Caleb williamson, Of this city, Major J. a.

Benedict does large business in this line.
Further information will bo given it the parties

BIRDS or PREY.

Our generosity has again led us into an error,
which we hasten TO correct. In enumerating
the vultures who prey upon the carcass OF ex-
hausted Erie, we were wrong in saying that
nine-tenths of the directors were engaged in
fraudulent transactions, the profits of which
were practically stolen from the Erie stock
holders 1t now seems that the proportion was
incorrect, and should have been written ten
tenths for of the fourteen directors in charge
of the road precisely fourteen are desperate
spectators and salared officials, as for instance:
Jay Gould has half-interest in the Elmira
Iron and Steel Rolling Mill; is President Of
the Towanda Coal Company, and has half
interest in the Blossburg Coal Company is a cor
pOrator in the Erie Refining Company; has half
interest in the Slate Roofing Company. which
has the contract to roof the Erie buildings,
and is part owner of the Northern Railway OF
New-Jersey, which cost S25O,OOO cash, and
which is let to the Erie Road at 81 per cent
on the investment is interested in the Sleeping
Car and Coach Company, and is half ownerOf the
Opera House, in fitting which half million OF
Erie money has been spent and for the rent
of which $4,000 is annually taken. vice.
President Archer has profitable freight con-
tracts. +. A. Lane has salary as counselor.
Justin d. White is Treasurer ii. n. OTIS Is
Secretary alike of the road and the Towanda
Coal Company. John Hilton is Engineer ana
a member of the Auditing Board. George Z.
Hall, Purchasing Agent, is one OF the cOrpo-
rators of the Jefferson Car Company and the
Erie Coal Company. Homer RamsdeH Is q
freight contractor DR.. Eldridge is President
of the Iron Works at Elmira, and has con-
tracts for supplies for Erie. Director SlSson
is the principal owner with Gould of the profit
ably leased Northern Railway of New-JerSey.
John GansOn is Attorney for the road. NJ L..
SimOns is manager of the Narragansett Steam
ship Company. Henry Thompson of the
Auditing Committee passes upon his own ac-
counts as director of the Northern Railway of
New-Jersey and Boston and Erie Railroad.
And now it seems that Henry Sherwood, the
last of the gang, is a partner with Gould and
Eldridge in the BlOssburg Coal Company.
The proof Of all that is here asserted is
readily attainable by the Legislature, and we
submit that the facts in themselves warrant
the instant repeal of the act by which these
men keep themselves in control of an i'm
portant public highway to the manifest ruin
of its real owners and the advantage of them
selves. Law was never prOstituted to baser
purposes by more reckless cOnspirators; and
the Legislature which rejects the present OPP
portunity to relieve the road and the commu-
nifty of these birds of prey must expect to be
held to rigid account for the failure.

The ruling passion is as strong in great crises of
life as in death. il we may judge by the accounts
which come to us from the almost depOpulated re-
gons of France, of the work done there by our
friends the Quakers. While other Aid Societies
made use of intricate and sometimes tardy ma
chinery to reach the people with money food, the
Friends War Victims Fund Committee The Pail
Mall Gazette states, concentrated their means and
repaired to the neighborhood of Metz where famine
aud pestilence had done their worst. With Fowl
er's steam apparatus, conveyed from England
through immense difficulties, and by system of
organized manual labor, they succeeded In cutiva-
ting and seeding all that region in an incredibly
short space of time" The succor thus afforded to
Metz and its neighborhOod alone was valued
at 100000 francs. No people understand as do
the Quakers the economy of charity. In
stead of filling tho hungry mouths of the
ruined people for day. they provided for
a years necessities, while they fed and paid them

The observations of the Hon. Joseph Howe,
Secretary of State for the Provinces, in his
address at Ottawa, have disturbed the quietude
of Canadian politics. He is dissatisfied be-
cause England has stripped Canada OF every
soldier. and is clearly determined to regard
her own security as paramount to that OF her
colony He cites facts indicating that England
does not treat her Canadian possessions as OF
vital Importance to her own existence, but ne
wants this policy formally declared in order
that Canada may "know what to do" Mr..
Howe, also, is alarmed that the New Dominion
with 100000 inhabitants is left to govern
half continent, while there are 4O,OOO,OOO
ambitious and aggressive people" on the
other side Of frontier 5000 miles long. The
future does not, in his opinion, promise to re-
move this inequality, for five immigrants come
to the United States for every one that goes
Northumberland he might have added that that
one is, in most cases, soon induced to cross the
border 1t is singular that the Cabinet should
take exception to views so obvious and COM
mOnplace, or that the local press should have
suppressed the entire speech. The authorities
may be satisfied that a large portion OF the
population do not regard annexation with
horror, and that many more are convinced
that stone walls and rihed cannon are the
worst means they could use to restrain the
ambitious and aggressive" neighbors whom
the Secretary fears.

The Legislative investigation of Castle Garden
affairs brought to light on Saturday another
Terwilliger, in the person of one King, who
appears to have pOcketed from % to SIS per
cent on the purchases made by him as agent
of the Emigration Commissioners. We are
glad to know however, that this ingenious
appropriation of official funds by the commits
sion trick has already been turned adrift.
Another very pretty percentage, unearthed by
the same investigation, was that secured by
Lawyer Nolan, who engineered through the
Legislature the bill reducing the "head
money" ON emigrants from 81 so to 81 so
EACH and was rewarded with 25 per cent of
the $4,000 which the steamship companies
thereby saved in a single year.
