An Indian Prince Dead.

The MahaUah of Puttiala, the rich
young Indian Prince who bought the
Empress Eugenie's diamonds, has
died. The circumstances of his death
may be subscribed as alcoholic. He
was but twenty-four years of age, and
yet in that time he had studied and
practiced every form of debauchery
known to Asiatic or European civiliza-
ton. His facilities for this class of
research were excellent, as he Inherit
ed with his throne fortune of $4,000,
900 year. His most innocent form
OF amusement was the purchase of
jewels, and when he staggered out to
meet the Prince of Wales at Calcutta
he was literally covered from head to
foot with diamonds. The Prince of
Wales was greatly shocked that a
FRINGE should thus be found given up
to dissipation, and His Highness's
nerves were out of order for some time
after seeing him. The Maharajah is
succeeded by his son, aged five years.

CINCINNATI is unlucky. This
week she is cabled that the peace
of Europe is assured. This must
be followed by the nomination OF
an Eastern man by the Republicans
for the Presidency. The former
means cheap bacon and the latter,
if it means anything, means dear
money. Between the Turk, who is
the radical of Europe, and the Re-
publican, who is the radical of
America, there are parallels which
we haye not the time to draw at
length. But there is one failure
we regret to note. While the
Sultan of Turkey in obedience to the
wish of a majority of his subjects
abdicated, the Sultan of the Ameri>
can radicals declines to do that
gracious thing,well knowing that it
is the wish of a large majority of
Americans. BY this act Turkey
has saved herself from being drawn

Now that The Atlantic Mississippi
& Ohio Rail Road has, Cor the present
at least, passed from the control Of
Virginia, it will be more easy for the
people to see the herculean service
and wise leadership of Gen. Malone
There was no other bold spirit that
stalked out of the smoke and dust at
AppOmattox, which ever conceived
the idea of rescuing the broken frag-
ments of our South Side Railway
system from capture and surrender
also.
At a time when Virginia was ruled
with steel, and her Legislature denied
the right to interpose its protecting
power, in behalf of our people and their
institutions, by ali adroit management
rarely equaled, he strung together
the ruined links and breathed into
them an electric force which kindled
the first CLEAN of hope in the Cons
mOnwealth. Consolidation was his
scheme, and with it for seven years
Virginia has defed the wealth and
power of the mightiest combination
Of the Union for her subjugation. =
But for it, the line East of Lynch
burg would have been to-day a work
known only by its ruins. The fine
road bed, splendid track, stately iron
bridges, comely depots and splendid
rolling stocks would exist only in the
anxious wishes of all South Side Vir-
ginia. But for it the Va. G. Tenn.
Divisions would be owned in fee
simple by those who are foreign to
the State aud opposed to her devel-
opement.
That more has not been done is
scarcely to be wondered at when we
remember the stubborn opposition
within the State. That there have
been faults in detail we admit, but
we deny that these will be corrected
by those into whose hands the line
will gravitate. if it must. We tell
our readers that so long as rival lines
run around Virginia, so long will
through freights be carried at lower
rates than local freights, no matter
who may possess and run the line.

THERE are shaping themselves
events calculated to favor reflection
on the part of those who have
thrown up their hats and abraded
their Threats over the failure of
Virginia, with all of her splendid
generosity, to save from wreck and
capture the greatest of her lines of
railway. The trap of the enemy,
who was strong enough to wait, has
fallen, and the proudest and most
valuable work Of the Common
wealth has been caught. Ofcourse
those who have no higher concep-
tons of State policy than the wish
that the State herself should have
destroyed the line in order to make
her money like the usurious lender.
her money which she gave in order
to create and perpetuate it, will
have their brief day of Joy and
then realize the folly they are too
proud TO acknowledge. But there
are those in whom State pride and
the hope of State prosperity are
not dead, who will neither sup
press nor conceal their regret that
in the case of our great consolida,
ted line the State of Virginia be-
gan to build and was not able, or,
to use a more apt figure, that she
has become one of those unlucky
parties who build railroads which
those who are lpckier and wealth
Ter at last own.
If the line should 90 to sale, it
will become the property of those
who are alien to Virginia, and it
will be made to subserve their in
terests. The investment of every
Stakeholder, both divisional and
consolidated, viii be as dead as so
much Confederate money, and the
chief office of the company will be
removed to other soil. No man. |
who is a Virginian, need pursue
this line Of thought farther to en-
gender the wish that the line may |
yet be able to meet its engagements
and so escape the tate we have |
portrayed.
With a reasonably speedy return
of prosperity to the country, it
would seem that such a hope
should be realized. The Court has
retrained from excluding the past
friends of thesline from represen,
tation in the new management

York, is virtually the appointee of

a Virginian and largely identified
with the past management and
policy of the road. The two are

high character as a financier, and is
Il gentleman of integrity. Major
Fink is thoroughly schooled in
railway management and expert

Gen. A. A. Chapman's Death.

While sitting in the railway train at
Hinton, shortly after midnight of
Tuesday last, on his way to the State
Convention at Charleston, death sud-
denly overlook this venerable gentle
man, in ripe old age. Many hearts
VIII be made sad and lonely by the
news Of Gen. Chapman's death. Born
on the banks Of New River, in Giles
county Va, at the opening of the
18th century, he at an early age emil
grated to Monroe and has ever since
been one of its most distinguished and
popular citizens. Thirty years ago he
twice represented this region in Con-
gress, and he had been to the close of
his life an ardent politician. General
Chapman was a gentleman of strong
impulse, and very positive and obsti-
nate in opinions, but it is generally
conceded that his native goodness OF
heart placed a key by the door, which
was always accessible. He was one of
small remnant of prominent men
now rapidly passing away, who in a
comparatively recent period, controll-
ed the public sentiment of Monroe

TRANs-OONTINENTAL EXCURSION.
The Run from Elko to San Franoisco-The
Apparent and Real Time Made.


Apparent and Real Time Made.
The correspondent of the New Yorl
Herald telegraphs from San Francisco
an interesting account of the run o
Jarrett & Palmer's grand trans-conti
mental excursion train from .Elko t.
San Francisco. The following is the
material portion of the Herald's de-
scription of the winding up of the
trip:
THE RUN FROM ELKo o SAN FRAN,

On leaving Elko at 81 P. NJ. Sat
urday, we ran the same locomotive
some three hunded miles, yet not O
journal was heated, and the engine
seemed to be in excellent trim. The
scenery, though made monotonous by
the eternal sage brush, was sufficient.
lY varied in formation to give renewed
interest to this portion of the trip
The speed, despite the curves and
grades, was tremendous, for we made
fifty-fve miles in fifty-four minutes
on this division. At Carlin we met
the eastern. hound train that had left
San Francisco Friday morning, so
that, though we had scarcely a fourth
ular train had been nearly thirty
three hours doing a distance we sub
sequently accomplished in less than
half the time.
The Central Pacific decided to run
engine 149 from Ogden to Oakland.

miles. The feat seemed impossible.
yet it was accomplished. 1t was,

none of the party would care to assist
in another such demonstration of me-
chanical power. 1t must also be said
that in using this solitary engine the
Central lost fully one hour in stoppa-
ges consequent upon the condition of
the locomotive, and thus robbed us of
that time crossing the continent. The
officials of the road were, however,
earnest and untiring in their efforts to
secure success through the entire trip.
TO run such an engine. nearly one
thousand miles was powerful test of
iron and steel. / sit in the Palace
Hotel with a steady table at last under

none of the party who knew anything
of railroad travel were ignorant that
the experiment was a dangerous one,
though we had at the time no appre-
citation of danger, as the cars ran
smoothly and the care taken by the
officials was constantly manifest. On
the route beyond Truckee we found
Mr., Fellows, the superintendent of the
Sacramento and Oregon division, in
charge of the train, he having on the
day before instructed the officials along
