The process of calling an extra
session Of congress is very simple.
All that is needed is a proclamation
from the President, of which no pres
vious notice is required. The last
extra session Of both houses was the
n called by President Hayes in 49,
70. For this the call was issued pre-
cisely forteen days before the date
fixed fer the meeting Of congress.
BY reference to cur advertising cols

senger Opera House by the Fall,
A careful review Of the shipping
books of the A, 81 Nc, r. r. at this
point shows, that during the truck
season of 1892, from April LIST to
June 23rd, inclusive, the above road

from along its line; and during the
same period of this year it handled
$4,000 packages AMI pcrease of a.
900 packages, This speaks well fur
the progress of the roa and the
spirit of enterprise that characters
ICES its present competent and saga
cious administration.
