Brie Jobbers Out.ione-A Case for the LAWYERS
when Invested In AnOIhere
A piece of what might be taken for sharp
practice, but what the aggrieved persons term
''shrewd fnanciering has Just been unyeliGd IN
Flushing, the end of which is mot yet. About
two years ago number of citizens OF Flushing
subscribed for the stock OF the Flushing and
Woodside Railroad, which was to be built under
the leadership of Oliver Charllck, Orange
Judd, and others, in opposition to the old
Flushing Railroad, then owned by Spencer
Smith and others. The agreement between
the Long Island Railroad Company and the
people of Flushing was drawn up by K. b. Hins-
dale. AS the project assumed shape Interested
parties on both sides wended their way to Albany
to appear before the Committee on Railroads for
and against the measure of granting charter
for bridge over Newtown creek. The contest
continued until Oliver Charlick bought out the
old Flushing Railroad and gave the cold shoulder
to Judd & Co. The attorney advised that the
contract between the Woodside and Long Island
Railroad Companies was worthless and had not
and never had any binding effect, aud that Char
lick had sunk his stock in Woodside. Judd d
Co. were out and injured TO the tune OF $50 0O0
and to repair their loss got up new subscrip-
ton to the Woodslde Road, in opposition to
Charlick's new enterprise. The citizens sub
running into Flushing. While the subscrip-
tions were still being paid, Orange, Judd IL
Co. purchased the Charlick enterprise, and
Judd assumed the presidency, carrying over a
large share of the stock OF the original Wood
side movement to his new purchase. This being
made known, the people, who had no desire to
dabble in railway stocks, declined to pay fur
ther instalment on their subscriptions. Could
they be compelled to pay? was question asked
of eminent lawyers and the answer was mo"
Quietly special act of the Legislature was OBJ
tanned TO bridge over the difficulty, and now the
attorney of the company is serving them with
summons and complaint In the Supreme Court.
The subscribers have held an indignation meet
ing, and passed resolutions condemning Judd e.
Co. In no measured terms. They appointed a
committee of three to employ counsel and resist
the payment demanded.-N Y. Herald to-day.

The King and Francis Joseph of AustrIa-Po-
Iticnl ProspeCts-Itnlian Views of American
Affairs.
FLORENCE, Jan. S.-Parliament has gone
home to what is called by us the domestic
hearth. But this is not quite the phrase here in
Italy, for even the well conditioned classes have
rarely the freside solace so highly priced fur
ther north. No work will be done for two or
three succeeding weeks. The Ministers are
scattered, and none of them, unless 1t be the
Finance Minister or the President of the Cabi-
net, is yet fairly in harness. The King has
come back after one of his frequent visits
TO Turin, the home OF his old affections. Since
his illness he has lost great deal of his former
high color, and is a more sobcr-lookirg, if
not wiser man.
The meeting of the King with the Emperor of
Austria, so long talked about Is still spoken of
as likely to take place. The new rumors would
be hardly worth referring to, there have been 80
many disappointments, were there not political
reasons why the two Sovereigns should make
demonstration of friendly nearnesS. 1t is stated
that the King will go down to Naples on the 18th
of the month, and afterwards cross over to An
coma to meet Francis Joseph ON the 18th. The
King is to pay back the visit some time, and
somewhere on the northern border, and there is
TO be the usual distribution of ribbons, although
the fountain of honors on Doth sides has nearly
run dry, royal fayors of this sort have lately
been go literally poured out.

themselves more frequently in the cities on this

American naval buttons have been seen in

TAs the days begin 20 lengthen

wrote some ancient weather-wise philosopher so
many years ago that his cOuplet has passed into
the catalogue of proverbs. But what farce the
maxim has been during the month that has just
closed "The days began to lengthen" on the
23d of December, but the cold has not yet mate
rally strengthened, although January has been
gathered into the past.
In the following table are given the mean,
maximum and minimum temperature of the
month of January for several years past, which
present a rather startling contrast. The figures
are taken from the records of the Pennsylvania
Ill
