The first Of the Baltimore and Ohio
Company's new vestibuled trains has been
turned out Of Mt. Clare shops and sn ex-
perennial trip WAS made with it August

the line between Baltimore and keyser
are some of the shsrpsSt curves on the b

rate of speed maintained the swayipg OF
the train was scarcely psrcsptible, the oe-
cillatiou ut the top Of the Car not exceed

This test fully demonstrates what has
heretofore been claimed for the yesthle

ates the swayipg motion impaired to train
in rounding curves at high speed. The

The Creek Bridge-A Suggestion.

TO ne Editor q ne Re0istr:
SIG:-By this mornings REGISTER
see that the question Of building . new
bridge, and asking expressions from ths
people in regard TO the same, in place Of
the late Stone Bridge.
Now, "a former citizen Of Wheeling,
I desire to make this expression:
That the city of Wheeling build good
bridge in place Of the one that was swep,
away, and that the city charge As follows:
Foot passengers, one penny; single horst
and wagon, five cents; two horses and
wagon, ten cents-for the period Of six
months. This charge to be made each triI
and be paid by the parties 30 travelling,
and in this way the bridge can be paid for,
and moi at the expense Of the taxpayers Of
Ohio county.
Ohio county il in debt, and has been
visited within the past two months with q
similar food, and now abe should not
shouider all the expense.
My Judgment 10 thar with the resources
received, a. before stated, the bridge can
be paid for without tax or expense to the
workingmen "a taxpayers of the county.
This is the way such matters were done IN
the days Of our grandfsthers.

But forgot, when by my side,

And on thee should look my last.
And thou shouldst smile no more.
And II thou wouldst stay, cen as thou ar
All cold and all serene

But when speak. thou aost not say

And now feel, as well may,
Sweet Nellie, thou art dead.
