An error of "practically” one hour, as ten in the forenoon is about the right time. The distanoe between Rome and Pittsburg, measured in degrees,of longitude, which is the correct way to find difference in time, is almost exactly 90 degrees. And as 90 degrees is just a quarter of the distance around the earth, the difference in time would bp | quarter of 24 hoars, FfWi Is si* hours, and six honrs earlier than 4 p,m, is 10 a. m.

At Chioago he left the railroad attachments aud took to tbe dirt roads, as the Monon officials refused to issue him a permit to run over their traoks.

The first railroad excursion ever run from the Gifford region into Rensselaer, came this morning, foY tbe oirons. It started at Kersey, the northern end of the line, and gathered up praotioally the entire population clear down to McCoveburg, w here oonneotion was made with the Monon milk train. The latter was so fall by the time the excursionists all got aboard, that those wbo had seats on tbe oar steps or brake-wheels were objects of envy. There were 200 people at least on the Gifford train when it stopped at MoCoysburg, and besides there were many to get on the Monon milker at Lee, MoCeysbnrg and Pleasant Ridge. Mayor Ellis and Lawyer Wilson oame back from Wstseka more than well pleased with th 6 Buck-lin-Darnaby Carnival now exhibiting there.

The officials, business men and oitizens of all classes at Watseka, are of one voice in commending the company, and one leading preaoher' oould not say ensngh by word of month, and wrote a most oommendatory letter for pnblio circulation in its favor. Bat tbe only question now is to secure them at a sufficiently early date.
