4 Very Remarkable Railroad.

Probably the most remarkable railroad
in the world is that running from Clog
gintz ~ Lounering, near Vienna. II Is
only twenty-five miles in length, and cost
over 100000 IL begins at the little
station of Gloggintz, at an elevation Of
400 feet, and from there the train,
hauled by two powerful locomotives,
winds round and round over some fifteen
double yiaducts aud through as many
tunnels. Ii creeps along precipices afford
ing glimpses Of some Of the widest
scenery in Europe. Its terminus, Loun.
ering, IS at an elevation Of $500 feet -

Gullibility.

The Wild phantOms and shtiektng cries OF d
worthless humbug can make money By impOs

honest public, and the supply Of this species
of work seems more than an adequate demand.

crucial tests-facts proven by brain force and
tangible evidence should satisfy all laudable
enterprises; but the eXecrabie practice OF

When one house tells you that Iodide of Pot
ash is poison simply because their Opponents
use IL, and because theyare pandering 70 your
ignorance, ms they suppose, you should look
upon all such as arrant frauds and their rene
dies az unworthy public confidence. and If
those who make such assertions do not know
better. they are a set Of unenyiable ignOra-
