Sic new railroad corporaiions have been formed to prodace this result—viaz., the Portiand, Rutland, Oswego and Chicago Ratiroad Company, of Maine; the New Hampshire Central Railroad Company; the Wood- stock Railroad Company, of Vermont; tne Rutiana and Woodstock Raiiroad Company, of Vermon:; the Rensselaer and Saratoga Kallroad Company, extend- ing from Rutiand to Fort Aun; the New Engiand and Oswego Railroad Company; and the Northern New Hamps ‘ire aud Boston, Concord and Montreal roads, over which & portion of the line must extend, @re understocd to huve joined hands in the enter- prise. From Oswego westward the Lake Ontario Shore Railroad is in progress toward the Niagara River, working 1n sympathy with the fnends of the through line from Oswego to Portland. The road, as yet, 1 in its intancy, having made littie effort to obtain sub- scriptions, and presenting a balance of less than one hundred ond fifty dollars in the treasury.

Vesuvius Winner of the Hurdle Race, Mid- day the Ml.e Dash, and Salina the Continental Stakes, Mile Heats. Lone Branca, Augast 1, 1971, ‘The first day of the August meeting of the Long Branch races passed off with a degree of ¢cla’ quite unexpected, The appearance of the courte, the commodious galleries of the grand stand comi/orta- bly filted with ladies, andthe inner fled studded with vehicles of the utmost elegance of ornamenta- tion and finish, give abundant proof that Monmou:h Park can have twosuccesstul racing Meetings In one season. Along any of the three rontes from the village to the course--the Deal roa, Beach road and Cedar avenue—there 1s a happy inixture of land and water scape. The surrounding country rejoices in oxtreme fertility. Here are tnose who love retirement, ana perhaps are of the few righteous men Long Branch and surroundings can boast of. Much of this land has been in the same old famuilles for ceaturies, and sometimes I a) melined to believe ine old legends that certain Jerseymen can never die, because of their excessive modesty, or something else. ‘Those who went to the racing grounds by the Beach ronte were refreshed with the breezes of the ocean, giving life to their Jungs and bloom to their cheeks, The surface of tho immense waste, as far as eye could reacn, was unruffied. There was a warm sun, a firmament of sparkling biue, aud tne long swell of the waters Bet against the shore as the heavy respir:tion of sone giant. The roar of the ; Suri added its voice and new charms ty the varieties of sounds, and now and then afar off were seen out on the sea vessels inward ant outward bound; the symmetry of thelr spars, the delicate tracery of cordage and the heavy movement of hulls making @ pleasing specticle to the race-going multitude, Along Cedar avenue the drive was equally exhilarating.
