Yesterday's Philadelphia Times says: The failure of the New York, Philadel phia and Norfolk Railroad Company to make satisfactory traffic arrangements for the Southern coast line trade with the lines centering at Norfolk, has Jed it to inaugurate new measures to in crease its business. Today the oontract will be let for three new steamers lor the Pamlico sound and Southern coast trade. -These will run in opposition to the-coast lines now carrying freight to Baltimore. .As the line from Norfolk to this city and New York is much shorter by the New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk, than . by Baltimore, it is expected that considerable additions will be made to the present tramo. ine freight agent of the road reports that an average of sixty through cars per day are being sept over the line, which number will be greatly increased as soon as the small fruit season opens. . The shad business is quite heavy just now, as it only requires twenty-four hours to remove the fish from the waters of the Chesapeake to the frying pans of Philadelphia homes. .The company is constantly stretching out and apparently will not be satisfied until it controls a throngh line t J the Gulf. - , - ;A colored man, in Henry county, Ga., got fifty-seven possums out of one hol low tree; he sold them all, and the first thing be purchased was a bottle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup, the only safe rem edy for coughs and colds.
