It is not improbable that this will be done; if either Of the amputee should hold out sof ficliett inducements to take the trade and dis pense with a farther, expenditure.of capital. That, portion of the line between 'Mount Carbon and the Little !Schuylkill, a distance of thirteen and two-tenths miles; presents the only difficult work to be encountered; and su this is not ranally; expensive: The short branch - coonecting with the Mine Hill Rail road, Will Inquire en iembacknent averaging twenty heft in height for t distance of one thousand Teetscross the .

Pro 'ceedlogesstward from the junction, the work is generally light except at Eller'. run near . Spring Garden, where the approach from the " west will require heavy excavation ; the val ley is narrow, and will he crossed with' trestle work Of considerable 'elevation the exact attitude cannot be given until the final loca tion is made. From this place, to the sum mit east of the County Farm, 'the work is very light and , the line getierally free from curvature; the summit is panted with a eta thig of moderate depth, .but-Aieuly half i toile in length; this heavy work is c.ompen site& by freedom keit expensive construc tion for several miles.At Pine Creek the valley.

Only a fractional portion of this work can be regarded as expensive, and the whole costpf construction Is entirely within the mesna - Msucr landowners end operators, or of either...of the owners of- the Lehigh .im provements.. There are but three bridges of any importsnee the line, neither of which will require to be o e than one span. of lea than ordinary dimen and as two of them will be connected with trestle-work of Considerable ekntion„ they will be deck bridges, and only, require common supporting As the speed of trains will be !ladled to six or eight miles an hour, trestlework may safe ly be substituted for embankment et all points where tbe material fort:Wing is not furnished from necessary excavatkets, or is difficult• to .be obtained. The treading can be built of prepared lumber, so as to render it durable and neatly fire-probf, and the plan of con struction can be such es to permit all needed repsin without interference with the move ment of trains.. Whenever the affairs of the company. will Mow it, permsoent structures may take the place of alt temporary work; but there will be no danger of interruptions to a Well. organized , Itureetnent over timber work as here propeted, and the first cost of the road will be materially lessened, as the headset earthwork will be disported with, and the time required in construction will, be shortened several months.; 'besides It so hap pens that the heavy fillings, where timber work is provend to be substituted, are at points where .the gredes light, and no `clinger can be apprehended from anelerited. ineeds in passing these structure,. anulleata. The maximum grades ascending eastward, and consequntly against the coal trade, are , twelve feet per mile from the initial points to Hummers summit; Menthe toad adescends forty feet per toile to Fate Creek, to reduce ibis height of embankment in crossing the valley ; from here tap grads to Idoirerts namit is twelve feet per mile; from the Summit to the Little Schuylkill the line deseendeat the rate of forty feet_ per mile. To reduce the pres ent cost of construction and secure a favor- I able connection with the Little Schuylkill Railroad, or any other_ line, which may be constructed there, it is.deemed advisable to I use auxiliary power in the movement of max [ imam trains as far as Wertman'a summit, a distance of Ave and a half miles, and the grade on this portion b established at forty five rest-per mOe; hen this summit to the Lehigh 'mils th l e t ired a e sc dh d a s n w ith about u fifte ingrads g en g I froth ten to thirty bet pa mile. ft is practicablelo cross the Talley Of.the Little .-Schnylkill - at.

They were originally Jitter:tied to aecommodate •a load business, and were extended-to meet the expanding wants of the community. The latter company has been managed with marked abilty in se curing by liberal coecessions the convergence upon its road of the business of two impoelant railway litter, )laving' connections with the north and math, and draining the products of &large portion of the Anthracite Coal Plaids of Pennsylvania, The grades on both of these roads are untamable for the economical movement of heavy coal and freight trains,- and there seems to Woo method of-improv log either liee, in this rerpect to the required extent. The rapid- growth of the country between New Yet k and 'Estee and in the valley of the Lehigh, will furnish profitable employment for both roads hr carrying Pal' seogere and • local height, so that the con struction of another line tor a through traffic . -business cannot depreciate the value of either. Every interest demands that coal. which is the great primarpower Of so many branches of Industry, turd dispenses-Its countless bitter logs widely among the tumble poor as well as the rich of the land, should have the cheapest transit which skill and energy co provide. - Many millions of tons of leis fuel are annuall y i distributed at th e seabciard to' supply the wants of a large and growing population ; vast manntacturing enterprises, the United States Navy, and the immense fleet of ocean and otber steamers. Between the shipping port and the mines the charges should be reduced to meet is far as practica ble the public demand for cheaper transpor tation. Under the present system of moving heavy trains, no great reduction can be expected.; by riding! changes only; can this ilesimble object be accomplished, and the most import ant of these is the classification of railway service, and the entire reparation of the tiro duct of our mines, seeking tide -water, from all focal freight, and fast passenger and ex press business. This view of the subject leads to the - consideration of • Through Testae iteiele. An opinion Novelle among many men'of the largest experienat In railroad manage meat, that where circumstances will admit of,, it, through traffic toads should be construct ed and operated on the bests of cheap trans portation for the common benefit of AK—. There are few localities where this sin: be done, because the industrial Pursuits of near ly every district are,of a diversified character and conducted on the principle of interchange of products, and frequent intercourse between producers and consumers, reqdiring roads where passenger and freight trains are con stantly intermingled. ; - The movement of trains on roads of this class must necessarily be attended with greater expense in the aggregate, than would be the case if turiformity in Speed; equip. ment, and other characteristics could be ;re served throughout ; becam If e there be but a stogie train per diem rtur at, thirty miles an hour every conditibn of the track, bridges, inn:mute equipment, and police must be fully up to that standard. or life and limb wilt be ' in "cmstant jeoPardy. Transportation of the •prime necessaries of lite, or the great staple, fur cots: motion in domestic arts and mum factures, upon such roads are subjected to a rate of charge which seriously cadets with the interests of producer and consumer ; but the past history of nearly every railroad ht this country, as well as moat of the European lines shows that the net profits of the capital invepted, are less than the earnings of most other kinds of basin m. It is trae that the in come of nearly all, the roads in the loyal States during the late war was very large,- and enabled many of them to relieve them selves from serious ginaacial embarrassment.' In many cases It was a greater bjery than benefit both to the companies and public, be- • cause it led to many extratagancies, ambi tions twojects and high chargeglhat most of them find it exceed in gly difficult to recede from, now that the industries of the land are prostrated. In :many instances by the very causes which enriched the companies, and clamor for reductions in the charges _tbr transportation of their products Moat of the large corporations are seekiog by mergers, consolidations, and lessestif the weaker lines, to obtain control of the carry ing basins and keep up prices. That this is their object, must be apparent to any one conversant with the subject ; for it is impale eihiceo dud an instance where movement of this kind bap resulted in a reduction of f eight or passenger charges. This tendency to eentralaralou of railway power is working greater els to the languid pursuits or the country Um appears to the casual oboe ter; and the only way to meet and abode the &bums growing out of these practices, is to or ganize a conibthaticnt of Interests among pro-- damn and consumers, for the purpose of building cheap freight lines wherever prac ticable - It is the Mime extrategmelee of the man agement which &barbs the earning. and leaves the stockholders without a dividend.
