A Horse Railroad,s Improvement.
 The rebuilding of the whitneyville Horne Railroad companys tracks is nearly oomplst- cd and the company hopes to commence to take passengers as usual from Chapel street corner Church by Saturday night. Two years sgo the company rebuilt tho read from Sachem street to the Whitneyville terminus, which is about half the distance. Early this spring work was commenced on the other half, from Sachsm street to Chapel, and is now nearly completed. The work of re- building consisted of laying new rails and making the roadbed stronger In every way. Instead of requiring the uss of stringsrs for the rails to lay on, the new T rail is laid on the ties and makes moro even and easier running track. The coat of the improve msnt has been very heavy, but e the pres. snt track and roadbed will keep In good con- dition for the next thirty years, the company think the expenditures will pay them h the end. Two more turnouts have been added to the road besides changing tho petitions of the old ones, and tho company hops to lower the schedule running time from twsnty minutss.to fifteen, that is, during .ths sum- msr months. During the last two weeks pssssngers have had to alight at the corner of Eln and Church strests, but before another week all the cars will be running e usual.
