ture of the Pacific Mail Company, and
during the past week several stories
have obtained circulation; the most
important Of which is from a well
known capitalist, Offering the neces-
sary money to make payments on the
vessels now in course Of constructions;
provided, that the management Of the
company's business i,e left tn his noni-
nation. 1t is also stated that the propo-
sition was accepted, and that a cofn-
bination bet een the Pacific Mail
Company and the transcontinentai
railroad will be the result. At any
rate, should this prove untrue, it is
generally believed that such a combina-
ton will be the result after the annual
election of tile Pacific Mail company,
which occurs in May.
