the Amendment. All Of the foregoing facts
can be verified by the examination OF the
records OF, the company.
Now, the question arises, What should be
done by the court in the premises : There
can be DO sale, under the mortgage Of Sep,
tember, 1871 Of the franchises, road-beda,
&C., of the whole road, but only of the stock
of the new GO npany in the several old CON-
papies, and of i's personal property and
then there is large account to settle be.
tween the new company and the old ones.
1t is submitted whether ia this state of
things 1t is not proper that the old COM
panes should be made, parties TO the pro.
ceedings. and q receiver appointed for
each one of them, SO that the re-
ceipts of each shalt be applied first
to the liquidation Of its own debt; and, II .
sale becomes necessary, that each one Of the
old roads shall be sold separately. so that the
debts or the several companies shall be paid
out of the purchase. money for which its
road shall sell, and the surplus, il any, di
ytded between the stockholders who still re:
rain their stock and the creditors OF the new
company The latter, 10 fact, being entitled
only to 80 much as the stock of the said COM;
pany shall amount to in the division, s...
j 1t is well known that there is q great diff
ference in the value of the several roads 10
dependent of their difference il. length, and
If they are sold Together how will 1t be pos.
sible to divide the purchase.money between
their, several creditors and stockholders
according to their respective rights! Tue
difficulty as. to the creditors may be gotten
over by paying all their .debrs, but 1t cannot
be avoided as 10 the stockholders. y s..
{ These views are submitted, without any
reference to the question as to whether the
affairs Of the Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio
Company have been tnismanaged, or az to
who Shall be appointed the receiver or re-
ceiVers. The questions must necessarily
arise in the case, though they're not re
ferred to in. The bill. If,a, sale. shall tase
place under the deed ct September, 1871,
Alone, then the purchaser becomes merely a
seockhoIder Ia the several old companies, and
will have long account to settle with them.

apt to find each dish as ii is brought on
an interesting problem. 1t appears 10 be
the aim OF the Italian cook 10 prevent
the diner from becoming acquainted with
his dinner except through the process OF
digestion. The Germans appear in this
matter as well as in other national peca-
liariiies to take their cue from tho Ital-
ians instead of their traditional enc
mics across the Rhine. OF German
restaurants in general, except those
which have been 80 transformed as no
longer to be German, it may be said in
brief that they combine the heayiness OF
the English style with the ambiguity of
the Italian, and are original only in the
presence and prevalence on their tables
of lager beer and soured meats.

A Border Heroine.

Some years ago, before the state Of Ar
kansas was 80 densely populated as now,
and when the mails from Little Rock to
back, there lived few miles above
Horsehead a stout pioneer named Jacob
Burnap. His wife Polly and one child
nine years old made up his family. His
chief business was hunting, and his un-
erring rifle never failed to supply his
board and something over His nearest
neighbor was fifteen miles off, 30 he was
little troubled with prying visitors.
1t was in the early spring that Jacob
started down the river with a boat load
of furs and skins. He left Polly in
charge of the premises; and he left with
her, too, light rifle and brace of pis-
tolls. She knew how TO use the rifle, for
never was she happier than when her
husband patted her ON the shoulder and
said, "Nobly done, Polly my dear; |
could not have made a better, shot
myself"
And he had occasion to say this with
truth, too.
Jacob Burnap had been gone four days,
when towards evening q horseman rode
up to the hunters door. He was a
small, muscular man, some forty years
Of aye and seemed Injured TO all hard
ships. As he sprang from his saddle,
Polly made her appearance.
"Ah, Polly, once more here the new
conner said, as he drew well-flled pair
Of saddle bags from the back of his
fatigued beast.
"Yes, and am glad to see you. Jacob
has been gone four days, and time is get
ting heavy"
Jacob, gone? Where?''
"Down the river, with load of furs ?"
"Oh, yes. Well, you shall have the
company of Liant Morton for one night
at least so for the next twelve hours
you'll be sree.
"Oh, feel safe enough" returned
the woman quickly only a little
lonesome
Thus speaking, Morton threw his sad
dle-bags into the cabin and led his horse
around to a low she'd, where he made the
animal fast and fed him.
After this he returned to the dwelling
and entered, and was soon discussing
the events of the time over an ample
supper. His hostess had told him what
had transpired in the neighborhood
since his last visit, and the visitor gave
her all the news of the Eastern valley.
Liant Morton had been mail carrier upon
that route for several years, and not
once had he passed to and fro without
spending night at Jacob Burnap's. In
fact he was about the only regular visi-
Tor al tho buptar's 10 him. apd oItbouub
the intervals between his visits were
long, yet he seemed almost fixture to
the place. Polly Burnap, just in the
bloom of womanhood, knew his gentle,
generous, and noble character; 50 she
felt perfectly free and at home in he
] presence. N- El
(" Is il not known on the route that
your load is valuable?' asked Polly.

We do not in the least feel like blaming
Macbeth for this expression of disgust; in
deed, we are rather inclined to sympathize
with him. Even nowadays most of the
cathariics offered to the public are great,
repulsive-looking pills, the very appearance
of which is sufficient to "turn ones stomach"

uttered those words of contempt. ltisreally

TALLY One, FOR ALEX. BARNUM .
The readers of the Tribune know that
some months ago, Alex Barnum commenced
an action egai.st the Blast Furnace company
tor the wood that he furnished that company
on written contract, and for which they
have refused to paw, and also for the dam
ages ihat he has sustained by reason of their
failure to carry out their part Of the con
tract. We believe that in his complaint he
Claimed money due and damages to the total
amount OF $4,000. The Blast Furnace
company made no defense and a Judgment
nas taken against them bv default for the
sum OF $4,000. Afterwards, the cOmpans
came into court, claimed that there was some
mistake about the matter, that they had a
Eo0d defense, and asked leave 10 iile an an
s~er; and, after considering the matter
Judge Stcarns granted fhe request. At
