Means of the Company.

AlCduG VI tlO OUupbuyt
Estimating the distance to be built by the
Union Pacific to be ,565 miles, the United States
Government issues its Six per cent Thirty year
Bonds to the Company as the road is finished at
the average rate of about S2S,250 per mile
amounting to $44 20S.000.
The Company is also permitted to issue its own
First Mortgage Bonds to equal amount and
at the same time, which by special Act of Con-
gress are made First Mortgage on the entire
ordinate to them.
The Government makes a donation of $500
acres of land to the mile amounting to 90 032 900
acres, estimated to be worth $50 900, 900, making
the total resources, exclusive of the capital,
$llS, 4l6.000 but the full value of the lands
cannot now be realized.
The authorized Capital Stock CT the Company
is one hundred million dollars, of which five
millions have already been paid in and of which
it is not supposed that more than twenty five
millions at most will be required
The cost of the road is estimated by competent
engineers to be about one hundred million dol
lars, exclusive of equipment.
Prospects for Business.
The Railroad connection between Omaha and
the East is now complete, and the earnings of the
Union Pacific on the sections already finished for
the first two weeks in May were $4,000 These
sectional earnings as the road progresses will
much more than pay the interest on the Com
pany's bonds, and the through business over the
whole line of railroad between the Atlantic and
Pacific must be immense.
Value and Security Of the Bonds.
The Company respectfully submit that the
above statement of facts fully demonstrates the
security of their Bonds, and as additional proof
they would suggest that the Bonds now offered
are less than ten million dollars on 5l7 miles OF
road, on which over twenty million dollars have
already been expended on $50 miles of this
road the cars are now running, and the remain
ing 1877 miles are nearly completed.
At the present rate of premium on Gold these
Bonds pay an annual interest on the present cost
of
Nine Per Cent.
and it is believed that on the completion of the
road, like the Government Bonds they will &c
above par. The Company intend to sell but q
limited amount at the present low rate, and re-
tain the right to advance the price at their option

TIE COURTEsIEs OF PARTIsANRY.-Our
readers remember the story about Judge
CHAsEs great wealth, acquired Gin four
years" while he was Secretary of War.
This story was put forth by the famous
editor and party politician Mr.. THURLow
WEED, formerly Of the Albany EUening
Journal, now of the New York Commercial
advertiser. 1t has been denounced in no
measured terms by more than one paper
Il falsehood ont of whole cloth. 1t has
been also positively asserted that Judge
CHASE "made no money directly or indi-
"rectlv by his influence as Secretary OF
"War." Mr.. WEED returns to the charge,
declaring that these denials, "by their
deliberate and impudent falsehood," fur
nish conclusive evidence Of the truth Of his
original assertion. He goes on to insinuate
that Mr.. CHASE made money through mani
pulations of United States bonds, ETC., by
lis son-in-law, Governor SPRAGUE, and by
JAY Cooke & Co., who divided with him.
These insinuations are, however, backed
by no fact or evidence; and the Tribune,
quoting them, says: "We quote these lies
"that their author may have the full ma
q" tional infamy for which he has labored
$50 successfully" Pretty severe but it
falls on al iron-clad. Were we a friend Of
Mr.. WEEDS, we would feel no concern for
him. He can't be hurt in this kind Of war :
All those people are Republicans"

FAMINE IN INDIA.-Or all the horrible
scenes Of famine of latter days, perhaps
those of British India for the last year are
the most painful and heartrending. The
famine has endured for more than year.
It has affected population Of 20,OOO,O 900,
and the deaths have been 100000. Some
districts have suffered more than others;
in the province Of Orissa at least one
fourth Of the inhabitants have died. The
browning act of famine has been part of
the history. CannibaliSm has been resort
cd to by starving people. a mother and
son were discovered making meal on the
body of the mothers dead infant. Nume-
rous instances Of devouring the dead are
mentioned. - have known no instance, !"
writes missionary from Balasore, "of the
" Hindoos eating dogs, or cats, or COWS !;
but they did eat their own children when
" dead" Living skeletons crawling to the
river to drink fell in from sheer exhaus-
ton and were drowned. Destitution ex-
tends over seventy-seyen thousand square
miles. Last year the Government and
private charity expended over $4,000, 900
Tor the relief Of the sufferers, and this
year the Government proposes to devote
sz'ooo 900 TO this object.

The King of Abyssinia.

DR.. JoHNsoN's pleasant story located IN
Abyssinia has given that land poctical
interest to the civilized world. Therefore
the strange circumstance that the K1ng OF
that country (THEoDoRE) had fallen IN love
with Queen VICTORIA of England, ana de-
rnanded her hand in marriage after Inc
death of Prince ALBERT, became matter
Of much more concern than if the ruler OF
any other savage nation had exhibited such
an absurd ambition. He made his suit with
great ardor; but the estimable Queen
positively, yet in the language Of diplo-
macy, rejected the prefer Of the royal
negro. He mean time had seized upon
some English residents, and informed the
Queen that he should hold them subject to
his own will and disposition until she re-
Tented. The British Government tried
persuasion-ofered presegts-and then
made threats-to secure the liberation of
the Queens unfortunate subjects, to no
purpose. Notwithstanding the difficulties
Of reaching Abyssinia, military expedi-
ton to punish the presumptuous African
and liberate the captives was projected by
the British Government as the last means
left them. But the composition Of this expe-
dition was the subject Of much reflection
to the great men Of war-whether Egyp-
tians or Sepoys, or what other sort of SOL
diers should be tried, was a question under
debate when the news comes las stated by
us yesterday that an instruction which
had been on foot some months in Abyssnla
had at last made such Roadway that THEo-
DoRE was separated from the British cap
tiyes and was surrounded by Instruction
lists. This was quite relief; but the fate OF
the "captives :" is yet not clear. 1t is hoped
they may escape. Their chance is de-
cidedly better.
THEODORE not only fails to get wife,
but may lose his kingdom. The story has
all the appearance of romance; but IS
painfully real to the " captives. Mrs. Ii.
BEEcHER STOWE might give us compa-
Mon for "Uncle Toms Cabin" in "Theo-
dore's Palace" The noble traits of the
African prince unfolding themselves in an
honorable ambition to become the spouse
of the greatest Of queens, and the crushed
affections of his savage breast, would be to
her themes of incompatible interest. Done
up in her style, it would make for her
more money than did "Uncle Toms
Cabin" The Duchess Of SUTHERLAND
would take many copies.

The DUNDERBURG.-The famous ram
Dunderburg, which was sold to the French
Government, made the passage from New
York to Cherbourg in the short time Of
fifteen days. This has astonished the
world for it was thought that she could
not make good speed in the voyage. She
is 37S feet long; 70 feet amidships; hold,
80 feet; she is pierced for % guns, and
carries, when fully armed, q battery of IS
guns, consisting Of l5-inch steel guns
and IA of ll-inch. She has two engines Of
nominal power of 1GOO-horse, and capa-
bic of working up to 5,0O0-cylinders, 100
inch, and As feet stroke. Her Shaft is %
inches in diameter. Her plating is forged
iron, 4 % inches thick, backed by 4 feet Of
solid wood. A letter in the Herald from
Cherbourg, speaking CT tho performances
of this powerful vessel at sea, says:
"The developments of this passage may
be stated as follows: She is the only iron
clad vessel of her class that has ever
crossed, or attempted to cross, the ocean
without convoy. Her remarkably short
passage stamps her as being without an
equal in point of speed by any navy in the
world. She has shown by her conduct in
a heavy sea-way that her battery can be
worked as easily as that of any frigate
afloat, and with greater degree of GER
tainty as regards effect. Constructed as a
ram, and for that purpose built solid from
the beak Of her PROV aft for distance Of
fifty feet, she has the power of throwing
her immense weight against an enemy at
the velocity of fourteen miles per hour. 1t
was computed by Admiral Goldsborough
that the shock sustained by a body on
impact with the Dunderberg, the ram hav-
ing speed of only ten knots an hour,
would be equal to the effect produced by
cannon-ball weighing 1000 tons and
moving at the ordinary initial velocity.
What vessel could withstand that shock
Nor has she this power without the means
of protecting herself from a similar assault
on the part Of an enemy for her ruddcr
and propeller are guarded by an overhang,
extending for a distance of twenty-five
feet abaft the stern-post, and capable Of
resisting an immense power
