DIR. j. +. Grant was called to
Lawrence last Friday to perform
one of the most intricate operations
in surgery. When he got to Shoal
creek it was so much swollen that
he couldn't get across to the pa
tient, and wneE he started to return
home Richards surging pillows
as it were) turned him back. He
couldn't get to his patient, couldn't
get home, was there without any
thing to read or cigars to smoke,
Maj. Bate was absent, and there he
stayed three days waiting for the
waters to subSide.

The Company for the manufac-
ture of Rodes' Patent Economic
Water Lift is being formed in Nash
vile. The success of the patent
does not depend upon it's adoption
by the Louisville Road, but it will
be manufactured for general use
and placed everywhere in the couI-
try. Mr.. Rodes does not doubt
that it will at once come into gen
eral use, as it is so manifestly to
the interest of roads to adopt it.
Mr.. Funiak was to be in Nashville
last Tuesday to let the Company
know whether his road will adopt
it at once or not.

MEMORANDA


despatch from Cincinnati to-day says:-.The
proposition made which is likely TO be accepted by
the G., G. and l. c. bondhoders, is to fund all the
back coupons with the exception of one to receive
from the Pennsylvania Railroad Company bonds with
proper guarantees and TO keep the interest paid up in
future. This arrangement Is likely to be out
very soon, else the Court when it convenos may CON-
pei the Pennsylvania Railroad Company pay in cash
all the back interest The bondhodcrs agreed some
time ago, IN writing to accept the six per bonds
IN lieu Of cash from the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany and consequently they havo to accept this mode
Of settlement should President Scott insist upon IT,
rho concession of one coupon by the g., C. and G.
,ondholders is a decided advantage TO tho stock
holders"
The Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad direct
ors met in Boston today and declared semi annual
dividend Of per cent.
The Adams Express Company have decided to de-
clare their usual quarterly dividend.
