM
ent he WAS stunned but suddenly rallying
he turned upon the towards, and kept
them at bay, and at the same time deal
ing them so me very telling blows. See
ing that they had found their match, and
after endeavoring to throw him the ruff
fans turned and fled.
The gentleman was very badly beaten
during the melee, having such great odds
to contend with, but he considers himself
very fortunate in getting off SO easily. At
the time of the occurrence it was very dark,
though only 8 O'Clock, and no one was pass
ing along the streets. He did not recognize
any the assailants, and cannot, unfortunate
ly Therefore secure their arrest, AZ.
