Since tbe South Pennsylvania revival thgre has been a good deal of speculation as to the position of the Reading company under its present management. Go wan was at the head of the Reading whea the alliance was formed between tlie two com anies, bat Aus tin Corbin, who b now president, is said to be a friend of the, Pennsylvania. O.ie of the a ewspaper organs of tbe Pennsylvania thus pictures tie situation : Although a traffic contract exists between the South' Penn and the Reading tliere is n much chance of its being enlurced aguinst the will of the Reading otSciais. Tlie ReaJ- ing lias sccored all tbe real estate needed to provide a connection at Harrisburg. It is understixd one of tbe first things to be done will be to construct the bridge across the S.is- quehatma to Harrisburg, the piers of which are airvadv built and so form a connection with tbe Harrisburg and Potomac, a line owned by tbe Reading, which has its ter minus at present a few miles distant from tbe river. Before tba original South Penn syndicate stopped work ail the plans had been arranged for tbe completion of the Har risburg & Potomac to the bridge and for a connection over the bridge with the KeadoigJ system, emce toe wore nas oeen stopped a a connection has been made between the Harrisburg and Potomac and the Western Maryland at Shippensburg. so that with tiie completion of the bridge and consummation of the contemplated connection the Reading would have direct access to the coal field of Western Maryland. The Western Maryland road has also acquired possession of the old Eichelberger system of rail row Is about Hall ow and Gettysburg, and is in a position by the construction of about ten miles of roaJ to reach tbe bridge and thus form a new line front Harrisburg to Baltimore. This had i been ia contemplation before the old yn li- j cate suspended operations. It w.'jS to elT.-t I these connections that the construction of tlie bridge was pushed by the South Penn, as it was reoogniznl that this part of the en terprise would thus be prwlucing revemp evemp y ii f from the start," New Goods !

A Eurjesa Sensible Act. EorroK IIlt : The JoiinMnwn Council on Jan can 31st pasred an ordinance preven ting costing on any of the streets in tlx bor ough,, which the Burgees returned with a veto. Among the misoiis he assigned fur cut approving tbe act. his message contained the tuiiowiiuc : Tiiere are only fimr or I3ve s n e j in the bjroogh w here coasting is prac ticed, ami out of tbe fi.ly-two weeks ia year there are not four weeks of coaatiag weather. The parties engaged ia this recrea tion are boys and girls of school aje, and I caa see no ream why they shoo id be pre vented fruai enjoying a phasajit and health- fu; exercise- The veto was the subject of much discea- sion at the meeting of tbe Council on Feb. 2tst ; and, although, the ordinance had pass ed by a large majority in January . the mo tion to carry it, the Burgess' objections Jo tbe contrary notwithstanding, rosi veil only three votes tbe other nine being cast in the negative. Sensible burgess, and sensible Council in taking the sooer second thought, and acting accor.bng'y. Which reminds m to say, that the same can't be said of the action tak en by our Council a.id retiring Burgess. Though young in years they seem old in thoughts. A little intHicent and healthful recreation on th part of the young or old seems in their eyes to be a subject requiring a prohibitory law. Ah, but says one. coasting is da-grrous. Yes. and so is bj'l-playiag. skatin-j, riding on trains, and in buggips, and in !-ih. and i sometimes walking. One slight acrilent on j Main street, during tlie winter, seemed to .' cail out intense ojjviti'.n to coasting frr.m ! very prematurely old man in town: and) forthwith trie wisicres who rr.n the town ' must have a prohibitory law passed. ' The statistics of accidents the present win- ter thro iilioul tiie country show that wl.-re j one perstin was injured by coasting. Jortv were injured by walking. If every little ' accident happening calls for a r.rohihitorv ! a , . . , ' law. why T. rot sn:e reformer move in ; the interest of preventing the praniretiiat 1 causes it.
