Wonders and Curiosities of the Railway; or, Stories of the Locomotive in Every Land. By WILLIAM SLOINE KENNEDY. Second Edition. 12mo, pp. 254. Chicago: S. C. Grigg & Co. 9 The railway and the locomotive have not yet attained to a place among the things of yesterday, for the men are yet among us who were when they were not, and who saw their faintest beginnings. But they are rapidly making a history of their growth and achievements, and Mr. Kennedy renders a public service in bringing together their "stories,” and in telling of their "wonders and curiosities," which are equally amusing and instructive. Some, however, are beginning to doubt whether “the railroad is the good democrat " that it was once supposed to be. As a political factor it certainly has its price, and, in the vast machine of modern industry, while the scream of its whistle is worth a thousand men, it renders its services less for the easement of the operative than for the enrichment of the capitalist.
