hitherto declined to take any notice Of

founded and malicious charges which
have been made against them, at public
meetings held st Bennington and other
towns on tbe line of the Western Ver-

1t seems that there have been two cases OF
steamboat sinking this week-one the Dean
Richmond and the other the Connecticut. The
latter grounded between Albany and Troy on
Monday night and commenced to leak bad
ly. The water gained so rapidly that she ac-
tually sunk in eight feet OF water. She lay
there all that MI ght, and nearly all the next
day when the leak was temporarily stopped
and she proceeded on her way.
The Davenport Gazette speaks Of Mr.. James
Thompson, who came from Pennsylvania to
Scott county, Iowa, a dozen years ago, worth

half of which is under cultivation; the whole
will be next year. The land lies in Scott and
Cedar counties. The past year ne put under
cultivation 2,200 acres new land.

RAILROADS.&C. writer in the Richmond
Wing expresses the opinion that all the rail
roads and other internal improvements in Vir-
ginia will be sold out at no distant day under
the provisions of the bankrupt law. He says
that these improvements are hopelessly insol
vent that they pay neither dividends nor debts
to anybody, and never will be able to do so,
under present arrangements, to the satisfaction
or benefit of anybody They will, therefore,
he says, be compelled to pass into bankruptcy,
and be sold out to Northern capitalists at very
low figures. He thinks this will be vastly ben
e6oial to our people, and to all the creditors Of
the roads. (?) 1t will bring immense capital
population, and enterprise among U.s. and add
vastly to the value Of our roads and lands. (?)
The Wing expresses the opinion that such a
fate may not necessarily befall our railroads and
canals, end invites full discussion of the ques-
ton.
Our railroads and conals are certainly bank
rupt, but We hope they will not be forced into
bankruptcy by their stockholders or creditors.
By proper management they can be made, in a
few years, to work out Of their financial diff
culties, and be as profitable as any public works
in the North .-Lyuch. Rep.

The WARDROBE OF NAPOLEON IA Gu
rious letter of Napoleon l. has been brought to
light in the last volume of his correspondence
just published. 1t is addressed under date
August, 1911, to Gen. Duroc, grand marshal
of his palace and mstructs him to act for the
time as the keeper of the imperial wardrobe.
and to order a fresh supply Of the articles re-
quired by the emperor. A list in full in the
emperor's own hand is annexed. The emperor
orders his outfit in full detail-the number Of
articles, the price, and the dates Of delivering
stated with astonishing minuteness. 1t is like
an auctioneer's inventory. lmprimis: Two
grenader's and two chasseur's coats with epau
let's, each to cost ETA S., but each must last
three years; two hunting coats, one for cours-
ing and for shooting, each EFT two frock coats,
price e9 each four dozen pair of breeches and
the same number white waistcoats, to cost
Gl43, all likewise to last three years. Then
we havethe undertaking Probably the ex-
igences of campaigning made the luxury OF a
laundress somewhat rare, for the emperor Or
ders, among other things, four dozen flannel
vests, four dozen shirts, and the same number
Of handkerchiefs to be worn at the rate Of one
a week, but to last three years; two dozen
cravats, one fortnight, to last six years, and
dozen black stocks, one month. Then he
orders boots and shoes, and four hats per an
mum, the total Of the little bill being about
1865 1t is plain that the great emperor
treated the fashions as Of very little account.
What would be thought nova days of man
who should order cravats to last six years?
