Or break my ruined husbands chains.

And make him what he was before?
Wash from his face the brutal stain

Which madness, crime and misery brings
How can We dry the rivers course,
Unless ye stop its rising springs?

Great National Railway across
the Continen

Their line will extend from Sacramento
California, across the Sierra Nevadas to tn,
California State line, traversing the rich
est and most pOpuiOus section Ol
California, and thence through the great
mining regions OF the Territories
to the vicinity of Salt Lake City.
1t forms the sole Western link of the
only route to the Pacific which is adopted
by Congress and aided by the the rs
sue of United States Bonds.
Their road is already completed, equipped
and running for "a miles from Sacramento
to within IL miles of the summit of the
Sierras, and large amount of the work OF
Grading, Tunnelling, &C., beyond that point
has been accomplished.
The First Mortgage Bonds of this
Company afford unusual inducements Of
Safety and Profit to Investors for the fol.
lowing among other reasons, viz.
First The rate of Interest is Six per Cent.
in Gold, payable semi annually in the
City of New York.
Second. The Principal is payable in Gold
at maturity.
1bGTd.-The cost of the Bonds, Ninety Five
per cent, and accrued interest," is Ten per
cent, less than that of the cheapest Six
Per Cent. Gold Bearing Bonds of the
Government.
F0urtb.-The United States Government
provides nearly half the amount necessa-
ry to build the entire road, and looks
mainly to a small percentage on the fu-
ture traffic for repayment.
Fittb.-Owing to this liberal provision, ac-
companied with extensive grants of Pub
lie Lands, by which the Government fos-
tiers this great national enterprise, its sue
cess is rendered certain; and its financial
stability is altogether independent of the
contingencies which attend ordinary Rail
road enterprises.
SjGth The Security of its First Mortgage
Bonds is therefore ample, and their char
acter for safety and reliability is equalled
only by that of the obligations of the Gov.

Few things in the course of my life, had

bad enough to find that ones estimate OF a

too generous; but to convict that friend, on
his own confession, of the systematic robbery

distressing in the last degree 1t so hap
pened that, almost from the cradle, Miss
Sympeson had shown herself one of my
kindest and most attached friends. My
bovhood had been literally starred with her
gifts and benefits. In return, loved the
gentle hearted lady, and, though did not
invariably adopt the advice it was her pas

the only serious misunderstanding that had
ever risen between US, was caused by my

this Notifying transformation, and turned

The following is q brief and truth
ful sketch of the history of Johnny
Steele ''the young oil prince OF Venan-
g5 county," whose farm (the Steele
farml on Oil Greek was recently sold
for taxes due the Government. John
ny Steele was the adopted son of q
widow named McCliutock, who lived
on farm in Vcnango county Pennsyl-
vania.
In 1863 oil was struck on her farm
and she derived daily income of $1,000
at the time Of her death, which occur
red in 1864. By the will all her prop
erty was left to Steele, then aboat
twenty years of age. In the iron safe
where the old lady kept her money
was found'Sl00 900, thirds of the
"a AMOUNT in grecnbaclls and the balance
in gold. Mrs McCihtock was hardly
cold in her coffir before young Steele
was surrounded by u set of vampires,
whoclung to him as long as he had d
dollar remaining The young mil
lionaire's head was turned by his good
fortune, anu he was VI IuS IMPRESSION
that his money would accumulate too
rapidly unless il was actually thrown
away, and throw il away he did
Wine, women, horses, faro and gen.
ersl debauchery soon made a wreck
Of that princcly fortune, and in twen.
ty months Johnny Steele sqiandered
two millions of dollars. Hon. John
Morrisey, Member of Congress, went
through" him at faro TO the amount of
100000 in two nights. He bought
high priced turn outs, and after dri.
wing around an hour or two, gave
them away; equipped large minstrel
troupe and presented each member
with diamond pin and ring, and kept
about him beside two or three men
who were robbng him day by day
He is now filing the honorable posi-
ton of door-keeper for Skitf & Gay
lords Minstrcs, the company hc or.
