The extensions and improvements
which the Pennsylvania Kailroad in now
making are oxtraorilinary in their mag
nitude. Ihwides the contemplated ele
vated railroad, hy which the termini of
the line will ho brought neurly into the
heart of the city, the improvementa at
the old Navy Yard, which will give the
river one of the beat wharvca in the
country, and the proposed connection
with Went Cheater; the corporation in
engaged in a nutnher of enterprise*,
which will not only greatly increase it*
business, hut will also prove u direct
benefit to the city,
A new feeder to the main line is at
once to he built from New Hrootufield,
the county seat of l'erry county, eight
miles to the Pci.nsy Ivunia, at a point
between Duncannou and Newport, at
In wit's Hun. The survey for this will
bo finished in about six weeks, when
the work of grading will be commenc
ed, to bo followed hy the laying of the
track in the spring. This spur will
alforil an outlet for the rich ore hanks
cd the county, hitherto almost inaccess
ible. The llellelonto and Snow Shoe
road is soou to pass into the control
of this company. This is a Philadelphia
road, with a paid-in capital of $OOO,OOO
and $'J9,OOO tirst mortgage six per cent,
bonds. The object of the assumption
ol this road by the Pennsylvania Com
| pany is to obtain a shorter route to the
; Kast from the bituminous coal fields of
j the State.
The Pennsylvania Kailroad also in
| tends to reach out for coal in another
1 direction hy constructing a branch of
the Southwest Pennsylvania from Paint-
I ersville to Conuellsville. The Pennsyl
vania Kailroad ill Maryland will also tie
completed within the next two months.
' My this road the Pennsylvania will be
brought directly to the great ('umber
land coal fields, and will become the
chief transporter of the bituminous
product.
Another important wotk is the
straightening of the main line between
LHiwningtown and Glen loch. For six
miles there is a series of sharp curves,
two of them ticing the governing curves
on the division. The intention ol the
company is to build an entire new line,
perfectly straight, in place ol the curved
portion. Tins will result in a slight
saving of distance and a saving of the
wear and tear of rolling stock, estimat
ed to he equivalent to hauling "no cars
a day for nothing. This woik has been
given out in five sections.
The most important work of the
year is the llarsiinus cove improvement,
liy virtue of its long leaseof the united
railroads of New .Jersey the company
controls a considerable water front at
llarsimus cove, about half a mile north
of its Jersey City terminus, and just be
low the American stock yards. It is
proposed to replace the pier at that
joint by a fine elevator and two new
piers which will l>e the largest on the
1 river, line of these new piers will have
dock room on one side of it only, the
j space on the other side being filled by
twenty-four tracks, affording standing
: room for six miles of freight cars The
pier projx-r will be 120 feet in width
by 1,310 in length. Above this there
will be a second pier 175 feet in
width by 1,320 feet in length. At the
: head of these piers will be a bulkhead,
upon which is to be an elevator with a
j capacity of 1,5.10,000 bushels. The pier*
| will l>e long enough to admit throe
ocean steamships in a row on each side
lof the piers, so that nine in all can IT
accommodated at once, and three load
ed simultaneously. Proposals lor this
work will be invited soon, ns the plans
have already been approved by the di
-1 rectors.
Meanwhile rail manufacturers are
congratulating themselves that an era
|of prosperity is dawning for them, as
proven by the record of the railroad
projects now under way in the Unites!
States. During the present year 1,(183
iniles of track hare been laid, against
819 for the norms pot o'fcg period in
1878,731 in 1877, 932Mk|576, 518 in
1875 and 727 in |s7l. The number of
improvements and extensions now un
der way in the United Slates make an
aggregate of an additional 3,000 mile*
to the. railroad Hacks of the country.

"Been out among your constituent*

"Oil, ye*," he replied, "I left home

"What is your opinion, now. Senator,
as to Ihe political effect of the recent
extra session J"
"The political etli-ct of the extra SCK
*ion i* beneficial to the Democratic par
ty," answered the Senator very decisive
ly. "It ha* called tho attention of the
j public to tho enormity of tho Federal
election laws, to the power they confer
I upon tho Administration to control
| elections, and the fraud* that may he
! perpetrated upon tho ballot box under
j the color of legal authority. I have no
I doubt that the honest masse* every
! where will repudiate these law*, and the
! men who upheld and supported them.
| Indiana will express hci condemnation
| of them at the first opportunity by m
j creased Democratic majorities. The ex
' tra session has 111 another way benefitted
| and strengthened the Democratic par-
I ty. It 11 a-* clearly and distinctly drawn
the lino of demarcation between the
Democratic parly, standing upon its an
cient doctrine* of a strict construction
of tho Constitution, preserving to the
Federal Government all its jnt t-giits
ami powers, and securing to the states
i and to the people all their reserved
rights, and the Reputilican party, Un
representative of the federal idea ol
consolidation. The tinao clearly you
•feline the dillerenco between Federal
ism and Democracy to the people of
tins country, the stronger you make the
Democratic party. The extra session
has led to a clear definition of these
two opposing id -.is of our Government,
and there is tm doubt, in my mind, a*
to which one of them the people will
approve."
"Then you believe in future Demo-
Icrat ic success 7"
"1 do. The Democratic party ttiind*
on belter ground now than it hn* oecu
pied since the war: it ha* a more hopeful
tnture before it. The finnn< lal quc*iiom
are gradually settling themselves ; so
that by the time the l'reaidential cam
paign open* thev will not cteate any •
riou* difference in the Democratic party,
while the high cotiservat ive stand it has
taken has increased public confidence
in it* patriotic aim* and purposes. I
believe confidently that we wiii win tlo-
I'rcsidential election next year. All the
influences are operating in our favor,
and our party is growing stionger every
d.ty."
"What do you think about the ''hio
election '!"
"I believe F.wing will tie elected. All
the information I've had, together with
my own observation, lead* me to that
conclusion. The only danger Fwing bad
to apprehend was from hard moncy
Democrat* in -Southern ' 'hio, hut they
are supporting htm cordially, anil he
will tie elected."
"Have you read John Sherman *
Maine speech 7"
"Ye*; ami I wouldn't make suah a
speech a.* that for any consideration.
He talk* iil-out the Democratic party
indorsing secession and nullification.
He know* that is not true. The Demo
cratic party lis* always Iwen the enemy
of secession ami nullification, ami of
extreme State right* in every form. It
stands now and always ha* upon Jeffer

dress ; u|-nn a strict construction of the
Constitution—upholding the delegated

Twelfth. That the mccetl of tlm admin

reduction ol the State debt, uud the en
forced compliment of the present Demo

This means of course that under But

which for so many years made llietn the
terror and the scandal of the State.
Without this liberty to plunder they
would not desire the oftice. During the
whole period of their possession they
appropriated the interest on the public

itll.of them—became enormously rich,
and the expense* of primaries ami gen

which controlled the Legislature and

from thi* source. f course they want

the number* of nil the Loud* were at
once advertised and sent to every bank
in the world, and this, it was believed
would effectually prevent their being
negotiated .>r used to any profit by the
robber*. It turn* out that the skill of
the robber* in making bond* negotiable
was underrated, and that they have long

1 n the 'Jridi in-t., it was discovered in

The platform adopted by the li.mo
cratic Male Convention ircnu to have
• tirre-J uji t!• bile of the Republican
editor* considerably. Wjth one accord
they denounce it, being unable to criti
cite it in a spirit of fairness. The plat
form make* tin- issue in regard to a
consolidated government which the Re
publican leader* have professed to court,
aid ~t.il they are not happy. Now that
they are o|Knly challenged to defend
the course ol their party in Congrea* on
the eitj*-<rt of federal interference in
State election* they strive to evade the
issue by denying that there i* any in
tention on the part of their administra
tion to use the army at tli<-j-oll*. Kvti
il tin* were true it doe* not cover the
whole ground, because the Ib-mocratic
tilatforin alao attacks the practice of the
Republican politicians ol using federal
uiaraha'* paid out of the I'nited Mates
1 lea'ury to influence elections. The
Keput .ican rwiirnals will not attempt to
deny that thousands of naturalized citi
/••ns have been disfranchised by intimi
dation arid lawless force exercised by
partisan deputy marshals, nor will they
have the effrontery to dispute the fact
that the fraudulent President vetoed
the executive appropriation hill solely
beoHU-M it di<i not make provision for
the payment of political deputy mar
shal* and l-ccau*e it foil .vie the expen
diture of the | utile money except uj-on
appropriation made according to law.
Ihe power to appoint marshals for the
purpose of sup-wising and regulating
elections is ha d up.n the assumption
! that the federal government may *u
, lain the marshals 111 the performance of
their work with all the force at it* com
rnand, and that of course mean* the use
of the army at the poll*. Hence the
; Republican editors will find it rather
difficult to evade the issue presented by
the democrat*. Indeed they might a
well make up their minds to except and
meet it like men. They will not t>e
permitted to dodge a question of such
prominence l>efore the country.

On the whole the Congressional in
vestigation in Cincinnati it a rather a
tedious entertainment, hut in one re
*pect it 1* not unprofitable. The com
mittee has succeded without any spe
cial effort in showing that in Cincinnati,
as in Philadelphia and in St. Louis, the
deputy marshal! employed to hang
about the pdl* under the pretence of
preserving order were the offsoouring
of the city. They were not only all of
one party, but of the very refuse of
that party, with here and there a dash
of respectability to keep the crowd
| from diffusing too great a stench. It
will be a Messed thing when this hush
no** is broken up. and the ]etnocrat*
of the country covered a multitude of
faults in attempting to do it at the ex
tra session. There is no instance on
record in which these janissaries of the
( |olitical bosses have done any of the
good work contemplated by the law
authorising their appointment. When
they have (lone the least harm tbey have
simply done nothing except draw their
per diem. If we are to have deputy
marshal* they should lie appointed by
the United States Courts, with due re
gard to the character of the appointee*
and the protection of the in teres t of
both parties. The present system is
disgraceful beyond redemption.
