The LEWIS KIDNAPPING CAsE.-As we re-.
marked yesterday in regard to this case, Mr..
Lewis appears to have suffered very much from
severe case of mother-in-law. The testimony

his sick wife, he arose to get something and

his wife saw the proceeding and moved to the

side. He afterwards informed his friend and
counsel, Mr.. Bgelow, how he had been insult
ed and treated, and was advised not to stay at
the house any longer. On the 18th of April.
at an interview with his wife, he found that
Mrs. Allen was listening in the hall, and in
vited her to listen inside rather than in the
manner she was doing outside the door. AS
she entered he informed her that a reconcilia-
ton had taken place between himself and
wife, "At this she Ito use the doctors own

down the curses of Almighty God upon me-

duty to oppose it; we went on to collect our
proofs, and notified the Court of our opposi-

number of weeks, though no serious result
was anticipated. DR.. Stow was a native of
New Hampshire, and for an uninterrupted Pc
riod of thrty-five years sustained pastoral
relation in Boston, resigning his last parish in
1867 to enter upon the missionary work. He
was an earnest pastor and his labors were at
tended with marked success, and in point of
mental ability he had few superiors in the de-
nomination. His age was 68 wears.

Mr.. STANToN.-The Washington papers of
Saturday morning are draped in mourning
and the New York journals contain lengthy
obituaries on the deceased ex-Secretary. The
Sun says that few persons outside the circle
of Mr.. Stanton's most intimate friends are
aware of the fact that proposition was made
soon after his retirement from Office to give
him purse of $4,000 This project it SAYS
was conceived by some wealthy merchants at
private dinner party in New York, and the
full amount was raised on The spot. The next
question was how to induce Mr.. Stanton to
accept the gift. Judge Perrepont was deput-
ed to execute the delicate mission. He &C.
cordingly went to Washington, and first
broached the subject to Mrs. Stanton who re-
would receive the present, but promised to
mention it to him the first favorable opportu-
nifty. Mr.. Stanton was in the next room, and
probably overheard the conversation. Judge
Pierrepont went in to see him: He was sit
ting as an invalid in his arm chair. HE re-
ceived me- said Judge Pierrepont, with his
old kind smile, and although very feeble, made
an attempt to rise to shake hands, convers-
ed with him on different subjects, but did not
make allusion to our project of presenting him.

door, when he said: 'Pierrepont, come

he gently laid his hand upon my shoulder,
and, LOOKING me straight in the face, feelingly
said: I have always regarded you as my
friend, PieIrepont. You are going away now,
and may never see you again. am as you
see, upon bed of sickness from which I NAV
never rise. I want you to do me a favor.
When you go back to New York, tell my
friends there and elsewhere not to raise any
money or other gifts for me, for must refuse
them all. Trey have my thanks for their kind

At IS and Accrued Interest

This road runs through the richest and most
thickly settled portion of this magnificent
State, and is the only link wanting to connect
st. Louis and st. Paul by direct lins, 147
miles shorter than any other.
1t runs through the great coal fields of South
ern Iowa to the North where coal is indispen-
sable and must be carried.
1t runs from, the great lumber regions of the
North, through district of country which is
destitute of this prime necessity.
1T DOES NOT RUN THROUGH A WILDERNESS
where it would wait for years for a population
to give it business, but through tier of coun-
ties which are now producing about twenty
million bushels of grain, most of which is freight
for railroads
Forty-fve miles are Just diminished, ard the
superintendent reports that on the portion
open for business the net earnings are more
than the interest liabilities.
Sixty miles more are graded, and a million
and half of dollars have already been expepd-
ed on the work.
The mortgage is made TO the Farmers Loan
and Trust Co, and bonds can be issued only
at the rate of $4,000 per mile, or only half the
amount upon some other roads. Special secu-
rity is provided for the principal and for the
payment of interest
First mortgages upon most railroads are the
very safest investments, and SO far as we cal
learn, there is not single completed line in
the Northwest which is not only paying its in
terest, but good dividend upon its stock
The immense grain and other frei7hts to be
carried away, and the domestic supplies TO be
brought in, ensure profitable business.
First Mortgage Bonds for so small an amount
upon road running through such a rich and
already well-settled part eff Iowa, can well be
recommended as perfectly safe as we'll as very
profitable investment. At the present rate
they pay about ten per cent on the invest.
