The Washington correspondent OF t le
Alexandria Gazette says: People here
from down the Potomac are laughing
at a recent newspaper cut representing
the line Of the imaginary new railroad
between this city and Richmond by
means of bridge across that river at
some point either in Westm ireland or
King George county. They say the
engineer who suggested any such
scheme has more whoels in his head
than the railroad company will have on
its cars. Short railroad bridges are bad
enough, but one four or FIVE miles long
over water thirty or forty feet deep
they said would cost great deal more
than it would come to, besides destroy
ing navigation. -

Bai.ac a Terror to Printers.

With no Unborn literary facility. with
an Unborn artistic conscience that drove
him on in untiring pursuit of perfec-
ton, BalZac filed the vast chasm be-
tween his thought and Its expression
with countless pen strokes and by
methods of composition all his own.
the exact reverse of those OF Dumas,
writing Mt white heat. never rewriting,
or OF Hugo. who said. II know not the
art of soldering a beauty In the place
of defect. and correct myself In an
other work"
Balzac began with short and
sketchy and slipshod skeleton. making
no attempt toward sequence or style,
and sent II. with all Its errors, to the
printer. Proofs were returned to him
In small sections pasted In the center
of huge sheets. around whose wide Dor
ders soon shot from the central text
rockets and squibs OF the authors adj
ditions and corrections fired by his In.
furiated fist. The new proofs came
back on similar sheets, to be returned
to the printer again like the web and
tracks Of tlpsy spider. This was re-
peated n dozen or. II Is said. score Of
times. always with applications. until
his typesettcrs became palsied luna
tics. He overheard one of them as he
entered the office one day say: 1--WE
