THE New York Herald has discovered
pretty direct case of the sale of a cadetsbip by
Southern member of Congress, showing that
the disreputable practice has really an exist

ger, who through the medium of brokers for
consideration of $4,000 promised for North
ern boy cadetship. The carpet-bagger, it
seems, failed to divide, according to agree
ment, with the brokers, and the latter have
therefore concluded to expose the thing. I'm
fortunately the name is not given, but it will

In New York, on Sunday, Father McMa-
hon, Romish priest, reviewed in no fatter-
ing terms the peculiar corrupt tendencies of
the political office-holders and party leaders
of the present time. He could conceive no
greater imposition upon people than that of
forcing upon them unjust or incompetent
officials, by the corrupt exercise of the cleo.
tive franchise. History shows that republics
in all ages have lived only so long as virtue
was cherished by their inhabitants, and as in
ancient Greece and Rome the people, if tried
too much, would yet seek relief in some other
form of government The reverend preacher
closed his address with an eloquent appeal to
those who had come from comparative bond
age IN Europe to guard well the liberties they
found awaiting them.

clined a reelection: Geo. M. Brown, Samuel
Hooper, Nathaniel Thayer, Franklin Haven

A vote was passed allowing the directors to
give their consent, if they deem it expediept,
to an an increase of the stock of the Portland
saco q Portsmouth Railroad in the manner
provided by the stockholders at their last an
nual meeting. 1t is understood that the divi-
dends on the new stock are to be paid in gold.
Inc following was referred to the directors
with full powers to act as they see fit:
RESOLVED, That the directors be requested to
transmit to Congress remonstrance aoainst
the proposed heavy increase of duties on steal
rails, and to petition for the removal of ali dn-
ties on imported coal, wooden sleepers and
steel and iron rails.
The subject OF uniting the Eastern and Bos-
ton & Maine Railroads being called up
The President went into detailed account
OF the communication between the two roads.
which began about three months ago. The
SUBJECT OF union of the two roads was first
proposed by the Eastern road, the President
sending to the President of the Boston and
Maine Railroad letter, in which he set forth
the advantages which would accrue to both
corporations and the public. The expense of
new depot for the Eastern road would be
avoided, and the fares and tariffs of freigbts
could be very much reduced.
The President of the Boston and Maine
Railroad laid the subject before his Board. and
committee was appointed to consult with a |
like committee of the Eastern road. Narions
propositions have been made but without anv
i mite result. The last proposition made by |
The Eastern road to the Boston and Maine road |
was that the stock of the latter road should he |
aiken at $3.50 per share, or So, 825, 900 for the |
'ntire stock.
