Ing the exact situation Of sRairs. On the 9th
OF April, 1875, Central Of New Jersey was cell

Western at 1873. At that time Mr.. John Taylor
Johnston was not only millionaire, but he was
looked upon as one of the shrewdest and most
successful railway managers In tho country.
he was classed among such men as Wander biit,
Garrett and Scott. No one then could have
anticipated that so safe and solid q stock aa
was apparently Central of New Jersey would
be selling at the prices which ruled this sum-

If We trace the real causes of the disasters
which, of late, lave overwhelmed SO many of
our rich men, we will generally fiud that these
disasters are mainly attributable to "Outside
sps culatioD." Outside speculation is as essen
TALLY an American expression as 1T is pecu-
harly national weakness. In Europe, where
business is conducted OH more conservative
basis, here the m.rcbaut is content with more
modest rev ards, devotes less time to busi ness
cares, and does not yield up his whole life to
the pursuit of wealth With that teverish in
tepsity which chaIncteriZss the American, out
side speculations are Coui iparativey unknown.
Each one pursnes his own particular avocation
or line of business, invests his gains in pro-
perties with which he is familiar, aud does not
risk them in doubtful speculation with the
hope of doubling the acoumn lations of years by
some lucky hit. In this country, on the other
hand, great vicissitudes in fortunes mark our
commercial history. In prosperous times the
American business man makes large profits. At
certain periods of the year he has very
siderable capital lying idle. Seasons of excep-
tional prosperity engender all manner of new
entorprisee-such as railroad aud mining COM
panies, and the like. Our thriving business
man hears daily of the enormous rise in the

have made money in this manner, and why
should not he do likewise7 Tbus he embsrks
in outside speculations, W hich for years may be
successful, but which in nine cases out of ten
have ultimately been the ruin of those who
tried them. Those rich men and wealthy fami-
lies in this eity, living on incomes derived from
accumulated wealth or the returns of legiti
mate business, never speculate. The Astors
don't speculate A. T. Stew ard never speculated.
All of this class-more or less wealthy-owe
their immunity from the disasters which over

THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE.
AMERICAN FORTUNES ARE PRovERBTALLY VERY
UNSTABLE.
New York Sun.I

New York Sun.I
Those in this country engaged in trade and
commerce are liable at any moment to be over
whelmed by financial panlcs, political dis
turbauces, and other causes against which no
human foresight cen provide. The millionaire
of to-day becomes the bankrupt of tomorrow.
We have bad, of late, several notable in
stances of reverses of fortune among tho rich
men of this city, the most recent and the most
notable being that of Mr.. Ed dWard Matthews,
the great real estate owner. Mr. Matthe IS
owned buildings in tho heart of the down town
business portion of the city, renting hundreds
OF iii Gets and stores in Broadway, Broad street,
Wall stieet, and Exchange place, all at high
rates. 1t is said that hlS income from real
estate alone, in ten years, beginning with 1863,
amounted to over 5000 900. Mr.. Matthew'S
became involved, and his creditors are, as we
ur derstaud, now seeking to throw him into
bankruptcy. For many Years Mr. Matthews,
his house GA Fifth avenue, near Eighteenth
street, his choice callectIOn of piCt"Tes by mod
eru masters, and bis taultless tqnipages, have
been much talked of in fashionable circles in
this city. At one time nobody turned out
better appointed fuur-in-hand than Edward
Matthe VS.. Now be is in very serious d dlfhculty.
On the goth of October last he convey ed all his
real estate to bis SOD. Brapder Matthews, for
q consideration of $50, GOO IL is charged that

valued at over $3.000,o00 even in these tunes, Is
assailable on the ground of fraud. Certainly
in this case the wheel of fortune made ddeu
and disastrous turn for q gentlemen who SO long
had been rolling IN wealth.
Daniel Drew, who, at one time, and that not so
long ago, threw about his mIliops in Wall
street with the best of them. He could at any
time during ten successive years have retired
from the street. worth So COZ, 600, bat he ven
Cured, like Daniel of old, once too often to the
lions den, and no miracle was performed in his
behalf; aud he is now utterly bankrupt of his
houses and lots, his farms, his bonds and
stocks; not even grease spot is left; they
have all passed into other hands. Mr. Drew's
case is particularly bad one. He finds him
self stripped of worldly possessions at au age
when be can no longer hope to retrieve his
fallen fortunes.
The announcement of the sale of Mr. John
Tay 1or Johnston's magnificent collection of
paintings, with the exception of Mr. Marshall
o. Roberts and Mr. BelmonIs, tbe largest and
most valuable private collection in the city, is
another evidence of private misfortune little
expected few months ago. Mr.. Johnston's
losses chiefly, if not entlrely, owing to the
decline of the stock of the Central Railroad of
New Jersey. He was P P'esident of the road, and
one OF the largest stockholders. 1t 10 said that
the great bnlk of his fortune was in this stock.
Be iE told TO his credit, he held on to it. He
did not seek to "get out" though, as President

RUSSLA IN THE EAST.
PLAN OF PETER THE GREAT FOR THE SUE
JUGATIOE OF EUROPE.

The following remarkable document, be-
queathed d by Peter the Great to lis success
surs on the throne of Russia, is deposited IN
the archives of the Palace of PeterhCff,
near St. Petersburg. The document was
first brought to Europe in 1857, by the
Chevalier d'Enon, who being in the good
graces of the Empress Elizabeth, was en-
abled to obtain copy.
On his return to France, charged by his
i'm peral mistress with ratification of q
supp.em ant to the treaty of Versailles, he
communicated this extraordinary d0cu-
ment fist 10 l'Abbs de Bernie, Minister of
Foreign Affairs, and subsequently to the
King himself This stupendous scheme of
European dominion, as sketched out by
Peter, seemed, however, utterly cbimerical
to the Ministers of Louis XIV. The docu-
ment is of peculiar interest at the present
time.
1t will be eeen that Peter the Great
asserts his views to be the DEGREES of
Providence and that he regards the Russian
people as called to the future supremacy OF
all Europe. He leaves the precepts which
are sutjoined, and which he commends to
their constant attention and observance,
even as Moses commended the Jewish
people to the Observance of the tables of the
law:
THE TESTAMENT OF PETERI 1.
In the name of the holy and indivisible
Trinity, we, Peter, Emperor, or Antocrat, OF
All the Russas, etc, to all our descendants,
aud successors in the throne and government

our crown, having constantly enllghted US
with His wisdom, and sustained US by His
mighty arm, etc, we leave it in charge to our
Successors.
