THE KANSAS CITY, ENIPoRIA
& SOUTHERN RAILROAD.

We have learned from reliable sources
some additional facts in regard to the
above road. A construction company,
representing the interests and backed by
the resources of the A, T. g. S. F. rail-
road has been organized, and has pur-
chased the franchises and all the inter
ests of the Kansas City, Emporia &
Southern railroad, otherwise known as
the Narrow Gauge. This new construc-
ton company proposes to complete the
work and build and operate the road in
accordance with the original contract IN
der which the bonds were voted in Lyon
and Greenwood counties. We therefore
expect to see the road built and put into
operation as a Narrow Gauge road. Tues
day morning Mr.. L. Severy, one of
the directors of the A, T. Sc S. F. rail
road, started from Emporia to go to Eu-
reka TO deposit so, 1000 with the commits
siOners of Greenwood county as for
felt if the said construction company
does not build and operate the road TO
Eureka by June 10Th, 1879, on condition,
of course, that propOrtionate amount of
the bonds voted by Greenwood county,
be turned over to said company if it does
build and operate the road as agreed.
This $4,000 forfeit simply shows that
the new construction company has the
means and will build the road, and we
congratulate the people of Eureka on the
near certainty of that thriving town hav-
ing railroad.
Mr.. Severy will tomorrow visit the
place where the men are at work grad
ing, between Madison and Eureka, and
pay all that is due them for work up to
December list; pay them at the close OF
this month up to January LIST, and lei
contracts or employ them for the prose
cutiOn of the work as rapidly as the
weather permits.
AS above stated, we understand that
the new construction company proposes
to build the road according TO the OriSi
nal proposition upon which the bonds
of both Lyon and Greenwood counties
were voted. We have not been informed
who compose the said construction com
pany, but can state that it really repre-
sents and is backed up by the A, T. &
S. F. company, and has therefore ample
capital and resources to carry out any
contract il undertakes.
We have given what information we
possessed in regard to this matter, with
out expressing any opinion, so far as Ly
ON county is concerned, of the course
that our people had best pursue. We
+ have interests at stake which must be
carefully considered, and whenever any
propositions in regard to our bonds are
preached, we shall give such PROPOSE
lions due consideration

A meeting of the senator's and rep
resentatives from the southern states
was held last Friday evening. in Wash
ington, for the purpose of giving expires
sion to the public sentiment in the region
recently afflicted by the yellow fever
towards the people of the north for their
charity and assistance during the epidem-
ic. Senator Eustis presided and 81. D.
Money acted as secretary. A committee
composed of Hon. E. ]. Ellis, senators
Larmar, Harris and Garland. and repre-
sentatives Casey, Young, Jordon, E. era
vens, Van H. Manning and Jno. Goode,
reported a series of resolutions express
ing the most grateful feeling towards
the people of the north for their gener-
erOus charity and kindness during the
prevalence of the fever Eloquent
speeches were made by senator Eustis
and representatives Young, Ellis, Man
ming and others. These words, if follow
ed by deeds, such, for instance, as pro-
lection to men in expressing their politi.
cal opinions and voting at the south with
the same political freedom they enjoy at
the north, will prove that the good deeds
of the north are really reciprocated.

RAYARD rAYLoR DEAD.

The announcement of the death of
Bayard Taylor, in yesterdays dispatches,
carried with it feeling of sorrow TO ali
acquainted with his career He died
Thursday at p. m. at Berlin, being at
the time American minister resident in
that city. His illness had been an
nounced, but it was not stated to be Sc
riOus, and his death was a painful sur
prise.
Mr.. Taylor was born in Kennett Square,
Chester county, Pa, Jan. 18th, 1925, and
lacked less than a month of being "a
years of age. At the age of II he be-
came an apprentice in a printing Office
at West Chester, Pa In 1874 As he
made tour in Europe on foot. Return
ing, he wrote his first book, entitled,
Views Afoot," or Europe seen with
Knapsack and Staff" This book was
written in graphic style, attracted IA
Yorable attention and reached a consid-
cradle sale. He was poor, but industri-
Gus and persevering. lie afterwards ed
tied paper in Phenixville, Pa, then
went to New York city, where he was
engaged in literary work, contributing
to the Literary World" He soon be-
came connected with the New York
Tribune, editorially. This relation he
occupied for many years, very accepta
bly, to Horace Greedy, who was his warm
personal friend.
Mr.. Taylor's second trip was to Cali
fornia, in 1S49. He returned home by
way of Mexico. In 1851 he set out on a
prOtracted tour in the East, in the course
of which he assembled the Nile, and at.
forwards traversed large portions of
Asia Minor, Syria, and Europe. In 1852
he made a new departure from England,
crossing Asia to Calcutta, and after
wards made several other journeys. In
1852 g he was secretary of legation at St
Petersburg, and part of the time charge
d'affairs. In 1874 he revisited Egypt
and attended the millennial celebration
in Iceland at which poem by him was
read, translated into Icelandic. In 1858
and at various times since, he appeared
in this country as a lecturer upon the
countries and people he had visited His
lectures were full of instruction and in
terest He was one of the most extern
sive travellers this country has ever pro
duced, and was eminent as poet, jour
nalist and novelist. He was the author
of eleven books of travels in foreign
lands and in his own country, and also
of several volumes of poetry, and three
or four novels. These books are all q
credit to him as he was credit to his
country. Several of his works have beer
translated into the German, French and
Russian languages. Since 1872 he ha;
been engaged upon combined biogra
ply of Goethe and Schiller.
Shortly after president Hayes came in
to Office he selected Mr.. Taylor as minis
ter to Prussia. His appointment was
generally and warmly commended by
the people of the United States, and al
cordially received by the people of Ger
many. He had spent many years in thai
country, spoke the German Language
fiuently, and was thoroughly familiar
with its institutions and its literature
After useful and well spent life Bay
ard Taylor died, leaving to the world a
shining example of true manhood, a no
BILE record, private and public, and bear
ing with him the love and respect O.

FIsK's "REMINISCENCES OF DREW.

n. Y. correspondence Cincinnati Gazette
l heard one of Fisk's about Drew the
other day, which, so far as know, has
never been in print. 1t illustrates the
manner in which that distinguished pat
ron of theology carries his religion into
his daily business. 1t was at the time
that Fisk was in "Uncle Dan'Ps" en-
ploy. Uncle Dan attended meeting up
town, where an attempt was made to
raise money for church purpose, and
where the subscription stuck badly on
the last 5000. All the usual means
were resorted TO to bulge it, without
avail, and there were many appealing
glances of the eye, and some very direct
illusions dispatched toward the point of
the compass at which Uncle Dan was
seated. Finally, he drew his long form
up, and said in his drawing voice, "Well,
1 guess I'll have to give that last SIS 600, d
and chorus of gratitude was heard. So
far, Uncle Dan in the church; now I'm
Gle Dan in the Office. He came in the
next morning with q thoughtful counte-
nance, and made the following pithy
speech to Fisk and his colleagues, which
will remind the reader of Fagin's dis
course to the Hon. Charles Bates and the
Artful DOdger: Il was up to the church
last night, boys, and had to give So, OOO
atore l could get away. I guess you'll
just have to take it out of 'em to-day
boys" The boys sailed out, and, when
Fisk got back, sure enough he had sue
ceeded in taking it out" of somebody
probably by very much the same sort OF
process that Charley Bates and the Art
full Dodger got pOcket-books and hand
kerchiefs. There was $1,000, and the
subscription was paid. This is Fisk's
story. Another, still more interesting
shows how shrewd Drew is. Fisk made
his debut in New York with $25OOOC
drawn from Jordan, Marsh & Co., Of
Boston, and very glad they were to gel
rid of him, Boston business men say. He
was so cunning that they were afraid OF
him, and yet he emerged from Drew's
office without cent. He always de.
clared that Drew had cheated him out Of
$3.50, 900, and remained a bitter enemy
of that venerable man until Stokes pis
tol brought his strange career to stop

OUR FARMING INTERESTS.

After all the American farmer has
much to be thankful for. We are aware
that his produce does not bring the fig
ures it did some years ago. But there
has been corresponding decrease in all
he buys of the merchant and trades
man. This applies to all he eats and
wears, as well as to his farm machinery,
etc. We believe he really has less to
complain of than any other class. If
his business is depressed, he must re-
collect that other branches are more so.
Agriculture is the foundation of every
thing in this country, and statistics show
that for several years in succession the
business of cultivating the soil has been
more successful than almost any other.
The farmers have rcaped good crops
and found ready markets. Cotton and
wooden goods have waited for pur-
chasers, but wheat and corn, large as is
the supply, have been IN demand. Our
country has become the granary of the
world, in larger sense than Egypt was
once the granary of the Roman empire.
The development of our agricultural
resources within the last ten years is
wonderful. There is nothing like it in
the history OF the world. In 1870 the
wheat crop of the country was $4,000.
600 bushels, the corn 37S, 600, 900 bushels,
and the cotton 100000 bales. This
year 1t is estimated that the cotton crop
will reach 100000 bales, the wheat
400, 0OO, 900 bushels, the corn 400, COO.
600 bushels. These immense crops are
feeding the millions of the world, and
paying the debts the country owes "a
European capitalists Since 1872 it is
estimated that $500, 100000 OF govern
ment bonds have been returned from
Europe, leaving only $1,000, COZ, 900 still
held there. Considering all things We
do not know but that farmers have
about as much to be thankful for as any

A detailed report Of the condition OF
trade and industry in Massachusetts,,
printed recently in the New York Herald,
furnishes ground for the belief that bnsi,
nessis actually reviving. Nearly all the
cotton mills are again at work and wa
ges are fair While competition is keen
and prices low, the market is said to be
larger than ever before. An almost
equally good report is made in regard to
wooden goods ana the boot and shoe
trade. Altogether the outlook is very
bright.
