SIX THOUSAND MILES,

Of raildroad perhaps does not seem
much at this.day when people talk
of continual systems of railway. and
mfliioHs OF dollars as though they
were there bagatelles. But forty years
ago they were not SO many miles of
road in the United States. To-day
but few even of the largest railroad
corporations in the world have 80
many miles under their control. It
is onlyin the West that this has been
done, and 1.-THE Burlington System"
is one of the few which is able to show
such a grand total. With all this
vast network of lines, covering the

Samuel Benner, an Ohio farmer,
who has gained considerable notoriety
through the newspapers for his pres
.dictions of future events, and who .
few years ago published small
volume on the ups and downs of
prices, which had q great sale, has
now communicated to the Real Estate
Journal, of this city, his prophecies
for the year 1888, in which he says:
''This year, 1883, being the closing
year In this cycle of low prices--seven
years from 1ssl--is the golden oppor-
tunity to commence the foundation
for a business. If there Is any benefit
to be derived from knowledge Of
these cycles In trade. it will be In
taking advantage of them.
Young men who are about to COM
mence their business career should
embrace their present opportunity.
There are but few of these chances In
an ordinary life. It requires about
ten years to complete an up and down
in general trade,
When the depresslons which fol
low commercial crises reach theil
lowest limit, as determined by these
price cycles, they afford the best op'
portunities for investment, and the
height of speculatives eras are the

A HORDE OF 'POSsUMS.
The Animals are Kept in a Room on
Marietta Street.


From the atlanta (Ga) Journal.
One hundred and sixty 'possums huddled
together in one room, or climbing about on
poles placed therein for their accommo-
dalton.
That's what a Journal man saw at the
wholesale grocery and seed store of j. c.
Mcmillan & Co., on Marietta street.
The 'possum room was as dark as Erebus
On number of poles running across the
room were little 'possums, big 'possums, fat
'possums, gray 'possums, black 'possums,
every one with swapping little black eyes
and grinning teeth.
One great big fellow that weighed fifteen
pounds was hanging by his tail from the
gas jet, he having reached the jet by jump
ing from a pole close by.
Cuddled up in the corner of little box
on the floor was little gray 'possum that
growled AMI snarled like a cat whenever
any other poSSum came near his home
This 'possum was the smallest in the lot,
but whenever no approached bunch of his
fellows they always parted to make 70 )m
for him, as he was undoubtedly 1.-THE cock
of the walk" Some of the 'possums STAY
in this room for two weeks, but most of
them remain there only few days before
they are taken out to have their necks
cracked.
They are fed on slops just as pig is fed
Two of the 'possumS escaped one night,
and the next morning the mangled remains
of fourteen chickens were found scattered
about the store room. The Mcmillan
'possum house is perhaps the only one In the
world, as the animals are generally kept in
coops until they are wanted for the table
II the trade in 'possums continues to in
crease within the next few years we may
expect to see a sign something like this
Mcmillan Bros, wholesale dealers in and
importers of possums. the largest 'possum
dealers in the SOUTH"
We may also expect to see large houses
erected, built expressly for the accommoda-
tions of the 'possums which are brought to
this market

a Narrow Escape.

An exceedingly narrow escape from a
terrible disaster occurred on the cemetery
road near the brick yard yesterday After
noon. The elevated portion of the high
way for some distance there is not much
wider than an ordinary wagon, and to
prevent danger to a certain extent, the
commissioners have put up guards about
four feet below the road level. AS the
Sass funeral procession was passing that
way Yesterday afternoon, the back end of
the large covered wagon, driven by Mr..
Jos. Gmball, of Davenport, and contain.
ing the Butchers Association, commenced
to slide down the embsnkment. One of
the horses fell at the same moment, and
this acted as a check to the sliding
wheels; otherwise the entire wagon load,
horses and all, would doubtless have slid
down the bank distance of twenty
feet. The results can be imagined
