The Rail,'ay Noajtoy of New York says
that a supplement to the agreement be
tween this company and its bondholders
has been agreed upon, to the effect that
no pledge of the road may be made, or
second mortgage issued, without the con
sent of majority of the preferred stock
holders (who are the bondholders.) The
chief points of the agreement are:
/. The bonded debt of 50, 900, 900 to be
reduced by one-half, and preferred stock
of the same par value to be accepted by
the bondholders for the other half Gold
interest at the rate of : per cent, to be
paid on the reduced bonded debt, begin,
ming with the half-yearly coupon due Feb
ruary l, 1873. The preference shares are
to receive : per cent. dividends before
anything is paid ON common stock

THE SCHOOL BOOK sWINDLE.

\ resolution has been introduced in our
Legislature relative to school books and
their lack Of uniformity, and the frequent
changes made of them at the caprice Of
teachers, or something worse, in the inter
est of publishers. The resolution excites
considerable attention. Parents and
guardians have endured expense and
pupils annoyance, all which tends to ineff.
cheney and hinders the progress of scholars,
until forbearance has ceased to bea virtue.
The resolution requires the preparation Of
a law providing for series of school
books for use in public schools aud strikes
at a serious wrong Of long standing. No
more honestly founded complaint exists
than that arising from the present system
School books hardly get into the hands Of
pupils before some Specializing agent OBJ
tains the ear of the school directors. and
stralghtway, before the chubby fingers Of
scholars have left their peculiar imprint
upon their covers, orders issue changing
the books to some other kind of ques.
tionable value The resolution designs
to cut away all such Specializing manage
ment The evil of frequent changes
should be reformed

Mr. John B. Hawley, of this city, has
taken some pains 10 have the people I'M
derstand that he was opposed to land
grabs and felt an especial interest in pre-
serving the rights Of the United States,
and in keeping our public lands for actual
settlers But, last winter he exerted
himself TO the utmost to pass bill in re-
gard to certain so-called railroad lands in
lowa-and this winter he made a labored
speech on the question, and, last Satur-
day, succeeded in passing the bill. The
Chicago Times thus speaks of the bill
y land grab Of a most villainous charac-
ter, the hrst OF the present session of CON
gress, which, at the beginning gave prom
Use OF spasm Of virtue, was consummated
ON last Saturday, by the passage of a bill
entitled a bill 10 quiet certain land titles
IN Iowa. II appears that the Rock Isl
and and Pacific railway received from
congress a grant Of land to assist in the
construction of a line through the State of
Iowa. The provisions of the grant were
that patents TO land should not be execcu-
ted until the road was operated through
the same. by misrepresentation of some
sort this provision was violated in that the
road received patents 10 nearly one hun.
dred thousand acres lying along the origi.
survey, and from which the road, when
constructed, deviated. Hence, it was new
er entitled 10 the land, but as the grant
was never revoked it disposed of the real
estate, under the assumed ownership.
Lately however, this title has been called
into question, and to quiet the same, and
remove the cloud, congress deliberately
put, its seal OF approval on what was origi-
nally an outrageous, bare-faced steal.
1t is openly charged in Washington that
$4,000 was paid for the passage of the
! bill, Who gets the money!
