Pass.
The Washington correspt ndent OIL
the New York Tribune sends the fol-
lowing despatch:-
"Senator Thurman made long and
strong speech to-day on the question
Of the Pacific Railroad Indebtedness
to the Government, and in favor of
his bill for creating sinking fund to
pay it eff. He said that the two great
companies owe the United States So, :
GOO, 900 for the principal OF the bonds
loaned them, and that as they are now
released by decision of the Supreme
Court from paying the interest until
the principal becomes due, the whole
debt will amount at maturity to $751;
O00, 900, a sum which he seemed to
think the roads will never be able TO
pay. He gave the present net earnings
of the Union Pacific as SO, las, ,3G5, and
the Central Pacific as $S,O31 ,493. No
vote was reached to-day 1t is assert
ed by friends of the roads that Mr.
Gordon's substitute for the Thurman
bill, which does not meet with their
opposition, will be adopted. They
are decidedly opposed both to the
Thurman bill. and the Lawrence bill
which passed the House last session."

NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 30.-To-day
another elected legislator was seated
In the legal Legislature. Yesterday
the radical rump, pretending to bave
a quorum, elected Jim Lewis, yellow
politician, to the United States Senate.
Their leaders, startled at this unex>
pected choice of their factious colored
followers, declared then that Lewis
was not elected, as a quorum had not
voted. AS consequence .here were
heavy desertions from the rump to-
day.
Since January 9Th the stock of seven
local companies of various kinds has
appreciated in value over two and a
quarter millions of dollars and all 9th
