MOONLIGHT ON THE UNCANoox,r,,

MOONLIGHT ON THE UNCANOoNuEs.
How soft the moonlight falls upon each
crest ei'
OF our loved mountainsi In a limpid sheen
OF, silvered gold they lie and seem to
dream
Like tired children on their mothers
breast.
The kingly pines uplift their emerald
crowns,
The beach leaves rustic in the f1tful gale;
The swaying branches cross each moon
lit dale.
And while muse fox's shrill bark
sounds
Within the woods and slowly dies away.
All! this is night! and such night as
this,
Thrilled by the rapture of the moons
soft kiss
1t almost seems as glorious as day.
Our mountains dream; the moonlight
mellow bliss
with gray.

RAILWAY CONSTRUCTION,
Less Than Two Thousand Miles OF Track
Laid Since Last January.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-From advance
sheets Of an article on railway con-
struction in 1894 to appear in the next
number of the Railway Age it appears
that Notwithstanding the many diff

during the last eleven or twelve
months nearly 1000 miles of new
track nave been laid in the United
States during the year now closing,
while grading and preliminary work
has been done on "A considerable ad-
ditional mileage. In thirty-four of
the forty-eight states and territories
track has gone down on 1873 lines to an
aggregate, according to latest returns,
OF 1919 miles. and it is possible that a
few miles more may be reported III the
final statement.
There are fourteen states and terri
tories which have made no additions
To their railways. These are Vermont,
Rhode Island. Connecticut, Delaware.
Maryland, Kentucky, Indian country.
Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, Wash
ington, Nevada and Idaho. Oregon
barely escaped omission by adding less
than 2 miles, and Massachusetts, New
hampshire, North Carolina and Vir-
GINA kept in by building from 3 to 7
miles each. The number of new roads
IN 1894 was 1913, against Pa in 1898 and
329 in 1892.
The steam railways of the United
States now aggregate in length 49,
672 miles. OF this mileage 81. 800 miles
were added in the last ten years, an
average of 5,430 miles each year
