THE ROAD TO REHOBOTH.
Who IL Going 10 Build It-CapturinE
the Travel ~ the Summer Resorts.

The Smyrna 7imes,in its last issue, says
people are not sure that the p, W. d d.
Railroad Company intend to build rail
road to Rehoboth as they cannot sec why
it wants 20 put road through a section
that cannot properly support the road 1t
already has. But the Times says it seems
to be settled that if the p, W. Il B. does
not do it, it. will compel the junction h
Breakwater to do it. It says road is to
be constructed at once to that point by the
last named corporation, and has even seen
it stated that the work is to be accom-
piished within the next sixty days. The
Times concludes its article as follows:
1t may be that that was all that the p,
W. & b. really meant to accomplish by its
recent survey from Dover to the point
named II seems determined to have q
sumner resort for feeder, as are most of
the transportation lines now days. 1t has
been RAINING to Ocean City now for two
seasons, but the route is long, tortuous,
dusty one and besides it has to divide up
its revenues with two other companies, the
East IN Shore railroad and tho Wicomico
& poaomoke railroad. II could reach
Eehoboth in half the time it takes to run
to Ocean City, and offer mnch better in.
ducements in the way of cheap fare aud
general attractiveness, but the unfinished
link between Lewes aud the Beach defeated
any scheme looking to the point in
question.
This summer resort travel is nm i'm
portant feature to the transportation lines
and TO utilize it is no mean consideration
The down river steamers are demonstrating
how desirable it is to catch it. For tire,
or four years the steamboat company tina,
runs the Ariel and other down-river boat
have monopolized two summer resorts OF
our shores, and by a judicious system O
low fares have run a successful business
Since that company started, the corporatio,
that runs another steamer, the Warner
have built tiue hotel opposite Bomba,
Hook, at q cost of SIG, 900, to draw shar'
from the same profitable source. And it i
rumored that parties have made overture
for Fraland, on our own shore, with viev
Of establishing fine resort there in tn
interest of some steamer running out O

PLUNGING OYER A BRIDGE,
Nearly seventy People Injured q
the New Jersey Central Road.

The train leaving Jersey City at 7.45,
q. M, Thursday last, on the Central railroad
Of New Jersey, consisting Of an engine,
baggage car, and four passenger cars, met
with serious accident at Oceanport
bridge. Through some cause unknown
the engine jumped the track, and, running
along the ties, plunged into the bank. the
severe concussion throwing the baggage
and three passenger cars over the side Of
the bridge into the water, which was about
three feet deep. No lives were lost,
though several persons were seriously
injured, some of whom were taken to
Long Branch, where they were attended
to.
The total number of injured is between
sixty and seventy. The only way the
bridge-tender can account for the accident
is that some boys fishing on the bridge
must have tempered with the switch.
After the accident the bridge was found to
be slightly misplaced, the ends of the draw
and main road tracks not being coincident,
though they were perfectly 20 before tbs
! train touched ths bridge.

During the heavy rain of Monday even
ing part Of the abutment of the Shipley
run culvert, on Sixth street, between
Madison and Monroe, was torn down by
the water rushing down Sixth street from
the overfowed cutters. The culvert has
been widened and an addition built to the
old wall. 1t was the latter that was torn
down, together with portion of the new
wall. The men who are at work straight
ening and widening the culvert imme-
diately went to work yesterday to repair
the damage.

The utter absurdity of the pretence that
the silver dollar was demonetized by an
act surreptitiously got through Congress
is readily seen when We remember that for
twenty years before that act passed the
silver dollar had ceased to be generally
used and that it was absolutely out of cir
culation at the time the act was passed.
Congress simply, and wisely, concluded to
no longer consider as coin of the realm q
piece of money which had of itself dis.
appeared from among coins in use.

We either want larger army or better
generals in the Northwest to cope with
the Indians there. This particular Indian
war, however, was brought about by long
continued wrong done to the Indians by
their white neighbors, winked Mt by the
national government. As a patton We de-
serve whatever shame and sorrow ii may
bring us, though it is certainly hard that
these poor soldiers should make vicari-
Gus sacrifice for our sins.

Mr.. William Green, of Middletown, in
letter accidentally mislaid for time,
wishes us to correct phrase in his letter
concerning the recent appeal of his
committee to the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, so that it shall read reductio est
a6surdnm instead of rtducti0 ad absurdum.
He thinks that though the Latin is not so
good, the point is better. That eat the
way Mr.. Green wrote it first.

The recklessness of greed is well illus
trated by tue practice of overlooking
peach cars which the Delaware railroad is
striving so earnestly to break up.
The man who loads SO great n
weight on q car as to endanger
its safety, not only risks the loss
of his own fruit, but the loss of whole
train of other peoples fruit, and poAsi-
BILE stoppage Of travel, which may cause
serious losses to all growers. Besides all
this he endangers the lives of
the railroad men. Yet the utmost
watchfulness can rarely prevent
cars containing over twenty andtwenty-five
thousand pounds from slipping through
When this trick is supported by false
invoice incorrectly stating the amount OF
fruit shipped by that car, it becomes {
criminal offence and it will, doubtless, gel
some one into serious trouble if it j,
kept up.

Suppose the Christians in Turkey were
able to throw off the Turkish yoke and
form government of their
own, would they be bound to pay the
debts contracted by the Turks to pay
armies and officials for expressing them
If this question cannot be answered in the
affirmative, then we do not think that the
psopla of the States lately under carpet
bag rule can beseverely blamed for refusing
to pay SO much of the debts contracted by
the carpet-bag governments as was merely
used to support those plunderers, or as wa'
stolen by them. Where a high sense o.
honor prevails, we think there will be {
disposition to acknowledge all obligation,
given for things which the Stat,
still holds, but as the people
of those States really wer'
governed for years by mel
almost as foreign to them as the Turk
were to the Bulgarians or the Greeks, tiv'
centuries ago, We do not wonder tina
they do not feel responsible financially, an.
more than they feel responsible morally
for the acts of those so-called govern
ments 1t is misnomer to call the re
fusal to acknowledge such responsibility.
reputation, as that term has definit
meaning in such matters, and is applicabl
only to the action of State in repudi
ating and refusing to pay debts that it con
tracted with its peoples assent when thos
people were responsible for its govern
ment,
