The Philsdelphis Record Of yesterday
has the following with regard to the ru
mored lease Of the Philadelphia, vii
mington and Baltimore railroad by tn.
Pennsylvania Railroad Company:
According to president Hinckley, o.
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Bal.
timore railroad, there Is no truth in the
rumor that the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company was to lease that line. He
declares the Pennsylvania road would
not pay nine per cent. dividend, and
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Bal
timore would not lease for q ten per
cent. dividend. II the Pennsylvania
Company was to lease the line, he said,
IL would force the Baltimore and Ohio
70 at once commence the construction
Of competing line between New York
and Baltimore. Again, II the Psnnsyl
vania Company was to get possession
of the Philadelphia, Wilmington aud
Baltimore they would Immediately be
obliged to put up fares-in order to be
the same rates they now
charge on their main line, three cents q
mile TO West Chester, Downingtown,
Bryn Mawr and intermediate points,
while on the Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimore to Wilmington or Ches.
Ter and stations between these places
the fare 10 but two cents Q mile"

A New Hampshire Trag edy.

PORTSMOUTH, N. f., Oct. 3.-The par.
ticulars Of what appears to have been
q justifable homicide came to this city
this afternoon. Saturday evening John
Elkins, of Danville, was induced by
Andrew Dearborn, = notorious and des.
perate character, to go to house seve-
raj miles from his own house in search
Of Dearborn's wife. Elkin's wife insist
ed on going with the two men, and
know ing Dearborn's character persuad-
ed her husband to take his revolver
with him.
They we're unable to find the woman,
and while returning through the woods,
it being very dark, Dearborn suddenly
asked Elkins II he had any money, and
said: cd you, you've got to die"
at the same time striking him in the
face with q whip. stock. Elkins, who
had previously armed himself with
q stake, knocked his assailsnt down,
broke his skull into twenty pieces and
fred two bullets through his head. He
and his wife then gave themselves up
to the Sheriff. This is the account of
the affair as told by Mrs. Elkins, who
is only nineteen years old, and che
statements are corroborsted by Elkins
himself, who is twenty, one. The dead
man was forty-fve years old.

That we've had near enough;
So I'D like to inform you on whom things are

Oh, sad is the plight,
Noon, morning, and night,
OF the dapper and trim young gentleman who
Must WOO
Fair customers trade with smiles winning
and bland,
And with wave OF tie hand
In suavest OF accents their cash must demand.
How their hearts are rent E5zA
BY the glanoes oft sent
From optics that, past all compare
How their pulses must throb at 0 casual touch
Oi fairy hands such

All, thus comes the wear

Republican Recrntts.

No fact distinguishes the Republican
party from the Democratic more strong
ly than the recruits each is receiving,
Judge Tourgee, in his speech at Chi.
eago last Thursday evening, stated this
clearly, as follows: ibid you ever no
tice the fact that young men never
leave the Republican party Never.
Just look over the whole list of men
who are claimed as converts by the
Democrats year after year, and you
never find young men among them.
Corpse corpses going into the Demo-
cratic grave-yards, seeking that eter-
home of the useless dead.
But whenever you find man con
ing from the Democratic party t, the
Rep a blican he comes with full veins !;
he comes with q life before him he
comes with hope chock full Of days
works. 1t is this which makes the
characteristic between the
two parties. forward is always the Re-
publican battle.cry. AS you were,
the order which rings aloag the Demo-
cratic line. The one lives in the pres
ant and for the future. The other, like
q buzzard, finds nothing good until it
Is rotten"

THE COMPLAINT OF PRISON KEEPERS.

The keepers In the city prisons are beginning to
complain Of the compensation they receive which
they claim is totally inadequate in view, of the
peculiar duties devolving upon them. They are
Obliged to work twelve hours daily. to purchase
their own uniforms and TO make themselves respon-
sbe on an average, for the safety of fifty prison.
ers Their duties compel them to take to court the
most desperate criminals for whom ,writs of habeas
corpus have been obtained-murderers, forgers,
burglars and those accused of the highest grades Of
crime-and these, they assert, are the persons who
resort most freely to the use of any technicaity,
which might assist in their DISCHARGE rather than
trust to the uncertainty of trial. If unsuccessful
in their application for release, they will resort to
any methods of escape, and the keepers claim that
this fact makes 1t necessary to have trustworthy
men to deal with such desperadOes. They think
$500 per year, their present wages, wholly out of
proportion to the responsibilities of place which Is
at best dangerous one and which requires so much
wafchfulness and activity. AS rents arc advancing
and the prices of all the necessaries Of life have
LARGELY increased. they say 1t is impossible for them
10 provide for their families and at the time
save any part of their wages. They therefore APP
peal to the Legislature for the passage of q law
making the salaries of the keepers in city prisons
the same as is now paid TO policemen and firemen.

Ribs FOR LIGHTING THE STREETS.

A meeting of the Gas Commission was held yester-
day. At the meeting held last week the commission
rejected the bids of the gas companies for lighting

priation. The companies yesterday submitted the
following now proposals
The New York Mutual Gas Light Company for the
lamps the line of its main between Thirty-fourth
and Slxty-fifth-sts., and Second and Ninth-aves.,
and in all the public parks and squares between
Grand and Thirty-fourth-sts., $15 so each;
The New-Y York Gas Company for all tho lamps
south of Grand-st. at $15 so each.
The Manhattan Gas Company for the lamps be-
tween Grand and -fourthsts, at $50 90 each:
The Metropolitan Gas Company for portion OF
the lamps between ThirtvfOurth and Seventy ninth
The Harlem Gas Company for all the lamps be-
tween Seventy-ninth-st. and Harlem RIVER at
The Yonkers Gas Company for the seventy lamps
at Riverdale, $50.
The New-York and New-Jersey Globe Gas Com
pany for any portion of the lamps between Eighty
ninth and Northumberland fourteenth-sts. and
Third-aVe and the East River, SIC.
The Municipal Gas Company for the lamps on the

The reduction in these bids is about $4,000.
