that have been "spouted" here and
there all over the country At fifty cents
| on the dollar, having no market value
whatever, are nota safe basis for chr
rency-and this position appears quite
plausible, at leas.
At present, however, the State rail
road bonds are being rapidly turned
into currency, the auditor receiving
them at just such figures as the parties
ew they paid for them, which thus
far is from ninety-fve to ninety seven
cents on the dollar, the companies re-
ceivlng il payment the currency Is
sued upon them. This railroad
money!" as it is here termed, passes
readily among us thus far, aud ex-
change. in small amounts,on New York
can be procured with it s; but for any
amount Of gold or exchange it is utter
" refused even by those who arc the
principal instruments in putting it into
circulation. That this currency is TO
be short lived is readily admitted by
all but every person hopes to make
it answer their purpose, and be very
careful not to have any Of it on hand
when the crash comes.
There has been much excitement in
some quarters within the past few days
in consequence Of certain develop
ments in relation to the manner in
which our railroad affairs are managed
and the appearance Of a new class OF
operators on the stage.
A few days since, while the Board
OF Directors OF the Transit Company
were in session at st. Paul, Mis-, or
Miss. --, formerly, if not at pres
ent, Of Washington, arrived IN town,
and presented to the board claim
against the Transit Company, OF forty
three thousand dollars for services
rendered in getting the Land Grant
bill through Congress. The lady was
informed that her claim would not be
recognized, whereupon she employed
counsel, who were proceeding to sue
ont an Injunction restraining the Gov
ernor from issuing any more bonds to
the Transit Company, &c: She also
exhibited to her counsel copy of
private contract entered into between
the Directors OF that road and the con-
tractors, by which the contractors
agreed to pay back to certain of the
directors eight thousand dollars per
mile Of the amount they received from
the company.
Learning the course the fair claim
ANT was taking, and that she was pos
sessed Of such important papers and
secrets, the directors came to the "foot-
lights" and paid her ten thousand dol
lars in State railroad bonds.
In connection with the above-stated
fscts it should be known that an ex-
tensive change has recently been made
in the direction Of the company, seven
directors resigning, SO as togive certain
parties the entire control of the road.
In consideration of their resigning
simply, the seven directors received
two hundred thousand dollars in bonds
and half IN the bonds of the company.
l merely state the facts, leaving your
readers to draw their own conclusions
] may add however that our people
are quite puzzle to understand how
the railroad companies are going "to
deyelope the resources of the state"
by such application of the bonds voted
by them to build railroads with.
