named Sam Flynn. who traded In horses
and generally contrived to own . speedy
mag or two. which he used for racing
purposes whenever he could pick mp Q
''soit match" during his travels. The
best OF his fysrs vas . coal black
stallion named Dusky Pete. who was
almost . thoroughbred, and able to 60 in
the best Of company. Flynn was soous-
toned TO saddle Pete whom approaching
q town and ride him into Il to give the
impression that the animal was merely
go likely hoss." and not . Eyer. One
day he came 10 . town whore . country
race meeting was being held. and he
entered Pete among the contestants.
Tho people OF the town. not knowing
anything OF his ~sntscsdsnts, and, not
bang ovsr impressed BY his appearance,
backed two or three local favorites
heavily sgainst him. Flynn moved
quietly among the crowd, and took all
the bets offered against his nag. Just
- the "aysn" we're bsins saddlsd for
the race old Judge MoMinamss, who
VA the turf oracle Of that part Of the
State. arrived on the course. and was

eye over The ruek, the Judge instantly
recognized Pete. and he said "Gsntls.
men, there's dark horse in this race
that viii make some Of you smell hill

II is proposed to build q railroad from
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Lynchburg,
Virginia. The general route indicated
passes through Reckbridge, Bath and
Highland counties. in Virginia, and Poca'
hontas, and then down the Tygart's Val
ley, and through Randolph, Barbour, Tay-
lor, Marion and Monongalia counties, in
West Virginia; or, II the Cheat river route
be adopted, through Pendleton, Randolph,
Tucker, Preston and Monongalia counties
in West Virginia. From the line between
West Virginia and Pennsylvania it would
pass down the valley OF the Monopgahela
TO Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh and Allegheny
City on the one side are the
centres OF vast manufacturing inter.
ests, and OF extensive railway sys.
TENS. On the other, Lynchburgh is the
KEY TO the Virginia railway systems, and
the gateway 10 the Southern Atlantic
States, and commands the rich Bessemer
iron.ore field OF the Piedmont and Blue
Ridge sections, OF Virginia;and Richmond,
the seat Of valuable industries and OF a
prosperous and growing commerce, and
Norfolk, with It's fine harbor, afford near,
safe, aud desirable outletsto Europe. The
project will represented in practical shape
to the committees in a short time. 1t Twill
give Pittsburgh the shortest, cheapest and
best outlet to the markets OF Southern At.
lantic States. 1t will be 10 Pittsburgh q
more valuable and desirable artery OF COM
merce and wealth than the Cincinnati
Southern could eyer become to that city,
and at an outlay estimated at less than
half the cost Of the Cincinnati Southern.

The Baltimore l. Ohio is now running
through trains from New York TO C1ncin.
natl. Chicago and St. Louis via the Bound
Brook route to Philadelphia. It has put
on three daily trains, leaving New York at
8 A. M, Z and 1880 p. n. The Z o'clock
train reaches Cincinnati, ISL miles, at s P.
NJ. the next day, makingth actual time Of
the run 25l hours, which makes the speed
80 9 miles per hour. The distance by this
route Is nearly the same as by the Penn.
~sylyanis, by which 1t is 757 miles, and II
the Baltimore & Ohio trains did not go by
the way OF Washington the difference
would be but 10 instead Of "a miles. The
Baltimore 4 Ohio train leaves New York
an hour later than the Pennsylvania
train and reaches Cincinnati at
the same time. This train reaches
Chicago, 1,04l miles, at 7 A. NJ. OF the sec
ond day-a run OF 81 hours, and an aver.
age speed Of 2S milea an hour. The same
time Is taken by the two evening trains Of
the Pennsylvania railroad, and substan-
italy the same by the other routes. The
distance, however, is but OLE miles by the
Pennsylvania, and its average speed but
94.7 miles per hour. This Is not the fast
train.l To St. Louis, the distance by the
Baltimore & Ohio is 1,l92 miles, by the
Pennsylvania LOGS. The I o'clock train Of
the first takes 50 hours to make the run,
the Pennsylvania $50 P. N. train makes
$50 hours. Substantially the same
time Is made by the Baltimore & Ohio as
BY the other roads, and 10 Cincinnati and
ST, Louis its line is nearly as short as the
Bennsylvania'sa sand shorter than any other.
Heretofore passengers for the Baltimore
& Ohio at New York have had to change
cars at Baltimore for Washington.
