has been able to continue by meeting the assets
forced upon it, to keep in its service its large num-
extent expended in purchases for their supplies,
&C., and these large and regular disbursements
have maintained upon our lines an exceptional
degree of activity and prosperity"
Garrett inferentialy denies the statements that
the Baltimore & Ohio Co. has been seeking large
loans Of money in New York, particularly, and
that its paper was unsaleable, and that inasmuch
as $780, 900 was offered at the time and no pur-
chasers could be found.
1t seems that one of the leading banking houses
in New York offered, by telegraph and by mail,
100000 to the Baltimore & Ohio Co., for its
notes, at low rate of interest, and although that
house expressed particular desire for the paper
ment, the Baltimore q Ohio Co., having surplus
funds on hand, declined to accept the offer.

BY invitation of the gentlemen comprising the
above firm, the night hands, in the absence of any
hungJier representative of the * J.," attended
the first grand opening of this new establishment,
which occurred last evening, and the affair is
written up by the hungIier Of the trio as follows ::
The establishment recently vacated by DArthe-
nay has been secured and completely reftted,
without and within, in manner indicative Of a
determined "eye to business" The neatness and
convenences of the interior are the first notcea-
bic features; but on this occasion these were OBJ
liberated by the dense crowd in attendance. The
saesroom is supplied with everything in the fish
line, and arranged in style that makes everything
look good enough to eat" We soon ush-
cred into the lunch room, where mine host intends
to entertain all droppcIs-n in quest Of, what we
might STYLE gigantic bivalyic Refreshments. Scat
ed at one of the tables we are soon confronted
each with dish Of oysters Of such gigantic pro-
portions that four ill pint dish, thoroughbred
Nolfoks, cultivated, fatted, and trotted out for
our especial gormandizaton. We didn't wish to

and Morton, sitting near, while Charley would in
yariably "rass" when his hand showed monster,
but V. ID. "ordered it up" every time, and occa-
sionally called for new deal. Captain Smith
amused himself with a dish arranged as "sett ot

into the Captains headquarters was sight for
raw recruits Well, we dared not tarry long
for fear that the mortuary record this morning
would be alarmingly increased, ard we bid them

supplies the blood with its iron element, and is the
olly form in which it can enter the circulation.
