AMERICAN SECURITIES HELD Abroad
The following is from the last number OF
the Financial Chronicle: "The issue Of
the fiye-twenties of 1852 is S5l4, 100000 !;
and from the extreme scarcity OF those
bonds it is very generally conceded that
they are nearly all held abroad. Or the
skies Of 1851 there are 1888, 200, 900 out
standing, which also are principally III the
hands Of foreigners. The preference for
ten-forties, on account of the specific pledge
for the payment of the principal in gold,
cannot have drawn out of the country less
than S25, 100000 Of those bonds; while the
minor amounts of all other issues COM
bined cannot be estimated at less than $780,
900, 900. So that the total amount Of United
States bonds held abroad must be very
nearly 500, 100000, or possibly more.
mot SOL Putting together, then, the fore
going items, we have the following result as
the amount of all kinds Of American secu-
rites held in Europe: United States bonds,
$500 600, 600; sterling bonds issued by
railroad companies, s33,5OO,OoO; sterling
bonds issued by canal and water conpa-
MES, SIS, 100000; dollar bonds OF railroad
and other companies, $50, 100000; railroad
stocks, $50 100000 State stocks, $50, OOO,-
900: municipal and miscellaneous stocks,
$40 .00O. 900. Total estimated amount OF
American securities held abroad, ss3s, 400
900.

THE LOST VIRGINIANs-A FAMILY DOOM
ED TO CEAsELEss WANDERINGs.-There is
now in this city, says the Louisville Courier,
one Of the most remarkable families OF
which the records of the world give ac-
count, and their history is perhaps one Of
the strangest that ever excited the curiosity
or sympathy of humanity. They are seven
in number, and so far as anythingis known
of them, they have been wanderers ever
since the close Of the war, their never
ceasing tramp taking them to all parts OF
the South, but never leading them to the
place they seek-the haven OF rest which
they yet look forward to with hopeful
eye. They were here about year ago, the
same wretched, ragged, forlorn, but appa-
rently contented group, but they were then
going to Missouri; now they are going to
Indiana, they say.
The discovery Of their second prese nee
here was made last night about 10 O'CLOCK
by officers Martin and McElvogue, OF the
Metropolitan police. The two officers were
sent for at that hour with the request that
they should go to the corner Of Fourth and
Market streets to remove some VagrantS
who were blocking up the way. On reach
ing the spot the officers discovered lying
directly across the sidewalk, where they
had settled for nights sleep, the whole
family of seven-two women, three li1tle
girls, boy, and child about sixteen
months old. 1t was sad sight, ana one
that might have drawn tears from the most
Indifferent, though the wretched, homeless
wanderers seemed to little realize their con-
dition. With scarcely any clothlng-ano
the little they were but filthy rags anu
patches-their feet bare and shoeless, they
were sleeping upon the hard paVemen. as
soundly as though it had been OF GOWN
Their sole possessions we're made up OF
couple of tin cups, couple OF TIN oucke's'
and some old quilts. The Oldest woman
appeared to be about forty years OF age
and the others were all believed to be her
children.
Their story this time was quite different
from that of year ago, when they we're
going to Missouri. They stated that they
were Virginians, whose homes had been
destroyed in the war. 1t appeared that
the young woman had been rebel soldier 3
bride, and that her husband had fallen on
the battlefield. They had travelled all ne
way from Virginia on foot, begging the 1904
that they ate, and sleeping upon the ground
when they could get no shelter. they hao
been on the road for months, and SAID they
were journeying toward indianapolis, a
little beyond which city they claimed 10 nave
some relatives they hoped would ala .hem'
One Of the little girls had two thumos Oh
her right hand. and the youngest seemeo
very delicate and sickly.
Not knowing what else to do with them,
and being obliged to give them some sort OF
shelter, the officers took them 10 ,he s LEV ~
street station-house and left them ior INC
nioht.

The RELIGIOUS MEETING AT JOHN AL
LENS DANcE-HoUsE.-Ne1o York, Septem-
Der 1.-THE freshest feature of the Water
street prayer-meeting is the appearance OF
the famous /" Boston Corbett on the scene
as leader. This morning he led in prayer
with great JUNCTION. Many people went down
othe dance house quite as anxious tosee him
apparently as John Allen. The latter does
not relish this visitation from Corbett, as 1t
threatens to draw attention from himself,
and to make Corbett, and not himself, the
lion of the place. The crowd in front OF
the house this afternoon was SO dense as al
times to impede travel. 49,
Another incident of the proceedings was
an unofficial announcement by Mrs. Allen
Johns wife) that she is Roman Catholic,
and intends to remain one. Her husband,
she SAYS. can be what he likes-Presbyte-
| rian, Methodist, or anything else-but for
her part she is not going to change her re-
ligion to oblige any missionaries. This
statement is calculated to create some con-
fusion in the camp:
The clersymen who participated in the
exercises were Rev. J. E. Bell, Rev. a. Z.
Graves Of Boston, Rev. Mr.. Woodruff, and
Rev. Mr.. Arnold of the Howard Mission.
The excitement is spreading to places OF
dubious resort in the vicinity. This morn
ing No. 374 Catharine stIeet, kept by the
notorious Tommy" MADDEN, was opened
for prayer. Hadden himself stood at the
door and made his visitors welcome. Here
the services were conducted by Rev. Mr.
Allen Johns brother), Rev. W. c. Van,
meter, and Rev. Mr.. Ward. " Tommy >
was in his shirt sleeves. He has not sc

We are taxed enough to keep the Govern

nue. imposed by the Federal Government,
and collected from the people, is stolen be-
fore it reaches the treasury, and the other
half is squandered by Congress in schemes

A message from the Senate announced
the passage of Senate bill No. 10, to amend
section one OF an act entitled an act to re-
strain from running at large certain ami

and asked the concurrence of the House
therein. Read the first time.
Also Senate bill No. So, to authorize the

of Eaton township. Lorain county, to levy

in said township. Read the first time.
SECOND READING.
Six bills were read a second time and re-
ferred to their appropriate committees.
THIRD READING.
House bill. to provide for the adjustment
and payment of claims tor damages grow
ing out of the Morgan raid through Ohio
in the year 1868. was read third time; and
Mr.. COCKERILL proceeded to explain
the nature of the claims covered by the
pending bill. The total amount of losses
reported by the commission appointed
to ascertain the losses incurred by>that raid
were S576,625. He regarded these claims
as lust. and believed they ought to be
paid. He believed Ohio owed it to her
citizens to see that justice should be done
in the matter. These injuries had been
inflicted on over thirty counties of the
state. and it was right they should be paid.
Mr.. WELSH said the claim ought to be
carefully examined before acting. 1t was
no new thing in the history of war
Such claims had often been adjudicated
before in the history of this country. This
Fire lands" in the Western Reserve were
an example of the kind. A large number
of horses and other property were carried
away by Morgan and his men. The worn
out horses left by him were soon gathered
up by officers detailed by the Government,
and sold, SO that the citizens lost all. This
bill is intended to indemnify those who thus
suffered. These people had done all they
were required to do to carry on the war.
And it was but right they should be paid
for :.the losses sustained by them in the
Morgan raid. Many of these people had
their last horse taken by Morgan and his
men, while they were at the front fighting,
and their families are now suffering in
