trHon. Amos Kendall, a vener
able and prominent man, died in
Washington City, Friday last, aged
eighty-one years. For many years he
was active in public life at the nation
al capital, aud will be remembered as
having filled the office of postmaster
general during JacksonTs administra
tion. He also held the same office
under VanBuren. In his day he was
perhaps the most conspicuous and
talented Democratic editor in the
Union.
ag'-Hon. Kobert J. Walker died
at Washington, D. C, Thursday mor
ning, aged 68 years. He was a native
of Pennsylvania. At the age of 20 he
removed to Mississippi and became,
at 35, a United States Senator. He
was a Jackson Democrat. Mi. Polk
appointed him Seetetaryof the Treas
ury. For the last 20 years he has resi
ded in Washington. In 1857 Buchan
an sent him as governor, to Kansas, but
while there he revolted and quarrelled
with the President. Since that date
lie has mostly voted with the Republi
can party, though taking no active
nhare in party politics.
H In the next legislature of West
Virginia the Senate will stand 18 Re
publicans and 4 Democrats, and the
House 32 Republicans and 24 Demo
crats. SAn official examination in the
New York custom house shows that
the government has been defrauded
of not less than 800,000, and it may
be a million dollars, by the withdraw
al of goods from bond upon fraudulent
papers.
The Mississippi State election
will be held Nov. 30, on adopting the
new State Constitution and for State
officers. A gentleman living in that
State recently expressed to us great
confidence in a Republican success.
However, we have our misgivings as
to the result The total registration
of the State is 139,927. of whom 59.175
are whites, and 80,751 colored. Should
the colored vote prove true to the
Republicans, as it should, of course
the result, on a full and fair vote would
he for progress and against the reac
tionists.
SarA Washington dispatch says
that the President has already com
pleted the general portions of his mes
sage, but cannot finish it till .he re
ceives the reports of the members of
the cabinet. The document will not
be a long one. The President takes a
very gratifying view of our financial
situation. It is not known what rec-
commendations he will make.
3i The mails seem ta be running
wild. A report from the Cincinnati
post office shows that within a month
past the New York mail for that cirj
was sent once by way of Chicago, once
by way of Memphis, once by St. Louis.
The New York mail for Washington
has, in the same time, been returned
from Orleans, and a report from the
latter city shows that the northern
mails have failed seventeen times in
the last forty days.
Presbyterian Assemblies.
The Old School and New School
Presbyterians assembled last week in
Pittsburgh, Pa., to conclude upon a
basis of organic union of the two
branches of that church. A report
from the joint committee on re-union
was presented in both assemblies and
unanimously adopted without dissen
sion. The basis of union agreed upon
is substantially as follows :
That these churches agree to form an
organic union on a basis of the princi
ples embraced in their respective testi
monies and other subordinate standards
which they hold in common. That
when united shall be called the Union
Presbyterian Church, consisting of the
reformed Presbyterian and united Pres
byterian churches, and that the united
judiciatory of the united church shall be
ailed the General Assembly oi the
United Presbyterian Churches of North
America. That the different boards, in
stitutions and respective churches shall
not be affected by the union, but shall
have control of their funds, retain all
their corporate and other rights and
privileges until the interests of the church
require a change.
jar-It U believed that the Supreme
Court has come to a conclusion on the
legal-tender question, but the decision
declaring the law unconstitutional is
withheld for prudential reasons. The
Chicago Tribune asserts that "Chief Jus
tice Chase, who took us away from
specie payments, is anxious to restore
the country to a coin basis; but thinks
he is managing the question rather as a
politician and financier than a jurist.
The decision last winter, that coin was
still a "legal tender," was generally felt
to be a step towards resumption ; and the
recent decision that contracts payable in
Confederate currency can be collected in
so much gold as the sum called for in
Confederate currency us worth at the
time tne contract was made, is thought
to be the declaration of a principle whose
logical conclusion will do much to sim- !

plify specie resumption. For if theSu-
preme Court is about to decide the legal.

early day, will soon Ik? taken. This

with our inexhaustible coal region,
and at the same time bring tnem in
convenient proximity to tome, and
in immediate connection with other.
imiortant railroad lines running east
and west, and north and south. There
is only one drawback to the smooth
working of these projected lines, and
that is the fact.that if carried out. their
construction will upset some of the
calculations of our valorous spoken
Youngstown neighbors, who seem to
have no doubt that they are entitled
to indicate the routes of all projected
Railroad Hues, and to monopolize the
convergence of every new line into
the very heart of the previous little
sooty 'Diamond" of that peerless city
of railroad ?pasms. See how indig
nant the chivalrous Courier grows
over a communication that appeared
in last week's Conxlitution, written by
oie of our citizens, and which being
a very interesting article on the sub
ject discussed, we transfer to our
columns. But first we will give the
reader a taste of the Courier' chow
chow, by way of an appetizer for the
solids that follow. It agonizes thus :
-Pslanllle B. U. A long as any project,
set on foot for the benefit of her more pros
perous neighbors, seems to .hang fire the
Warren people keep silent, and fully illus
trate the seuUhnes of tne seinsh. Her
Capitalists are Dot enongh interested In the
coal fields of the Valley to"baild a train way,
yet when the northern towns, bordering on
the hike attempt to locate a road with coal
interests paramount, they. In a windy com
munication, attempt to show the availabili
ty of Warren as a a what? Why. aa a
dry goods box manufacturing point."'
Having thus furiously effervessed,
the Courier possibly feels easier.
The IiegUtcr, while equally solici
tous for the welfare of Youngstown,
is more teinjierate in tone than ila co
temporary. We quote from the Reg ti
ler: "The interest of one city In this Valley is
the lntei-eot of all, and If possible we should
anile with Warren and N lies in our efforts
to increase our facilities. This is the proper
line of action, and we are glad to see that
some of the citizens of Warren are begin
ning to perceive that by Joining ns in such
schemes, they will accomplish more than by
opposing us."
The Register errs in supposing there
is a sentiment of antagonism in War- j
ren to Young-sloven's prosperity. On
the contrary we think it can be easily
shown that Youngstown is largely in
debted to Warren capital for one of
its most important improvements,
we refer to the Hubbara Branch Road,
an euterprize that greatly stimulated
the growth and prosperty of that city.
The Register adds :
"An air line from Painesville to Youngs
town would carry to at road about two miles
from Warren, and the same distance from
Nile.-
"Still, we hope that a way will be found by
which the co-operation or Warren cxn be
secured to the project. The route after posing
north-east from Vienna, might be brought
in the direction of Warren, with a switch
for its freight traffic, so that that city would
secure the advantages of the road. The sub
ject is one requiring considerable study, and
we hope that the engineers of the route will
look into it with a full appreciation of the
co-operation and assistance of the citizens
of Warren."
We assure our coiemporary that it
cannot quiet Warren's Railroad aspi
rations with the liberal offer of a
"switch." This place will have a new
road through the coal fields, and will
not be deterred from that undertaking
by "air-line"' projects from other
points in the valley to the Lake. Our
first business is to build the road and
secure an independant means of
transit, after which other contemplat
ed roads will almost certainly gravi
tate to this point for connections.
This, together with other leading fea
tures of the subject, are intelligently
discussed in the article appended,
which it seems was called out as a re
joinder to an article we copied two
weeks since from the Painesville Tele
graph :
Editors Consolation :
I n"ticed in the last Cbboniclk an ar
ticle about our City, clipped from the
Painesville Telegraph, which on general
terms is well enough but referring to
railroad connections is so supremely
ridiculous that it deserves a passing no
tice. Hpeakingofthe Painesville and Youngs
town projected railroad line via Bristol
and Bacbnsburgh he says, "they (the
people of Warren), did hope our pro
posed road would diverge enough to touch
that point," &c The idea of a railroad
giiin some seven or ei-tht miles out of a
right line between two points and diverg
ing to a point immediately on the right
line, between those points is a kind of di
vergance ihat is hard for us to compre
hend. You have only to look at the map to
sue where the "divergance is, making
Chardon aud Youngstown points, Char
don being a common point for both lines.
Painesville and Ashtabula have agitated
the question of a road mainly to connect
with our Mahoning valley coal fields, and
to that end should have the cheapest and
best road as to grades and distance, that
can he found. Cur Youngstown neigh
bors commenced the agitation of a new
road, mainly to obtain cheap freights, in
Cla-e of the present high rates ubarged
v the Atlantic road.
This is all commendable, but to secure
such a road and such freights, it would
seem to me that the line of directness
and easy grades should first be sought,
then such a line connecting with it the
main developed business points. Points
that will most easily draw on to the geu
eral line the greatest number of healthy
leeders that will supply a business, not
easily diverted by new and rival lines.
If any one will" just look at the map of
the Reserve, such a line from Youngs
town to Paiiieavillo or Ashtabula is just
as manifest as the nose on a man's face.
Mr. Cass with the Pennsylvania Central,
has alreadv a road from Pittsburgh to
Youngstown. Painesville has s line
nearly bridged and graded to Chardon.
about 15 miles. Ashtabula lias a line
laid in the exact direction to Warren and
much of the grading done as far as Bris
tol. Take your map and strike a direct
line from chardon to Youustoiyn, aud
the centre of the business in Warren and
Xiles will not be found to vary one half
mile from that line. The Village of Far-mina-ton
and Thompson's corners in Mid
dlerield will foe directly on the line.
Striking the valley of Swine Crock, near
Uunuy&uurgii, you will pass t hrouh the
that the Vienna and Hubbard coal fields
will be lost siu-htnf.

The road from Warren to Sharon trill be
bu,u ndiIht) sbUbulaand Painesville
interests seek to avail themselves of that
connection, in a way to control it, t will
manifest itself in a common interest to se-
ki..
That being done Painesville and Ash
tabula will both secure shorter and better
lines for the Vienna and Hubbard coals
and command the whole Mahoning and
Shenango V allies with the Sew Lisbon
road. Let the Lawrence road be extend
ed to Warren, in connection with the
Painesville, Ashtabula and Sharon lines.
Youngstown by the Church Hill and
Lawrence roads, 'will then secure a good
connection with the Vienna coal fields, as
well as by that road, and the Warren and
Sharon road will reach the Hubbard coal
fields, or bv the building of hve miles or
road up Crab Creek Valley, will be able
to connect with coal roads now built, ex
tending to the Warren and Sharon lines,
thus giving them two roads to Vienna
and three to Hubbard. Girard and Niles
united will, in this way, by the Church
Hill and Lawrence roads,'tind a direct
line to the Vienna and Hubbard coal
fields.
It may be said this will no manifestly
affect the interests, of the Mahoning roads
that it will meet with overpowering op
position from ths t source.
In replv to that I can only say that,
that road" is leased for i9 yearn at a rate
giving the sUx-kboldorsarent with the
present sinking fund, equal to about
eight per cent. ir annum on its stocks,
bv a compairv that does not command
niiu-h of the public confidence r sytr.pa
thv, but w hich is realizing a net profit
over and above all expenses and rent of
from 15 to 20 per cent, per annum, and
bv no possible contincencv in the way
oi' com petition can the lessees fail to nioet
the rents, and no local interests snouiu
le allowed to sutler in order to favor that
monopoly.
I am a stock holder in that Mahoning
road, aud I court the competition, and if
bv the means here proposed it can be
made to sever the links between the At
lantic and Mahoning, I shall rejoice at it.
believing that then the okl Mahoning
may be welded to the general chain
without any diminution of rent, and
stand the brightest link in the chain.
I trust our Painesville friend will
study his Geography before again put
ting us out of the right line from Y'ounjrs
town to Painesville. I can assure them
that not so good and direct a line can be
built from Youngstown to Painesville as
via Warren, for which opinion I am
willing to submit to the instruments for
a decision. Iet these plans be carried
out, and we shall have a direct and con
tinuous road from Pittsburgh to the
Lake, united in one common interest.
A line we can hardly expect to obtain in
any other way, anil the lines here pro
posed are the shortest and best, connect
ing with the best harbors on the South
Shore of the Lake.

The Expulsion of the Bible.
At the late meeting on the Bible ques
tion, in Pike's Hall, the speakers openly
declared, with the applause of their aud
ience, that in the event of the removal of
the Bible from the schools they would re
peal the present State law on public edu
cation, and with willing hands tear down
the present school system. The time has
come for the fulfillment of Uiose brave
words the day of promise is at hand.
Religious tyranny in the schools went
out with the interdict of twenty-two hon
est members of the School Board against
Protestant worship ; let civil tyranny
meet the same deserved fate as soon as
possible.
This is the first successful Catholic as
sault against the present glorious Com
mon School System of Ohio. They furth
er demand that the Catholics of the State
shall draw pro rata from the co.nm.on
school fund, with lvhich money they
would establish sectarian schools under
the absolute control of their own denom
ination. Thus Jesuitism is ever intrigue
ing, and priestcraft ever seeking to main
tain a predominance over the minds of
men, to educate the youth in sectarian
prejudice and establish them in the nar
row ways of bigotry. This question
must soon be squarely met by the Ameri
can people.
[For the Chronicle.]
Drinking is Healthful.
Almost every dav, in my walks among
the intemperate, I find persons of un
doubted candor and apparently good
judgment, who aver, from their own ex
perience, tliat the drinking of alcoholic
leverages is healthful or at least, not in
jurious. "To be sure," he 8ays,"I might
make a hog of myself by d'rinking too
much ; but if I keep within bounds, it
does me good to drin k ; I feel better after
I get my regular drink ; I can endure
more physical exertion; my mind is
more active, and as a consequence, I am
much better fitted to cope with the world
than I would be without the stimulant.
That it is good for my body, you can see
for yourself. Look at me ! am I not in
good condition T My lace, my arms, my
bodv. all perfectly plump and sound.
Show me a temperance man in any bet
ter order physically, if you can t I have
used stimulants for a long time, and I
think I know by this time whether it is
hurtful to tne or not. Do you think I
would drink 1 it hurt me, as you temper
ance men say it does every one that
drinks T I am' ready to admit that alcohol
does seem to injure some men who nev
er take too much; but I guess if the
truth were kno n, you would find that
there is some other cause for their ill
condition, or perhaps they drink at im
proper times,"
Xow, Chroxicle, the above specimen
ia not fancy work, but a reality of fre
quent occurrence ; and I am charitable
enough to believe that man j who make
such declarations believe them sincerely ;
yet it is hard for non-drinkers to under
stand how tipplers can be so blind, for
surely they are, when facts like the fol
lowing from the Chicago Advance, are of
dailv occurrence. "A merchant prince'
of New Y'ork a portly six-looter of
great manly beauty, who never dined
without his'brandy and water, nor went
to bed without a terrapin or oyster sup
per, and who was never known to be
drunk, died ot chronic diarrhosa a com
mon end of those who are never intoxi
cated and never out of liquor. Hall's
Journal of Health gives this account of
bis death ; Months before he died he
was a year in dying he could eat noth
ing without great distress, and at death
the whole alimentary canal was a mass
of disease 1 in the midst of his millions
he died of inanition (starvation). That
is not the half, reader. He bad been a
steady drinker, a daily drinker, for
twenty-eight years. Scrofula has been
eating up one daughter for fifteen years ;
another is in the mad-house ; the third
and fourth were of unearthly beauty ;
there was a kind of grandeur in that beau
tv; but they blighted and faded, and
laded into heaven we trusts in their
sweet teens ; another is tottering on the
verge of the grave, and only one is left,
with all the senses, and each of them is
weak as water."
Another cae given by ir. Hall ; rA
gentleman of thirty-five was sitting on a
chair, with no specially critical symp
toms present ; still he was known to be
a 'dissipated young man.' He rose, ran
about fifty feet, fell down and died. The
whole covering of the brain wi thicken
ed, its cavities were filled with a fluid
that 'did not belong- to it, enough to kill a
half dozen men with apoplexy ; a great
portion of one lung was in a state ot gan
grene, ana nearly ail uie otner was nam
ened and useless ; blood and yellow mat
ter plastered the Inner covering of the
1uiik6, while angry red patches of infla-
mation were scatterea siong me wuoie
alimentary canal. Why, there was
enough of death in that one man's body
to have killed forty men."' The dootor
who talks about guzzling liquor every
day being 'healthy,' is a perfect disgrace
to the medical name, and ought to be
turned out to break rock for the term of
his natural life, at a shilling a day, and
find himself.

learn that the term now drawing to a

corresponding one of last year. A large
number of new pupils from the citv and
from distant points are in attendance,
and the prospects for the coming term
are excellent. The generous outlay of
the Trustees during the past summer Is
meeting with a hearty response. The
buildings were never In better condition,
and the institution never stood higher in
popular esteem. The College is an honor
to Pittsburgh and has gained for it an
enviable reputation as a place for the
oducation of young ladies. Its excellent
and well furnished buildings, large and
accomplished Faculty, and its superior
facilites for imparting a thorough, solid
and ornamental education ; as well as its
excellent discipline and high moral tone,
commend it to all who have daughters to

Country and City Papers.
We are so often asked why we cannot
afford our paper at the same price as the
citv Weeklies, in which you get less ad
vertisements and inure reading, that we
copy for their information, the following
from the Conneautville Record, which is
a fair explanation of the difierenco be
tween the country and city papers:
THE HOME PAPER.
As the time is approaching when onr
country friends make their arrangements
for reading matter lor the new year, we
take occasion to say a few plain words on
a subject of importance, at least to us. In
starting out we insist that every family
should have their home journal, and
where circumstances will admit, should
also take a tint class city weekly, as it is
impossible with the limited space at his
command for the country editor to even
briefly notice all important event as they
transpire.
THE CHEAP WEEKLY.
The principal argument used in Civor
of the city weekly is its cheapness, only
$1.50 or J 1.75 a year, in clubs even less,
while the country paper, not as large
either, costs fi or S 50. Without stop
ping to examine if there be any cause
for this difference in price, some person
at each Poatotlice at once sets out to get
up a club for the city weekly.
THE DIFFERENCE.
Now lot us see how it is that the city
papers are afforded at such low rates, for
their rates are very low, and furnish
reading material that in any other shape
would cost ten times as much. The rea
son is simply this: Outside of the cost
of white paper, ink and mailing, the city
weeklies cost the city publishers nothing:
while the entire cost of type setting, press
work, paper, ink, mailing, oll'n-e rent,
fuel, etc., is added to the cost of the coun
try publisher's paper. The type is all set
up and paid for on the daily pajx-r of the
city publisher, and it is merely transfer
red to the weekly, while the pressman be
ing hired by the week, receives nothing
extra on the weekly ! so that all the city
printer receives above the first cost of
white paper, ink and mailing, is so much
clear gain, and he can therefore mako
more money by furnishing bis paper as
low as il.25 than the country publisher
at
ANOTHER ITEM.
Again the city publisher issues from
ten to one hundred thousand copies of his
paper weekly, while the country publish
er counts his subscribers at between one
and two thousand only, his sheet being
considered as in a very flourishing condi
tion if its circulation" conies within five
hundred of the latter figures. Ten cents
profit on each yearly subscriber gives the
city publisher's handsome income, while
the same profit on the country publish
er's list would not pay his rent. The
country publisner is paid just when it is
most convenient for the subscriber, and
in altogether too frequent instances it
never happens to be convenient ; the
city publisher receives his pay in advance
has no bad debts, and has h is money to
work on during the year. His advertis
ing counts him from one to two dollars
per line, the country publisher is consid
ered very "hard in the mouth" if he
charges two dollars for a 20 line vendue.
We might goon and fill the column with
comparisons of a similar character, but
it is useless.
BE FAIR ABOUT IT.
We only ask our friends, when they
hear their neighbors who borrow their
Record, complaining because it costs so
much and they can get a city paper so
much cheaper, to just set them thinking
on the facts stated above. Also ask them
when they want a marriage or death no
tice published, why they don't send it to
their city paper ; turn about is fair play
you know, and it's a poor rule that won't
work both ways. e don't offer heavy
premiums for new subscribers, we can't
afford to do so. In order to give our
readers a paper worthy of their support,
we can't throw money away in that shape,
our subscription price being as low as can
be afforded. We want all the new sub
scribers we can get, and will feel duly
thankful to our friends for any efforts in
our behalf which they mavsee tit to make,
but we find it impossible to give them
all gold watches, sewing machines or shot
guns for their services.
FINALLY.
The man whose spirit in favor of
supporting his home paper, is so weak
that it surrenders for fifty cents a year,
should be thankful that' many of his
neighbors have more liberal ideas, or very
few of the present county weeklies could
live at all. Live and let live, and don't
try to starve your home paper.
The Ashtabula Sentinel adds the re
mark that though the advertisements in
a country paper, are a valuable source of
income to the publisher, they are also
the most valuable to the subscriber, in
proportion to the space they occupy, of
all the local matter in the paper. They
convey information in the most concise
manner, and that of a kind that is only
to be obtained in advertisements.
Good Templars!
You are aware that our R. W. Grand
Lodge, at its last session, passed a reso
lution requiring Subordinate Lodges to
vote this month, (Nov.) upon the ques
tion of retaining or abolishing the De
grees of Fidelity and Charity ; and that
the most reasonable, aud only Just plea
for the abolishing of the Degrees, is that
some good menilers of Subordinate
Lodges are debarred from some of the
offices of the Lodges, by reason of not
having the Degrees. Now, believing
that very few of our Degree member
who love the Truth, will willingly part
with them, and yet would gladly accom
modate those who differ with "them, I
confidently recommend the following
resolution passed by the Grand Lodge
of the State of N. Y". at its last session,
for our example, to wit 1
"Resolved, That this Grand Lodge rec
ommend that the degree work lie not
abolished in our Order, but that the De
gree Temple be organized as a higher
Order; and that the taking of degrees le
not a prerequisire to holding of office in
subordinate Lodges."
Let us follow this plan, and retain the
Degrees tlte iije or our Order.

The bark Xaomi was lost on the lake,
Nov. 4th, near Manistee, Michigan. The
vessel struck bottom during the gale,
and water soon rushed In, driving all 011
board to the roof of the cabin,' where
they were exposed to the fury of the
wind and waves. Captain Carpenter
fastened himself and wile to a mast. A
sailor, at the Captain's request, set out to
swim ashore, but his strength gave out
and he was drowned. The boats having
been washed away no means of escape
seemed attainable. On the next day,
however. Captain Calaway.of the schoon
er Toledo, with a number of othor vol
unteers, took a boat and put out from
Manistee to the wreck, though with great
peril to themselves, the boat sometimes
filling. Reaching the bark, they found
the captain's wife dead from exposure,
and the captain b&rely aliru. After two
or three trips they succeeded in rescuing
the rest of ths crew, seven in number,
but the captain had died before they could
take him off, and two bodies were left on
the wreck, which soon went to pieces.
The rescued men were nearly dead, from
cold, but were finally revived.
Captain Carpenter' and wife lived in
Painesville, and were muuh respected
citizens.

A Railroad War In Prospect.
Considerable excitement was created
among railroad men in Cleveland, last
week, by the presence of Jay Gould and
Mcllenry and a number Df others inter
ested in the Krie and Atlantic and Great
Western roads. Negotiations were car
ried on all day, and although private,
yet enough is known to justify the state
ment that they were of a highly bellig
erent character. It is understood that
Mcllenry was there to commence legal
proceedings to obtain possession of the
Atlantic and Great Western, owing to
the failure of the Erie to comply with
the terms of the lease, and heavy dama
ges are involved. It is given out that
Gould and his Erie friends have fail
ed to satisfy the English stockholders
or to eflect a com promise with Mcllenry,
and that the latter will commence legal
proceedings. It is asserted that Gould
and Fisk were badly hurt by gold oper
ations, and that they madowaronCorbin
and the Administration to conceal their
bankrupt condition. They tailed to pay
money due the Atlantic Jt Great Western
people, because they bad not the means,
and now their broad paug- line to the
West is likely to be gobbled up or de
stroyed by Mcllenry's interest.
The Atlantic and Great Western Railroad
and the Eric Gold Cornerers.
The Xew York Herald says: In view
of the faot that the parties who owned
the Atlantic and Great Western Railroad
and negotiated the lease or sale of it to
the Erie Railroad Company can get noth
ing from that company, and that the
interest on the bonds of the Atlantic aud
Great Western, which, by the terms of
the contract, was to be paid by the Erie
Railroad Company, remains unpaid, it
would seem that the great gold curnerers
have been all along lit a tight place.
Ktforls hava been made to put the Krio
in bankruptcy in consequence of not
paying up in acconliinoe wltti the con
tract, "and it is said Mr. Mcilonry, who
made the lcaso or sale of the Atlantic
and Great Western, has gone, or is about
going, to England in disgust to confer
with the other parties inlerestcd is
what course they can pursue to squeeze
something out of th Erie Company.
Was the gold corner operation made as"n
desperate and U-t ellbrt to save the two
great Erie Moguls from ruin T Had j
their a Hair a g.-.t into such a condition !
that their only hope was in some such I
desperate expedient? Thev are hanging
on now evidently by the skin of their
.-.-..1. -r-i -.. . - ... i . .
teeth. The anxious struirirle thev are
making through the courts to stave otT
payments to others and to make others
pay tlioi:; indh-ates a critical situation,
i'o all appearances the end has not been
reached yet, and we biill probably see a
crash before lonir.

Wright, ndlway commissioner of Ohio,
expressing his surprise that the commis
sioner should take advantage of an un
avoidable delay in sending in the aiiniml
reort of the Atlantic and Great Western
railway. But it is said that General
Wrisrht maintains his intemion of pros
ecuting the suit to which allusion has
lecn made, and of bringing new ones if
there is further delay.
Saturday's Cleveland Leader savs that
Mr. James Mi-Henry, on the part" of the
English bondholders of the Atlsntic roid.
has brought suit against the directors of
the Erie mil wav. its lessees. The suit
originates in the failure of the Erie com
pany to pay the interest on the tionds of
the Atlantic and Great Western railway,
whieh they contracted to do when they
leaded the road. The suit, however, is
brought upon a motion to remove Jav
Gould from the Receiver-ship of the At
lantic and Great Western, to which he
was appointed last spring, and thus to
take the road out of his hands. On the
other hand, Mr. Gould is endeavoring to
obtain an order from the court to sell the
road. The ablest counsel in northern
Ohio are retained on one side or the oth
er, Uulus P. Hannev, F. T. Backus, Ste
phenson Burk, W. S. C. Otis, John

OF THE
NINETEENTH CENTURY.
THIS wonderful negro boy. pianist, who la
attracting so much attention throughout
the country, was born In Georgia, blind
from bis birth, and wlthoutaray of ordinary
intelligence, yet he plays the most ditncolt
operatic pieces, not only brilliantly and
beautifully, but wltn all th taste, expres
sion, and feellngof the most distinguished
srtMla. When his mind became clouded and
the veil of darkness was drawn over his
eys.as 11 10 make amends Tor the Infliction
upon the poor negro boy. a flood of light was
poured Into his brain, and bis mind became
an opera of beauty, written by the hand of
God, in syllables of music, for the. delight of
the world. He is presented to the public, as
surpassing every tbing heretofore known aa
a musical phenomenon.
