STABLES, A VERY X'ARKOW GAUG E KA1L.KOAD. The narrowest of narrow gauge rail roads is now in operation between North Billerica and Bedford, in Mas sachusetts, a distance of eight and a half miles. The track is only ten inche- wide. A B iston corre-poudt-iit of the New York Eceniny Express says B n Butler took oue-fiftieth of the entire stock of this road, the whole aruoui t being $50,000. The cars and engine* of the road are well proportioned, and make a very haadsome appear ance. The engine is behind thet-mUr and next the cars, so that when the train moves, the car next to it draws down upon and increases the adhesion of the engine to the track. Bitii en gines and cars are cons*routed so as to be very near the ground, giving great advantages in regard to safety,al-so very little oscillation. The engines are equally light, and less costly on ord in ary roads. It is quite evident that H road eight and h ilf mile^ long. whi'di cost, equipp ’d, 51 5001- 5* thu.n$50 090, and that can be run at half the t-xpeus ordinary upon roads, must be a great and notable achievement The road cost $1,600 per mds, right of way free. Tho trains run ab >ut- twenty miles ul hour. T ¡is must be a triumph in the narrow gauge way. There’s no fore telling what Yankee ingenuity may bring forth. — Rhilmltlpkhi Record. and Corner of 4r.h and California Sts., I All kinds of stock are thriving,except that some unknown disease has takeu off many of tho hogs; some persons los ing as mtuy as 20 aud in good flesh too.
