ted villages of over two thousand inhab-
itants to locate and construct local sew

n dollar per day for each additional
day in the same case, and requiring
the party demanding the jury to depos-
it with Justice six dollars as security
for the jurors fees.
The Senate adjourned at noon until
Monday at ten o'clock A. NJ.
No business was transacted of gen.
eral or important character, and at
noon the House adjourned till Monday

tors no business of Importance was

ern Railroad.
Its Business and Prospects

Its Business and Prospects,
Mr. James McHenry has issued q cir
cular reviewing the history of this en-
terprise and giving a brief statement of
of its present business and its prospects
in the future. We quote as follows:
The results of the workings of the
line have justified these labors and ex-
penditures. In the first year of its open
ing the receipts have exceeded S5,000,-
900. In 1866 the receipt will be near
ly 5000, 900, and with the d~eVelope-
ment and additional sources of traffic
now rapidly opening up, it Is not too
much to estimate the returns st $1,000
600 and all the main lines of railway
in America have trebled their receipts
in five or six years. 1t is not unreasen-
able to anticipate that by 1872 the At
lantic and Great Western will earn
SI5, 000, 000, or 93, Zoo, 900 sterling with
out any important increase of capital.
During the present month, the Consol-
idated Freight line through from New
York to st. Louis, in connection with
Erie and the Ohio and Mississippi Rail-
ways will commence running. In Feb
rusry the route will be open from
Cleveland to Pittsburg, one-half the
mileage belonging to the Atlantic and
Great Western. During the summer
direct communication will be estab-
lished with Buffalo, and the completion
of the New Lisbon Extension will bring
the railway into close connection with
the great coal fields of Ohio.
And yet, after accomplishing so much,
with prospects so brilliant, and sltho'
every promise made TO the public has
been faithfully fulilled-every liability
for coupons promptly met-the securi-
ties of the Atlantic and Great Western
Railway are at prices as speculative as if
dividends were doubtful for many
years. This is not the response the COM
pany had righs to expect from so
much labor and good faith.
Letters are daily received, almost
without exception kind in their tone,
and expressing confidence, but natur-
ally very anxious as to the great tall
in quotations. l INTERESTINGLY an
swer that there is nothing in the posi-
ton of the railway to warrant Gepreci-
alton, but it has many rivals, and some
interruptions enemies, who for months
have been organizing schemes to de-
preciate bonds and debeniures in the
market. and there are many unscru-
pulous parsons who for their OWL pur-
poses circulate rumoFs and statements
In connection with loans taken Up in
London and elsewhere, which are Ell
Their mere ribaldry or positively false.
In America, by the end of January,
there will be no floating debts, and IN
Europe all the loans are covered by Its
share capital rerserved for that pur-
pose, and are backing" to the bonds
and debentpres, which remain a first
charge.
Western Reserve chronicle. [volume] (Warren, Ohio) 1855-1921, 1867-02-06
The Contraction that LIS GO
ing On.

The financial editor of the Chicago
Republican, writes as follows: Capitalists
and bankers sill over the country are pur-
suing the same policy of contraction
which Secretary McCulloch has inaugur-
ated. So far as the banks are concerned,
this is a matter of necessity, and outside
capitalists are governed by the same poll
CIV. Ofcourse all this reyerts on trade
and commerce; and in the West, where
the banking is limited, the pressure is un-
usually severe. At the same time the
stocks Of b~readstufs are much lighter than
u sual, and that of provisions, though heaV-
Ter than last year, is not considered be-
yond the capacity of the country. In
this way, the chief Sufferers by the pres
ent stagnation in trade are the merchants
and the manufacturers. The farmers, as
a general thing, are in easy circumstances
but they are unwilling TO sell their gov
eminent securities to pay their debts, and
collections are therefore slow, and will
probably continue 50 till a better financial
policy is inaugurated."
Western Reserve chronicle. [volume] (Warren, Ohio) 1855-1921, 1867-02-06

The New York Herald says that if the
decisions of the Supreme Court are all
tending to the conclusion that the late
war for the Union was not only 3 failure,
but a blunder, which has left Us constitu-
tionaIy just where we stood the year be-
fore the war, we have only 10 reconstruct
the court in order 10 reserve these decis-
ions and to secure such interpretations of
the constitution as will proclaim the great
fixed fac. that the war for the Union was
neither q blunder nor a failure, but a great
revolution, the issues of which have be-
come the constitution to the Supreme
Court.

Mr.. johnson lodged the suffrage ques-
ton. The bill amending tine acts organi-
zing the several Territories, comforting
suffrage therein without regard to race or
Color. has become a law without the Pres
idents approval 1t was presented to him
on the 18th inst, and, as he did not re-
turned-it within the ten days allowed by
the Constitution after it has been presen-
ted, it has become q law in like manner
as if he had signed it. The bill repeal
ing the amnesty and pardon authority
given to the President became a law in a
similar way.
