A report, just laii before the Postmaster.
General by Messrs. II. s. Sandford, j. III. Wade,
and William Orton, the Presidents of the Ameri-
can, Western Union, and United States Telegraph
Companies, gives an account OF the gradual de-
velopment and experience of these three great
concerns, representing nearly the whole tele
graph interest in the United States, full of in
structive facts and fgures-showing the amount
OF their capital the cost of construction of their
lines; the amount of business transacted, and
the number OF stockholders and persons en-
ployed; the amount OF their gross and net earn
ings, and other valuable information.

its lines to the Pacific, project long deemed i'm

EXTENT OF THE LINES.
The length of wire owned by the Western
Union Telegraph Company is no less than forty
four thousand, by the United States sixteen
thousand, and by the American Telegraph
Company thirty thousand miles. These figures
disclose the fact that the Western Union and
United States Companies, although they repre-
sent together less than twice the number of
miles OF wire owned by the American Company,
they have stock out equal 10 just seven times
the capital OF the latter. The natural inference
is that the stock OF the American Company rests
on far more established basis than that of its
great Western ally. 1t can be easily understood
from the figures what enormous fortunes the
original owners of the Western Union must have
realized out OF its excessive issue OF stock.

A Rare Gem of Art.

Elder j. II. PARMeLEE, of this city, ha the general
agency for one of the most valuable, and beautiful
works of Art that has been offered to the public
This is a Photograph of Pen-Drawing, by Mr.. Del
win F. Brown, entitled the Lords Prayer. We can
not better give our re lers idea of the Picture
than by copying the following extract from the Ar
lists PREDATORY notice.
1T was the Authors conception to make the
Lords Prayer framework on which to hang an APP
proprate embodiment of the sacred ideas it suggests
or contains to make Art preach sermon there
from; and within the compass of single picture,
gather in and wildly present all of pictorial ustTa-
ton that might aid the mind to the highest appreci
alton of the Prayer ITSELF and at the same time to
body forth the beautiful life of its Divine Author in
the highest forms that Art in the service of religion
has created. The words copied are, or should be,
the most familiar, earliest learned and most beloved
in the language He believes such work calculated
to exert an elevating influence on the mind and
heart and, a Family Picture, he hopes it may
! prove acceptable and useful" SIS.
The picture is 30 by 35 inches, and embraces the
words oftheLord's Prayer in letters Of original and
elaborate design the bust of our Savior-the central
fgure-and of his twelve Apostles also beautiful
copies of the of the worlds choicest gems of
Christian Art, by the great Maaters-tiye from
Raphaels most celebrated designs, to wit: The ma
tivity Childhood Baptism and Descent of the Holy
Spirit Sermon on the Mount; TRANSPORTATION Res
direction and Ascension One hundred and fifteen
heads are embraced in the picture.
To say that this is beautiful Picture, ornament
for the paro is not to express Its leading feature
is study-an art study that you never tire of.

We told our readers to look outfor BRowN's new
advertisement, but that hardly necessary, for it
speaks for itself 1t will hardly be overlooked. Con-
spicuous is the advertisement it is not more so
than the Stock of Goods Mr.. Brown offers for his
customers this Spring. For quantity, quality, and
style ii will compare favorably with any metropol-
tan stock. Those French Percales, New Style of
Dress Goods, are the admiration OF everybody while
those genuine Irish Poplns, at half they we're sold
for last year, cannot fail topease the most fasdous
Other Dress Goods are offered at the same reduced
rates.
Brown is opposed to all combinations, whether
against the people the printers, and is bound to
bring doaOp The prices to legitimate standard in
spits of them. The people should sustain him in
this praisworthy object In conclusion we will mere
" say-look at the advertisements and remember that
what Brown promises he performs Look through
our advertising columns and see if anybody offers
greater inducements.
