NORTHERN PACIFIC IN TWENTY.
-FOUR SHARES-H0W THEY WERE
DIVIDED. ...l

twill be observed by Blaine's letter to
Fisher that he says "The whole road is
divided into twenty four shares, of which
lay Cooke & Co. have twelve" Now,
it is very we'll understood here by those
who are acquainted with the inside his
tory Of the Northern Pacific, that these
twenty four shares were placed where
they would do.the most good. Jay Cooke
& Co. made the arrangement and mani
pulated the scheme with capitalists as
well as with Congresmen. Twelve of
the twenty four shares were placed with
capitalists in different sections of the
country whose standing in the financial
world, as we'll as their political influence,
would be serviceabie to Jay Cooke & Co
in placing the bonds of the company on
the market as well as in controlling Con-
gress Smith, President of the Vermont
Central Railroad Company and his
friends took one interest; Tom Scott, Of
the Pennsylvania Central Railroad, and
his friends another George w. Cass,
President Of the Pittsburg and Fort
Wayne Railroad Company, and his
friends ten shares; Sam Hooper and his
friends two shares; w. G Fargo another;
William Window, Bill King, and other
Minnesota capitalists, represented by
them, one share; and the other four
shares were allotted as follows: Thad,
Stevens, one in the name of Riley; Blaine,
one in the name of Stewart; John
Sherman, one in the name of Cooke; u.
S. Grant, one. The twelve shares Jay
Cooke & Co. held were drawn upon for
allotments to the army Of lobbyists they
had employed here from time to lime.
One share was divided through Edmunds,
postmaster at Washington, and Sam Will
kinson had another to split up among
his friends. Dent and Paige got their
interest through Thad. Stevens man
Riley. Smiler Colfax did business direct
ly with the Cookies, as did John Sherman.
There were S8I 900, 900 Of stock of rail-
road to be divided among these twenty
four shares, and an equal amount of the
Lake Superior and Puget Sound Land
Stock Company stock, as well as good
y number of the 7.3o first mortgage
bonds, which came through another
Credit Mobilier called Construction
Company, which built the road, taking
all the bonds per mile therefor and divid-
ing the surplus bonds over and above
the cost Of the road among the ground
floor stockholders. Each one of these
twenty four interest was entitled to $3,-
$4,000 of the railroad company stock.
and like amount fthe Sound company
stock, making in all $6,75o.ooo The fol-
lowing passage in Blaine letter to Fisher
needs explanation:

Hon. Samuel j. Randall speaking
upon the bill for the substitution of silver
coin, said;
Mr.. Chairman, there are various bonan-
"a interests which ought not to be forgot
ten in the discussion Of the proposition,
There is bonanza interest OF gold, there
is bonanza interest Of silver, and there
is bonanza interest of nickel. There is
also a bonanza interest not yet mentioned,
and that is the bonanza interest OF the
bank note engraving companies. could
show by reports to Congress thar from
1863 to 1874 these bank note companies
in New York and elsewhere, now resis-
ung this substitution of silver for paper
fractional currency, received more than
60 ooo, 900 from the Government. 1t is
important TO them therefore to obstruct
this substitution, because they have
direct pecunidry interest in keeping aHoat
paper fractional currency.
In conclusion, let me say this bill only
asks the substitution Of silver coin for
paper fractional currency. 1t can safely
be done, as silver coin will remain in cir
culation so long as gold is below I.2o
Silver is now from to S per cent. below
the greenback, and being the leastvalua.
Bile, will circulate. Besides, being an
overvalued coin by the Government
stamp, it will be barred from expectation
as bullion.
The relative cost Of production also
comes into view here as one advantage
in favor of silver, and it was one of the
grounds upon which we based our action
in favor of this bill. The coming Of sill
yer costs about u per cent. of its face
value, while as to fractional currency it
is disputed whether it costs 81 or FIVE per
cent of its face value. Silver is one of
the constitutional legal tenders, and con-
unues in use for fifty years onthe average.
and then the loss is only to the extent OF
wear; while, on the contrary, fractional
currency lives only for fifteen months. :.

UNIVERSALLY
RECOMMENDED.

We have just received October, 1879 comDun,
icaton from nearly every druggist in New Eng aud
and the testimony is universally IN favor OF san
ord's Radical Cure Tor Catarrh We oeneve tneIe
and certainly we feel that never was one more de.
serving of praise. Founded upon correct sclentlbc
and calculated by the most accomplished
physicians to meet the severest forms OF Catarrh,
the cures made by it have not only been numerous,
but remarkable to excite public attention and
cause the sale to exceed tenod that of any similar
remedy ever before compounded.
While many are anxious to make public their tes-
timony in favor of the Radical Cure, others and
anon this number may be found many OF our most
r, spt cted citizens dislike to become publicly
deI tilted with 30 loathsome q dis case. Hence, in
the following case we are unable to give the name,
but permitted to state the severity and condi.
ton OF The case Def re after using the Radical
Care, and also that the gentleman occupies d re-
sponaibie Office in one OF our state in ututions. We
quote:
al would not for the world permit my name to be
used although have no doubt IL would be OF ben
eft to many now suffering as have suffered; but
give you brief statement OF my case:-
"For two years rave taken bromide of
potassa and bromide Of ammonia every day

up once or twice to IT Q my throat from the
matter that had dropped into our ng all this
time. Since taking the Radical Cure have
taken NJ potassa g. MONA. nave sae pr
distress; not a par ical of matter has droS pea
into my throat during sleep,a land every symp-
tom OF q cough has left me."
A wonderful result truly, all will say. who know
or realize the extent and severity OF THIS case
The gentleman has had eighteen bottles. This must
satisfy the sceptica that there is great merit in the
Radical Cure. Its mode of preparation Is new and
original Ignoring the old practice s and remedies,
DIR. Sanford selec ed a new field, and has demon
strated bis method TO be the only proper and never
failing treatment.

The Faith OF the Shakers.

Mainly, their faith is their life; life OF
charity, of labor, of celibacy, which they
call the angelic life. Theologically, 1t
can be most succinctly presented in their
formula. Christ Jesus and Christ Ann,
their belief being that the order OF special
prophecy was completed by the inspira-
lion of Mother Ann Lee, the wife OF the
English blacksmith, Stanley. She is their
second Christ; their divine mother. whom
some of their hymns invoke: and tor
whom they cherish tilial love. The
families OF Shirley and Harvard, Massa-
chuseus, were formed in her time. near
the close OF the last century; at The latter
place they show the room in which she
lived. and whence she was once dragged
by the foolish mob which helps to found
every new religion.
In regard to other points their minds
vary. Generally they do not believe in
the miraculous birth or divinity of Christ;
he was a divinely good and perfect man,
and any of US may become divine by be-
ing codke. Generally. also, | should
say that they reject the Purtanic ideas of
future rewards and punishments, and ac-
cept something like the Swedenborgian
notion OF the life hereafter. They are all
spritualists, recognizing a succession OF
inspirations from the earliest times down
to our own, when they claim to have been
the first spiritual mediums. Five or six
years before the spirits who have since
animated so many table-less, planche,ts.
phantom shapes, and what not began to
knock at Rochester, the Shaker families
in New York, Massachusetts. Ohio, and
elsewhere were in full communion with
the other world, and they were warned OF
the impending invasion of the worlds par
lor and dining room sets. They feel by
no means honored, however, by all the
results. But they believe that the inter
course between the worlds can be rescued
from the evil influences which have per-
vertcd it. and they have sigas, they say,
of AN carly removal of the manifestations
among themselves. In some ways these
have in fact never ceased. Many of the
Shaker hymns, words and music, are di.
rectly inspirational. coming to this broth
er or that sister without regard to his or
her special genius; they are sung and
written down. and are then brought into
general use. The poetry is like that which
the other world usually furnishes through
its agents in ihis,-hardly up to our liter
airy standard; put the music has always
something strangely wild, sweet and naive.
