has branches to Somerville, Tenn, and to
Florence, Ala, making 1868 miles Of road in
the aggregate The Selma, Rome and Dal-
ton Road, also part of this sytem, extends
from Selma, Alabama, to Dalton Georgia,
a distance of 237 miles. The capital stock
of this corporation was reported in the
financial statement of 1872 at S4,000,00O.
There are many other branches and leased
lines radiating throughout the territory here
tofore mentioned. The effect of this combi-
nation will be to give greater economy of
operation and increased efficiency Of service
than has heretofore been possible under the
old condition of things where the roads were
independent and disconnected. While it Sc
cures to the owners greater protection from
competition, it also affords the public better
and cheaper facilities.
Among the parties interested in this enter
prise are those controlling the coast line sys.
tenn of railroads, including the new and
short railway lines running from Charleston
and Savannah to Florida, and also number
of steamship lines trading between Philadel-
phia, New York, Baltimore, and Southern
coast ports. 1t also connects at Richmond
and at DanviIle with the railway lines from
those points to the Northern and Eastern
States for through passengers and express
traffic, and at Norfolk and West Point with
the steamboat lines to the Northern and Eas.
tern ports for through and way traffic.

A Gentle Hint.

In our style of climate, with its sudden
changes of temperatures rain, wind and
sunshine often intermingled in single day,
it is no wonder that our children, friends
and relatives are so frequently taken from
us by neglected colds, half the deaths result
ing directly flom this cause. A bottle Of
Boschee's German Syrup kept about your
home for immediate use will prevent serious
sickness, large doctors bill, and perhaps
death, by the use of three or four doses. For
curing Consumption, Hemorrhages, Pneu-
monia, Severe Coughs, Group or any disease
of the Throat or Lungs, its success is simply
wonderful, as your druggist will tell you.
German Syrup is now sold in every town and
village on this continent Sample bottles for
trial, l0c.; regular size, 75c

There Is a growing feeling that
Alaska should receive some attention
from Congress, which ought to give
that far-away country some decent
form of government. At present there
is Il naval commander and a revenue
officer at Sitka, who run the whole
country, and are now up to their ears
in jangle about Prescriptions and
homestead rights, of which neither
has any more knowledge than he
has jurisdiction, in consequence of
which government is totally obseured
by the argument going on between the
two eminent Dogberrys. There are
good and sufficient reasons why Alaska
should have Territorial form of gov
eminent, chief among which is the in
creasing attention given to mining
operations, which is sure TO attract a
considerable population in the next
five years. Another potent reason is
the fact that it would furnish an adj
mirable asylum for eastern men who
must be provided with places some
where. Washington Territory is no
longer remote, and since ii has pros
poets ahead of becoming a state it is
no longer an asylum of refuge or con-
venience for the administrator men
of utility, and the more so as few OF
the men provided with places in that
way have proved themselves the equals
Of their ,.'betters," and superior TO the
circumstances Of their appointment
