Twenty years ago yesterday, on Sat
urday, February 10, 1855, Vice Prcsi-
dent Wilson took his seat in the United
States Senate as the successor of Edward
Everett. The Senate then occupied the
old chamber, now the United States
Supreme Court room. OF the siXty-O one
other gentlemen who occupied seats in
the Senate at that time, thirty-seven
have passed away, and of the twenty
four who survive, the only one now in
the Senate is Hannibal Iamlin, of
Maine. The latter has not, however,
served continuously as a Senator, hav-
ing meanwhile served as Vice President
Governor OF Maine, and as collector of
the port of Boston. Mr.. Wilson has
kept an autograph album, in which he
has secured the signatures of all with
whom he has set in the Senate, accom-
panied by all the dates of their birth.
The 81 gnaturcs now number 80, en-
bracing many Of the greatest and worst
of the public men of this evcntful gcn-
Grafton. Eighteen years and one month
of Mr.. Wilson's twenty years service
in the Senate have been as Il Senator
from Massachusetts the remainder of
the time he has been its presiding officer.

The other route is by way Of Reefs
ranch, down Horse Creek to near its
mouth, crossing the North Platte
River at Nick JaniSe'S ranch, about
thirty miles east Of Fort Laramie,
and thence in a northcasterly direc-
ton, e IL good road, to Red Cloud
Agency. This route is also Travelled
by a stage line, which carries the
mail and passengers from Cheyenne
to Red Cloud and Spotted Tail
Agencies, owned by iIoshier and
CinnamOnd, and also by freight
trains, ranchmen and settlers. This
route is settled up as far as the Platte
River, and all of the Indian goods
for these agencies, and most of the
military supplies for the two mill
tary posts mt the agencies, Camps
Robinson and Sheridan, are trans
ported over it. The fare TO Red
Cloud is fifteen dollars, and the dis
lance from there to the Black Hills
is about fifty miles. The following

HOW To REACH THE BLACK HILLS.
Without decrying any Of the pro-
posed routes from points on the
Upper Missouri River, we assert that
the route from Cheyenne ]northward
Is the safest, speediest, cheapest and
best, to reach the Black Hills.
Cheyenne is at the junction of the
two competing railroads from the
cast-the Union Pacific and Kansas
Pacific. 1t will be two days rail-
road travel to Cheyenne from Chicago
or st. Louis. The following table
will show the distance and present
rate of fare from these two points to
Cheyenne:

We are Credibly informed by the
representatives of these two railroad
companies, that special rates will he
given from Chicago and from St.
Louis 10 Cheyenne, Il Black Hill
parties, which will be at. least one
third less than the above rates.
FROM CHEYENNE TO TIE BLACK
HILLS.
There are two routes that may be
taken to the hills from here. The
one by way of Fort Laramie, Raw
Hide Butte5, Old Woman's Fork
and Beaver Creek is 49, miles. This
route passes through IA settled coun-
try for n hundred miles or so. Cool
ranches will be found every few
miles as far as Fort Laramie. There
Is now a stage line on il owned by
j. G. Abney, that carries the United
States mail to and from the Fort,
and also passengers at ten dollars "A
piece. This line will be extended 10
the Black Hills right away, if the
government permits it to be done.
The road is an unusually good one,
and is constantly Travelled by the
military, by freighters, by ranch
men, settlers and others. The fol-
lowing table OF distances over this
route is correct:

THE G. & 0. R. R. FORECLOSURE SUIT

The G. & D. r. r. FORECLOSURE SUIT
Foreclosure proceedings were institute Ooto-
Der at Richmond, before Judge Bond, By
holders of $40, 600 Of the first mortgage bonds
OF the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad The
application was not concurred in by majority
of the bondholders of the company, and the Of
6cers of the road intended to meet the issue 90
the 22d inst, and then ask permission TO nomi-
nate receiver who should be acceptable to the
majority of the creditors. This would have
prevented further litigation, and might have
lead to some plan tor the equitable adjustment
of existing differences, and to reorganization
of the company. 1t appears however, that
Judge Bond saw fit to appoint Mr.. Henry Ty
son, recently master OF transportation of the
Baltimore and Ohio road, receiver, refusing
the application of counsel of the latter for a
modification of the order. What course will
now be pursued By the representatives of the
Chesapeake and Ohio, it is impossible to say.
1t seems somewhat extraordinary that such a
decree should have been made on the appca-
ton of holders Of only $40, 900 of bonds, when
holders of several millions of dollars worth had
right to DO heard.
