State Treasury, such as the license money
paid by innkeepers and merchants, the tax
es on writs, deeds ,Vc. , as well as the collat
eral inheritance tax, should go into the
Couutv Treasuries.
In the year l1-.'; the money arising from
all these sources, amounted to over three
thousand dollars in Somerset county. I Lid
this money been paid into the County
Treasury, where right and justice will s.iy
it properly belongs, the taxes on the cople
would have been so much less.
The collateral inheritance tax should he
raised to 100 per cent., instead of live per
Cent, as it now is. The dead should never
have power to control the living in earthly
affairs, and collateral heirs are worse than
no heirs at ali.

I Cumberland county it strikes two parallel
ranges of mountains requiring two tunnels

: spec-tively. The work will be costly on this
.division. North of Saiuvia a tunnel nearly
ju mile and a quarter long enables the road
I to pass under Sideling Hill mountain
j Three miles farther the line burrows under
' Ray's bill wiih a shorter tunnel. At this
point the line enters l.edloril county and
IsilloKs, more or less, the valley ofthe Rays
town branch of the Juniata river to Mannus
Choice, pa-sing through Eerett, where a
large new furnace is being built, and the
town of Bedford, two miles distant from the
springs. Near Manns Choice the line fol
lows the rest of Dry Ridge, a spur of tha
Allcghenics, to the main Allegheny moun-
tain, west of New Baltimore, where another
j tunnel about a mile long is necessary,
j Through Somerset county the route is laid
i ..ii the divide separating the Oasselmaii and
j Coneuiaiigh rivers, passing about two miles
j norih of Somerset. Laurel Hill is passed
with the last regular mountain tunnel abent
fi'loO feet long. There the line pases by
' way i f Donegal, and through the Chestnut
i ridge, on the waters f Jacobs creek, but de
i se mis the western slope of Chestnut ridge
I to the waters of Senickley creek, which it
foilons to i's mouth, jus! below West New
iton, i here a connection is made with the
I completed Pittsburg, McKeesport and
I Youghiogheny railroad.
HOW THE WOKK I'ROORESSKS.
There are about four hendred men at work
on sideling Hill tunnel. There as at the
i other tunnels, night work is carried on, the
' electric 'ig'nt being used. The laborers will
! be under ground next week. The ccntract
) ors driving the second of the twin tunnels,
the Kittatinny, have over two hundred men
now at work, and expect to take out ten
thousand square yards of earth each dav.
' Their pay roll amounts to $!),0X a month,
j The men are worked in two gangs of twelve
j hours each, thus enabling the labor to go on
! continuously. The force of workmen will
! be increased as soon as the weather permits
Preparations are being made to commence
work on the line through Westmoreland
county. A man named Diiflin, of West
Virginia, representing a firm of railroad
contractors, is in that section and bus secur
ed eight miles of work, with Donegal as a
central point. He will put a large force of
hands to work as soon as the weather is
"Trial Trip," and make its acquaintance.
