The Railroad. During last sum
mer we hul frequent occasion to notice
the progress of a railroau survey from
the. mouth of Bonnet's Branch, on the
Siiinciuahonin-r. at the Driftwood Sta.
tiou. on the Philadelphia & Erie Rail
road, to Franklin ou the Allegheny
River, tlicn to connect with the Lake
Shore Branch to Franklin, on the At
lantic k ft mat Western. That .survey
has been finished and the route has
proved to bo entirely satisfactory. The
gradients do not exceed iu any place 40
feet per mile, or tho curves G degress.
As soon as the report comes to hand we
will lay it before our readers.
During the past week two corps of
engineers arrived io town and both par.
ties commenced work ou last Wednes
day. The corps under Mr. M'Minn to
(o locate tho preliminary survey of last
summer, and he immediately proceeded
locate, break ground, and formally take
possession of the line. Tho other corps
under Col. P. Jarret, proceeded in tho
same directum, to make a prjliniimry
purvey on the same ground passed over
by Mr. M'Minn. Both parties win
to entertain the most friendly relations
tow.irJscach other, and no difference of
opinion ate manifested to the uninitiated.
Rumor, however, says, the first party is
under the direction of the Pennsylvania
Railroad company, but this we are au.
thorized to contradict. The Bennett
Branch and Franklin survey, made last
summer, was an independent arrange
ment, aud was ma lo in srood faith, with
a determination to immediately proceed
to its construction. Tho corps under
"'ol. Jarreit is making a survey for the
Central Western R. 11. Co.. link of tho
Atlantic & Great Western R. V-. Co.
We do not know vhat will be tho re
suit of these two surveys, but hope there
will be no conflicting interest, and that
we will get a railroad in the quickest
possible, time. We extend a hearty
welcome to the different corps, und hope
us we believe, a first rate route is before
h-m, and they will find no difficulties
in their route.
GrThe holidays are close at hand
and our dealers are preparing to meet
the w nits of tho season. The largest
and hot t-.tock of goods for this trade
will be found at l-ner& Duriress, eon.
letitinaty establishment, Erie, Pa.

in tho Cindy lino, as well as a general

Panic Among the
kers,
Dressma-
j The recent ruling of certain clauses
! of the Internal Revenue Laws, and tho
j determination to abide strictly by tho
construction nut unon them by those
I
irullv entitled to enforce such claims,
has spread consternation throughout the
ranks of tho milliners and dressmakers
in the city and country. j
It is known that a tax ot six per
cent , is levied upon all mauutaetureu
articles, but it has not been generally
understood to what extent this would
bear upon the dressmaking -and clothing
interest generally. Not only six per
cent charged upon tho receipts of dress,
maker and milliner for their labor, but
upon tho cost of all the materials that
p.i-s through their hands. Thus, for
instance, the value of a rich dress may
range from one to five hundred dollars,
ut out of this the charge lor making is
only twenty or thirty ; the dressmaker,
iwever, is not only charged with a tax
of six per cent., upon her labor, but up
on tho entire value of the material, which
has already, in 1 lie hands of the dry
goods merchant, paid a foreigu or do.
inrstic duty.
Ihisisuot only severo ana oppres.
sive, but it is destructive to the entire
trade interest. Ladies will not have to
ay so heavy at:ix, dressmakers caunot
exact u. sis iu many lusiuuuus n mi.
weighs not only their prolits, but the
whole cost ot making, and rather than
submit to Mich extortion, ladies will have
their dresses made at home.
Take, tor iu.-tauoe, a velvet dress, tho
value of which, with trimmings, would
oe 8-30'J ; the cost of making this would
oe, perhaps, S-t, tho taxes $31,50, rais.
hilt the diessina'.ter's charge, iu itself
moderate, to the exoibitant sum of $5ti,
3U. When it is remembered that the
material, has already paid a foreign du.
ty of ninety per cent., which doubled
e"ut to the purchaser, tne prcpostcr-
ous injustice of the claim will be made
apparent.
There arc, to bo sure, private dress
makers who never pay any government
fax ; who hang out no sign ; whoso busi
ness is carried on secretly and behind
closed doors; who work for ordinary
prices, and whom ladies may covertly
rintronizn. But what a nreiuiun this
offers to dishonesty of every description !
It is into such hands that the entire
business will be thrown, to tho ruin of
hundred and thousands of honest, de
serving, pains-taking, industrious wo
men. .V. Y norhl.
