TIE Upper Nile railway, although
lately thrown into the shade by the
projected line from Suakim to Berber,
will undoubtedly acquire considerable
Importance whenever the British adj
vance southwark is resumed. Its
originator, the cX.khediye, lsmail
Pasha, carried ii up the river from
Wady Halfa as far as Sarras, He:o
the British took it up last summer,
and had laid down fifteen of the sixty
two miles on the Sarras Fcrkct section
(Which avoids the formidable Dal
rapids) when the want Of material and
of native labor stopped tho work Oct.
2S last. Gen. Wolsclcy now reports
that the completion of the remaining
forty-seven miles of Fcrket, and the
laying down of light tramways at
Fatmch and Khalbar in order to avoid
the cataracts, would establish uninter-
rupted communication by rail ana
water between Wady Halfa, Dongola,
and Korti at any season of the year.
He adds, however, that any project OF
permanent and continuous railway
would involve the necessity of various
heavy cuttings, ono if not more bridge
across the Nile, and possibly several
tunnels as well.

MEDICAL opinion with regard to
Gen. Grants case was given to the
public February 2s. The doctors in
attendance generally agreed that a
cancer was forming at the root of bis
tongue, and that this must shortly
prove fatal. DR.. Douglas says the
trouble was caused undoubtedly by
excess in smoking" On this point
physicians are not agreed. Senator
Ben Hill OF Georgia died some years
ago of cancer on the tongue, ascribed
to the use of tobacco, and Judge w.
D. Kelley of Pennsylvania is a suffer
or from a similar trouble. The cause
of cancer, however, is still disputed
question. Medical authorities say it
is neither hereditary nor contagious
and good health and easy circumstan-
ces that would repel most diseases
seem only to invite this dread disor-
der. The increase of the disease in
England has provoked scientific in.
vestigatioD, but with no practical re-
suit so far as reported.
Many eminent physicians contend,
however, that much of the throat and
mouth diseases Of late years, among
the male population are attributed to
the excessive use of tobacco, which
in its manufacture has become poison
Gus from the chemicals used in color
ing and aavoring. They also claim
that cigarette smoking is particularly
deleterious to health, and is sappiDg
the foundation of the youth Of our
country. Every one knows that Gen.
Grant has been an inveterate smoker
and chewer, and to this cause. alone
they attribute his cancer.

Geo. f. Gober and W. r. Power of Mariet-
ta attorneys for complainants. These
compliments are the original Georgia stock
holders.
The bill alleges that the first twenty five
miles of the road from Marietta to Canton
was built by R. #. Maddox & Co, of which
the complainants were members.
After the road was completed to Canton a
contract was made with Kinsey & Eager to
construct the road on the same terms upon
which Maddox & Co. had built it to Canton
After kinsey & Eager had secured suific-
lent stock, Joseph Kinsey was elected
President and another and different con
tract was made with George R. Eager in
which he was TO receive an exhorbitant
amount of bonds and stock not only for the
roa he constructed but also on that portion
built by the Georgia stock holders.
1t further alleges that syndicate was
formed about the time this last contract was
made of which Joseph kinsey and George R.
Eager were members This syndicate was to
build the road in the name Of George r. Ea-
ger who was the agent of the syndicate and
divide the profits among its members, which
the bill alleges was nothing less than con-
spiracy formed for the express purpose to
gobble up the entire road
