West ches eT Lncal News;
The bulldog of q new depot Con pa
psr) by The p ". & B R. R. Company
on South High street, this borough, has
been oou pl.Gvd--or IN other woIus Tue
nrc,ect Tor this improvement to euI
boroush has been, as we're Mr.. Look
woods resolutions in the Republican
cnur4v maatirp IN Tuesday last, inde'
fnitely postponed.
This action was reached on Wednes.
Say. at which time second survey Of
the proposed extension Of the line TO
High street was made and by which 1t
wa, asoer .Alnsu IuaI The grade would
be M. less than % feet in the about
1000 feet Of new line, and this wai
thought by the officials to be both i'm
practicable and unsafe, hence the aban
donmept OF the project.
The fact of such an extension being
required to cross Walnut and Matlack
streets at grade, rendered the project
impracticable and there being no meant
at hand by which this obstacle could
be overcome, the company were very
reluctantly obliged to abandon theil
cherished plans Of locating handsome
depot ed;fice in more central portion
of the town. The management als'
state that with a grade Of 2S feet NJ
train would be safe at any time whil'
in West Chester. A car being detached
would speed down such plane will
wonderful velocity, and damage to LII
and property would sooner or later b
the result.
The cost for the necessary properties
and right Of way for this improvement
had already been negotiated for-a
least to such an extent that the figures
as they applied to the several pending
purchases were accepted by the com
pany, and but for this obstructing fea
ture Of too high . grade, the work O.
making the improvement would nave
been commenced in few days. :.
As the matter now stands the ole
depot will be made to assume new and
elaborate attractions, and for the time
the project OF new depot in . new 10
cation will most likely lay quiet until
westward the course of line shall
take its way, when the matter will BIZ
revived and may be depot OF mann
moth proportions will tower up on the
Pratt Roberts lot, on South High street
in close proximity to the State Norma
School, as the result OF this change
and few years patient waiting.

THE PEARSON LRvEE.

EDS. RECORD UNION In the issue of your
journal of Friday last noticed Courtland
telegram in regard to the Pearson levee,
which seems liable to some misinterpretation,
and which is in my opinion urgently III need
of correction. Your informant says that
I" the Pearson levee is eight feet above water. Z"
L would like to ask to what part of said levee
he alludes, or does he wish people to infer
that the entire levee is eight feet above water?
The truth of the matter is that the levee is
nearer eight feet under water than out of it,
and so far as the district is concerned, it
would be in far better condition had there
never been a shovelful Of dirt thrown on said
levee. The land in the district is-a very
small margin of the Sacramento river except
ed-from one foot to ten feet under water,
and the Pearson levee has a tendency to keep
it there, by retarding its natural outlet So
far as heard from the levees on Staten, Tyler,
Andrus and Grand islands are still intact,
but sipage water is rapidly accumulatiDg
and doing much damage. Sol RUNYON.
